|
|
I've been playing as much 1 on 1 as I could, lately, and during the last part of each of my matches, I asked this question (assuming that I was losing horribly, which I was for the most part): "May I have one last request?"
And that last request was and always is "Want to make the last frag of the match into a fist fight? Just for fun? "
I've heard that this sort of thing has been tried, or suggested before, but unfortunately I cannot find it, even with the robust search engine provided.
But my suggestion is simply this: Two opponents, no weapons or ammo or powerups, and a frag limit of one.
I fancy it will be a USA tournament, or even a North American tourney, seeing as I live in the USA myself.
I don't know which wad/map is suitable for something like this, but I'd like to know if anyone would be interested in a "Tournament" like this or has any ideas for this. Or if any of you even know if this has been tried before. xD
Cheers all! |

I always do the fist fight with roscoe, and I think I'm doing well but I die and he tells me he has 84% health left.
Oh well I'd definitely join this, and I'll get going on a few map ideas as well. |

Interesting. Certainly something to be considered. Do you have any map suggestions? |

Oh, I'd say almost anything will do. It doesn't have to be very large at all. Then again, there could be something to be said for "terrain" and "technique" in a fist fight. Maps to be used are definitely open to suggestion, mainly because my knowledge of maps aren't exactly encyclopedic. Ha ha. |

The maps should have beserk packs but not too many off them. |

I remember there being a boxing wad....
I really can't remember the name of it at all. |

The nice part about it is the matches themselves wont take very much time at all. Frag limit of one, then you're done.
I disagree about the berserk packs, however. That would make it go a little too quickly, assuming we stuck with just one frag.
A boxing ring wad would probably work great for this. I'll take a looksee at the one you 've got there, Willy. =D |

If its one frag, then I would suggest a round robin style tournament. |

I took a look at it, and I like it. With boxing ring, it'll be perfect. The "bouncy" ropes will make it especially interesting and different. The *only* thing I don't really like about it are all the berserk packs. One hit from that and you're done. Not really worth it at all. Like I said, no powerups.
Edit: I'm going to start asking around IRC and see if anyone else is interested in this. I'd really like to see if we can make this work. |

I've got a boxing map. Had a (laggy) server up with it a while ago.

Replaces the pistol with a fist.
I may need to put some health packs in there. Now you get every other frag, so the one who dies first will probably lose. Exciting, huh? |

Berserk packs are just items, you can disable them
But yeah, I understand. |

About the same as the [SL]Freds wad, less detail, no bouncy ropes. Pretty generic and straight forward. It might work, too. |

I hear ya, Goaty. I'm probably going to go ahead and do it without your map. But fear not! This won't be the first tournament like this. I plan for there to be many, all trying different things. |
