Re: GC Tournament #4 - BRACKETS UP!!! TOURNEY TMW @SBT+.5!!!
how is it going to work next week with scrim #1 at the same time?
the games were great. the teams were more or less balanced IMO (more then it would been otherwise anyway).
and we saw some really close rounds.
Karkand seemed broken to me. the bleed was so fast there was little time to do anything.
and apart for the time issue that was mentioned enough already, the servers, settings and everything else should've been tested before SBT+0.5, not 5 minutes after the tourney should've started.
4TRS FTW!

Could have some technical delays been avoided? Yes, but those things happen and it could have been worse (we all had our guns the whole round ).
Very good job from Starfisher and Dan1mal casting the event and also having to put up with the freecam tool. The camera positions could have been better, but the cast itself was very good. Lots of talking and describing the situation. You guys could do this professionally
Although watching the stream was fun, waiting so long to play was not. It is unavoidable to some extend and not having the EU server to play on was not helping.
8v8 is a great format IMHO. To play only 3 flag maps was also a good idea, so that there was a constant bleed on one side.
There is no perfect team balance, but the teams were quite okay I think.
All in all a great tournament, which I would play again even if the exact same issues mentioned were still present.
and of course for haruky

Yeah, GGs. Could have gone smoother I guess but it was still a good time. 8v8 is a fun format.
What happened between 4tres and Tiddys on Bazaar, though? From what I heard Tiddys were down 2 or 3 players for large parts of the game. If disconnects and crashes are what decides the outcome of a game shouldn't a rematch be discussed?

I am not sure what happend. Tiddy wrote in the chat at the end of the first round they had disconnects, but the next round came up without any comment from the tournament leadership.Madsgyver wrote:Yeah, GGs. Could have gone smoother I guess but it was still a good time. 8v8 is a fun format.

Re: GC Tournament #4 - BRACKETS UP!!! TOURNEY TMW @SBT+.5!!!
well i joined to ring for giggles with 20 tickets left on first round but before that loa dropped and somebody else i believe. Everything was played until the end because it was the last match of the day and it was late
Re: GC Tournament #4 - BRACKETS UP!!! TOURNEY TMW @SBT+.5!!!
I agree with Necro. Karkand Assault at 65% 8v8s wasn't ideal. For 5v5s it would be ok, not for 8v8. Should have been changed to 75% IMO.Necromancer wrote: Karkand seemed broken to me. the bleed was so fast there was little time to do anything.

Thanks haruky for organising this I had great fun! I thought the randomized 8v8 worked really well.
That's definitely not because my squad won everything

Yeah, we lost giggles near/at the start of round one and didn't get a replacement until it was essentially over. Loa disconnected atleast once, I think gonzo disconnected twice in the round for long stretches...I can't remember if I got disconnected on Bazaar or if it was an earlier map...but yeah, we had huge issues in round one on Bazaar, basically played the whole round down two guys (giggles disappearing and then rolling disconnects).Madsgyver wrote: What happened between 4tres and Tiddys on Bazaar, though?

Nothing was discussed at the time because it was the last match and everyone was starting to get burnt out, so we didn't care to "fight it". Plus we'd already had one round scrubbed on Karkand because of the server crash and comms issues, so we were frustrated at the tech issues we were facing and just wanted to be done it seemed.
Re: GC Tournament #4 - BRACKETS UP!!! TOURNEY TMW @SBT+.5!!!
ehhhh... Idk.. there's alot of things they would need to work on to get me excited for BF4. Proper Weapon balancing i.e. more than just 3 weapons being the end all be all weapons, proper class balancing i.e. not make assault effectively the #1 class by giving it not only the best weapons but also the ability to heal/revive, and proper map design (not asking for symmetrical maps but maps that are balanced as well as utilizing the map effectively not having all 5 flags in effectively 25% of the map...*cough* firestorm *cough*). Just to name a few of the glaring problems that have slowly annoyed me about BF3.Frosteyy wrote: Don't worry WK, BF4 is coming soon.
That said though I am partially leaning toward getting it to play with GC. I just don't know if I can justify 60+ dollars...

Re: GC Tournament #4 - BRACKETS UP!!! TOURNEY TMW @SBT+.5!!!
Haruky managed to bribe the TAs into getting priority for the tournament, so the first match is literally starting at SBT, and we're going to run through it as fast (and fairly) as possible. We have two servers, so depending on numbers we will probably organize something for the people not engaged in finishing the tournament.Necromancer wrote:how is it going to work next week with scrim #1 at the same time?

Re: GC Tournament #4 - FINALS on 6/8/13 @ SBT!!!
I was thinking the scrim could just go on on one sever then have the guy paying the 8vs8 drop in and out as needed. Scrims dont count for anything anyway just for fun.

Re: GC Tournament #4 - FINALS on 6/8/13 @ SBT!!!
you could start the tournament SBT - 1....if that's not too early for NA ppl. Just giving an idea.
