Proposal for upcoming UT2004 iGIB cups. - [LogiteX] - {UE}  - Tue 15 Jul 17:00

I have been playing UT for many years, and it has come to my attention that many many maps are becoming overplayed and over skilled. Players know routes like their own mothers, and know spawn points like where your dog takes a dump every morning.

I have been speaking to several players in the community (plus some CB peeps) about this, and i think it will make UT2004 iGIB a whole new game, and will keep it alive for years to come!

I am proposing a ClanBase Mapping Team (only iGib atm, but other modes may prosper later on). As it stands, maps, like i say, are being overplayed, public servers are dominated by maps such as CTF-Bloxeh (and the new attempt to make it "new" with CTF-Bloxeh-v2) and CTF-Checkmate (Which has seen a few different versions). I have spent the last month or so mapping my brains out, trying to make them public, and noticed.

The aim of this project is to get a group of mappers together (from the iGib community) who know what players want, and play themselves. This way, when a cup comes around, maps which have been created prior to the cup, will be the only ones playable in the cup, this way, Clans from Div1 to Div3 or worse, can compete properly, no clan can dominate one map, its all virgin territory. We may even see clans of Div1 being honestly and fairly won over by, say, Div3 clans. Lets bring a new look to UT2004 iGib people! and refresh out gaming needs!

If this can be done, it wud be great for a game which may die a horrible death when players MAY end up being bored of the same damn maps!

Do it for UT2004, Do it for yourselves...

thx people

any questions? #LgX on Quakenet .

Hi lgx

I saw this post on the private CB forums posted by VARDY and I was definatly interested in helping out (beta-test wise and input-wise, mostly a defenders pov)

Seeing you're into iCTF, why didn't you pm me (ut2k4 and ut3 iCTF mod supervisor)?

I like the initiative and I hope you get some replies soon

Contact me on irc or by CB msg

grtz Denk

I have opened an IRC Channel for any known mappers to join, if you want to join the team, just let me know, i am in the process of finding mappers to join up, modders + 3D modellers are also needed and welcome.

#Mapping.UT2004.iCTF

More channels will be made when we get more modes which can be modded or Mapped

peace!

Tbh I would never expect anything great from a forum like this... anyway an own website would be more than enough and I'm sure a way more people would take this whole project serious

edit: just realized I've said the same as denk

It would be AWESOME to have some new, non spammy/lame insta maps on the publics. I'm sick and tired after playing checkmateCWL for the last 4 years, and i'm completely bored of these maps that have 3 different routes you can take (leading to camping :/)

I would be more than happy to test and offer my own ideas for you mappers

Well... Sadly I am no mapper but this really sounds interesting. Maps are really getting overplayed idd... I miss some of the old school maps, and new maps. But ppl seems to not wanna play then since its new, and they dont know it and they only think about the stats... So they might get low eff or a to few flag caps.

But to answer your question LogiteX. Go for it m8. Here is the cup, here are the legal maps. And here is the rules. Aint harder than that. the clans that dont like it. well... sad for them.
