I've been eyeing DRH BI3 since it's in USA and is playable with few players. Sometimes the http://d3.descent.cx/ tracker can't find the server so I hope the problem gets fixed before I try to round up people for a match. In the meantime there's always Overload Multiplayer.

I'd really enjoy playing some d3, it's been way too long for me and I miss it terribly.
I hope you guys have been doing well, was just looking through the demo post and lamented that I had so many good demos at one point and failed to upload them.
Still, there's a few pilots still around who could post some on YouTube or on a server so we could watch some when we can't play.
Hope I can play soon, I have a machine that will run it, just need to see if it'll boot up, either way hope you guys stay well and maybe I'll see you in the mines soon!

D3 was a fond time for me too, I'll be lurking around. Now people are getting their 6DoF fix in Overload. Zero and Birds just won a 2v2 tourney. You should roll up and bring the heat.

I haven't played any of the Descent games in a very long time. Sometimes I kind of miss it.

Yes, Descent 3. I'm up for Monsterball or CTF in Varicose Veins :) . Anarchy, you guys choose any level and I will play it. That goes along with any game type.

What's sad is I have a great rig for gaming but a sucky monitor for playing any descent game or overload, I would've liked to have found a 144hz crt back when I was playing a little bit but I haven't been so lucky yet, I could potentially get back in but I'd have to get everything to my taste if I was going to get back into it, tired of settling for using optic mice and so forth (heh) I still say we should have maybe a descentbb youtube channel where demos could be uploaded as videos so we could maybe get some attention back to these games and show our stuff to the world.
I figure the way we could make it work is we have one person moderate the youtube channel for the demos, while we make a thread for collecting them on the multiplayer forum then record with screen recording software at highest resolution and upload to the channel.
We could have some info to direct the viewers back to dbb along with how to buy descent123/overload and a link to the thread telling them how to get setup.
If anyone thinks this idea is worthwhile let's hear some support.

It's pretty random right now. You'd have to be on Discord tbh or just check the trackers.

Just recently learned from Lothar on Facebook the original Descent is still played today. It's the most played out of the trilogy.

We had 10 player action in Descent 3 that took place in Keg Party, 8 in Athena and 6 in Halcyon back in August. It was blast!! Me and Behemoth would love for u who's reading this to join some games with us, maybe I will talk into DescentMax7930 to host some Monsterball, Entropy and Team Hoard games when he has the time. I'm on Discord Alexander 98 in 6dof fun D1 D2 D3 and DCL servers. Are u itching for some Descent 3 action?
