So about that MLG thing

<< < (9/15) > >>

Wundsalz:
any progress?

Sprayer:
Can someone make a TL;DR for the entire thread? Ramjam? ...

I'm looking at the MLG guns of icarus rankings and see 10 nicks I never read or stuck to my mind.

AbbyTheRat:
Sprayer, it's people from the MLG directly rather then GoI community. The GoI community need to start challaging each other, to get onto the ladder and actually make it effective.

I suggest actually challenging teams whenever you want to do a scrim for one match. It's worth it and it'll show MLG that we do want to use it. So please!

Alistair MacBain:
If you look at the unranked teams you will see several from the established teams.

Skrimskraw:
I strongly doubt that this will take off if the teams themselves have to challenge eachother etc.

I talked about this sometime ago when we discussed why the competitive scene had to continue even though there was a lot of gamebreaking bugs.

Us players in the teams are completely unable to just play on odd times instead of tight schedule.
What works for the teams in this game is weekly practice vs 1-2 teams for around 2 hours time.

my own team plays on wednesdays and sundays, we can push in another day, but we are already pushing our players too much.

It is going to be so so impossible to challenge other teams to get this off.
Why?

Because all goio teams must consist of minimum 8 players, and if a team cannot find 8 players they cannot play.
MLG page makes it impossible to get last second substitutes, as a lot of subs in this game are part of other teams, and moving them from team to team is just too big of a hazzle.

I want to go back to the 8 players situation.
In a lot of other games you will see 1-5 players participating on the same team, but in goio its minimum of 8. That means that 8 players have to be very dedicated and put as much effort into the game as they can. And tbh how many teams do we have that are capable of this currently? maybe 3.

Tight organizational schedule works. WHen the teams know that on a specific day something is happening and they can participate. This makes it easier for the 8 players to schedule their own calendars and find the time for it with: 1. work and studies, 2. family and friends.

Currently we are looking at the next events being 3v3. Tbh I think that these 3v3 events couldn't have come at a worse time if it is MLG this comunity wants. Maybe 4 clans will be able to produce a pure 3v3 team, and mind you that this is 12 players per team now, even worse problems than with 8 players.

The rest of the teams that are mostly based around 2v2 will not be able to participate in 3v3 if it is run through MLG.
creating a team on MLG site is according to a lot of our clanleaders very confusing, and even joining it is also confusin, I can only imagine how insane it is oging to be to make mixed 3v3 teams.

So now my question is:
What is required for this to work?
And will it work with 8 player teams?
