While I love me some TF2, I think I'm going to hold off and just bring my 360 controller. ;)

Your not bringing your PC?  Remember there will be other PC games being played and not just tournaments.  We will be running a COD4 server throughout the event for example.

On the dedicated servers we have the following:

COD 4
TF2
HL2
UT2k4
Q2
Crysis
UT2k4
UT3
BF2
BF 2142

And a WoW server as well.

We usually have at the min COD 4, TF2, UT3 or UT 2k4 and the WoW server running the entire event.  So there are plenty of games to get into on PC and if there are things not on the server people want ran more then willing to add them.

I would actually like to see some Crysis action going on.  I know it takes a big pc (or laptop in some cases), but I think it would be fun.

Well we have the needed server for it now.   Server requirements are as high as the client.  When I first looked into the server I was like you gotta be kidding me.   ;D

The staff talked about COD 4 being put back on this time and for most upcomming LAN's as it is the most popular game right no so we are looking at either adding COD 4 or replacing Fear with COD 4 as there is alot of interest in having it again this time around.

So with that in mind there will be something COD4 will post the specifics in a day or 2.

While I love Fear Combat, it's been awhile since I've played it and it seems to have a rather limited audience. I would be totally game for another COD4 tournament.

Man, I want to do the Halo 3 2v2. I need a partner tho. Do I just bring my xbox controller or what?


Title: Re: August Tournaments posted
Post by: Renegade on July 17, 2008, 10:34:16 PM
For this tournament we will have 2 360's setup on large screen projectors split screen for each team.   If you want to bring your 360 to game on as well that is encouraged as all players get a table spot, power, and network connection for 1 pc or 1 console system.

Also you can post in this forum that you need a partner and see who else needs one also.

will there be internet access at the lan for everyone so dureing downtime we can play on the internet with our buddies.


Title: Re: August Tournaments posted
Post by: TinyElvis on July 20, 2008, 04:00:16 PM
Internet Access will be available, but the speeds may not be what everyone is hoping for. While they will be fairly decent, I plan on blocking a lot of ports associated with Torrents and etc.. However, the subject has been discussed with regards to Steam, and I am looking into this a little further, because Steam is a POS that will kill the speeds quick with it's downloads/patches.

Do you guys know what maps are going to be run for the TF2 tourney?

I have not picked them yet.   We are still open to suggestions though.   Will get them picked this week.
