If there was a new tournament/league going to run... which would you prefer:

1. New Style flags with Mouselook, jumping, etc. run on maps made for these dmflags.

or

2. Same ZDDL dmflags as now, but run on 5 maps that have never been offered in ZDDL in the past (all maps from Season1, 2, 3 may not be included.)

Also if you like the idea of option 2, but want it adjusted to "5 brand new maps either developed by the community or have been released after January 1st, 2009" voice your opinion in this thread and maybe we'll make another later pole to determine types of new maps.

I might actually duel if there was mouselook and some new action based map ala Judas23_ style.

NS duelling is a whole new kettle of fish. I for one would be hopeless at it as I don't have a jump button!

A combo of both NS and OS would suit everyone though.

i dont mind jump so much just lock mouse look. i think it seriously damages gameplay via 1on1 to use mouselook. i think the use of doom auto aim must be mastered to be a true doomer.

I like the classic three for sure. I can see a scenario of map01 being taken out. How about mix it up somewhat. From what I understand, there are scripts that can allow jump, freelook, etc in some maps while it won't allow it in others. It would be cool to have a mixture of both, like TLSD and d5m1 in the same wad. I think that really balances out both sides of the communities dueling preference.


But me personally? I'm old, I like what's been going on for the past 3 years now. Razz

Ditto. I think either of these tournament styles would be a great addition/alternative. However, I feel that NS maps need more of a foothold in the market.

Allow me to pull some rough numbers out of the air here:
There's what? Say maybe 5 core classic maps which no OS dueller would turn down? Then maybe another 5 which are lesser played but very well respected? That's just guesstimated figures, I'm not looking to debate exactly how many of each there are. But the current ZDDL compilation is about 20 maps anyways.

Then you come to NS and the issue is that outside of TLSD2004 (and perhaps Boo) there has never been any kind of real standard set. Fad maps come and go, but nothing has ever been played on anywhere near as regularly as the OS maps.

AlexMax recently wanted to put together an NS pack for Skulltag but he didn't have many map suggestions, so I gave him a whole bunch but the problem was then that he had no input on which of them to select as I guess most people weren't familiar enough - or at all - with the named maps. He or I could pull names out of the hat all day long and there just wouldn't be much hard evidence to qualify or dispute them Sad

Since then I'd been thinking of trying to get the ball rolling with a small 4 or 8 map pack. Maybe some of you might want to comment on the suitability of the maps named in that ST thread?

I like the idea of 5 new maps more than new flags, and would actually consider playing.

At this point, the poll has been going on for quite some time. and we still only have 22 votes. Which is about 30% of what a normal ZDDL season has, so I'm going to assume there truly is just no interest in a tournament with new maps, or new flags.

If anyone can ground up some more votes from people interested in joining/playing in something like this, please do.

If we get 40-50 votes in total, I will prolly go ahead and run a league with such. But scheduling and planning this kind of thing takes time, so I need to find out ASAP in order to schedule around other tournaments/leagues.

The only thing I really would like to see is full mouse look. People can still use autoaim if they want but it's 2009. I don't really duel since I've been using mouse look since 1997 when I first started playing Quake. I feel weird as hell playing a FPS without that.

Fast: Stop living in the past, this is 2010, NOT 2009. We don't play with pure freelook in 2010, get with the times! 2010 is all about the autoaim, quit your whining!

And we're playing a game that was made in 1993, not 2009 or 2010.
Each to their own anyway.
