Opening Cups: Final rules and information! ***UPDATE***
| |||
![]() The first matchweek of both the Squadrush and Conquest Opening Cups is due to start today. While we've had loads of discussion about them, we'd like to present you the final rules for this Opening Cup and give you the last details.
Scheduling your matchesThe matches should be played in the week they are scheduled in, this means that you have from the sunday it was scheduled until the next saturday to play this match. Arrange these matches in the matchcomments. If your opponent does not react or if there are any other problems, please open a protest.The RulesBased on the poll, where the vast majority of the voters want to experience the game in it's full glory, and experiences from the german admin team, who had already played a squadrush cup, we have decided on the following rules:Global Rules The global server settings: » Friendly Fire: on » PunkBuster: on » Killcam: off » 3D-spotting: off » Hardcore: off Forbidden weapons: » M60 » Carl Gustav » Mortar Matchmedia » Round-start screenshots » Scoreboard screenshots of each round (not mandatory for squadrush, when server keeps crashing) Conquest Specific Each matchweek there will be one map. Each team will play both sides once and the outcome will be based on round wins or losses. Possible outcomes are: 1-1, 2-0 and 0-2. Starting the round: 1. There are 2 squads with all players, only one guy of each squad is allowed to spawn 2. One of each write ready in the chat when they are ready 3. All 4 players (2 each team) take a screenshot on which you can see both parties "READY" on screen 4. All 4 players (2 each team) upload these screenshots to the matchmedia => radar proves two of each team are alive in their mainbase and the last 6 guys are dead Squadrush Specific Each matchweek there will be one map. Each team will play both sides 3 times and the outcome will be based on round wins or losses. Possible outcomes are: 3-3, 5-1 and 2-4, etc. All rounds must be played. This is important in case of multiple teams with the same amount of points at the end of the group phase. If a team leaves earlier on, the remaining team will get the remaining rounds. It is not allowed to blow up M-coms with C4, Grenade Launcher, Anti-tank mine, RPG or any other explosive (except for bombplanting obviously). Starting the round: 1. Only one guy of each team is allowed to spawn with a squad with the 3 other guys dead 2. Both write ready in the chat when they are ready 3. Both take a screenshot on which you can see both parties "READY" on screen 4. Both teams upload these screenshots to the matchmedia => radar proves only one of each team is alive and in his mainbase and the last 6 guys are dead ![]() To stay up to date, be sure to follow us on Twitter and idle #esl.bfbc2 on Quakenet IRC. ***UPDATE*** Clarification of the READY-Screenshots-Rule //your Admin team

This was done to avoid medic spam. Teams have to find a good balance between kits now. This succesfully worked in the german squadrush cup aswell.

Gl or rockets need no Teamplay
Phireman
Yes, now we got 2 ptoblems instead of 1. There is still gonna be paddlewar.. AND GL war.. attacking will use Paddles,, Defence will use GL.
Deactivate em both ffs.
Bentzon
grumbly
aLo
Hard but important to guarantee a various and exciting competitive gameplay.
Phireman
As i see it, we got 1 major problem. Medics.
Medics and paddlewar is the big problem we have and instead of balancing them you introduced another introduced class or weapon. If you duck behind cover, dont sit there more than 1 milisec or its gonna be blown to shit, its not hard to defend when the enemy has NO cover and you have unlimited GL grenades.
Now, creating a new problem hardly solves the first one in this subject. IMO postpone the tournament or do whatever you can to restrict medics. DICE wake up! Make this game Clanplayable.
NOTE THAT IM TALKING ABOUT 4v4, THESE ARE SMALL MAPS!
YauGeniuS
1. Only one guy of each team is allowed to spawn
2. Both write ready in the chat when they are ready
3. Both take a screenshot on which you can see both parties "READY" on screen
Didnt understand that.. Is somebody can explain this for me???
DoctorQuinn
it's quite impossible to fight against spamers with only 20 tickets.

4v4 squad rush are much smaller maps with one central objective.
Phireman
Well basicly in 4v4 your WHOLE team needs to get on the same team,, when you are ready 1 guy in your team spawns and tells the other team that youre ready to start,, then you screenshot this and everyone else spawns.. Game starts.
TuDuu
Just play the freaking game with those rules :S:S
mr.fear
We don't want full LG spam too, stop to make bullshit.
Sum
To complicated for now, while there is not yet a good solution for this.
Sum
The week with Atacama Desert, your team does not have an opponent.
Fulger
better then baning all the weapons.
i don't like the nubetubes or the rpg, but it cannot be perfect. anyway, it's better then no weapons
have fun everyone and stop acting like pussies
