I signed up early Jan 2002. I only heard about the game in December when a mate linked me to the Omaha SP demo. It looked awesome but I wasn't chomping at the bit to play it.

So, just after Christmas 2001, we DL the MP demo of Stalingrad and I started a server just for us two.

I remember vividly how, upon loading the map for the first time, it all seemed much larger and darker than it actually is. It seemed like a maze of interconnected rooms and I could hardly see anything until I turned up the brightness.

I remember playing snipers until we realised shotguns were quite fun. I tried a few live servers and slowly got bored of DM until all of a sudden out came the Hunt.

We played that, started getting better at SMG, my mate at sniper and then we started getting hooked.

We came across mohmatch but that seemed a really pedestrian site. Then he showed me aa.com.

Within a week I was in my first flame war about cheating before the game was even out.

/sigh

Memories.
