king Tiger -> Tournament Mode? (1/14/2012 18:42:08)

Well the people that play the most and spents the most amount of money are the best in the game.(wrong)What makes an achievement better than an other player, for example 'battle tested" , thats just an achievement given out to award the player that spent varium to buy the gold card and to mask ED's mistake.
When i sigened up to play this game it was for the PVP part of it.

The people that are on the the 1vs1 all time list don't have that much skill. Killing Valery every single day don't mean that they are the best.
There should be mode where people should recongize a ture champion.(war-kills all time and rarity all time) they had too much money too spent.


I think there should be monthly tournaments, where we should crown a champion in 1vs1 for that month. This is just an advise.
People can sign , and there should be bracket type of matches where the computer can read the data if the person won or lost.

I galdly welcome any support to this concept.

Tournaments are coming soon. My own idea, is that they put tournaments in some of the arcade bots, my opinion. :D



One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/14/2012 18:47:39)

I feel like we would need Titan or Hudelf(or both) to create an interface if which a tournament can really happen. Then we have the issue of timezones I know from some of the words people use they are from different time-zones or even countries then Artix Entertainment.

Next issue you have is the winner will almost always be the OP'ed class which doesnt show who is the best it shows who can abuse the system the best.

Finally we have the ever present issue of luck and almost anyone who loses will go the other side got lucky because they don't want to admit someone else is better.

Luck makes the game fun, without luck ,that person would just keep winning.

Also when gets it to the semi-finals and final match, there should be a set of match's that are in set's of 3 match's.

For instance, I beat Dax before with 1HP , I would have died but the game chose to give me one hp. I felt proud that I beat her.



rej -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/14/2012 19:21:27)

This idea has been suggested dozens of times before.



BaIllz -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/14/2012 19:24:00)

Luck isn't fun... because it makes you lose when you should win. If you have the skills, you don't need luck. So like you said,

if there was no luck the 1 person would keep winning because he has skills.
Just imagine if your on your first round of the tournament and you know your going to win, but then lose due to luck, bam your kicked out of the

tournament and the person who beat you moves on but then loses next anyways because he won with luck last time.

Also, yea lets say everyone signed up for the tournament, and

the tournament was organized by a computer, what would happen if someone couldn't show up for the tournament due to time zones?

Or, make the Tournament a real quick thing, but 2 tournaments a day, and once you sign up, tournament will start in the next 10 minutes?

Just some ideas....

king Tiger -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/14/2012 22:35:01)

So ur basically saying that people who have high support should not get crits and people who put max should arts should not get blocks. In fact I agree to disagree , by putting high support and max shadow arts is in a way a skill , but getting blocked and getting crits could be considered has luck.

And your right about he time zone situation, didn't think that one clearly. So instead of assigning a person in the begginning it could be random 1vs1 match in the pool of players that signed up. So aleast one person it mostly likely on untill they are kocked out of the tourney. near to the end is when people should get assigned ramdomly.

This just my draft idea, thats why I need your guys help. Together we can make this idea better.



Xxbbooxx -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/15/2012 18:25:38)

My wish is they added this into the arcade option, so you have say, 16 people each pay 5 battle tokens to enter, totalling 80 battle tokens, first place gets 50, second gets 20 and third gets 10.

Or pay credits to enter and do it that way, perhaps having special prizes on occasion such as 1st place gets guaranteed chance at a bot, or a new aux/gun etc.



Sipping Cider -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/17/2012 13:47:52)

As for the luck factor, that can be iliminated through multiple rounds or a tournament were you play everyone in it and your score depends on which participants you beat.

However, it is a good point that op classes will dominate, so waiting for balance is good idea before putting tournaments in.

As for time zones, tournaments could accur every hour and give little rewards like extra battle tokens or credits.



T.600 -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/17/2012 22:21:22)

I know a good concept for tournaments. This is similar to the concept in a different game, and obviously, the game needs to be more balanced before tournaments can be implemented.

There are multiple types of tournaments which all have different requirements and different rewards. e.g: One would require you to be a maximum of level 20, and whoever wins gets a certain amount of credits, battle tokens or exp. When you enter the tournament you will be matched up with any person who is in the same round as you. Whoever wins the match moves onto the next round. For the loser, you will simply be matched up with someone in the same round as you. The winner will be matched with any other person who reaches the next round, the quarter-final. This would require a large playerbase, but I assume that the amount of players will increase by the time the game is adequately balanced. Hope that you can understand this idea properly...



goldslayer1 -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/17/2012 22:33:00)

i been thinking of making a tournament myself.
so far i got the perfect name for it.
im gonna call it, BLOCKAMANIA.



Lord Nub -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/17/2012 23:09:15)

Really do hope they introduce tournys soon but I doubt it will ever happen.

The excuses for most of the simplest things so far were that the engine couldn't handle it or something was coded in a way making it impossible.

Something such as tournys seems like something we can only dream about.



BaIllz -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/18/2012 13:36:05)

@ the person who said shadow arts and all points into support.

Indeed, if you have high support, you will have a higher chance to go first. Indeed if you have max shadow arts you will have a 10% chance to block etc. Yet, it is when people have no dex at all, and block.

That is what I mean by luck, which I just wanted to clarify.

Thanks,

~BaIllz



Goony -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/18/2012 18:35:38)

Offline playing mode ;)

Small number, say 16 player tournaments, rankable so players eventually become seeded and can join higher level tournaments. Could have class, alignment, zone, level, etc... based enrollments. Would be the icing on the cake for Epic Duel :)



king Tiger -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/18/2012 22:59:56)

Okay I understand what you mean Trans, and I understand the fact about being truly lucky Ballz :-).

So I was reading through Mr. Gonny's idea, and it seems pretty good, but there could be some changes made.

You guys should check it out and us what you think or be done differently.

About this system not being able to process thiat kinda idea , hmm i don't know. If they can make a huge war, they can make this happen.

Also when they first reeasled the war, like oh my gosh, it had a lot of bugs and it was really laggy.

But it was a work in process and they fixed most of it up.

If ED tried hard enough , they could get something going.



Lord Nub -> RE: Tournament Mode? (1/18/2012 23:07:55)

I wonder what the team thinks about this?

Have they talked about it?

Has Titan discussed with anyone how this might work?

Would be great for us to get a little information about it to have a more knowledgeable discussion.

Here's a quote from Titan from 07 Aug 2011

quote:

After spending loads of hours rethinking and retooling the engine, you can expect big expansions to the game at a rate faster than you’ve seen since we launched.

Some of these features include new armor types (not just for player, but also for NPCs), larger more meaningful factions, tournament brackets, larger buddy lists and group chats, item banks, improved retraining system, and additions to the storyline that will push the faction war to new limits.


I understand Tournys may be a difficult thing to implement but perhaps a little info about what's being discussed or what's even within the limitations of the current coding?

Also group chat. I've been looking forward to that for some time now and it doesn't seem at all like a difficult task...
