Community News  LoxTech to Sponsor TFF!


Thats right! LoxTech-Gaming Community is set to sponsor The Frag Factory LAN community. An agreement has been made where LoxTech will sponsor TFF a TF2 server for internet game meetings outside of the LAN weekends. So far I am waiting to hear feedback on the level of interest in this from the TFF community, however these gaming nights are open to the public to join in for some TF2 fun! At the moment Tuesday nights are looking the most promising for holding this weekly event, but stay tuned for updates!

Please note: This is NOT an LGC Event. All adminship etc remains with myself and TFF.

Community News  Aliens vs Predator


Aliens vs Predator™ is an entirely new title for PC and high-definition consoles from acclaimed British developer Rebellion, the team behind the 1999 original PC gaming classic.

Bringing the legendary war between two of science-fiction’s most popular characters to FPS fans, AvP delivers three outstanding single player campaigns and provides untold hours of unique 3-way multiplayer gaming.

Experience distinctly new and thrilling first person gameplay as you survive, hunt and prey in the deadly jungles and swamps surrounding the damned colony of Freya’s Prospect.

- As the Marine, you’ll experience a claustrophobic and terrifying experience where light is your friend, but there’s never enough. However, the United States Marine Corps are humanity’s last line of defence, and as such they are armed to the teeth with the very latest in high explosive and automatic weaponry.

- As the Predator, you will stalk from the shadows and from above, passing athletically through the treetops to ambush your victims. Although equipped with an array of powerful, exotic weapons and tracking equipment, honour ultimately dictates that you must get in close and take your trophies face to face.

- As the most deadly species in the universe, the Alien offers you the chance to play as the very stuff of nightmares - the monster in the dark swarming forward with countless others, jaws like a steel trap and claws like blades.

- Play all sides off against each other in a series of unique 3-way online modes and go tooth-to-claw-to-pulse rifle in the reinvention of one of multiplayer gaming’s defining moments.

Community News  Battlefield: Bad Company 2
http://mmomfg.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/battlefield-bad-company-2.jpg


Set in the near future, the Battlefield: Bad Company single-player campaign drops gamers behind enemy lines as part of a squad of four soldiers - risking it all to go AWOL on a personal quest. Featuring a dramatic storyline flavoured with attitude, Battlefield: Bad Company leads gamers far from the traditional frontlines on a wild ride with a group of renegade soldiers who decide that sometimes the gratitude of a nation just isn’t enough.

The Battlefield: Bad Company cinematic single-player experience captures the freedom and intensity of the Battlefield series’ multiplayer sandbox gameplay in a dynamic world where nearly everything is destructible. Players have total freedom to be daring and innovative, adapting to and tackling challenges in unexpected Battlefield-style ways. Create sniping positions by blowing out a piece of a wall or drive your tank straight through a small house. The ever-changing battlefield forces players, their teammates and enemies to react accordingly.

The game also features the all new, objective based multiplayer game mode "Gold Rush", supporting 24 players online. Play as attackers and defenders and make full use of the tactical destruction as well as the unique vehicle experience of Battlefield: Bad Company.

Battlefield: Bad Company is the first game built from the ground up for next-generation consoles using DICE’s bleeding-edge Frostbite game engine, delivering unrivalled graphics, effects and gameplay.

Community News  New Servers!
That's right LGC now have 2 more game-servers online and ready to accept clients! These servers are both Garry's Mod servers, one if which is hosted on phoenix and created by yours truly, and the 2nd was donated by .#LGC| United Kingdom Steel and [XYT]Scotty. The first one is a construct server, and is password protected (LGC community members only. Password will be available in the private clan forums and given to trusted community members.). The idea being it's more of a muck around server, building stuff and having a laugh. The 2nd server is a public stranded mod server, where players are stranded on islands and have to do everything from eat/drink to building tools and shelters!

A big thank you to United Kingdom Steel and Scotty for their donation to the community!

Server IP's can be found on the servers page, using the link at the top or to the left of this page.

EVE Online Division  Eve Online Update > Dominion 1.1
Updates to Eve Online have been recently released. Major changes include:

Ships
· Motherships are a thing of the past and are now known as Super Carriers. These frontline behemoths will retain their former hulls which are the Aeon (Amarr), Hel (Minmatar), Nyx (Gallente) and Wyvern (Caldari). Super Carriers will receive a massive boost to hit points and can now field Fighter Bombers.
Drones
· New fighter bomber drones have been added which can be used by Super Carriers. Fighter Bombers have to be directly controlled by the Super Carrier’s pilot, unlike standard fighters, and cannot be delegated to anyone else. They are meaner versions of fighters with more hit points and field compact citadel torpedoes against their targets. Blueprints for the new bombers will be available from CreoDron stations.
Skills
· The Fighter Bomber skill book has now been seeded and will need to be trained in order for Super Carrier pilots to deploy Fighter Bombers.
EVE Voice, Mail & Chat
· Voice fonts have now been added to EVE Voice. This new feature will allow you to alter your voice during chat to increase or lower pitch or to change from male to female voices. This is certainly not going to be abused in any way smiling

CSS Division  New CSS Division Leader!
Netherlands TheDragon will hereby be the new CSS division leader, following the great efforts recently to populate our 24/7 Office server. At a time where I was thinking it would be best to just let the CSS division whittle away, as LGC move on to MW2 and continue in L4D(2), it dawned on me that there still is potential for this division should a dedicated leader who doesn't play our other games be appointed to the position. Netherlands TheDragon has full command over the CSS division like any other division leader, and should be respected as such (which i know you all will do smiling ).

In a press statement, Netherlands TheDragon told LGC news that he wants to bring the css division back to life, and recruit members that will be loyal and dedicated to the community.

Sorry to the other applicant for not getting this opportunity, but your interest has been noted and you will be appointed Assistant Division Leader, who's role it will be to support Netherlands TheDragon in his work.

.#LGC| Clan  Open Registrations
The deadline has been passed for previous clan members to re-register on the new site since its unfortunate loss last year. As i said in my forum post, anyone that wasn't registered up until this point has now been deemed inactive, and so will have to re-register on the site, and make an application to the in-house clans within our growing community like any other applicant.

Many thanks to those you have already done so. Your continued support throughout this dark phase has been outstanding, and I'd like to thank you for that on behalf of the LGC leadership. - eKKo
