EVO 5 - Comps

RTS - Dawn of War 2v2 to be played at 7pm friday night

FPS - CS:Source 5v5 to be played at 7pm saturday night

Racing - NFSU2 individual - to be played from 12pm sunday (midday)

CS:Source comp will be run with legit servers only, cracked versions of the client will soon become a danger to holders of legit steam accounts due to the imminent release of VAC.

NFSU2 races will be with NO career cars, race breaker and collisions will be enabled, and you must use the same car for all races. There will be three rounds, Drag, Drift and Circuit of 3 races each. The highest points holders will then go onto a finals round. Tracks will be chosen and released on friday 21st.

What is the set up for the CSS comp?

to be in the cs source comp u will need to update ur steam the day before the lan, as the server and client need to be the same version.

what server settings are going to be used ?? or they still being decided.

BTW when I meant set up I meant is the comp single elimination, double or something totally different?

we have never done a DOW comp...

And you never should, but since the vote is even wouldnt it be prudent to run 2 ? or ask people on the day for the final vote.

+ im gonna miss the Cs source comp would really like a warIII comp :)

yeah too right Flamm. I voted WarIII wheres this big wall of support that DoWs supposed to have. I call for a recount.

i want a battle for middle earth comp! 0_o.
still, ill get in on that DoW comp, so u can change my vote from BFME to DoW, DoW 21, wc3 20 :-P

but since i cant really do that :S

is there anything happening for DC ?

It appear not tn1. That 5 v 5 ctf match on wake and basrahs nights were great fun.

I don't think an official comp would be worth having, but we definitely need to organise another scrim like last time. :grin:

yeah, no dga DC.. but ICDU will be up for a match or two for sure.

cool so will I...tell me when ur going to play

at the moment, i think it will be based on the timetable.

hmmm, i dont like this "ligit" server setup for css...

at a guess, someone still hanging off their mothers apron strings.

in the real world people pay for things if they expect or demand full functionality out of them.

The mods could tell you who voted for DoW. I was one of them. DoW won, get over it.

from what i heard.... i also voted for wc3 and when the thread was meant to be closed off the score was

war3 = 19
dow = 18

when i spoke to harby, he said that the poll did not matter one bit at all... it was only to give a 'direction' .... but yeh... lol ... interesting enough

so basically..... your votes ment SWEEET FA

WC3 has also had several goes at competition already at previous dga events, also seeing as not everyone who attends and enters the competitions will come here just to vote on what competition is done. It makes sense to use the poll as a guide for what interests there are.

So it's not your votes mean 'sweet fa', they do indeed give an idea what's generally wanted.

RTS and CS will be double elim, depending on numbers.

as for the polls, when I closed the poll, DoW was in the lead, thats enough justification for me, and the votes were close enough that either would have been fine.

I would have preferred a bfme comp, would have been a laff.

Well ATM its even, it has ALWAYS been even every time i opened that page it was neck and neck (swing of 1 vote).

How the hell can the results change AFTER you closed the thread, It does not make sense.

i think moderators can vote after the closing of a thread... without really noticing..

i'm not sure.

or harby looked at the results when he wanted it closed and people voted after that.

one possibility, is that a moderator may have accidently voted not realising it was locked

/me shrugs

who cares?

im a bit dissapointed it wasnt very professional to choose from wc3 and dow, there should be a second vote!

once it gets locked mods cant vote either .. it takes away that option for us all

votes or no votes, its been decided life happens, no one is stopping you having a game of Warcraft 3 seperate, or even making your own little competion with people that want to play it, as long as it doesnt get in the way of the DGA comps i guess.

most havent had the chance to play DoW in comps or infact verse people on a lan, wereas warcraft has been around for years.

So whens the rest of the games timetable going to be released?

probably tomorrow

just a reminder - be sure to run cs source just before you leave for evo to ensure you have all the latest updates. otherwise on the day, steam is going to make all our lives very unpleasant.
