Why do you need a tourney mode to play competitively again? I played Counter strike for 4 years and that game never had a built in tourney mode. People just made mods to track stats and clan matches were setup on websites like OGL with rankings in ladders.
Oh and on a side note, !!! this game r0cks !!!
The problem about tourney mode is this.
Pub games play next-to-fine, but perhaps a slight consideration to net-code.
Once a game is switch to tournement mode, reloads the map, players pick sides, countdown, game starts. BAM . The most rediculous lag you have ever played in. It remains through the entire map.
A slight fix, change to tourney, then to pub as the game begins. Lag still remains, but less so.
We even played a couple scrims without going to tourney mode, just changing sides in the regular 30sec countdown. Much more playable, a little bit less than tourney-to-pub switch, but not worth the hassle.
Pubs should play like tourney? What's the deal? That's the deal.
And yea, the game rocks. Just more people need to play and get better. T1 wasn't a huge hit, and wasn't all that popular out of the gates. Also, what was the timeline for T1 patching? How soon was 1.1, and 1.2 after? The rest?
**And a special note from Gring to you...
People are saying December is too late to save this game. Go to hell. You just don't like or respond to the game the same way you either 1) used to or 2) thought you would. Fine. Leave. Go away. No one wants you playing either. You're one of those pathetic effs that spends 1/3 of the pub game complaining about the pub game. Just stfu, play, or don't. Why waste all the effort moaning and groaning like an overgrown child. The entire community would do 100% better without you ignorant leghumpers.
