The drink driving thread :)

britboy4321 · 19 Nov 2010 at 12:39

Anyone fancy a multi-player on F1 2010 tonight (or Dirt 2?) (starting, say, midnight) with the condition you've got to drink at least 8 cans of something alcoholic before we start? Or get to a level which you hand on heart would describe yourself as 'pretty slaughtered'?

It may be funny as we all swerve around the track playing like total donkey retards, it'd almost be interesting to see how we do when wasted .. how much off our normal pace we are .. so treat this as a serious scientific study if you want

!

The one rule: NO QUITTING EARLY if you crash out. I reckon we'll all be crashing out, so it'll be no fun if after corner 2 we only have 2 people that haven't quit ...

Just a thought?

Britters ..

OK read as 'Enough pints so you consider your driving will be considerably impared, but you can actually get the game booted up and play'

I normally do this on any multiplayer games, it's funny seeing you team get killed off and you think it's funny but your team members get peed off cause your not playing the game properly.

I use to drink JD but cant I hate lager any ways the only drink I have is Guinness extra cold and I normally only ever have one as that to makes me ill.

If I was a horse I would have been shot many moons ago

its the normal way i play, doesnt seem to slow me down too much, its on fps games that drinking destroys me.

Erm last time I remember drinking and PC gaming we kinda had a fault with one of the PC's we networked up (before we al got drunk) and whilst playing Quake II one of the guys feel off his chair and knocked the PC on the floor..

Thinking we could fix it whilst we were all pretty much 'tanked' one of the guys vomitted in the PC just as i took the side panel off...

TBH we were all wrecked and left it and went to sleep. I think I remember waking up with a keyboard stuck to the side of my face, and the whole room stunk..

Nah, we was all young and stupid - sadly the PC that got trashed, well was trashed. He wasn't a happy chap for weeks after that. Can't blame him.

Anyhow, playing games whilst drunk can seem like fun, but it can lol end up costing a bit of money. and friendships.!!

It is a known fact amongst my regular gaming buddies that I improve on games like BF2, BC2 & MoH when I drink. Up to a point anyway,

0 to 1/4 bottle of vodka = ok
1/4 to 1/2 bottle of vodka = getting better
1/2 to 5/8 of a bottle = peak!

Then goes downhill. My peak window as you can see is very small.

me too.

Drink gaming is loads of fun and I do it often (though it does impair my skill and ability).

As soon as I have any alcohol at all, I realise how boring gaming is and want to go and do something more interesting.

Used to have a few drinks in MMO pubs with guild mates, obviously we'd all be drinking IRL at the same time. We had a great guild event in Warcraft where we got drunk, stripped down to peasant trousers and boxed in Booty Bay.

I only game whilst high, I've learnt to play that way if I try play BC2 or any FPS game whilst not under the influence, I suck.
Think its slows my play down a little and really helps my K/D as Im not running round like a headless chicken chasing anything that moves.

I'd be up for this as a none drinker 2 cans and Im telling everyone "how much I love them" anyway Sound like a cheap night in

that could be a laugh.
