Aplified CTF? What?

P.S. I hate that map


Pretty sure it's in the rotation. Do you honestly dislike Amplified?
It's ok, but I can't imagine CTF on that map. It's not elevated enough for flag. It's too small. Onslaught has more height to flag caps, ect.

Next two weeks are sort of bad for me coz of exams as well. I usually still have a couple hours a day though.

Yeah, I have exams too. Looks like it could take a while to get the teams officially set up. Does everyone think they should get some time to practice? 2 weeks would probably be fair.

Yeah, we can just scrim for two weeks like a preseason or something. Maybe this can be used to fix teams if it isn't competitive (one team dominating everyone).

Good idea. This should make balance easy. Like I said, this is going to take some work, but if everyone is patient, it could be a good time. Thanks for giving me such a big response.

That's true. I prefer Onslaught for CTF, but Amplified for Slayer.

there are lots more that could play though! These are the only ones that I've sent a message to.


edit: I think a trial period to see what is the best way to do this is a good idea.

Yep do a trial period to see if the teams are balanced. Biggest issue is going to be timezones :X, let's see how that works out.

Taking weapons. I think we should test the weapons and see how long they take to kill on MLG. I understand if people don't want them in, but I just like my H3 sandbox. Obviously we wouldn't have to put them on every map. Just where it makes sense and doesn't break the map.

Non-MLG weapons to give a shot (in order of my opinion):
1. SMG
2. Beam Rifle
3. Brute Shot
4. AR
5. Magnum

The canadian profession league had one clip ARs. Everything from clip size, spawn rate, to map location would obviously have to be thought out if we include anything different. Again, it's fine if people are against it. Those are just weapons that I find fun to use.

I'm against this sorry :( I wouldn't mind it too much, but I would rather play "default" MLG

Probably. I just want the teams to be as balanced as possible. The hardest things to figure are going to be team balance and actual play time.

I'll do some experimentation in Customs and get back to you.

Heck yeah, needler!

Before everyone loses all respect for me, that WAS a joke. I'll do some checking in customs to see if we should add some weapons or not. I'm going to be very careful and test everything before saying yes, though. It can't hurt to try, but I want to make sure that it doesn't have a drastic change on the gameplay.

I'll make a new thread specifically about the team distribution and game times once we get the last few signups. I'm thinking that, since the games will be spread out over a few weeks or more, every team should play every other team in a single set of 5 games. First to 3 wins gets a point. The team with the most points at the end of the season wins. However, to keep it fun, there is no "loser's bracket". Everyone just plays each other. Looks like we'll have 5 teams of 4 if we get 1 more player. Anyone have a friend or friend+full team of 4/3 that we could get? I cast my vote for teams of 4: I just like the feel of having 4 players.

I certainly have a team of 3. Most of the time a 4th will be easy to get (time/day dependent). A league system would be fun.

Definitely. Remember, we can go as far with this as we want. I'm going to need some help from you guys in this 1st season for sure, though. Once we figure out how to run this it should be easy and a good laugh.

First thought is that timing is going to be the hardest part.

Maybe if people posted when they (and their team) will be available in the coming week, other teams can reply to that asap in order to get something organised a while in advance.

Things can change last minute though, eg going to the pub, so maybe another board where people say they're going to be on for an hour or for the evening, and then teams reply to that?
