    Default I'ma tell you aboot.

    I'ma tell you all aboot this hockey game, eh ?

    http://slapshot.gamigo.com/

    In all seriousness, I've stumbled across this game a few times and am having a lot of.. Fun playing it.

    It's odd, me saying FUN in regards to any MMO game out there.

    Now, to get down to the basics of the game it's a MMORPG Hockey game. You can customize your char. with items, and skills. There's three main positions, Center, Wing, and Defender. Defender is a long shot, and generally.. A defender.(It might be Deep, or deepfielder, but I'll call it defender ). Wings, are nimble "point-guard"(For all you basketball fans ;-) ) kind of players. They can score, but can set up defenders for long, and center's for short shots. They score primarily off a quick one timer, and on breakaways. Center, can be played two different ways. You can spam "dribbles" or "Deeks" or whatever you want to call them, and score within a close or far range or rely on One timers and rebounds.

    There's one game mode in rookie(Level 1-5), and that's 2v2.(There's still 1v1, 1v1 computers, 2v2 COmputers, but those are pointless, to me).

    Once you reach level six, you have some new abilities and should know how to play the game decently, so you move onto the next CH where you can 3v3.

    There's multiple playing styles for every position, and you can develope your own way of playing, the game does get "Cheesy" or reptitive when you're spamming one timers, and that's why it's great to switch things up.

    Major downside ? The american population is LOW. There are a decent amount of EU's on(40 or so in it's prime hours). The company seems to have forgotten about the game.

    I decided I'd post here, and try to get it some attention. Maybe one of you mod, admin people would like to try to get an event going between ONRPG and them, to A) Boos the population, Get some ONRPG's some items, C) Show the company there is SOME interest in the game, and maybe put them in a spot to do something with it.

    There's a few people on a vent, that are playing ;

    vent30.gameservers.com
    4679

    I do have admin on this, and I do not advise DO NOT ADVISE you to mess with the GTA'ers, or FSSB players whom do not play Slapshot. Not exactly a kind community.

    Message me(Akki), or YAGBOMB and we'd be more than willing to register you to the vent, and help you get started on slapshot.

    It's a split GTA/FSSB vent, and since the game originated with me and a few other freestylers, we decided we'd use a vent that one of our friends use. You don't NEED to use vent, but if you post your IGN here your odds of playing, apposed to being on vent are much lower.

    If you make a 1-5, I'd be more than willing, and as would other venters to help you level out of that CH. We can teach you the basics, and help you advance in the game.

    Currently, I cannot play due to latency issues I'm having(My internet wire's exposed, and it's raining..) so I may put together some kind of in game list name , or something.

    My in game names are Akki, and Kawai. Both are wings. Again, I can't play until later today, but if you need any help that I can give you in game, I'd be more than willing to give you a hand.

    Hey.. We also play risk and monopoly on this vent..

    RISK AND MONOPOLY MAN, WHO DON'T LIKE RISK ?

    In Game Names ? Vent name ?

    If you do not want to use it, I do have MSN that I can use to help you with

    If these does get some attention, that I'd like it to get I will make myself an x-fire, and try to create a community there, to also help develope the community.

    Well, an MSN would be fine since my xfire is linked to my MSN.
    agitoftw@live.com

    I've just had bad experiences with Vent so I'd rather not get on it. Give it time(a year or two xd) and I'll probably get on it, if this group is still going around.

    Hello, this is Mike(YAGBOM, the ventrilo server owner.

    I'm sorry to hear you've had some bad experiences with other vents but the real truth is that without you at least being in vent (Whether it be in the afk channel or whatever) it will be extremely hard for us to coordinate games and things of that nature.

    We've got a great group of moderators and adminstrators that will assist you if you have any problems with anyone in the ventrilo.

    I mean hell, give it a shot, who knows you might just like it .

    -Mike

    I understand that Vent is important to organize groups and things.
    The only thing keeping me from getting on(ignoring bad experiences), is lack of a headset. Wish I could use my 360 headset. ;-;

    When all is done, you don't have to use vent. With this said, we have an AFK CH you can sit in and do nothing. We would simply PM you if we had enough for a game, or something.

    I currently do not have a headset due to my mic braking however like I said, if you can't or don't wish to use it to that extent, we can try to message you on MSN or Xfire when we can. We'll also, add you in game and try to keep our ties conected.

    There is a club system in the game, however I'm unsure if it works. If it does, it's another great way to stay connected.

    If there's some option to turn your mic on in Vent I'd get on it. I have a mic built into my laptop and it sometimes picks..uh, "unnecessary" noises.

    But for now, can you go ahead and add me on MSN?

    Yes, I am not on MSN atm but I'll add you. I advise you add boston celtic, seeing as I'm doing some writeups right now.

    There's a "push to talk" feature on vent. You press a key on your keyboard, and you speak when that key is pressed and we'll all hear you

    This is gay-ay-ay. It won't let me log in even when I have an account. It keeps saying invalid log in.

    The more I play, the more I wish this game was populated.

    I'm having a blast, we've welcomed a few new members to our vent family and are still looking to add more.

    I may record some games, and make a montage just the sake of advertising the name a little.
