 |
|
hey i'm interested in playing in the cup but man.... why are rounds 1,2,3 all on dod_kalt? there are much better choices out there like anzio avalanche, donner, etc. i mean kalt's tollerable for one night but kinda gets boring after a while don't you think?

Although i like kalt i actually think it would be good to change it up after each round. maybe kalt for round 1, then avalanche for round 2, and so on. Well i guess we just need jfet to decide.

| this was heavily discussed before choosing all kalt. reason is if we do maps like anzio or avalanche, i KNOW the losing teams will whine and moan because they had the 'less fair' team between axis and allies. kalt is very even between the two, so we choose that. if we had more time and more people interested *hinthint* i would have dont it RIGHT and made every match both players on axis AND allies. maybe next time...if there is one. just need people to show interest. |

I guess I was one of the main driving forces having only Kalt. The reason is that the map is as close to equal for both sides. For this cup it is single knock-out. If the cup catches on and we get massive interest then we would consider revising that decision. I would like to see a large turnout and use different maps with each team playing two rounds, one on each side of said map. This would involve far more planning etc but would be worth the effort if indeed turnout was available. Lets see how this one goes and maybe we'll have another with the change.

Then you have the issue of people not d-loading them (some will not due to laziness). Or, you'll have people who wait until 10 minutes before their match to d-load the map and they are late. etc etc etc.
The easier things are to follow, the more turnout you'll have. I could be wrong though. People are fickle around here when it comes to custom maps. Most reject them totally while others thrive on them.

I saw you were on Hill classic. I didn't have the map and looked at the maps in the file section here. It was not there. If you put dod_hill_classic in the download section here I will get it.
It would be fun to have a match on legoland2.  |

legoland is great. tv7 is supposed to have the fast download enabled so you dont need to install it first, but its not working. ill do one or the other (in files section or get fast download workign). i have about 100 megs of custom maps installed on tv7 (i just have yet to add them to the changelevel menu in amx). |

actually, i was under the impression that teams would play as both axis and allies for each match. it makes more sense now. also has anyone considered advertising at the dodmod forums? might bring in more ppl to play even if they arent ville regulars
