TWL 5v5 Infantry Season 1

Historical capture recovered from the Wayback Machine · captured 2007-03-27 · 57 posts
Alright guys, here we go.

To answer some of the community's requests, we're going ahead and using BFPro. for this Season's maplist. There's less nade spamming with the longer reload time. It'll make a perfect fit for 5v5 infantry.

As well, the good people over at BFPro made up some infantry only maps that have never been used in competition until now. There are no vehicles, and the flags are more centred on 5v5 infantry. (Ex. Bocage - the 2 bridge flags are now the main spawns so you don't have to walk all the way from your main.)

Season will begin NOVEMBER 18th and will be played Thursday nights. The Ruleset will be up shortly, so get your teams organized and your rosters set guys.

Maplist:

Pre-Season:

1.Berlin Pro
2.Stalingrad Pro
3.Bocage Pro

Regular Season:

Week 1: Kharkov (BFPro Infantry)
Week 2: Battleaxe Pro
Week 3: Caen (custom)
Week 4: Stalingrad (BFPro Infantry)
Week 5: Bocage (BFPRo Infantry)
Week 6: Berlin Midnight
Week 7: Abandoned City (Custom)
Week 8: Berlin (BFPRO Infantry)

Playoff maps will be released after the Regular Season is complete.

We're still taking sign-ups for teams so if you wanna participate, go ahead and join.

As always, if you guys have any concerns or questions, feel free to post here or message myself or grassy on irc @ #twl_bf on gamesurge.

Looking very good...

We should also look into evening out the divisions. No offense to any teams, but nearly all the top ten/"good" teams are in the same division.

only 4 out of the 7 teams in our conference have enough players on them. actually those 3 only have 1 player each on them. are most of the conferences like that? what about a cutoff point before they get dropped? its gonna jack up the schedule if 2/5 of the teams dont show up every week.
Yep, it's basically the reason we're giving 2 weeks prior to the season starting. Everybody's getting their rosters in order and players added. When we get close to the start date and the teams are still as is, we'll re-organize to make up for the least amount of forfeits possible.

Yay...because so far it's SoH, HOT, MaD, and RoM that has enough peeps.

Yeah, no worries man.

It'll be a great season, a lot of good teams in there - I'm stoked to see what's gonna happen

I respectfully request to play Fall of Berlin PRO this season.
Hit me up on irc Hak and we'll talk about it.

ClanBR1.net
Don't worry. CCI has 130 members to pull from, and we're going full force recruiting and getting everyone set up on TWL. We will not be one of the groups getting cut. :-) I look forward to seeing you guys on the battlefield!
Awesome, great to hear it.

*** Season will begin NOVEMBER 17th and will be played Thursday nights.***

Isn't November 17th a Wednesday? Is it that the pre-season games will be played on the 17th and the actual season starts the day after which is Thursday the 18th ?
yes this is looking very good... looking forward to it.. gj admins this will be fun =)
With No Release of .70 BFPro for Linux servers yet how are we to proceed??
You can always contact the BFPro staff at http://www.bfpro.com - or you can speak with Helo, Beta, NoDice or any other staff member on irc @ #bfpro on gamesurge.

Looks like the number of teams got trimmed. They should do the same thing with the NHL and MLB.


** If you put an advertisement for a competing webserver company in your sig again after it was explicitly changed to something else because of this reason, be prepared to take a long vacation from TWL **
IM excited, some goood stuff yall got brewin over here @ twl. Keep up the good work!
The .71 full server install is a .zip file and can be downloaded at the mirror sites. It has successfully been run on several Linux boxes with no reported issues.

TY grassy.
what time are the matches being played on thursday nights? can't find a 5v5 league rule set anywhere...
Default time is 9:30 EST.

ClanBR1.net
Dumb question: is the map being played Thursday 11/18/04 MOD: bfpro MAP: berlin_pro_inf if not can you let me know the exact MOD and MAP name. Later-REBEL
It's not Berlin Infantry, it's just Berlin_Pro

ClanBR1.net
Roger that Stepside. The bf_pro has vechiles but bf_pro_inf does not that is why I was wondering. Thanks for your help.
You betcha.

ClanBR1.net
So we play on the map that has vechiles even though it's an infantry only league? lol

The Few, The Proud, The Crazy - Part 1 Our New BF2 Movie
You can ask that question to the 65 teams on the infantry ladder, where bfpro isn't used.

ClanBR1.net
Yeah, but BF Pro is used here and we have the option of playing on maps without the vechs spawning while the ladder doesn't. Just would make sense to me and all...

The Few, The Proud, The Crazy - Part 1 Our New BF2 Movie
Uhh hey I have a question. In the rules the timer is set at 0. So this match won't have a time limit and it'll go just by tickets unlike the ladder which has a time limit?

The Few, The Proud, The Crazy - Part 1 Our New BF2 Movie
There should be one of two changes in the rules. Either:

1. Make the round time 20 minutes.

2. Lower the tickets to 150 or 100

No time limit and high tickets makes for long boring rounds.
^^^^^!

No doubt. This is what pre-season's for, all the feedback you want, go ahead and post in here.

ClanBR1.net
I agree. Time limits are a good thing. Or if no time limit, change the ticket count to 100%.

The Few, The Proud, The Crazy - Part 1 Our New BF2 Movie
That has always been a major difference in the ladders and the leagues. One being only one map played, another being no time limit.




Yes but in a 5v5 league kills are much fewer and far between. When both teams are locked and there's no bleed 225 ticket ratios make for matches that will last a couple hours.
