6on6 happy?

6on6> all

We got now like 16.67 % less teams then before change

1. High teams only prac for lans
2. EC has been declining for years, even I got 3rd place last season
3. It didnt happen in 5v5, it did @ 6v6 - so good.
4. I didn't notice the increase of LAN activity with 5v5 either (think aef was the only one that was only possible due to the 5v5 format)
5. It's new college year people leaving like always or getting other stuff to do.

5v5 was shit, glad 6v6 is here :)

one single motto: LEAVE THE FUCKING MG! on 6on6 or i'll prefer 5on5

ET is just dead, no format change will save it, it's almost 10 years old, nothing you can do about it.

in 6v6 better teams will win, much less luck invovled, so thats a good reason to play 6v6

ET is "dead" no matter if its 5on5 or 6on6
6on6 is more entertaining to play and the only format that fits ET

The only problem for the many teams, I suppose to, is I guess to get every one on time to the prac and maybe also to find a decent 6th. Yesterday there were like 6 Teams searching for skilled 6th merc in 6on6 channel and that the problem tbh :D

But I like 6on6, it makes more fun for me to play it, one reason why I'm playing active again.

I'm glad to play 6o6 again. Even I don't wait more than 5minutes to find a match now.
No, I didn't saw ET as alive since 2010.

DECENT TROLL

people still play this game competitively?

When there was 5on5 one day cups there was barely 5 signups per cup... We are happy with 6v6

I've enjoyed playing these few 6on6 mix-cups more than all 2 saesons of 5on5 EC's.

Games activity is declining, format is irrelevant.

6on6 got great parts like:

- easier to defend !
- more entertainning
- 6 man Arty or Panzer
- alot more action
- good old days :)

5on5 is also interesting:

- serious esports format
- better lan activity
- easy to attack
- 1 person can win a match
- and so on!


Main problem in ET is the support of leagues like ESL or of big companys like speedlink or TBH or Dignitas... This games is almost 10 years old and the graphic and the gameplay is still the same! Supply and Goldrush are overplayed and there is no other cometition then CB!

So for the future we should support the Xreal project or maybe we should do a post with hundrets of gamer on a gaming forum to get the attention of some big clans or gaming company's!

I would pay for a new ET and i think some might do the same.

1) There's nothing to prac for for the real high teams. EC is simply not worth it at all anymore. Unless there is a LAN announced you won't see any of them pracing. And that would not change in 5on5 at all.
2) See 1)
3) Noone would have played the 1day cups in 5on5 as the gamemode is shit and no fun. Ppl are active with the 6on6 cups because they finally enjoy the game again.
4) Do we need more LANs except the ones made by TosspoT or Seanza? MerlinatoR offered another LAN event (yeye, poor organistation blabla) but still the ET community didn't manage to field enough teams. There are probably simply not enough teams fully sponsored to attend more than 2 LANs per year anyway! You could have 10 LANs and they would not be attended most likely. I'd rather "only" have 2 LANs (even 1) per year as the main big event and have fun playing it than 3-4 LANs and not enjoying the game.
5) Who exactly? Dignitas, Anexis? See 1)

I think the whole situation will change again once a LAN or cup worth playing is announced.

why not play both ? :PpPP

floopz floopz floopz :~>

not this shit again..

show me teams that would play if EC was 5on5. people leave as games ages, EC been declining for few years now

changing from 6o6 to 5o5 killed et :)

im totally happy with 6on6

6on6 just is more fun

i dont like 6on6 so, i can seeeee dis point!

you need to understand that "highskilled people" are getting older aswell so its expected that many of them dont have time to play anymore. For example players who played in EC XIX I guess its something like 20% of them are still playing actively. So I wouldnt blame 6on6

im totally happy with 6on6

i love 6o6 but i gotta admit that it's way harder to get 6 players online everyday for praccs...

Stephanie, are you happy?

ye let's swap it every 3 months 5o5 - 6o6 - 5o5 -6o6.....

everybody likes 6v6

yes

I prefer to play 6o6 or to watch 6o6 matches on ettv and not 5o5 matches

1.ET is DEAD
2.ET is DEAD
3.ET is DEAD
4.ET is DEAD
5.ET is DEAD

The only problem i got with 6on6 as it is = if there is MG there should be mortar aswell, ty.

6on6 is way more enjoyable format with that everything is said.

ofc there are less teams in 6on6 than in 5on5 :\

I prefer 5o5 over 6o6. Less spam, more aim.

ET just need advertising and needs to take a lean to the more "younger" side like what quake live did. Why don't ET add just simple killing spree sounds or something? People should be able to disable/enable it though. New maps should be played too! Then, CF has to stop whining all the time. etc, etc.

ET needs to continue the cycle of "old school out, new school in." i mean q3 is like 12 and its still alive, well quake live that is, although its almost the same.

So, did 6on6 kill ET? Nope. The amount of players would just be pretty much the same. Even if it is 5on5, i don't think the legendary players would be encouraged to join EC.

It's time to grow up and move on.
The current competitions/leagues aren't doing ET ,like we all used to know & love it, any justice.

hahawha hawhahahaha what a retard :D

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
ridiculous...

problem is that atm people are so hyped that they just want to play and dont play in "serious" teams. just look at queens or tag. both have a 50 men lineup and they play against each other every 2nd day with a whole different lineup.

It's not the format but rather the game which alot of people are tired off. The EC competition is obviously alot less stiff than the last few seasons, but those are the best teams WILLING and ABLE to play EC so they should play EC aslong as it exists. Nothing to hwine about imo.

ET is not dead , FPS are.

5o5 is more competition. And the way to go <3

6o6 to much spam,to easy to fullhold at some maps. And ist much harder to get 6 people for "pracc" then getting 5.

6on6 good mkay, look at all the teams showing up for their qualifier with their whole lineup, even showing up appears to be a problem for most of them.

But hey, atleast 2 guys who sucked in 5on5 can play again!!

highskilled players want 5o5 back omg let's do this!!! or maybe let's play 5v6 in this EC (5 highskilled players vs 6 current medskilled players) come on go go

e: also cba to find all your previous comments about how badly you want 6on6 back (unless you didn't write them??) or check in how many matches you've played with Queens in all these 6on6 cups and 1000000 showmatches. I guess that your Queens mates (especially raaz) don't have so much time anymore so you don't play cups every day and you have nothing to do, so you are looking for something new. ;ppp

6on6 is fine, ET is far from dead I'm pretty sure every time I sign on to IRC all I can see is people searching for mercs and searching for games. Every time I join mine and strays little mega TS all I can see is channels full of people playing ET until it gets to the time where everyone has gone to bed apart from the hardcores (razz, mind etc ;D).

Like urtier said, 1 or 2 LANs would be much better than several LANs per year, not only because of the amount of teams that can get the money together if they aren't lucky enough to find a sponsor but because the game just wouldn't be fun to play. The occasional game of ET I play here and there (be it 6on6 or 3on3) I might get mad at fumble if I'm playing with him and get proper mad and rage! But deep down I wouldn't be playing the game at all if I didn't still enjoy it :P

1day cups again as urtier said are active because people want to play the game now its 6on6 again (yea maybe it might be because a lot of people never managed to play 6on6 because the format has been switched to 5on5 when they started playing competitively) but the point still stands that this wasn't happening when it was 5on5!

Players coming back, does that matter? There are loads of teams playing at the moment and there are quite a few players playing ET at the moment. Why do you need people to come back to make it good again!? Yea players playing for dignitas and anexis might not be playing (I don't actually know) because there isn't LAN / prize money to be won. As soon as the next LAN is anounced though both teams will start praccing as will a lot of other "mix" teams that end up wanting to get some money out of it.

That was one hell of a comment, in fact one of the biggest comments I have ever posted I think so I'm going to take a rest now and head off, catch ya later!! :D

attentionwhores killed ET with their shit ideas

I'm happy with the 6o6 format since I don't play on an active base.

we need fucking new ET.. better graphics but still same gameplay, movement etc..


not like brink, ET:QW..

dont care about 5on5 or 6on6 :|

It's more fun, simple as that

6v6 is soooo much more fun and adds more to game (teamplay, tax etc.) besides ET was made for 6v6 so right format... lot of ppl looking for clan, lots of team signed up for ec so game is not dead just not enough 24/7 nerds left to run the old style with stable teams and lu's praccin everyday.. thats just the way it is atm... and why EC has skilldropped ... 5v5 wont change that just make it more boring to play again

u just mad cuz u cant play ET

About CB:EC ... this championship is not worth it's name. I think ET don't deserve big prize amount, but if they promise they should give it! That is a very simple thing, I can't imagine decission maker people at CB in real life if they do such things on the Internet... :)

About Game Format... 5on5 was better for the game, because we were able to form more teams, it is easier to get five players and start playing. 6on6 is tradition and that was the thing what made ET unique and special, plus the game itself ofcourse... This is very difficult decission, it would be great if we could push 5on5 and 6on6 into one format, without being retarded...

There are some clans and players still who worth to be on the top, if they want competition they should switch game together or help to change the thinking of newbie's who are crying/flaming/whining every war because they haven't mAus.cfg/can't win after one week pracc/can't play EC with 1 year experience though this one is a joke this year :)))))))
