Any spam or non constructive posts will be deleted...

[Mr.Kaizer]

Allow r_drawdecals 0 compared to the currently r_drawdecals 1.

It basically removes all the rubbish on the ground like paintcans and pieces of paper. Increases your FPS quite much allowing players with crappier computers to run the game better. Will post some screenshots asap.

I'd like to see Creek removed. It's a terrible map.

[Virus]

I'd like to see Creek removed. It's a terrible map.

I'll second that..

Oh and also allow double tap :)

[Gurk_dk]

The only things we want to change are the use of Noobtube, maps are to small for the use of that weapon.

new maprotation would be nice.

maps out of the rotation, hmm.. creek is a map where you 95% of the time locked to attack only 1 bombsite, because the other are to easy to defend 1 man. Other maps would be showdown and wetworks because of the size to small and narrow.

Perks are ok with me and the Rangers.

Maybe a new way of scoring points could also be nice, i mean that as things are now you can score 0(loss), 2(2draw maps) 3(1map win), 4(draw map+1map win), 6(2map win).
It should be more like a soccer matchs. 0(loss), 1(draw), 3(match win). But to do this rounds must be un-equal. so 1 map does not end up draw.

Also a better pusnishment system. To get clans to up there effort to bring there things in order..

r_drawdecals 0

No Noobtubes.

Change map rotation. Any S&D league that includes maps like creek, downpour, countdown & cargoship cant be taken serious. I hope the powers that be come to the realisation that these maps are totally unsuitable for s&d gametype. There is 1 big reason why these maps are never played by any clans with a grain of commonsense, they suck balls for s&d.:banghead

Also the option to play with perks off. Im sure my clan is not the only clan that prefers perks to be off. And to keep the disputes from occuring you could even have it that the default setting is perks on, but if both clans agree to perks off then the option is there.So even if 1 clan wants them on and the other wants them off, u revert to default setting- Perks on.

[Studek]

ok lots of info..... keep it coming :)

just for the reocrd if both clans agree in match arranging tubes clays can be left off...

Then clandle will be like every other league if you take away countdown and downpour and cargoship

creek should go :D

EDIT:

Steady aim has to go. People have problem with dead silence but are fine with with a perk what allows you to run and gun and not much care about aiming?

At least you can hear people coming with dead silence!

Steady aim + bog + creek to go

[RiGGs]

Remove creek, china town, cargo ship and strike for me. Bloody awful maps.

[Billie]

Thank you for all your input. It is great to see everyone getting involved and letting us know what is liked and disliked.

Clan polls will be setup shortly for all your suggestions. Please note that there is 1 vote per clan so do please make sure that you discuss each option between your clan and get a majority vote before voting.

Also to concur what Studek has previously stated, if both clans want perks off then they can be turned off.

Please keep your opinions coming so that we can make sure that season 6 is what the community want.

Would it be possible to get rid of dust? maps to go, downpour, creek.

[kev19]

Would it be possible to get rid of dust? maps to go, downpour, creek.

Yes that dust is so annoying.

[buster]

All sounds good,
The only bit I would like to see changed is the checking of an opposing clan before a match,
Could we make it the CL or WA of each clan must make sure there teams ready for wars,
And that the team they play can check this after a match as well, say 2 or 24 hours after as a dead line? Something on those lines,
At the minute it kind of looks like the clan ready for a war is getting penalised for a CL who hasn’t got his clan sorted. Think this would get matches to kick off quicker and get all CLs Wa s to be prepared well in advance, those ready wont have any worries,
Those who aren’t have no one to blame but them self’s, i have seen these probs with this a lot over the seasons .
One more sorry , any way to remove the “x” when shooting through a wall when u hit someone blind ? Think it would make it a bit harder and interesting if it was removed ..

[Studek]

Rules are being looked at..... need to make fair, but also each clan needs to make sure the other clan is legal...... bad house keeping all round this season tbh

[Mr.Kaizer]

Yes that dust is so annoying.

Dust aka smoke/fog on in the air?

[Gurk_dk]

Yes that dust is so annoying.

But its a part of the game to make it look real.. so let it stay for reality..

And anotherthing Kev19.. if you want to play without perks, why not join one of the XXXXX other leagues/ladders/cup where they offers that.. no need to makes such dramatic changes in clandle. Some of us are heres because of Clandles changes.. :)

[Gurk_dk]

another thing that could be nice. is a re-write of the Rules information.

I think theres a lack of information. And some information are needed to be painted a bit more out and colorfull.

example of what i think is a well written rule information.
LINK (http://www.esl.eu/eu/cod4/league/winter2009/playoffs/rules/#rule_10)

I dont say it should be the same.

[JIMBO]

leave Creek on ...its a challenging map and should be in rotation twice :booty

All maps excluding "shipment/killhouse are a challenge and does test clans overall playing ability and resolve over the season ....if we start getting picky what maps we want to play we will all end up playing home maps and then it becomes very boring and uncompetitive.

leave hitblips on ..I need em to flush Cossie out of hiding :)

leave steady aim on..its a very popular perk :)

leave dust on... kai just wants a clearer shot with his sniper rifle ;)

I would like to suggest/moot an idea about forming a cod CL committee/council... overseer by clandle admin for any future game changes.

Will have a nose through...... have started on this already and I've left some provisional ideas for other admins to comment on :ahhhh


Jimbo, Im liking the idea also... :cong

[jam!e]

Also have a rule on forum behavior! If they say noughty words/abuse some one they get a warning. Do it again they lose points repeat they lose more points etc Clean up the forum behavior

remove bomb names!

Also the voting system for it seems fantastic :cong

[Studek]

If they say noughty words/abuse some one they get a warning.

All naughty / rude words should be XXXX automatically.... so how do you know if it was naughty or someone just x'ing ?

[Mr.Kaizer]

We are in other leagues. There is no harm at looking at other ladders and leagues either when wanting to improve Clandle.

Edit

If you call camping for 10 rounds on defence challenging on Creek then you are for the birds m8. there is no challenge to playing creek. Its up there with downpour for totally unplayable S&D maps. I cant see the point in putting in 1 sided maps on a map rotation.

Steady aim has no place in any sort of league or ladder. If you haven't developed some sort of aim at this stage then i think you should /uninstall cod4. Seriously what self respecting player would proudly proclaim that a vital part of his weapons set/perks is steady aim?

[Virus]

I agree, creek is evil. Replace it in the map rotation with an extra overgrown or crash that *nearly* everyone likes playing.

Not bothered about steady aim, I don't even notice that much of a difference as I sight up nearly every shot.

I don't know why double tap is disabled, it only makes the gun fire quicker - It may give some of the lower damage weapons a chance against the AK's which would be quite interesting.

Oh, we should replace "knifing for sides" with:
All standing in a circle with last stand on and dropping a nade, whoevers team is left standing wins :D (a joke of course)

[Billie]

h, we should replace "knifing for sides" with:
All standing in a circle with last stand on and dropping a nade, whoevers team is left standing wins

I like this idea :shocked:

Votes will be posted shortly so can you all please make sure that your clan leaders are looking out for them. Thank you all for your input :cong

[RiGGs]

Id take out China Town before Creek tbh. The map is complete bollocks. Another map I would remove is Strike. I think we should also look at adding in their place a couple of custom maps.

[Gurk_dk]

WTF.. :S

China town and strike are good maps.. both of them are 2 side maps.
Both of them also brings the rush-bombplant and a longer b.site away.

Creek, wetworks, showdown are bad maps in IMO.. because of the 1 sides

[Mr.Kaizer]

IMO you can keep the maps. Yes, Creek is awfull and pretty onesided, yet there is always a winner managing to pick up the 1 important round - thus proving themselves as a better team. It's the crappy maps like Downpour and Creek that makes it worth playing in Clandle - completly different from all the other leagues.

Other than some tweaks in the config (drawdecals and fog) the only thing I would like to see go are some of the perks. I wouldn't miss dead silence or steady aim tbh, even though I can understand why people use it. IMO it would make the league a bit more competative, without losing the special twist in Clandle.

Apart from that I got nothing to add at the minute. As the rules have been rewritten along with the config, there's not alot left to be said. Just want to thank the admins for making the effort required in running this league, and helping our sorry arses getting our "fun-shot" every week ;)

[Gurk_dk]

I know many players that would be lost without Dead silence. I play with dead silence.. and i have made my playing style from the use of Dead silence. So i would be a major issue for me without the that perk.

[RiGGs]

Well everyone has maps that they dislike. Creek, Wetworks, Showdown, Shipment, China Town and Strike to me aren't good maps to play in my opinion. As I said before we should possibly look into adding 1 or 2 custom maps although people would need to ensure they have the map in advance of the match.

Having said that at least there are more than 3 playable maps that the league plays. Not like the bad old days of Mohaa. Thank god I dont play that game anymore!

[buster]

just get a custom league going as well , some good maps out there,

[England4eva]

I`m sure a custom league was tried before and only a few teams signed up.

Don`t think adding custom maps to the "normal" rotation is a good idea tho :/

How very dare you Riggs, MOHAA is one of the best games of all time, if I remember correctly alot of the devs of it went working on past and present COD games aswell. Multiplayer was added as a last minute thought to MOHAA which is probably why it lacks maps, I still prefer MOHAA in its hay day over any game today.

yea true m8i , but worth another try , we have been playing them more lately
and we have had some good wars on them

Mohaa is overrated but that's for another topic ;).

[Studek]

There will also be a server status checker to ensure server settings are correct... this is currently being tested..

[England4eva]

Hi,

Looking good Virus, tell swoopz to finally pulled his finger out ;)

[Mr.Kaizer]

Nice Studek :adore

[Studek]

A big thanks to Virus for sorting this, it will help no end :adore

[GGX|Westy]

That script is pretty cool and it will come in handy!

[squinter]

Aye nice script, as for custom maps id say no , we are in a custom map league which is pretty good but to get maps uploaded to your server and have your players download the maps is a big hassle.

[Steve]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/Studek/serversettings.jpg

Would it be possible to add another line to that script to include a servers streaming status?

[Studek]

Have asked the question, but.....

We have our server streaming to PBBans but as far as I can see no data is being set so we can read it remotely.

That is the problem....

[England4eva]

- Removal of static guns (eg Overgrown, Backlot, Pipeline etc)
- Plant sound added

[jam!e]

Why plant sound e4e? If you add that you gotta remove bomb names or its giving the defense even more of an advantage! Well no bomb names are irrelevant I just don't want them any more lol

[pingU]

1. keep all the maps in rotation, this is kinda what keeps the league's identity. some maps could be seen as one-sided but tbh both sides have to defend/attack so get on with it :)

2.reg seems to be a bit off sometimes....maybe just look into it. last night was a major reminder when our sniper was on opposing sniper and bullets did not reg at all.

otherwise keep everything..keep it as stock for the HC league, thast how the game was made and how it should be played.

play "pro"mod if you want all that stuff removed :)

[England4eva]

It was made for public and not everything translates in a good manner to play clan wars. For this reason some of the perks are removed.

Otherwise bring all perks back :ahhhh

[Studek]

I used to like plant sound in CoD2 days......

But all input is needed on what people think and would like....


Hopefully will get a summary sorted and the polls running soonest..

Please note only Clan Leaders can vote so you will need to take to your forums to disscuss etc..

[Gurk_dk]

Does anyone have anything new to this thread ?

[pingU]

With the whole maps thing. keep all the maps as they are
People moan about 1 sided...BOth teams play both sides so if you got no tactics then sort it out tbh. Clandle league puts all maps on to see which teams can adapt and be better chaining to the different maps, making tactics. All is good having favourite maps but can you play with loads of different maps thats the question. Clandle is a different league so lets keep it that way with the maps.

With the perks tbh don't care..tho can we have RPGs also if we got tubes? :D

hear hear..well said Pingu

[Studek]

Hmmm.. I'd like one or the other tbh....

I've never used an RPG but love my tubes ;)

[pingU]

rpgs will be BANTERICIOUS! :P

[kev19]

The reason you dont see maps like downpour or creek played often is because they just dont suit s&d at all. They are so boring and predictable.

While your adding in rpg why not bring back uav's. Heck why dont you go the whole nine yards and bring back aristrikes and helis also.

Stick with public servers Pingu if u like all the perks and noob tubes. Would be like taking a backard step going on your recommendation.

[Gurk_dk]

We have now got a lot of good and bad things, we are now closing this thread so Admins can look this over to see if we are gonna change something og bring something new to season 6.


See you all soon to Season 6..
