T5 map testing event | 4th of March by Walt February 28, 2017 at 6:02 AM UTC

The Officials have began on the discussion of a map testing event, but we need your help.

We want as many teams to participate as possible so please message me on Discord (LFT/Walt#7169) or Skype (swagishighyouislow) with a good time for your team to scrim.

We have planned the possible map testing event on Saturday, the 4th of March, but may get set back to a later date depending on how many teams are able to part take in this event.

We may host another one before the tournament, if we get more map submissions. We're mainly looking for 2 CTF maps and 2 tiebreakers.

Maps being tested:

       (5CP/KoTH)
            (CTF)

first

profbananaslug February 28, 2017 at 7:02 AM UTC

CoreTest TE is a good tiebreaker.

I really don't know what any of these maps are. When am i getting an answer on my Ref application?  Walt

PokerFace February 28, 2017 at 9:02 AM UTC

I think KoTH should at least be on a public rotation before even thinking about making a tournament for it.

Not head of Referee's, so just be patient.

Gamemode has been announced for 3 months, if people haven't tested it at least once that's not necessarily on us :/.

Oh yeah, it's fine i am waiting.

Bloodoh February 28, 2017 at 4:02 PM UTC

Fix the gamemode first so we can scrim on it and then decide

Not your fault, but almost all the koth maps were or are still broken

I understand that there were unforeseen errors, but I think people would've been happier playing a working gamemode than a new one that we don't have much experience on/doesn't seem to work.

Still looking for team leaders to message me times!

idk if it's supposed to be like this but you only receive points if a player is standing on the captured point.

Also it'd be nice for dropped flags to respawn after a certain amount of time

That's an xml feature

That's an xml feature

(according to austin anyway)

recover-timeTime after a flag is dropped before it is respawned at it's post.Duration30
can confirm the latter is xml feature

will find out about the former. But seriously, it's not the gamemode, it can do almost the same shit as OCN. It's just the XMLs are shit.

He just want you to contact people to do it, remember that you are an official or did you forget it too?

Tazz March 1, 2017 at 5:03 PM UTC

tomqss March 2, 2017 at 12:03 AM UTC

no, you have to capture it and you dont have to stand on it

Rombeyy March 2, 2017 at 1:03 AM UTC

no, you have to capture it and you dont have to stand on it
In some maps u have to capture it and that's it in others u have to stand on the point

zicuri March 2, 2017 at 1:03 AM UTC

Por eso se quejan que los xml's están mal por que no funcionan como deberían en koth es capturar el punto entonces se supone que capturas y te da puntos.

Rombeyy March 2, 2017 at 1:03 AM UTC

Pero que modalidad está mal la de quedarse en el punto o en la que no ?

La de quedarse en el punto por que arruina las rotaciones, perdés un jugador.

Walt March 2, 2017 at 2:03 AM UTC

Map testing event time has been set to 4pm EST on Saturday the 4th. For Sunday times are still being worked out but will most likely be around 2-3pm EST.

Esa es la gracia de esos mapas

zicuri March 2, 2017 at 2:03 AM UTC

La gracia de los koth y ctf son las rotaciones y el juego equipo, igual son opiniones, eso es lo malo de poner mal los xml aparte de que ni tiempo lo hacen.

Sep se tendrían que tomar más tiempo haciendo xmls, los koths en si yo tengo entendido qué hay 2 tipos ( los que antes dije ) pasa que la mayoría de veces siempre se jugó el de capturar y listo
