Weekly One-on-One/ GR Tournaments

[TheJx4]

I'd like to suggest a new feature, which is pretty much geared towards shooters.

Every week, two GR members could be paired up against each other and could play a series of matches in whatever FPS is voted for that month.

So, one month could be Black Ops, the next could be Reach and the one after that could be MW3.

It could be streamed live, but since a lot of games are adopting a Theater mode it wouldn't be necessarily.

We could also do team matches, and have factions and whatnot, I just thought that would be pretty cool. It'd be our own little MLG.

What platform?

Can it be PC - since we all have PC's, and preferably something we can download for free? Thats the only way I see large scale participation, but its a good idea. (Also, I'm not a big fan on the console fps - that could only be me though) =\

One on one really removes the whole point of community events. And, well, playing online in general. So, no.

Which is why I also suggested Teams/Factions.

There could be 3 different ones in one week.
One for each major platform.

Just ignore Longo. When God was about to create women Longo told him not to because he didn't think it was necessary.

At which point He turned women from being normal with a sexy body to, well, women as we know them.

Good lord, I fucked that one up.

Regardless, I stand by my point. Especially when you mention MLG. Though that's more personal preferance, because e-sports disgust me.

I just meant in the tournament aspect, and streaming the matches.

One-on-one brings out the true nazi in people.

 

[used44]

More community playdates!

...yup, that goes on the ole Sig list.

I kind of agree with this, only televised esports piss me off. I'm not talking starcraft types I'm talking the Halo/CoD types. I wouldn't mind it as much if they promoted more PC games and not console ones. or if they played games I liked

 

[TheJx4]

Also, if we end up doing this....can it actually be called Bromance ShooterFest the Movie?

Put it up for a vote.

I'm up for a tourny. But I dont think one-on-one is cool - definitely team matches. Maybe we can have teams of 3, and do something in the form of a league.

Plus we could make our own team names :lol:

Exactly what I was thinking.
I was kinda wondering though, aren't most of you 360 only?

 

[UrbanMasque]

WHAT PLATFORM?!

...pc. it has to be PC if you want maximum participation.

 

[TheJx4]

I think we should shoot for multi-platform games.

 

[UrbanMasque]

^but how will we play against each other? Tally scores on levels?

 

[TheJx4]

Well, no.

I meant like, if the game for the week is Black Ops, then it'll be played on PS3, 360, and PC. (If there are enough players).

Teams can span across multiple platforms.
So if you're a part of Team Bret on PS3, you can be a member of another team if there is no Team Bret on PC.

That would cause an imbalance though...
So maybe the Teams could have Leaders, then second-in-command, etc.
So maybe Bret doesn't have a gaming PC, you could lead the PC division of Team Bret.

IDK, just brainstorming.

 

[UrbanMasque]

I thought the purpose of this was to play against each other
