vimms lair, just google it, search for xbox games, extract the game once downloaded and then come back to the video where he shows finding the game and starting it
Funny i choose this game from the game store as a kid with my parents but i never actually played it because i was to young and didnt understand how to play. So i played it once and never saw the game again until now.
Wow its a pretty big upgrade from the PSP game content wise and that game was already awesome! You can literally play as almost anyone that appeared it seems like even old man coach kamogawa lmao
i often still play Sven but i'm always disappointed as whenever i look at the servers there's barely like 3 people on one server. pretty sad to see sven in such state, especially beacuse i was introduced to it not a very long time ago and i'm still a newcomer.
Sniper (lead “dev” who doesn’t code) screwed everyone, in my 1 interaction with him he was nothing but a prick, and I wasn’t even talking directly to him
It's June 2024 and I still play thing game, can't get over its simplicity and compatibility with new systems and hardware. As far as I understand, Sven devs modified and massively improved the overall compatibility and stability of this game's old "goldsrc" engine. It's the same goldsrc as the original HL1, but improved, which still makes the game relevant to players that simply like nostalgic campaign games with friends. I'm in Middle East, and I play only on European servers because the less ping the better the experience, and the activity there is quite good actually. some servers have 3~5 players, other bigger servers like Misfire usually have about 15 players during evening/night times around Eu/ME, which to be fair is a LOT because some custom campaign maps have too many tight spaces to move around especially in indoors-only maps. This game doesn't have thousands of players, but the few hundreds of players that still do are basically loyal to this game and we'll always stick around and remember each other's names and make fun conversations while making complete chaos in maps and breaking scripts and having a laugh at every fail moments we witness. This alone is worth to stick around.
Interesting note: Steam Charts says that Sven peaks at around 500~600 players in the last few months, so considering the fact that every server is only good enough to host about 20~30 players, that makes it at least 17 (quite full) servers globally. That's impressive for a mod that was released in 1999. I don't think the game's dead. 😅
Sven Co-op team member here (Adambean/AdamR), thanks for the video. The player counts contradict this entirely. (Take a look at the charts from SteamDB from 2016 onwards.) Apart from the initial surge for the Steam release in 2016 and two random bumps (March 2020 for the pandemic and November 2023 for "reasons") the player count has been very flat/stable for about 8 years. We're also still working on updates for this game today. To answer your point about servers being empty, that's not unusual. Other watchers have pointed out that this game is better played privately with people you know instead of in public, or at the very least in a public community of familiar faces, which the server browser doesn't reveal. This aspect about Sven Co-op has always been true.
i play sven not to just play with buddies "i dont have buddies" but to play half life and eventually get the hell out bcuz i got scared of some random alligator or smth
Xenia won't let me play skate 3, it launches the game correctly but i can't get past the intro and get to actual gameplay, instead it just open an error window that says : <Nested Exception Encountered> Faulting thread name I am using a Lenovo Legion Go Handheld device with Windows 11 and Emudeck/emulationstation.
