Like the subject says, whats your longest time spent playing a game online in one sitting and what game (or games) was it? I'll start by telling mine:

My longest time playing games online on one sitting is 16 hours (started: 9am, endet 12pm). I was alone at home, it was raining outside and I had absolutely nothing better to do, so I thought I'd play some games. I started my own personal "gameathon" with 7 hours of Team Fortress 2 (played whole time as spy) and endet it with 9 hour Battlefield 2 fragfest. On TF2 I played on random servers but on BF2 I mostly played on "2F4Y.com" and "super@infantry.clan" servers and before I went to sleep I switched to SF and played 2 hours on "Battlefield Gotland SF all maps" server. On the last round on Gotland server before going to bed, I got 48 kills and only 4 deaths; thanks to the combination of coke and many varieties of energy drinks and drowsiness . Right before the round endet (using sniper kit) , I was out of ammo on pistol, rifle, nades and clays; I just took my knife and went berserk (killing 7 guys in the process ). Nice way to end it .

I hope someone replies

LOL

Sounds like you have an addiction issue with FPS games!!

NOT!!

That was just one time. I usually play max 4 hours per day. And I usually have days when I dont play any games at all (usually 2-3 days in week). I have a life too, you know.

PS: If I do have addiction issues with FPS, its mostly BF2:s fault. I'll sue DICE to pay my therapy and rehab sessions

PSS: You didnt tell yours

Hehe, nice run.

When I have a day at home where the misses is out of the house I often take such runs of gaming also. It's been a while though - she doesn't go out enough

Just joking with you mate.

Nice set of games there, and glad you finished off with BF2.

My longest run is only about 3 hours - one single round on Dragon Valley with only 3 on each side and it was a HUGE round for scores as well - long before the 300 point limit.

Yup, I reckon BF2 can be addictive, especially when you have long winter nights like we do in Shetland...

Do you count LAN parties? If you do i've done 32 hours without sleep, and that was a total blast, was about 3-4 hours CSS, quite a few TF2, and a 8 hours game on Sup Com (aka Supreme Commander). And a good seesion on Left 4 Dead. Granted there were a few short breaks to stick some food in the mircowave, but longest most of us stopped was 15 mins and that was only a few times.

If it's just online i've done 20 hours before, again a few short breaks for food or toilet. And that was playing the good ole' CoD:UO loved that game, was the only game i've played more than bf2. Was a tournament battle online, and i was CinC for that campaign, so made me wanna play alot more than i should of.

I cant do very much now without getting bored, or annoyed, 4 hours is about my max now in one sitting, and that is only ever on weekends.

And like we have here in Finland. Seriously, winters here are loooooooong. Sux.

But all hail to the global warming

Yeah I think LAN parties count. But that is seriously long gameathon, you doubled my score.

From 7pm till 10am (next day), so about 16h. One game, one sever. Counter Strike 1.6 on CSPL server. That night I was alone at home and while I was playing the game I met one crazy guy, had a bunch of laughs with him, and before I noticed, the sun was shining on my keyboard.

Now I often play up to 5h, mostly BF series.

Geez you guys are hardcore. If I spent 32 hrs playing a game on my comp, my mom would friggen kill me!! She already gets mad enough when it gets up to 3-4 hrs!!


So the 300 point limit is true, eh? Does this limit also count for commanders? I can't seem to get a straight answer from anyone with this. I just need another 3000 points for commander until I get my war college badge, but with some of these I/O servers, I can sometimes manage over 350 pts (after 2x bonus) as commander. So then those just wouldn't count?

Actually, come to think of it, in I/O long round you get 300+ points. That sux.

EA / DICE confirmed the 300 points rule, several weeks ago.

If ANYONE (and I have always assumed that also means the commander) gets 300 points or more in a round then ALL points, all medals, badges and awards for EVERYONE in that round are cancelled.

Ahh, damn. Well to any of the guys on that list there in the picture....my deepest sympathy for your lost points (and mine too) . That's a stupid rule IMO. I should've just gone and sat at our main for the last 15 min of the map (or commit 32 suicides).

Theres a 300 point limit on BF2??!! Since when?? I havent heard of this before. But now that i have, i've got to say thats one of the most retardet things i've heard when it comes to online FPS games.

EA Games set the limit (in the first week of April) to try and prevent stat padding - obviously not working for some of the pathetic peeps...

There is complete thread on this, on the forum:-
300-points-limit-t6475.html

There is a lot in that post, and even though it starts off with a sarcastic, and negative, comment about my previous clan, the confirmation of the limit is fully talked through and confirmed by several people.

There is a particular post in there from Tom Foster, which says:-

------------------------
I spoke to a guy from DICE about this (bazajaytee- one of the guys working on the patch) and he confirmed that there was a score limit.


Quote:
[14:33] <tomfoster> yeah baza- is the point cap at 300 at the moment?
[14:33] <tomfoster> if it is can you increase that?
[14:33] <@Bazajaytee> Yeah
[14:33] <+Big_Guy> 300 is too low
[14:33] <@Bazajaytee> We will do after 1.5 is out


He also said after this (although I did not think to save the quote) that if this limit was exceeded then THAT PLAYER ONLY would not have their stats processed for that round- as well as trying to cut down on statspadding, it was an effort to prevent modded servers messing up the leaderboards.

I believe it is a result of this... http://www.battlefield.ea.com/battlefie ... ryid=27924

I don't know why EA would say there is no such limit- maybe that's just their customer service for you!
------------------------

Although the EA guy said only the player themselves would lose their points, we know, from personal experience, that ALL players in that round lose all their score for that round.

Please read the posts, they will explain it all.
