Next cups


We are happy to announce some great cups for the future.


Advent cup
The Advent cup is a 1on1 cup that is structed very similar to the SWBF2 Classcups and will be played every Advent except of the first one. Every cup will be played with different classes for example only sniper or only rocket.


2on2 cup
Since a lot of people were asking for a 2on2 Ladder we are going to organize at least a 2on2 cup. The cup will start at the 27 of november. Further informations about rules and sign ups will be announced in another news


Match between teammates



We already told you that in the new 5on5+ ladder you have the opportunity to challenge and play against your own clanmates (i.e. alpha vs beta). But to limit this a bit, only every 4th match of you can be played vs teammates.


Fundamentel rule change in the 1on1 Ladder



To increase the activity of the 1on1 ladder we decided to let you play on self hosted servers.This can only be done if both sides agree. In addition to that a server report must be made if you play on a selfhosted server.

Example :

---------------------------------

Prematchreport of the server host:

We play on my selfhosted server

---------------------------------

Prematchreport of the opponent:

I agree

---------------------------------


Player names



We are also thinking about a rule that limits your ingame nick to 14 keys. We decided this because a lot of player names were not recognizable on the IP screens.


Star Wars Battlefront @ Xfire


If you still know some people who did not yet join the Xfire Group of Star Wars Battlefront, persuade them to do right now! It's far more easy to get in contact with the admins and to be informed with news in the ESL regarding Star Wars Battlefront that way!

Star Wars Battlefront Xfire Group!

    "self hosted" means dedicated server on own PC?. Because host server by normal game is impossible for 1on1. 1on1 request correct tickets, cps, bleeding system and no tanks. It is only possibly play correct 1on1 on the modded dedicated server.
    yea^^
    not good to play on 9999ping server :P

    but I like the advent cup

    This month's ladder:

    3on3 Ladder Signup
    Time period:

    22st November - 6st December 2009

    it was 5vs5 in the beginning so it's a joke or it's both league?
    when can we sign up for 2on2 cup?
    Not yet ;) We willannounce it, when the sign up starts.
    @kenobi , ESL on swbf is everyday a joke ^^
    the real new is : malicious a FRENCH admin. (now trial but nearly not )
    legion-chaos for admin !!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
    Legion chaos for comment ban. good god this guy's spamming is a royal pain in the ass -.-
    I hope that the time period of every match is gooing to be done and if a team doesn't appear defwin will be assigned, because I think that everyone doesn't want that the cup goes 2 Month like the old
    the defwin cup was cool like the 1vs1 trooper cup in swbf2 xD

    good god this guy's spamming is a royal pain in the ass -.-

    he is not the only one

    <<<< i spam too :D

    Still trying to figure out what do you mean Legion Chaos ^^
    Congratz Malicious !!
    And the others...I don't give a shit on these guys.
    Don't know them. ....
    BUT as I wrote in some comments before :
    In my opinion it should be forbidden for an admin to be a part of an active clan !!!
    PREJUDICE !!!!!
    You will see what I am talking about.....watch out !!
    ={la}= have now his own black magician french admin( he is not really in LA but msc is down )

    lets play card

    ready set go ....

    spam attack mali !!!!!!!
    frost hp down to 6

    woooooohooooooooo
    Congratz Malicious !!
    And the others...I don't give a shit on these guys.
    Don't know them. ....


    yoyoyo its cryme tyme ouech la cité de berlin ni** ta race xD

    malicious i love you but i dont understand what do you mean too , we cant be married if you dont understand me xD
    Thanks FROST and I know what you mean but as you can see it's not really my case well I wont do mistakes that you think some admins did whatever if this is true !
    Please Legion ChAos you should stop to spam even in french it does make any sense -.-
    what happened if i take 3 PPs more ? i've got 12 PPs now , can i win a prize ?
    see? that's why he needs a comments ban. PPs are useless for punishing someone who doesn't play in the ESL but just spams the crap out of every friggin topic.
    if i havent play on ESL i have to be lvl 0 : ><
    maybe i havent play a lot but i never use some cheats

    noob down

    if youre not agree with that go f*** yourself
    *sigh*
    what a stupid child
    dont be angry sphinx swbf is just a game this is not the RL
    On the contrary to you I don't waste my RL with posting dumbass comments in every friggin topic or match on the ESL page xD
    stop to be a kid this is a serious subject stop the flood plz
    guys this spamming is useless... from both(i mean sphinx and legion-chaos)
    ^.^
    O_o
    I am for a time period or 7 days, it takes a long time, but every match will be played and not only defwins. Between are christmas and new years start ( silvestre ) so many people will drive away for 3 or 4 days, so I think 7 days would be good for many matches
    Legion chaos and Frost and Sphinx and Belk ftw.

    Nyz and Richi and Alexx and Retender and Ben Kenobi and GG and Kakashi and Givil and Linkin and Mali ftl.

    Weekly comment done, see you next week :)
