unlimited ammo ?? ^^

no, I forgot limited ammo... unless everyone wants unlimited ammo. Should it be mandatory or optional?

Optional. And maybe in cta it should be always limited ammo.

For scoring, how about 3-1-0 and for team who showed up 0.5 and for other team -0.5 cause there should be some penalty for not showing up.

I agree with the scoring, and with limited ammo in CTA. Someone set up an unlimited airfield match today, it was ridiculous.

Should ammo in other modes be a host option then?

btw there were 8 players or more online between 3am and noon gmt today. There's plenty to start forming teams with.

I'm comfortable with that layout, however i believe Limited Fuel/Ammo should be on at all times

Hello all,

I've been away skiing for a bit, no internet there which explains my absence from the game and the forum.

About sponsoring, yes the publisher has indicated his okay for that but they need to await their marketing budget to be approved before they can officially commit to sponsoring a new tournament.

Will keep you posted as to when and what they're going to sponsor.

Best,

MACADEMIC

I agree, I just want to make sure enough combat styles are included. Realistically, in a 2v2 team battle, if one team is killed off, then during the time it takes them to respawn, you could figure the other team is able to return to base, refuel and reload for another sortie. I'll try to find a way to put it to a vote among everyone who's posted here.

There's a big kind of night crowd playing right now, huge games but almost all dogfights with unlimited ammo, the usual 2-dimensional thing. Some of them may have trouble adjusting. That's pretty much all anyone does anymore, except the occasional destroy-the-airfield mode and crash-into-the-bunker mode.

Macademic does the publisher want to have all the funding and etc in order before the competition starts? Or should we go ahead cause things look ready to roll soon. Lost Cause is motivating people for a battle-of-the-planes deathmatch kind of mini-tournament, and telling people to post on this forum. So there will be a lot of people around, it's a good time to start forming teams, sometime during the next week.

Hi Kozz, they didn't say but I'd think they'd want to know what they're sponsoring before it starts. My guess is that they'll want to sponsor some tournament similiar to Ace of Aces, for individuals. Easier to market that.

Anyhow, I don't see why your competition shouldn't start, even without prices.
