|
|
Hello.
Some of you may have noticed already, but quite recently a new gamemode has been introduced in Zdaemon. Survival that is. We were first a bit sceptical about the enjoyableness of this ne gamemode, but after a bit of experimenting with server settings, we found that this new gamemode is pretty fun and can be very challenging. We are playing this gamemode regularly now, and found that this gamemode could use a welcoming tournament.
Here's what we came up with:
Two teams consisting of two players (2 vs 2) will compete against each other on the server. You and your partner collect points by killing monsters. Each kill grants you one point. This encourages playing agressively rather than standing in a corner hiding. If you die, you're out of the game and cannot collect points anymore. It's important to stay alive.
On top of that If you manage to stay alive until the exit switch is hit, 25 bonuspoints will be added to your score. Conclusion: it's really important to stay alive!
A few examples to clear things up a bit: if you kill 70 monsters but die, your score will 70 points. If you kill 70 monsters and survive to the end of the map, your score will be 70 + 25 = 95 points.
If all 4 players die, the round has to be played again until at least one player makes it to the exit. This could also be useful when you're far behind on monster kills and your opponent team is dead. You could consider killing yourself in order to restart the round then.
The rules are quite simple, because there aren't any. Team damage will be turned off so you can't kill each other directly, but nobody's stopping you from pumping a rocket into your opponents ass to shoot him straight into an ambush.
Subscription is closed and the tournament has officially started! 20 teams are competing to be very first winner of a Team Survival tournament!
The first round consists of 4 pools containing 5 teams each. The best two teams from each pool will move on to round 2, in which there will only be two pools left, containing 4 teams each.
BRACKETS
Check the above link and look for your own team within the 4 pools. You and your partner need to play the other 4 teams within the same pool. Your objective is to collect as many points in each game as possible. Earned points will be accumulated to your total score. There are point tables below the brackets. Here you can keep track of your own score and the scores of others.
So it's time to get your games played guys! Seeing as there are 40 players participating in this tournament, I think it would be fair to give you some time to get those games arranged. The first round will end on the 31st of october. On the 1st of november, we'll decde which teams move on to round 2.
To get your matches played, Kruczyslaw made us a private server to play on! Thanks Kruczyslaw! It's password protected, in order to prevent having ignorant retards joining the game and spoiling it. You can get the password from me ([QnB]Ronald) or Kruczyslaw in Zdaemon IRC. It's also possible to ask a fellow contestant for the password. He might have it already!

Wouldn't it be better just to give (more) points for surviving to the end and not take any away if you die? (the benefits of staying alive are still the same but the scores would more accurately reflect everyone's performance) |

So eh, it'll just be 2v2's and we only play one match? Or how is this going to work? If you just pair up random teams then this thing could screw itself up, unless everyteam plays eachother and you total the scores. |

I've updated my first post. Information about the number of games and how the winner will be determined is written there now.
Also, #survival is now open for further discussion and information.
Nice to see you all join this tournament. I hope we'll all have a great time playing this. |
