ReadingLAN organise one day and weekend LAN events, we are intending to have one day events again this autumn and a weekend event located 20 miles or so from the Uni (transport provided) in the Spring term. Check for the latest news at www.readinglan.com.

The website is currently limited after someone played with the database and we had to re design the site. Rest assured we are stilol active and dates for our first events sohuld be posted in the next 2-3weeks when we have bookings confirmed.

Oh and we do play CS.

=D woooo CS-tastic

I too play CS :s-smilie:

ource [and can play CS 1.6 and CZ]...I heard it mentioned that after meal times in one hall, some guys would play some CS together [I assume in their own rooms, just agreeing on one particular server to play on.]

I think the real question is - do the readinglan guys play anything other than CS? (I really hope the answer's yes...)

Yes, we play CS but it's not our favourite, most of us are UT2004/Deathball/BF2 oh and Quake 3 junkies :smile:

We play whatever there is demand for, Dawn of War was popular last event and we had a bit of a Total Anhiliation comeback which was a laugh.

It certainly did remind me of the good old days of the null modem cable :smile:

Join the forums, we often organise net games or have the RL server running (if we finally upgrade the ram).

For CS do you need a good Graphics card or will a Dell Dimention 4700's G Card work?
Thanks

Depends what card you have in that system of yours... If it's Dell's onboard one, then it may pull CS, but definitely will struggle with CS :s-smilie:

I haven't played CS in about 7 years... wow can it really have been out that long?!

I'm not very good at first person shoot them ups due to eye problems, I tend to prefer MMORPGs instead.
