Looking for a good multiplayer game for me and some friends to play over a network. Having been through loads of games I cant think of any to try. So far been through the following.

Command & Conquer 3 + Kane's Wrath - Cant seem to enjoy this as it seems that its all just about tech up and spam superweapons/units. We were big fans of Red Alert 2 which was great for tank rushes and the units seemed very balanced, however cnc3 just doesnt do it for us. Still waiting for RA3

Supreme Commander - I think this is a great game but sadly not everyone can run it very well.

Company of Heroes - Only played the original v1.0. Is the expansion worth getting? any improvements?

World of Warcraft - Played this since release but we quit that and dont want to return. Currently waiting for Warhammer Online as the closed beta was good. Not really interested in AOC

Dawn of War - Loved this game at release and the first two expansions, but soulstorm was pretty rubbish and added nothing new really.

Also played CS:S, DOD:S, TF2 etc... but not everyone enjoys them.

So basically can anyone suggest something worthwhile to try? genre doesnt really matter as long as it has a good multiplayer for a LAN and Internet.
 
BF2.
64 man Infantry only servers are my gaming Heaven.
I know loads of guys that just fill squads with there mates & have a Blast, I play with Strangers & have Brillaint fun so with your mates would be Awesome. You can lock the squad as well so it's not invaded by strangers & chat via voip.
Perfect choice if you ask me.
 
Medieval 2 total war?

Not really tried it myself in multiplayer but it seems like it could be fun, I understand the players get allocated points to spend on armies and you can then pit these against eachother or the AI

Warcraft 3 - has some great fun maps you can play, tower defences and such, good for a lark :)

I am really, REALLY wanting a new BF to come out on the PC. BF2 was (still is in your books) the best online game ever. BF2142 just didn't have the same appeal.

Anyone know if/when the next one is due out? One similar to BF2 I mean (not cartoony, or small scale).
