1v1 tournament???

[1UnRaTeD1]

hi guys i was wondering if dyn can make 1v1 tounament all good players get a shot. but fav maps be the problem everyone has advantages and some dont cause of certain maps. im gonna give it my best anyone interested? win or lose im just about done with q3 im lost my skill to busy working and hardly playing like i use to..so who ever is up for it plzz reply:)

[Infinity]

im down

[Tripredacus]

Well unrated, sometimes the skill comes and goes. You just have to make sure you don't overdo it. But I agree about the map preferences. Some players are just better at some than others. Not sure why. I think I prefer the more open area type maps, or ones that I can vogon-strafe jump properly... Oh this is the reason I prefer the regular tourney4 instead of the pro, because I don't have to correct for having that big gap on the top across from the armor.

So everyone who is interested could post a list of maps they would play on, there could be tournaments for each map. That might be too complicated in keeping track maybe... or maybe even use the tier system that the single player uses.

It's no problem, we can run additional server for this, but i suggest other admins get involved. I will take care of technical aspects.

im so down for this.. 1v1 is my favorite!

ill play whatever except space.. slows my comp down.

also agree with trip, some nights im on and cant be touched.. some i cant get into it as well

[1UnRaTeD1]

ok i assume we need a good week of warm up before we start...but id rather it be in the weekened when we do 1v1 tournament

If you guys are going to do this i suggest posting that you want to participate and desired map rotation. that way we know who is coming and the most popular maps so we can make a map rotation for this. Also is this going to be INSTA or FFA? These thing need to be known first.

[1UnRaTeD1]

FFA here insta gets boring sometimes. dats just me yes apoc your right we need some people to join and warm up for event.
all players if you aint scared step up.. or washup cause its gonna get messy!!!!!

[Apocalypse]

Is anyone else interested in this? If so post here.

[Infinity]

this guy is this tourny just for fun? or are we gonna put something cool as a winner takes type thing

make everyone play from identical computers, allowing only app configurations in a LAN party scenario and you might have a realistic tournament. otherwise, i can already tell you who would win.

Let's have a lan party, then.
Everyone pile into the Deaners basement. (just be mindful of the blood & feces on the couch)

And this could be done with a Punk Buster Script. We could make it so you can't even change simple things like FOV. If any guidlines for rules are needed post them here.

does that mean network cards with lookahead aren't allowed?

[craij]

that means that you (absolutgastrointestinalupset) must play on 56k modem

Now this is sounding better.

[IJ]

Will it be open to spectators too?

[craij]

Great question.

no. no its not.

if i cant use fov then i wont play. in order for my comp to run this game at anything above 10 fps i have to turn down resolution to 512x384.. fov is set at 118 to make it playable

seriously, i can keep up with ag quite well in insta (as long as i dont get frustrated lol) using a 400mhz cpu, 8mb video card and a 1.5mb internet connection.. what are you complaining about?

lets not get too serious here guys, just a tourney for fun. my suggestion would be having a couple days of just 1v1'ing eachother to get some practice in

agreed. hardware is largely a non-issue.

[1UnRaTeD1]

ahhh so we got more peeps in... good, now about the fov what would be the max? yo infinity its just for fun. nothing no winning trophy its my last game unless someone has something to give the winner.

craij does have a point though.. FFA or INSTA it doesnt matter the really good railers will rise above. i know ill only be using rail.. its really all i use these days.

maybe we could have 2 tourneys.. like a regular one, anything goes.. and one with rail disabled. i think that would be interesting and level the playing field.

[Tripredacus]

There is a difference in insta vs ffa. For me in ffa I use the rocket to move around but in insta that option is not there. Still vogon is too fast (maps are too small) to jump in but even this isn't a complaint.

But since this is a sign-up type thing, what about custom maps? I know other players have brought this up before, but this might be a good opportunity for those who want customs. A lot of customs are not made for tourney so keep that in mind.

[1UnRaTeD1]

yes dat helps to.. custom maps like the ones in vogon pak that they made i still got tose in ext hdd
now how do we make a sign up sheet ??

I hear they also have to take reverse steroids to slow them down even more.

Steroid Olympics vs Non-Steroid Olympics

Rail-Only tourney (I know that final already) vs Gauntlet tourney (best not let Ms G in this one)

[AG]

i'll be surprised if this even happens

everyone will argue about how to dumb down the settings and which custom maps to use then not show up for it

[Shurik rus]

I have 3vs3 tournament!! RUS team vs ALL
