#7 ozfortress Summer Cup Three in Events
HildrethIt would be great for someone to give a rundown of all the teams. Sadly, after the i-series Immunity was the only team people knew of, and with them gone I am interested to know who the natural successor to them are?

As far as i know, their successor would be Jasmine, who won the last owl tournament and a cup sometime after that. At least that's what i've heard. they seem to be the best at the point in time.

i think i lost a good measure of my sanity watching this. you know that feeling where it seems like time has passed but you've been awake the entire time and it almost feels like time skipped for a few minutes? yeah, that's how i felt.

#1 Looking for Roamer Mentor in Mentoring

Hello, I'm Aimanfire, and I'm looking for a mentor somewhere from mid open to invite [whatever I can find essentially].

I've been playing soldier for a long time. about 5 seasons in highlander [usually mid/high silver level] and I've played roamer for a few seasons in UGC [1 season in iron, steel, and silver each, check my profile for all the information]. As my team moves from UGC Silver to gold and then most likely to open, i'll need to find someone to help me go from a silver/gold roamer to an open roamer, and hopefully even further beyond.

Try and be as constructive as possible, but if you feel the need to yell at me [if i'm an idiot :P], please tell me also. whatever i can do to improve my ability to play.
http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198037002483 add me here, thanks :)

P.S if your profile is private, i won't add you. too many phishers running around.

Saw you guys mention streams and matches. Had made and posted this on reddit some time ago and thought this is a good thread to share it on again.

That's freaking beautiful. how'd you get that ._____.

I'd assume it was done in photoshop.

Yup.

#37 Team Fortress 2 Open Source in Projects

going off of 2 things:
1. MasterKuni is right*
2. being a programmer in training, starting over from 7 years of work is literally insanity. the amount of time you'd have to spend on this to make it at least comparable to the mechanics of today's TF2 without all the nonsense of valve's weird weapons will take you a long time.
*= to be honest though, how much will valve care if it's a small sect of the community, when it's essentially bootleg TF2? how often have game companies cracked down on that?

that's just theorycrafting though, and the insane part of me wants to say that you should go along with this just to see how much valve really does care. but i'm gonna stay out of this. Best of luck, and i hope you don't go to jail.

#145 eXtv-Vlog: The Future in TF2 General Discussion
BLoodSireGetawhaleBLoodSire In fact...why isn't "open" free to begin with. Don't they keep telling us the money goes right back to the players? Take the prize pool away. Literally open it up for any team to try, allow the weak teams to sandbag all they want there (they get nothing out of it), and use a fee-less/prizeless open division to advertize the product. For NA tf2, ESEA is the top product on the market, but to get it will cost you. As proved by UGC there is clearly a market for a free divison. It makes smart business sense for ESEA to use its "luxury" status in the market to attract these players with a free division. The league as a whole recieves fresh blood, who while arent paying yet, will certainly yeild a portion of players who want to try their hand at greatet competition and a prize. Hence more customers.

What am I missing? This seems too obvious to not have been thought of already, so what am I not seeing here?

ESEA doesn't strike me as a progressive company, or one that cares much about innovation/good ideas. They have a monopoly on our game, they know it, they're a business. They remind me of Valve somewhat in that regard. As an organization, this is to say nothing of Tri/Killing/whoever has been involved at an individual level, but as an organization they don't have a reason to care about keeping TF2 alive.

I think the suggestion of Open being free is an OUTSTANDING suggestion, the best I've heard. I think everything would self-correct, I think divisions would sort themselves out like you say, more signups, more interest, and it could act like more of a top-level TF2 "breeding ground" than a league like UGC where the top level offers next to no reward/incentive.

I guess the trick is getting ESEA brass to buy into it.

I agree with you. But if ESEA is in the business of milking cows, and they're starting to run out of cows on the farm, it makes monetary sense to open up the gates, let the cows in, and allow them to see how awesome your farm is. You don't even have to feed them. Enough of them will decide what you have to offer is right for them. Then ESEA can milk away.

You don't need to be forward thinking to see this. Not doing this seems more like laziness or a genuine indifference to the future of this game in the league (dumb for reasons in above cow nonesense). TF2 isnt CS and doesnt have a growing and surplus supply of comp interested players. This isn't news to anyone, but if your in the business of making money off those at all interested...you have to bring them to the farm first. This policy should just be the default for a game with less numbers particularly when there exists a free option elsewhere.

I hate to spread the "esea just doesn't care" warcry, but what is the excuse? I'm certain there must be a complicated financial explanation I just don't understand that differs from "must haul as much $$$ off the Titanic while we can." Or to keep the other metaphor "lets milk these drowning cows while we can, our other farm is doing fine."

The issue with that is that ESEA doesn't need the cows [us] because they have so many chickens [cs:go]. they're living off of eggs right now, and if we die off, ESEA would just then throw all of their resources at CS:GO.

went to a party, and I plan on getting really really REALLY good at 6's this year :3

SpannzereXtine Get valve support for it. Then you might get a lot of us. You'll get me to join. But until then, I'll keep playing 6's and you keep playing arena respawn.
That's the plan for all of it. Getting A:R to put in as a matchmaking format is definitely a stretch right now, but I think we all can agree that regular Arena sucks. Having Valve setup some of their pub servers into the Arena:Respawn format doesn't seem like as much of a stretch to me and I'll be trying to pursue that in 2015.

Keep playing players, I really do hope that 6s can continue to grow and get through this difficult period.
5CP: cap points 2 win
payload: push cart 2 win
koth: cap+hold 1 point 2 win

A:R - what the fuck am i doing

A:R is Arena + Koth, from what I've seen. Like anything starting out, the way it works is very confusing and hard to define. A meta will develop for it eventually and people will figure out what works best.

Of course, if no meta develops and it's essentially pubs with less people, then I can agree with your statement.

#100 eXtv-Vlog: The Future in TF2 General Discussion

Looking at A:R on the eXtv channel, I agree that it looks fun, but won't be suited for competitive play.

I think I also speak for all of us when I give eXtine this request: Get valve support for it. Then you might get a lot of us. You'll get me to join. But until then, I'll keep playing 6's and you keep playing arena respawn.
