Hi, Guys, I'm Kysito.
Thanks to my Stock Nvidia card, I just aquired this game. I can't join servers, but I have played 1 on 1 with a couple of people, by simply consoling a map. Hope to see you guys In game sometime soon. (Go easy on me) This is my first time playing an online MP FPS, and I'm still not very good. I love SLAM traps, but however often forget about tem, and kill myself with them.

Welcome man, glad to have you. This game is one of the best FPS games around right now, it just takes some time to learn it well.
To help with the slams, load up a map and find what you think is the sneakiest location likely to get kills, then only slam in that spot and avoid going there, or plant them low enough and jump over that spot every time, regardless of whether you remember planting one or not.

Thanks. I also love Overwatch, but hate how it has no SLAMS.

Overwatch has slams, in fact its one of the most slam'ed maps ever.
Walk into the second level of the map and look opposite the two barrels near the wall.
Slamming the stairs up to the RPG is a common strategy.

Hey! Welcome to the community!
This is defiently one of the best online FPS's ever created. It takes a little while to learn, but once you do its hard to find a game that matches the gameplay found in hl2dm. I hope you enjoy!
Overwatch is one of my fav maps to SLAM on. I have made some really elabrate SLAM traps in the stairs leading to RPG.

Now that I have the SLAMs found, I've been goofing off with them, filling every passageway with almost solid laser beams except for ducking room. My SLAMming also got me a clan. and I am now <RC> Kysito.

Try connecting to a public server using your console and tell us what it says. Enter:
connect 208.146.44.37:27015

It worked? Looks like you can access public servers fine then.

Well, it seems to work Sporadically... Sometimes it does, sometimes it locks up...
