Hello all....!
I got a PM from meat saying he had trouble registering with the SRA forums, so just incase anyone is missing the details...here is the layout... as of now.
Server Hosted At:
SRA Tournament Server
UNREAL://69.175.244.208:7777
The server is up now on my old box to play on, but I may boot it up on my main machine for the tourney to ensure lag/crash free play.
Maps: 8 (Medium to small, non-standard) All Maps are required to be downloaded before the tourney. If you have herms map packs, you should be fine. DLs will be disabled. Plese Post what maps you would like to see in this thread. Preferably ones that don't get played a lot, but are good.
Players: 10 Max, Min of 4
Rounds: 2
Scorer: Blondie
Frags: 30
Scoring: Best Frag Rate (I think, let BH decide).
How does 1300 MST, (Thats 2000 GMT, do the math
)
Sat Oct 29th
Not to early in the states and not to late in europe for most I think
Currently Signed upto Play are:
|3iGi
Lepoloo
Vette
Scify
DarkMatter
Mahatma (long live the Mah)
MEAT
We have 3 more spots to fill it at 10 players. Sign up here. Sugestions welcome.

I think a good format for tournaments are Elimination matches/games. In each game 1 person (low score) is eliminated. For example, if we have 6 people signed up we have 5 games. In each game someone loses. That leaves 2 people in the last game going head to head. Winner is last guy standing. This way it cuts down on the "luck factor" as I like to call it.
Just a thought?

Sorry but I just have to laugh at the whole idea of a Redeemer match "Tournament". Can this really be done? Or is the winner the person with the best ping and luckiest spawn. ( never mind, we know it is ).

I have to agree with the mouse on this one. And I said it before. It's the person that runs, shoots and hopes, as well as, spawn kills that might win this thing. There is a lot of luck involved in firing into a dark alley hoping to hit something. That is why I think the tournaments, if at all possible, should be elimination matches not winner take all. The Redeemer, as a weapon,
is a guided missle used to seek and hunt out its enemy. But at times, especially at close range, I understand you have to use it just like any other conventional weapon. The over all problem is that a lot of the maps are to small to use the Redeemer as it it meant to be used.

So by what you said neither type of "tornament" is actually what you want as such but either will do what you really want is a match were peeps camp and hunt with the deemer rather that all out action.MEAT wrote:I have to agree with the mouse on this one.

Even if there elimination matches the winner goes through so whats the difference at the end of the day the one that wins wins

Hey
It all counts, "Run and Gun or Hide and Seek". There is skill used both ways. A newb will never be able to show up and run and gun and win. NEVER unless there are only bots playing. The trick is to have enough experience to know when to run and when to hide. All frags count. Yes many may be lucky but run and gun used correctly can be very hard to beat. Note that it is always the same run and gun players that win using that method. There is plenty of talent involved.
~Peace~

I've participated in "last man standing matches" but in sniper mode. In redeemer, if you do such a gaming mode, the guy who's caught in a loop at the first match is the first eliminated without any chance to increase his results in the next map... mmm don't think it's a real fair mode in deemer.MEAT wrote:I have to agree with the mouse on this one.

Something like a total count of frags at the end of the whole maps could be a better way to give low pings a chance (as Mick said)

Re: Hey
Someone who played one day against (N)Trecker (before he became Gizmo... lol) knows pretty well that run and gun wins everytime if you're one of the bests !!! (DI and some others are terrifics run and gunners).Hermskii wrote:It all counts, "Run and Gun or Hide and Seek". There is skill used both ways.

The thing I learned is what you just said Herm : running/gunning or hiding depends of the spawn place, the number of players, the map choice and your acquired skill !!! That's what makes this deemer game very hard to learn and to be good in !!!...

It's like beating a dead horse....can't get ahead. And I know I sound like a broken record here. But what is the purpose of having a guided missle if you're not going to use it as one? We should call this sight Rocket Launcher Insanity because that's how we are using the redeemer. I just don't see the skill in the frantic, shoot in the air, run and gun technique. Oh sure on some of the maps, because of their small size, that is the only way to play and win. I know that and trust me I'll play that way because I have no choice. Hey, maybe that's the real issue here or the real issue only I seem to have is that some of the maps are to small for the redeemer? Or is it that some of you are clueless to the redeemer use as a weapon and you can only run and gun? But I still don't see the challenge or the fun to the run and gun.....just one mans opinion I guess....lol Send all complaints and death threats to meatless@bringtheredeemerback.com
