It is a LAN tourney located at TBUN cyber cafe near Aman Suria

price is unconfirmed and it is random team. you cant choose ur side, so no staking up with
ur pro friend and pwn other noobs.
*
players will be randomly placed in team to make it more fairer, no team is too imbalanced.

QUOTE(ayyam @ Jan 3 2008, 12:56 PM)
random team?why cant send teams instead of individuals?
so u mean that this tourney is a killing and all trying to get the most kills?
and what about weapon unlock and perks?
*
you can send a team, but i'll be breaking them up and randomly placing them with other teams.
its a tourney on getting the most kills. your teamwork skills are important when playing with people you don't know.

QUOTE(LuVz @ Jan 3 2008, 03:06 PM)
this is 1v1 or 5v5 dota tourney? @@"
dont understand leh. xD
*
no its not a dota tourney.

QUOTE(temptation1314 @ Jan 3 2008, 03:13 PM)
Aman Suria, sweat.gif can tell me near where ma?

Besides, on the thought for tourney.

Fee = RM20 sweat.gif RM10 cannot meh RM20 is a bit pricey.

2nd thing, about teams.
Get enough participants to enter, event organiser get must get ready with numbers in card or paper.
Roll it up and put in bucket.
Let each of the person take 1 number.
Then the team members will be decided using odd or even.
Fair?
*
its near kelana jaya, next to dataran prima.

RM 20, any less cannot cover cost.

bucket with numbers, will have someting similar, not to worry.

this sounds fun..
How is this going to be played?
pansy pants normal mode or hardcore(HC)?

hopefully its HC Search and Destroy or Domination as playing team deathmatch is boring and really gets dull fast as alot will just camp as there is no objective, where else if Free For All is mindless fun and all its still mindless...
hope to hear from you soon...

i like this idea..
but i dont like the idea of playing deathmatch game..
its a clueless game.. play 3 vs 3 or something..
FFA is just stupid..
*
dying isn't my choice dude.
im going to do FFA (but its not final), but in this FFA, i will be jumbling up players in teams and each player needs to work together with strangers to try to get the most kills. each player will be individually ranked after each match with additional bonus points if your team wins.
then in the next round, players are randomised again, this way you will be playing a typical FFA in the cafe, with different people all the time!
the idea is to play random, work with strangers will keeping urself alive. sure ther might be campers but teamwork will play an important role.

random is to make it more noob friendly. if noobs see ur team, they might run away.

kong, At tbun aman suria and wangsa maju got a lot of cod players. Like at tbun wangsa maju,mostly malays are playing cod. but still got some chinese. they sure don't know about this. they must know! lol. cod FTW!

u think we going to play ffa at shipment with 20players? omg...i dun wan play if 20players ffa at shipment. Ur head will pening2.lol.

i will check this post everyday.lol.
*
i guess shipment is a big nono. i only play SP, haven't tried MP so i can't decide on the map. i need everyone here to suggest.

QUOTE(Cheese @ Jan 8 2008, 01:44 AM)
breaking ppl up randomly is a horrible idea.

probably 5v5 with gamemodes such as capture the flag or capture the point would be nice but not sure if local populace is familiar with such things at all (since afaik not many ppl play fps anymore and even fewer tried anything further than dm)

you should try a tf2 tournament instead. the tf2 scene is growing up nicely. lots of new clans popping up to contest with the old. check out the gamesync forums. they're still exploring the possibilities but most rules have already been established locally and internationally.
*
breaking up people randomly = playing randomly in a cafe with strangers = more opportunities = more casual.
hope the above is easy to understand.
im still more keen to do FFA, as it is easier to understand for now.

TF2= not interested.

QUOTE(CyPrinZe @ Jan 8 2008, 08:14 AM)
I disagree.. I am from MBT and very active in FPS online gaming especially in the Battlefield series and COD4 is happy to say that FPS is still strong, only not as strong as the number of players from DOTA.. but how i see is that we just need to bring back those glory days from the ppl that was once from CS.. yes ladies and gentlemen, malaysia was full of gamers which the  majority was CS(Counter Strike) and if any of you who is unaware what that game is(been living under a very big rock) an FPS.. And all this blood hungry junkie need is a taste of it and they will flourish all we need is to make the first step.. I employ you not to make this an individual contest as COD4 will really be greater if it was a team based contest..

Please reconsider the FFA method..  If your worried about not going to have enough people/teams/clans that will be joining this brilliant event, fear not as i will try to bring in as many Battlefield series players into this event and if your wondering, MBT has over 50 players.. And this is not including players from other Battlefield series like @MP, XEF, FFF, CERT and etc..

PLEASE RECONSIDER IN MAKING THIS EVENT INTO A HARDCORE SEARCH AND DESTROY MODE OR DOMINATION MODE as this will test every team's teamwork and skills..

anything, anyone can xfire me if you need me..

BTW helicorpster you say there are times in your CC that COD4 players are more then DOTA players? I like this.. tell me more about this.. When do they play the game? Do you mind if MBT drop by on these occasions?

Cheers..
See You On The Battlefield..
*
helicorpster is right, there are a lot of COD4 kakis there. sorry to disappoint u but im not keen to make this a hardcore tournament. my aim is to make a fun and casual tournament.

QUOTE(Manock Colock @ Jan 8 2008, 08:56 AM)
HC Search & Destroy sounds very interesting. It would be really cool to see the local scene come up with teams to participate.

This would encourage the formation of more local clans smile.gif
*
maybe later.

QUOTE(strace @ Jan 8 2008, 09:55 AM)
I understand the purpose of breaking up ppl into team randomly. Please give the new and curious ppl a breathing chance. Bring your dota friends to play this game, spread the words!!! because now dota tourney is all about clan matches, newcomers can't budge in unless they have a uber skillz or join a decent clan and mix in with their top tier lineup. I believe pro tourney will be scheduled after this even if this event is somewhat unsuccessful.
*
yes, its to introduce noobs to the game in a casual format while having an objective (not a grand cash prize, but with enough incentive to try the game and have fun).

I don't mind but make it TDM. There's no sense in having a competition and having just DM. Leave DM to Unreal and Quake. Their maps are more suitable for it.

And a few suggestion on my part,

- Ban Shipment and Wet Work. These maps are grenade magnets. No use in calling it a tourney even a casual one at that if everyone's just going to lob grenades at each other.

- I don't mind the other modes, but i haven't played them yet. I've only played Hardcore once and TDM most of the time. I'm guessing it's safe to say that the others in the CoD thread mostly play TDM or Hardcore as well.

- I advocate FFA ONLY AND ONLY IF there aren't enough people for TDM.

- Lower the fees, even BF tourneys arent this expensive. RM10 should do about right. Especially if you have more people.

QUOTE(XaVieRGizmo @ Jan 8 2008, 11:59 AM)
sleep.gif, DM tourney is just dumb. DM FFA that. This is not quake, or you could have it DM 1v1, that's it. Anything else, drop it. move on to the usual Team based matches. Meaning HC SnD, or HC, Domination.

So much more things to learn from HC SnD & HC Domination, teamwork is very very important in those modes, since you say "to work together with strangers", im thinking you want the community to grow right? Well you dont want hardcore, then just make it SnD 5v5 or 5v5 Domination. Would be great if its a 8v8, do you have that many players on your side?

We have the battlefield community could send 3-5 teams already.
*
sorry, i confused myself earlier (damn work).

it's suppose to be a TDM, not FFA. just that the players will be randomised at the start of each round.


Please give me your comment on these questions:

Q1. Fixed team or random teams (player placing decided by organizer, randomly)
Q2. Map suggestions
Q3. Time to play in the tournament: morning, afternoon or evening
Q4. Players in a team: 3 or 5
Q5. Suggested game modes

i managed to get sample competition format from an online tournament.

i'd like some feedback on this too if possible.

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOT A FINAL CONFIRMATION OF THE TOURNAMENT.

the tourney may be changed to a TDM format, depending on response/feedbac.

it would seem most people like 8v8, more massacre!

marines!

i know you are all anxious to see combat after all the months of training. you have all trained hard and i'm sure that all that training will help you win the war, if not come back safely.

but HQ has yet to issue a final order to go into battle as they feel you pansy marines wont survive in the harsh reality of the the battlezone and thus things will be indefinite for now, at least till CNY 2008.

so take some time off, visit the family and friends, gamble all your money and make sweet love to one you love for when the call of duty comes, you may not return....

***

in simple english, no budget has been approved yet as i'm pending final approvel from management and even Activision themselves. it'll take some time and i don't know how long.

so everyone will need to be patient, much longer.

i'm reading the thread actively and i have been taking into consideration some of the suggestions by all you so fret not and keep your fingers crossed!

until i sound the alarm, keep fragging!

On a side note, RM20 is perfectly fine, if it can be justified by the overall gaming time, format, and prize money.

e.g. If prize money is RM200 for 1st place, and its based on knockout for a 10 min match. Then RM20 is DEFINITELY too expensive.

i will make sure it will be justified. i dont host the typical tourneys that if you lose you can go home immediately....

Added on February 1, 2008, 10:42 amOh king kong, if it doesn't cost much to make a banner, maybe making 3 banners would be good to promote the coming tourny.

1 Banner at each of the Tbun outlets and just say something like

Call of Duty 4:Modern Warfare Tournament Coming Soon!
Visit the Call of Duty 4 thread in lowyat.net for more updates or something llike that.

ah, when it's firm i'll do so.

I was at Tbun for a while and everytime I'm there, the cafe is playing Hardcore mode and OMG.... Hardcore is so slow paced... Not enough action... Slooooow motion... LoL.

Oh btw King Kong, you'll need somebody who is experienced with the rules of engagement in Call of Duty 4 so they can advice you on stuff which should and shouldn't be allowed for tournies.
*
well. i might make a special appearance at tbun one day. then i'll listen to everyone. i listen closely to the LYNK clan from Dawn of War so don't worry, i'll make the best of it. let's hope that one day is soon and that my management can approve it.

Btw, let me know who is incharge so I can cancel his/her membership card if anything goes wrong. Hahahaahh!

Pryde, The reflect dmg can be adjusted when creating the server. The function is under the friendly fire drop-down-menu. But you did well for the spawn time. It made HC much more fun. I hate waiting after dying... Sooo... slow paced.
Sanc, get susu to contact me regarding the friendly match with FTZ.
