Tournament 3 rules: let your opinions be heard Mar 26, 2014 18:17:54 GMT

Tournament 3 is a ways off still - we haven't even started to map out a timeline - but I would like everyone to be informed that we will be discussing some possible rule changes.

Ultimately, the rules will be voted upon and decided by the directors only, but we want you to share your thoughts on anything rule related. This can include modifications to existing rules you might like to see, adding new rules entirely, or having some rules done away with entirely.

One thing that has come up, for example, is that a large contingent of players have expressed a desire to see an increased maximum for air units. Is this something you would like to see? Others have suggested AC frags should be disallowed since not everyone has been fortunate enough to win one yet.

One thing we will not change, EVER, is use of AS frags. Aside from that though, I'm willing to let everything else be open for discussion. So share your thoughts and let us know what you think would make tournament 3 better than this one.

Great idea mate, I personally would like there to be a little more creativity in formations, so my suggestion would be that contestants are limited to using a maximum of 1 of a particular unit per formation.

Well personally I feel that it is important to have a limit on air units at least to keep the matches reasonably competitive (imagine going up against 7 planes and you only have 3 units with AA!!!), I know many have been calling to increase it to 2 air units, this could be interesting and add a new dimension, though sadly with the lack of decent AA units FvF matches will always be about taking out the AA units asap! I think keeping it to 3 Nano units makes it more of a challenge and invites greater creativity as well.

Could be fun. Btw, we can test out some of these rules to get a feel for them.

It will depend on how popular this thing is.

Popularity has been growing substantially, from when I pitched the initial concept to where we are now. The downside of increased popularity is the increased demand placed on the directors. Of course, if sponsoring it involved an actual benefit to those participating (and maybe to the directors too), I think it would help with staying motivated to keep this up.

Hey - the current rulez are good.
But I would like to have the possibility to bring in a second aircraft.
AA was and will be essential, but the 2nd aircraft will allow alot more creativity.

Games always have a certain luck envolved.
With the second aircraft, you need to be lucky and good :-)
Meaning, luck become more important which makes the game more interesting - in my opinion....

You did great in establishing this Tournament Enbee! Thx!

p.s.: Another idea I have is to host a speacial tournament - allowing non nano units only. All people will have to start building their formation from zero and even lower lvl guild can join...

We're currently testing out new rules that will allow for a second air unit, and at this point it looks like we will go through with that.

No nano units definitely has my interest in the future but I think it's an opinion strongly in the minority.
