just depends on whats on offer with a promod compared to not. if there was a fully fleshed out promod with built in class tutorials/mechanics improvers/role explanation/general "information consolidation" then I would be in favor. but a promod isn't an objective in it of itself, it's got to offer something more substantive than what we currently have.

i do think that it's worth discussing though. my areas of concern would be whos working on it? how do they plan on integrating currently built infrastructure (leagues, server providers, etc)? is there going to be a push for greater splintering from the base game wrt balance changes, class modifications etc or is it going to be purely a comptf2 promod w/ hardware optimizations? will we be able to airstafe out of airblasts again?

lot to ponder. very exciting though.

anyone who posts stuff like this should be hunted for sport

"After a lot of preparation, we’re happy to announce our latest 6s map testing cup!

The Cup will be free to play and will take place on Aug 24th and 25th!

This map cup is intended to gather extra data on maps that have been played in other regions or have been requested by the player base to be tested. Testing these maps will give us the opportunity to see the value, and receive feedback on these maps. To see if they would hold value in running in sixes season 16.

The cup will run for two days in a double round-robin format with 4-team pods sorted by traditional 6s divisions (NC, AM, IM, etc). Teams in each pod will play every other team twice, never on the same map!

Map Pool and Schedule

The map pool will have a different map for each Group Stage round. The maps will be cp_entropy_b5b, cp_Granary_pro_rc16f, and koth_govan_b6. There will be NO Playoffs scheduled for this cup.

Match schedules for all divisions will be released on Aug 23th, allowing teams to schedule matches at their convenience, However, default times will be set if teams cannot agree on alternate times. The top team at the end of all 6 matches will win their group.There will be a tie-breaker match scheduled in the event of a tie at the top of the standings.

ALL MATCHES MUST BE PLAYED before Aug 25th at 11:59 EDT.

The default schedule* will be as follows, (all times EDT):

Sign-ups end: Aug 22th, 2024

Group Stage Round 6: 21:30 EDT - cp_entropy_b5b

*If both teams are ready before the scheduled start time, matches are encouraged to be played early. However, if teams do not want to play beforehand games will be played at default time. All matches must be played before Sunday, Aug 25th 11:59 EST. If a tiebreaker match must be played the players will have until Monday 10:00 EST to play that tiebreaker.

Configs and Map Versions

The rgl_6s_5cp_match_pro.cfg config will be used for cp_Granary_pro_rc16f, and cp_entropy_b5b
The rgl_6s_koth_match_pro.cfg config will be used for koth_govan_b6

The map versions being used are:

cp_granary_rc16f

FAQ

What servers should we use?
All Serveme servers should already have the maps uploaded to them; however, it is highly recommended to download the maps from the link above before connecting to reduce connect time, delays, or other issues for those matches."

ggs everyone in IM. it's been a lot of fun being back on the grind one last time. even though we didn't finish where we wanted I enjoyed every minute massively. before this season started i decided it was gonna be my last season of 6s. i didn't want to leave like some do, where they say they're gonna take a season break and never return. for better or worse this game and the competitive scene have played a big role in my life the last few years. to finish on my own terms is very satisfying.

shout outs to everyone who's ever been on bruh moment - both the ozfortress and RGL iterations. Special mentions to go Lev, Luggnuts, Ozy, Krollic, DubThink (the only person aside from me to play in both region's bruh moments), Loot, Freddo, NK, Antlers, Ggglygy, Brandon_411, Will, Linguini, and Nbr1Rckr. Thank you to everyone I've met through this game - especially the IM contingent at this year's LAN. Thank you to everyone we've ever gotten to play against.

Good luck to the teams still battling it out in playoffs and may the best team win
