Ok some of us have been 'discussing' what we want for 2013, and what can make it better, without losing any clans.

First thing I ask of you all is bear in mind 'WHAT YOU WANT' doesn't neccesary please 'everyone' and that some kind of agreement to please everyone is a MUST...!

Some of you want just to play obj, which is fine....BUT....it is no use if all you want to do is run around shooting to win, and wont defend the objective.....and 3 obj maps to choose from is poor (no one likes omaha default.

I have played the 'Hunt' against other clans and got continually spawn killed in allies spawn and to me this defeats the purpose of obj and is absolutely no use.

So I ask this question, why do we not include the DM MAPS so that then you CAN just have a shootout?

Runspeed: yeah yeah... complaints all over the place, some want it 250, some want it 360, so we have a runspeed of 300, right in the middle: remember you have to give and take.....!!!!

Ok. so now we have: Omaha, V2 rocket, The Bridge, The Hunt, Southern France, Destroyed Village, Remagen, Stalingrad, Algiers to choose from. (9 MAPS)

My proposal is: we each play each other twice, one clan chooses a DM map the other a OBJ and play as normal 4 rounds best of 5, then on the return match the reverse is taken with map choices.

This game is 10+ years old and we will lose more people if we stick to just playing the Bridge and the Hunt.

I have already got a Test server running with ALL of the above for you to try at: 109.70.148.37:12252

THIS IS ONLY A TEST SERVER AND IT HAS FAULTS, I NEED YOU TO TELL US WHATS WRONG.....NOW...AND NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF A SEASON.

So TRY it, TEST it then lets DISCUSS it and lets try and bring it up to date.

PLEASE REMEMBER, some of us are not the best match players, and there is NO enjoyment in getting pinned to a spawn area and dying, we want to enjoy inter clan matches, cos if not, some of us will just stick to our own servers......then we dont have a league.....and we wont bother with friendlies either...........

LETS GET IT SORTED>>>>>NOW............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Season 2013 Proposal

First of all many thanks for all your time and effort into this Kenny,

Its important for all clans to get on board with this process so you as clans can input and help shape this..........

For me I like it, In my Opinion thinking back to season 2 when we mixed it with stock and custom OBJ everyone stuck to Stock OBJ's and did not play the customs we voted again for season 3 and ended up with just custom maps - Its earlies day's for this season but I know from my own clan and feed back its been a slow start as the clans are still getting used to the maps but they were available for all many months before we started...............

If we get enough interest in this we would be able to start early and perhaps run the 2 formats but lets do one step at a time........

I would like to have a few meet up's over a couple of nights over the next couple of weeks with all the clans for a run round on the test server so we can get the ball rolling and feed back and also have some fun at the same time............

Happy shooting - Kill em ALL and kill em again

Cheers

Yes Jon, I agree we need ALL clan members to give their input, I also need to add that the maps on server may have some mods in them, which I will remove but before that lets try them first and get some feedback.

On the point regarding custom maps, some members of my clan dont like them, so you see, we need to try to please everyune.

I will do some more work on it this week, and maybe Dave can tidy it up for us when he gets back.

Re: Season 2013 Proposal

Yea agreed - something must be done to improve the image of mohaa.

Custom maps i think should be included - obj ones in particular even though you always get the issue of people not having the maps / wasting time downloading / mohaac setting up to include these customs etc

DM maps - ive played these as matches in leagues when cmohl was in operation.

The only snag is clans dont play for fun in matches and run around and shoot like we do on public servers - we found in this experience that when people spawned on maps like algiers where there are 2 places allies an axis spawn - clans CAMPED in there spawn point for the WHOLE match and never attempted to attack as when it gets to 0 on the time the side with more players won - this i found very boring / frustrating - so the only way of improving / removing that chance is by having random spawn points all over the map - is this possible??

My 2 pence on this

Not 100% sure, but I think that the DM/maps spawn points are more varied and not in the once location, I will have to watch where they are, but Spawn points can be changed easy enough, it just getting spare time to do it.

Re: Season 2013 Proposal

I think a meeting on AAAA TS would be a good idea so we can discuss this further. Maybe the Clan admins here....after they have collected feed back from their clans.

I can only speak on behalf of my clan, in the respect that they want stock obj ( reason for my other post concerning this matter http://www.mohaaaa.co.uk/AAAAMOHAA/content/stock-obj

League wars are meant to be fun....but also people wanna win !
Experienced players want only obj stock.....but obviously it's not everyone's 'cup of tea' that's why i suggested running a seperate obj stock league here for those clans that want it, as well as the one we currently have.

I think also this will attract other clans here to the league.

DM maps could be fun, but they are really HUGE, and I think having random spawn points would be very bad.

This way it won't be a team game, it would be public server where you have to go run and shoot.

If you want to play DM maps, I suggest to keep it the way it is, AT LEAST we know some of those spawns which would make it easier to know where to go, and how to play and what tactics needed.

I agree to some extent with your argument on this Solo - but i think it is better to fight and make a rendezvous point on the map for your members to get to that area rather than spawning in one area already and then sitting and waiting for the map to end and seeing who has more members alive after camping the whole round - 5mins x 10 rounds = 50mins of sitting around getting frustrated is not my idea of a entertaining match for me personally.

Re: Season 2013 Proposal

Some good points above - please do get the ball rolling on this - I am just an admin so this is where the community must work together and move forward on these ideas - Their is also no reason why a couple of clans cant start their own small league if you dont like the existing direction on these topics its just a case of mucking in together to get it setup and running

Happy shooting - Kill em ALL and kill em again

Cheers
