hi everyone. didn't even realize this forum was even running... haven't checked back in so long.

i come in to chaos now and again 

just came back to say hi.

<div>The council has started discussing the possibility of a new pro map. Although most are reluctant I think we at least give it a chance to see what we can come up with and so I ask the public to see if there's anyone out there who is willing to produce a map that could be considered as a future league map.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>To get it started I have submitted two maps which hallu has put up in test arenas. We also have the maps that was submitted for a pro map contest in 2001 but most if not all of those where rejected by the general public. I have attached them along with my maps to this forum post if anyone is interested.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>?go 4v4arc1</div>
<div></div>
<div>This is a new map. It has a fair amount of open space and mostly familiar structures.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>?go 4v4arcwide</div>
<div></div>
<div>This is a rather old map, 2006 I think, that has been up and tested in prac arenas before.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you are interested in making a map feel free to contact me if you need help getting started. If you are set on your own and want to submit a map, contact hallu and I'm sure he can help put it up for a test run.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please use this thread to post comments about the maps. I will keep this updated if or when we receive new submissions. We'll let this run it's coarse and at the end of the season, if we have one or more submissions with a general approval, it will be taken up for further discussion in the council. If after this everyone thinks we should keep the same map we will try again in another 10 years.</div>

Hiya all for those who r interested , (golden blaster here) I pmed all of the cr members i remembered, Some good players might return, we just wait and see

Specific to this game type :


I think the Green rewards for a win are way to high across the board.


I think that we've removed a very important balance to this game type - in that ships on the

winning team are not reset after a win. This in turn makes the game self sustaining and self perpetuating. 

And allows active flaggers to basically avoid the rest of the zone for the most part while remaining highly powerful.


It's odd that we stop 'green sharing' at 100bty for 'normal CZ game play' but if you're on a freq with a flagger, and never touch a flag, or help kill a flagger, or even see the flagger on your freq while they flag - you get a rediculous reward too.


...meanwhile, everone that doesn't flag is left with the wonky nature of greening and ship cycles on spawn... flags are EASY to find, and what they reward, absolute.  No guessing 'will that be the rep I so desparately need' - it'll be a rep, and 2 more reps, and damn near 3 of everything else...even for low flag point wins.


And the answer here cannot be "then flag" , because then, we're a "flagging zone" - and that undoes all the work to shoehorn flagging into CZ as a "play style" like it's NOT its 'own game type with its own inherant play styles'.

 

I don't even think we use the right type of flag game in here... we should have a game with periodic rewards, that rewards flag points only based on how long you can hold a flag while getting the needed kill stats to keep your timer refreshed and otherwise being part of the active play in the zone.


Right now, our game encourages avoiding 98% of Chaos, and rewards well for doing so..


...there are a lot of things we can do is basically what I'm saying... I don't think the flag game We currently employ serves the goals of Chaos very well to put it bluntly.


I think we can do better.


What about You?


 

Some of you have some.

3pm:

EGO vs. Backarrow

Beastfu vs. Flying Doctors

 

4pm:

Critical Mass vs. Llamas

Discombobulate vs. SFE

 

Port Llast and Assassins still haven't said anything about their participation in season 35. Outlaws are totally super prepared.

A1 still in the works

While we are done with 4vs4, can we have dueling league? 2vs2 league? any?
