DGA EVO 2004 Comp’s

Well ladies and gentlemen its that time again. It has been debated and voted on and now we get the real answers…. What games are we going to be playing at DGA EVO 2004 .. And I give it too you

Counter Strike 1.5

Standard Counter Strike .. Teams of 5 will play de_ maps to see who is the best in there pool .. Will be interesting for those that are used to 1.6 .. taking a step back may prove to give us some upsets.

Call of Duty

Team Death Match .. All out battles, which team will have the patience and the abilty to wipe the other team out.

Battlefield 1942 – DESERT COMBAT .6

Well 5v5 in DC is going to be interesting .. Small maps will be used as a random draw, its going to be good.

MAPS
Basarahs Edge
Lost Village
Desert Shield
Docks
73 Eastings

Rego page will be up shortly to register your team of 6.

Pools will be posted a few days before EVO

TEAM SIZES
Teams will be groups of 6 with 1 reserve. it is 5v5 with a minimum of 4 to play.

MAPS
Maps for DC will be small maps chosen by myself and tn1, this will make for close quarter battles and keep that action close to home :D

Call Of Duty
Will be TDM as stated .. This will involve a few of the following rules.
1) Sniper Rifles will be disabled for the entire event.
2) Maps are being chosen by Milenko and will involve a select 5 maps for the comp.

When signing your team up you are signing up to a minimum of 9 games. 3 of each of the above. In each pool you will play the other teams in each of the above. So each team is promised 3 times per game.

The matches will be played with each pool playing a different game to the other pools.
So Pool A may start with CS and play all matches, at the same time Pool B will be playing DC playing all matches and Pool C will be playing CoD.
This will all depend on how many teams sign up.

COMP START TIME
Game play will begin at 2pm Saturday and will finish up when the Pool play has been completed. The knockout will begin at 11am Sunday and finish up around 4pm Sunday.

Once again the rules.

1) Pools will be groups of 4. Each team will play the other in all 3 games.
2) Points will be awarded 3 for a win 2 draw and 1 for a loss.
3) Teams that forfeight get 0 points .. Forfeighting 2 games in a row will see your team disqualified.
4) The top team of each pool will progress to the next level, where then out of a hat the game and then map will be drawn.

Any questions post below. But that’s it for now….. Good luck to all.

When you annouce the tournaments could you also announce the prizes associated with it. Doesn't have to be in detail, i'm only wandering if it is like a hardware, a game, etc...

Also, could make a warcraft 3 and a starcraft tournament. The prizes should also be hardware related for those 2 tournaments...

Well, actually any solo type game should be fine, since most tournaments are like team based games it gets frustrating when you dont' have a team. So, could you at least put one solo based game for the tournaments...

Go look at the DGA forum and the RTS comp, there is a current vote as to what is being played.

What only one all can we all do it :wink:

Post 12

Can i ask why sniper rifles are disabled for CoD?

Post 13

in an attempt to make CoD as boring as possible :)

probably to prevent sniper wars.. everyone camping, etc.. Tachi

Post 14

which is rediculous. the sniper rifle is part of the game. why bother having a comp for a game if you're going to disable part of it.

Post 15

Sniper Rifles were disabled after I had numerous conversations with those that play CoD in proper wars .. and to keep the game as interesting and fun for all I made the decision to disable sniper rifles.

Post 16

yeah, i think it's stupid too.. should just play 'THE GAME' not part of it... but unseen has chosen to do that..

Thats a kind of bold statement seeings as I am limiting the maps played aswell.

But I am trying to make the game as fair and fun as possible.

Post 18

team death match, but you cant use a weapon that's good at killing people without being killed yourself.

the death cam that lets you see who killed you, and from where, is enough to prevent sniper camping.

ok, so the decision was made, i can deal with that, i dont play the comps anyway -- but from what i can see you didnt actually ask the people who WERE going to be playing in it. sorry if i'm wrong about that.

No thats a fair comment, which is correct .. I asked those that play this game every night .. COD Addicts :) .. Im taking there advice and applying it here

wasn't trying to be bold.. i can see it came across like that :D limiting the maps is both a good and a bad point.. at least everyone has a chance to practice the maps and play on a fair and level playing field, so i agree.

i'm not saying a agree and i'm not saying i disagree with the decision to remove sniper rifles. i'm saying i'll deal with it.. as paladin has stated, the death cam is reason enough for me to move after i snipe someone

Post 21

Updated DC maps added.

CoD maps later tonight aswell as CS maps

Post 22

Limited maps also mean there is more hope for those a little unfamiliar with them therefore making the comp a little more fair and interesting.......in my opinion.

DOH :!: :!: :!:

Post 24

5 Second Death-Cam WILL be disabled for CoD.

Friendly fire - ON
locked chasecams - ON
Friendly identifiers - OFF
Compass - ON
Force-Respawn - ON
Team Frag Limit - 70
Round Time - 20 Minutes.

Maps:

mp_carentan
mp_dawnville
mp_hurtgen
mp_rocket
mp_docks"

We are trying to make the game as fast/furious and entertaining as possible. We believe these settings will contribute to that.

Post 25

How about 1v1 on the snowy sniper map with rifles on? That'll be real fast :)

Post 26

why not disable the awp in CS?

Post 27

Because there's nothing wrong with it.

Don't like, don't play.

Post 28

The same can be said with CoD. I don't see many people complaining about the sniper rifles in CoD but join CS servers and theres heaps. But i guess its decided so nm

Post 29

yeah tachi got it
sorry stonefish, you didnt
