Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Benny on May 16, 2009, 01:46:37 PM
As per the post in the forum, what are your guys thoughts?

Personally I see no issue as long as they represent the community and I'd suggest that anyone who plays with the wings needs to be a paid up member.

Would be good so long as people turn up (lots of people put their name down but never attend / sign up for a match), seeing the current interest in L4D I think that shouldn't be a problem.

... but the lack of ladder matches is a concern.

What we do not want to see (and will not tolerate) is dMw pulling out of matches because we can't raise a team.

Post by: Benny on May 16, 2009, 04:45:04 PM
That's the bit I was getting stuck on.

Being in an organised team takes effort, which hasn't been apparent in the ladder matches.

I guess the answer is we can't stop people forming a team and playing, but we can say it's not dMw. If they prove to deliver over a period they then become sponsored?

I can't commit to playing or organising at the moment, but I would help.
Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Penfold on May 16, 2009, 05:37:16 PM
We can't get people for the matches and ladders we currently have in CoD and CSS, to add more into the mix is just asking for trouble imo.

I'd rather we don't do anything than do it half-cocked but will support and do whatever I can to help should it go ahead.
Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Benny on May 17, 2009, 03:02:33 PM
Righto having hit a dead end. Here is my sugggestion.

Match night will be Wednesday, 8pm-9pm. I'm happy to admin it or take part as neccssary. If we can get 4/5 people to commit in here with contact details and I can do the chasing from our side.

That way we can see what the commitment is like, if people turn up for 3 or 4 weeks with no issue then I think we can go ahead with it. I have no intention of hunting for people or chasing through friends.

I'd suggest at 8pm on Weds 4 admins turn up on the server. If the other team can't organise itself then we know it's a write off. If they can then we are proved wrong and we have a goer.

Sound reasonable?

Noted sir, Sulky has PM'd me and offered to side with us if needed. I think he may need a break so it may well be me, Oldie, Lib and Sulk's. Failing that KKND as the other foruim admin.

We'll see. I haven't seen any progress to them getting together so it's probably doubtful anyway. :)

I'll post something today and see if we have a game. No game, no problem.....I can't see that anyone has organised anything.

I'm at the docs at 7:20 but I should be back for 8pm.

Let's face it we have...

Lib, Me, OB.

For the other organised team we have....

Frenzy who is turning up for a game. Ghosty who has managed to organise himself......and then there's er....Francis, Zoe and Bill.

We're going to go old school and play 4th level of hospital. Both ways...if it is over quickly the second map will be level 2 of smalltown.
Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Benny on June 09, 2009, 07:33:59 PM
Roll Up....

4 for tomorrow please.



(As a side note, OB, can you have a word with Frenzy and Tut and see if they want to represent dMw, I'm sure they could get it organised, or whether they just like the more organised match structure weds here.)

Right we need some more admins online.

I have a meeting with my MD at 5, so if he chats on I may not be back until 5 or 10 minutes late. I'm going to post for an 8:30 start in the main forum, so we have OB, Me, Lib and we need another.

Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Sn00ks on June 16, 2009, 10:18:08 AM
Yes I should be available.
We going to try a real match format? The same map played through twice, i.e. round one with Team 1 starting as Survivors and then on round two team 2 as Survivors?
This will even out any advantage the Infected get if there is a Witch or Tank spawn.
Also it might be worth deciding which team starts as what before we all jump on the server? That way the first few joiners can sort themselves out? Also if one of us hangs back until the all-clear has been given before joining?
Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Benny on June 16, 2009, 10:44:51 AM
Let's do it.

Last two maps of airport, we'll go survivor first.

I'll compromise for an 8:15pm kick off. 8:00 warm up. Meatlocker as it's stable and Oldie, if you could change the password please to z0mb1fy1 it should keep the riff raff out.

Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Sn00ks on June 16, 2009, 01:00:43 PM
Is it worth re-iterating the rules just so people are clear?
 
Also I think we need to play each map individually rather than follow one from one to the other and add the scores from the two games. The reason for this is that the game will always put the winning team in as Survivors on the next map, and that may not be fair.
 
Rules
1. Each level will be played twice with teams taking it in turns to start as Survivors.
2. The combined scores of each round will be added to the teams overall score.
3. All-talk will be turned off.
4. Exploitation of any map flaws or unsportsmanlike behaviour will not be tolerated.
5. Each team must nominate one person to act as leader and be responsible for ensuring players turn up. This person must also note of the scores and post them; taking screen shots and keeping them for later verification if required.
6. Bots will not be used to fill vacant slots

Now don't be shy, it doesn't matter if we 'lose', because we can bend the rules to make us win!! :D

The only requirement is that you have L4D, fully patched, can stick with your team and don't run off on your own (unless instructed to do so in a last ditch attempt to get points).

All 5 finales, you can edit the map list but not worked that out yet. If I do I'll send it around. I'm also going to post in the forum and point out that this 'competetive' dmw has turned into more changes in our team than theirs. (once Frenzy posts his team)

1. Sn00ks "in under the radar"
2. Mant "OldBloke" about a dog
3. "20 Tog" Duvel
4. ??????

All five finales. Hmm that will be a long match, but quite intense and fun.
 
Team A start on the first, then Team B start on the second, etc with the leading team starting on the final one. I think that would work

Yes you'll need to get Death Aboard, which you can find in the custom maps section.

Downloaded and installed the file. I reckon it installs directly in the correct folder and such so should be ready to go.
 
BTW; "20 Tog"?

TBH, I'd just line 'em up and play through them. The match format is too much pishing about with the crap code that L4D has. As long as you queue up the map changes in your radial.

I reckon they'll be mostly draws, 200 points each, so you only need one completion. Get one guy out and you'll win it.

It is supposed to be team night, a team implies a defined collection of individuals? :g:
 
Frenz, Tox, Brown and AN Other seem to be regular showers (not showers but show-ers).
 
Then there are the others that also want to be included but there are not enough to actually make a team. So naturally they feel left out and ostracised (no, not ostrichasised).
 
Frenz et al have their team and don't want to drop members to allow others to play, fair enough I say.
 
So how can we keep the others happy and stop them moaning? Dunno.
Get them to organise a mis-fits and unwanted left-overs team with anyone they can find? Sometimes there seem to be enough of those?

I have to give credit where due. GhostMjr did a very good job organising our team. I logged at about 8.15pm and we waited on Coldstore then moved over to ML.

I had a couple of logging in problems but apart from that it was as smooth as.

*ahem

shall we try the maplist technique?

I can upload a second version and see what happens?
Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Sn00ks on August 18, 2009, 02:57:37 PM
I guess you can.
The current maplist will be something like this:- (althought the DeathAboard maps should also be listed)
 
l4d_farm01_hilltop
l4d_farm02_traintunnel
l4d_farm03_bridge
l4d_farm04_barn
l4d_farm05_cornfield
l4d_smalltown01_caves
l4d_smalltown02_drainage
l4d_smalltown03_ranchhouse
l4d_smalltown04_mainstreet
l4d_smalltown05_houseboat
l4d_airport01_greenhouse
l4d_airport02_offices
l4d_airport03_garage
l4d_airport04_terminal
l4d_airport05_runway
l4d_hospital01_apartment
l4d_hospital02_subway
l4d_hospital03_sewers
l4d_hospital04_interior
l4d_hospital05_rooftop
 
 
So if you change it to this it should only play the first three levels of each campaign and then stop
 
l4d_farm01_hilltop
l4d_farm02_traintunnel
l4d_farm03_bridge
l4d_smalltown01_caves
l4d_smalltown02_drainage
l4d_smalltown03_ranchhouse
l4d_airport01_greenhouse
l4d_airport02_offices
l4d_airport03_garage
l4d_hospital01_apartment
l4d_hospital02_subway
l4d_hospital03_sewers
 
Copy it before modifying it and we could give it a go tonight?
 
Apparently there is also a sourcemod that will change the server to the next campaign when the finale is over without the disconnects.
Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Benny on August 18, 2009, 04:26:09 PM
AM at football tonight, but will give it a try when I get back.
I'll try it on coldstore obviously. Will rename the old file and fire it across.

Will setup the maplist as;
l4d_vs_hospital03_sewers
l4d_vs_farm02_traintunnel
l4d_vs_hospital05_rooftop

And does that mean you're playing tomorrow?

Yes I'll be there.

Benny, you are suggesting changing to different levels from different campaigns. I think that is going to be a bit harder to achieve. To do that I think we'd need to have the sourcemod that automatically swaps between campaigns once one finishes and then change the mapcycle to only include the ones you want. :g:

It might not be possible but worth a try, what's the worst that could happen?
Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Benny on August 18, 2009, 08:57:27 PM
Some sneaky ninja already changed the text file.

Just tested, it didn't work. I reckon you have to edit the campaign stuff. Will try, then we can set competition maps with a map from each campaign for variety. No real need, just fiddling really.

Anyhoo, go nudge lib, we have a match to win.

Should we go for the Coal'd Blood maps? They are a real challenge for the Survivors? Although it means using ColdStore and it seems to have the double Tank spawn thingy. I do like the longer smoker tongue though, definite improvement, and the crawling bit.

Well, the weather hasn't been right today for flying, so I won't be soloing tomorrow. If the weathers okay I'll be doing instructor led navigation.

And as such I won't be getting lost.

Calling all admins, we need a stand in for sn00ks.

Must have own hair, but other than that, anything goes.

(I assume Lib and Oldie are available for an 830 start?)

So are we on for tonight and how about a scavenge challenge for a bit of variety?
Title: Competetive L4D
Post by: Benny on February 17, 2010, 02:01:36 PM
Beat me to it. Had a brief chat with OB last night, I think we should open Weds up to all and say we will fill 2 servers and will guarantee an admin available for map switches etc.

Essentially when we had busier servers the Weds slot was to lock it out so we could get a decent match going, I think now as things have tailed off we should make it a free for all, come get some kinda night.

We also need to look as some of the new maps available if anyone fancies some testing?

Post by: Sn00ks on February 17, 2010, 02:24:37 PM
I'm always up for some testes! :D
 
Whoops that didn't come out right! :doh:
 
So are we going to spread ourselves or jump on one and shuffle over if numbers warrant it?

PS:-
PLAYERS: If you are not looking to design but play custom campaigns all you need to do is install the add-on support package. Just go into steam and open up the Tools tab. Look for the entry labeled Left 4 Dead 2 - Add-on Support click and install it. This download is sizable, but will update your L4D2 installation to allow running ANY map, including custom maps made for the original Left 4 Dead. Once installed, you do not need to run this application, it will always be active.

Cool, let's do it....


I'll install that later and give it a go. As for the spreading, let's fill a server and go from there :)
