Is it possible to set a max in overtime , like 15min or so when its a draw ? :

Just an idea, but what about giving the win to the team with most total amount of points?
Meaning we go to sudden death, and after the configured time we get the count down and if is still a Tie, the team that has a higher total amount of points wins...

Sometimes it's fair to give a win to a team that has a great defense even if they don't score. (or maybe not let us discuss this)

Ann0ying Is it that important to win a game ? First start playing normal like an adult if you want to win a game . It doesn't need a winner , in soccer you don't always have a winner , in clanwars neither.

...HAHAHA!
I see we have a lefty here. Little by little, I'll throw in here and a little there... Maybe no one will notice. And in a few months the whole act will be stuffed and it will turn out that it is no longer CTF ComboGib but DM+MH in Camper mode and with an upgraded main weapon Grapple Hook with a scope. 😃

Why not give the win to the team with the most grabs? Seems more fair then the team with the most points considering the team inbalance lately...

Ann0ying

Jeez... guys it was just an idea (and I think a fair one..)

Idea seemed fine to me 🙂 About the same as they come to a decision in boxing in the event of a tie. Still plenty of time to think about and discuss the options.

Does anyone know what happens with ties in tournament mode? If it doesn't go to overtime in that mode, what indicators does smartCTF and/or the game give to the players at match end when there is a tie?

Ann0ying Take it easy man. I like to joke around as much as you like to camp. 🙂

Behold my prophecy from the balancer thread!!! I now also see 3 hour Niven matches.

But seriously we had some good matches tonight even a good thorns match and that went normal time or maybe a brief overtime. I don't think this is a real problem.

Ann0ying

Jacey I don't think it's fair to give the win to the team that has most grabs, nor give the win to the team that has most flag kills.
Simple because then the people will just grab for nothing (not putting effort in score), or will just camp by the flag (not grabbing at all)...

Therefore the team with most points should win...

Ooper

Don't think most grabs would work, you can easily cheese it.

Jacey

Ann0ying

Just DM will be the team with the most points...so you can easily cheese it too! At least the 1 team with the most grabs makes an effort, cheesy or otherwise.

Ann0ying

Jacey not DM.... you get more points when you cover people and when you seal the base.
1 kill = 1 point BUT 1 cover = much more points... (sealing the base as well)

therefore the team with more points should win.

But this is just my opinion...

Mr. Annoying and his ilk will be surprised in a moment if this is implemented.
My opinion is that when gamers with above-average aim, instead of playing ctf, will score stealth points to win the game, then players like Mr. Annoying, Mr. Sasole, Mr. Caligula and many others will be "swept away". And I don't think we want that. They are who they are but without them it won't be the same.
...but I can also be wrong.

Ann0ying

i don't agree.. I think that in the event of sudden death every player will still try to do their jobs (either defend or attack) despite of there's a limit time or if after 5min the team with more points win...

as I said I get more points covering and sealing the base rather than fragging therefore in sudden death stay only fragging is not a very wise choice ..

The Balancer seems to be working perfectly so why are people still complaining? Thank You SnowGuy !

Ann0ying

just another though.. summing each team points might not be the best way as one team might have 1 extra player.

It should be the average points per team.
