Well it's time for a tourney. This an FFA for ROTR. Here is the ladder of maps:
1. 1st match: seven star assault. 2. 2nd match: Tournament city 3. 3rd match: mountain guns 4. quarter finals: tournament urban 5. semi finals: flash effect 6. finals: tournament desert As with almost everything there are rules: 1. The most important rule, TREAT OTHER PLAYERS WITH RESPECT (Yes you can blow up all of there buildings, thats different). I don't care if another player has destroyed your base, just treat players with respect. 2. There will be NO swear/cuss/curse words. I don't care if a player has just destroyed your 40 overlords rush. This is NOT a bad mouth convention. 3. There will be NO exploiting bugs/glitches etc. And when I watch your game I will know when you start getting 50 overlords at a time from 1 war factory with only 100 $ left. 4. When a player surrenders/is defeated we move on to the next map. I give 5 (five) minutes to let you get there. If you are not there in 5 (five) minutes, you automatically forfeit. Thank you those are the rules. To join this tourney and other tourneys afterward, just join the hamachi network "Tournament group". The time that it will take place is to be dated. Thank you and have fun. This post has been edited by Generalcamo: 25 Oct 2009, 18:02 |

Are you sure you can fill all the slots. From what I've seen there isn't much interest in a ROTR tournament right now

In "Mountain Guns", those who start on the edge would have a great advantage. Thus, the map doesn't seem balance.

I think you're forgetting Stinger, who's up there with Erik and XV.

don't really like how it moves from a FFA to a 1v1...imo it'd be better to just have one or the other

True. Second, big FFAs can take a hell of a long time. Better make it go from 8 to 4 players, with the victor of the 4 player match be victorious.

Also, supply lines is the only other 5 player map. people in the middle would REALLY have an unfair unadvantage This post has been edited by Generalcamo: 28 Oct 2009, 3:09 |

He means Disadvantage
I also dought people such as Destiny or kumalik or pickysauras will even participate , even known there icon images on teh forum there highly unlikey to even do a 1 v 1 I'd maybe give it a crack. Personally, a pair of 4-plater FFAs could be round one - to weed out the weakest players. (These games would be played until two from each are defeated) The next rounds would all be 1vs1 (1 winner from Category A vs 1 winner from Category B or similar) Then the final would be the victors from those matches. -------------------- |

It should just be 1v1 knockout the entire way though, that's how it worked for the last (and only...) ShockWave tournament, and it worked quite well.
The best of the rest idea was good too. Problem is Rise of the Reds is too imbalanced (although I guess the last tournament WAS vanilla 0.95 with crazy Ironside) and it's not close enough to a ShockWave release to have a good enough quantity of players. -------------------- |

Well, if there would a be a "decent" balance 1on1 should be the best.
FFA has more to with luck than anything else. Sharp is definately the best here, wayyy better than all others. You'll always have the same problem. ROTR will never be balanced, like shw isn't. Second problem is if you dont try to keep it active now to see ALL imbalances than you dont have an active/balanced game later. Shame that your worksteps are still wrong.
