UO TDM weapons only Ladder

Was hoping to see some interest in a TDM weapons only Ladder. Just like Call of Duty only with all the newest weapons, smoke, sprint and graphic enhancements that United Offense has to offer minus the Vehicles and Anti-Vehicle weapons. Our clan server and many other runs this. I personally think this would make an excellent ladder and or league. Any others interested in this style of UO competition?

Isn't there already two tdm ladders...4v4 and 7v7.

check out the "classic" UO ladders, i think that's what you are looking for. read the rule sets on them for more detail of what "classic" entails.

I have checked out the classic ladders. There are two, S&D which we prefer TDM and CTF. Classic ladders still includes the jeeps. What I am proposing is "weapons only" and TDM.

The 4vs4 and 7vs7 TDM ladders have vehicles turned "on".

Then i'd believe you'd wana play cod my friend. UO's vehicles are what make the game great.

Then you wouldn't get the new weapons, maps, smoke and sprint would you?

According to all the people I have talked to on our server and others servers who run the same config, sprint, new weapons, REDIRECT, enhanced graphics and new maps is what makes UO great. And believe me when I say our servers and all the others servers who run weapons only are always packed to their limit. I still hear alot of, if I wanted to play vehicles I would still be playing BF1942 or BF Vietnam.

I am not trying to start any kind of problem, if people enjoy playing COD UO with vehicles, I say have a great time! I am just saying there are a large amount of clans and people who prefer COD:UO for what COD originally was "Weapons".

i personally think that UO has a great balance of vehicles. BF has too many, and it's too heavily empahsized. in UO, vehicles are a away of transport (jeeps) with light firing power, or a stronghold on a strategic point (tanks) with limited mobility. with the panzerfausts... i have no problems combating tanks, and i think it adds a GREAT new level to the gameplay, without changing it too much.

with that said, that's only my opinion and i can clearly see why some people would rather play without the vehicles and just enjoy the new weapons and other features.

if there's enough interest (from enough clans) then it's likely that TWL could start up a ladder for it, but we gotta see interest first (by a good number of people.... approx 15 clans).

I just think tanks take away from skill killing. You can aim and shoot your tank beside someone and still kill him. With weapons you have to actually hit the person, where skill comes into play. Ha ve you ever played on a server with TDM and tanks on? Massive tank fest!! UGH Its annoying because everyone takes a tank and camps in them.

I bet our tank busters could make short work of your tanks, bud. A weapons only ladder does seem like a good idea, the only problem is you would have to restrict the maps greatly. CTF on karkhov would SUCK if you didnt have jeeps.

SniperTek would defintely put teams on UO weapons only ladders here at TWL.

UZA would also join that ladder

I know for a fact that UZA would join this ladder. I'm sure we could get several other clans interested in this as well. We run all TDM maps with no vehicles and our own weapons mod. The server stays busy 24/7. I know there will be some interest in this.

if you think there's enough interest, someone start a new thread and request that only the founder for each squad/clan post up saying they would want to join, that'll make it easy for everyone to keep tabs on just how many teams are interested.

|nq| members play on our UO weapons only server it seems daily. Seems like there are quite a few of your members who like COD:UO weapons play too. In fact there so many clan members who play on weapons only UO servers I am surprised TWL never put these types of ladders when UO was released.
