ET & league play?

so, if ET is released during the break, will the next TWL season remain in the same format? what about the future of TWL league play in relation to ET?

ET will have some long matches =/

Actually - campaign is all you will need for a match. I think a single campaign of 25 min a peice isn't that long. Calculate 3 matches - at most, 1hr 15m. It takes some clans longer then that to ready up.

Also, the map-roations are so easy to setup. You can even set a TB on the 3rd round - easily. And the best thing about it, your skills carry over so it's no big deal with regards to who gets what side.

Man, all I can say is - since ET came out, I haven't even visited a shrub, OSP or main server. This game is what I've been waiting for. I wish some ppl would grasp the concept and figure it out already, and quit TK'g me when I'm a Covert-Ops.

Right now, we've got it down to where all you need is a Med, Eng, and Cov-Ops to complete the Obj. in just a little over 2min. Thats not too long now is it?

Well there can be various ladders that include Campaign as well as Stopwatch styles of play. I do think it's a little to early to speculate on what exactly is right for league play but initial impressions would have to say that Campaign and Stopwatch are front runners for such. Team sizes need to be taken into consideration 7vs7 is prolly best suited for both styles of play maybe even 6vs6 but anything lower than that may not be suited for large maps we'll have to see the rest of the maps before that can be determined I guess.

With that said it's prolly true that some matches are going to be long but that is attributed to good defense and all that stuff but like Abit says there are ways to complete the objective (at least on fuel dump) without haveing to wait around for the secondary objectives to be complete. With the addition of Covert Ops it changes the dynamics of the game dramatically and allows for better, more sneaky strats to be utilized.

I truly enjoy ET - BazookaB you da man! You should come play with us at our server bro. I've got a post thats gettin some good feedback for server admins at splashdamage. Visit the server admins sticky thread.
BTW - our server is 67.39.58.66:27960 Clan[xg|Campaign-1]
We're cycling 1 round of Campaign, 2 rounds of Stopwatch, 2 rounds of Obj. and 4 rounds of LMS. It's a blast bro.
Once you get past the somewhat sketchyness of the game. It's all about ownage baybe.
Also, if you PM me at http://www.XtremeGL.com/ClanXG i'll give you a private slot pw. There's not much chalk on our server - we've got quite a few clans that pair up on the server and work well as teams which makes the game that much more fun!

ROFL.. God I love the Covert Ops class. It's so funny to be hangin out with your enemy and their oblivious to the fact that I've been following the Engrs giving coordinates to my mates as to where they need to stay clear of. Not only that, watching ppl just lookin at me asking for ammo or health.. ROFL and I just non chalontly walk away like I was a n00b. heh
But it's also a pain in the but at times.. You tend to get TK'd alot by those few that have no idea of whats goin on. Hehe, but it's fun fun fun!
