Good luck with the "revival", guys.
It may be a lotto map, but definitely fun.
ET is not a priority for them in the slightest and never will be. There is a reason that the CoD2 community has begun moving from ESL to CG.
What makes you think that ESL will give ET more attention than CyberGamer does? They have already dropped support for ET once before, blaming it on lack of activity. How do you know they won't do it again a few months from now?
maybe i believe that the esl wire ac is more usefull than cgac for et? we are using cgac since early february and still nothing happens with the ET side of that "app"..
what attention is cg giving et except hosting it?
how can i be sure that cg won't do the same?
Because you have an unhealthy obsession with "cheaters" and "busting" them.
How so? You don't even know whether it will be effective in ET or not. What we do know is that Wire can only be used in ESL matches, so say goodbye to any CG cups/ladders & community-run competitions and hello to the cups and ladders of ESL run by admins with 0 knowledge about ET.
You are confusing CG the organization with CG the ET crew. Everything we do at CG is done to help keep this game and community alive. Our rules, maplists, and system is built in a way that best serves ET players. This is the main difference between ESL and CG. ESL will never stray from the "global" rules and policies they have in place, even if it will help provide better support for ET. We do not matter enough to them to change the way their system works, and you will soon find that out if this "revival" happens.
Why would CG drop support for ET? The only other games that CyberGamer EU actively supports at the moment are CoD4 and CoD2. ESL, on the other hand, would not be affected one bit as an organization if they chose to let ET go once again. That's the point I'm trying to make here - ESL will only make minimal effort for ET because they have only minimal benefits to gain from it.
also how is cgac effective right now? there is nothing to support your statement. how can cgac used in ESL matches?
ye and why are you so much hating on ESL when 2 Organziation are better than only 1? are right... you are not an admin on ESL and you cant do a shit on ESL..
Dunno why they should drop et.. but they could...
If you accuse everyone of cheating, you're bound to get a few right eventually. I have never liked NaZtY and am actually in a fine mood today.
Which statement? And why would you want to use CGAC in ESL matches?
You really think that two organizations are better than one? In what way? How is having two different leagues with two different anticheats beneficial to a community of less than 500 active players?
ET will suffer if ESL takes over. It may not happen right away, but in a few weeks/months you will see what I mean. I'm saying this as a player, not as an admin.
Right...
im talking about that statemant. but is nothing new that you cant remember oyur own words after 3 seconds....
yep why should we have linux and microsoft, adidas and puma, women or man, day and night...
like i said.. you are scared to lost your adminpower...
You have lost all credibility by accusing players who are not even remotely suspicious -
As far as I know, that statement is true, and ESL Wire can only be used in ESL matches.
You cannot compare these things to ET. Billions of people wear shoes and use computers, while only a few hundred play this game competitively.
Not at all. I'm not a dictator and would gladly give up my position if someone came along who could do a better job, but I don't think ESL is capable of that. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
hm can we use cgac in irc matches or outside from cg? no? then is your point useless...
we can compare et with any other hsit, cause you tell us that we cant do it?
what is a better job? so you tell us right now you are doing a shit job?
Neither of them are my buddies, but there is no evidence that they are cheating, yet you repeatedly insist that they are.
You can use CGAC in one-day cups and other competitions run by members of the community. My understanding is that you cannot do that with ESL Wire.
You can't do it because it is illogical, not because I am telling you not to. Get a grip.
...What?
where did i wrote repeadly that they hax? i can write my opinion?
so far i can remeber esl offered something that we can use ESL for IRC matches.. yes we have to make 2 clicks more but atleast we could use an anticheat for irc...
why is that illogical? cause is doenst fit your mind? cause et got only 100 active players? give me some reason ot just some useless shit..
and again... you cant remeber your own shit... what are you making wrong that you think that oyu making a shit job?
could it be that you still havent cancelled my atleast 10 matchlinks? :)
Yes, and we have determined that he is clean and his actions are easily explainable.
Say whatever you want, just don't expect to be taken seriously.
Gather/Versus is not the same thing as playing IRC matches. The community will not like it because it is different and involves more effort than we are used to.
There is not enough activity in ET to support cups and ladders on two different websites. It will either split the community or cause the ET section of one of the leagues to collapse. Comparing this to Adidas vs Puma or Microsoft vs Linux is illogical because neither one has such a large impact on their opponent to drive them out of business since there are already so many people (read: billions) supporting them and using their products. I am baffled that you do not understand this.
I don't think that I am "making a shit job" at all and in fact think I'm doing rather well. You really need to work on your reading comprehension because I am getting tired of having to explain myself over and over. What I meant is that I am not obsessed with power like you seem to think I am and will gladly quit my job as an admin if someone better comes along and takes my place. That has just not happened yet and will not likely happen soon.
i wanna hear the explainations, please
the for the rest... is just random i hate ESL blablablabla
btw: i cant take you seriously after letting players do whatever they want after moving to cg :)
See you in a few weeks/months when you discover for yourself that ESL isn't as perfect as you think it is.
and maybe im just the guy who did the avi... like with xictus.. i didnt even played that match and i dont even like the german team who got beaten by cheats... think about it.. i even watched symbol many times cause i accused him... so pls...
im just the guy who get paid for it :P
oh and the ohurcg is the perfect fit?
maybe esl can do better
you are just a peace of shit if you really think i give a fuck about it... ESL could be Indian or Vietnamese and stll i couldnt give a single fuck...
what the fuck are u talking??? cuz iam german...sry that i want a chance to make my favorite game abit cleaner then this shit with cgac.. but well after this comment i cant take u serious anymore man, seems like u have problems with germans nice to know that u are so mature, u should be replaced with someone else who is not racism, i have never done something about u and ur work, and u insult me for nothing. wp ohurcool 10/10
I don't think you are right to say that if someone is German he will support ESL blindly no matter what they do. It's like saying all Americans are fat (hehehehehe).
I support the Netherlands football team because they're Dutch. Should I have reasons to explain why I don't support the Spanish football team?
We'll just leave it in the middle. We differ from opinions, that's not a big deal :P
That guy is not familiar with ET and seems he didnt even ask sn4ke about it (while there were also rummors that he was not admin anymore), because sn4ke knows that tzac is offline for long time. Few mistakes which will be surely corrected when timbo talks with him and you are here like #YOLO ESL anti fan.
All the drama CG vs ESL has begun.
I think there is no need to state that ESL has abandoned ET year ago, ESL admins had a plan for versus and wire and so on and community has rejected that. After that it was decided to close section, which had no future goal except runing empty cups. But do we need to talk about this on every ESL thread?
Besides community wanted ESL back, forum posts and all feedback is showing that. If its in interest of people I dont know why you mind so much.
And what is about future of ET? ESL is negative thing or what?
Sn4Ke's newspost about ESL ET closing is full of excuses and finger-pointing.
This is what the GamesTV schedule looked like on the day that ESL dropped support for ET:
Does that look like a dead game to you? Besides, if the reason ESL closed their ET section was that ET had "died", then why are they making a comeback now? Is the game "alive" now?
People want ESL back because they don't see the big picture. They are frustrated with the lack of bans from CGAC and think that ESL and Wire will solve all of our problems. People seem to have forgotten how we were treated by ESL in the past and what it's like to play in cups and ladders with overly strict rules run by clueless admins. I'm simply trying to make sure everyone understands what we're getting ourselves into before it's too late.
At the time when we started with wire development and at the time when wire should replace TZAC (For ESL) was the time when Chaplja abandoned TZAC and even started vote to donate money for it. At that time when donations were runing and so on TZAC did not develop and also we knew that there will not be new version which we all exactly saw on december 1st. Also that was the date when we wanted to get wire done by that.
Calling best anticheat for ET that time.. yeah outdated and bypassed long time ago. It was good yes on begining, but at that time it wasn't anymore since no further development was made. People had only fear to turn on some private hacks and thats it.
There were more reasons, main reason was that noone did not play ESL cups and all the effort that was putted into that cups and time by all admins... there was no point anymore since that was happening for few years already. ESL versus would work only with wire, this is how we wanted to get new players and not only see how old ones are leaving.
Besides how can u make some accusations, when you do not know what was going on at ESL, because clearly you don't. You are only writing posts and some funny comments without backup facts. GTV screenshot is the fact for you when that was decided few weeks ago and not that day.
Again you are missing the point that players wanted ESL back at the time when CG started to support ET. Wondering what is the big picture for you, seems like you are the only open minded player in this community with that picture.
How were you treated in the past?
Do you know how were ESL admins treated in the past on websites like crossfire, tz-ac, gamestv, entirely.pro? We are talking from admins of that site to ESL. We missed the lack of open invitations which clanbase league admins had. So its not only the community did not play esl ladders, cups anymore, its also the sad point that ESL admins were treated by other admins so badly. But hey why should I explain that to anyone more. Still have so much dignity to not talk about that infront of everyone.
What strict rules? So you don't respect rules that are there to be obeyed? Did you start any post at ESL about those strict rules or even open a ticket for that matter?
It surely looks like u dont like ESL to come back, but there are also others which thinks oposite and would like to see ESL in future.
but ok also its not stated in news how its ment that revival after all :) I think its ment as Revival of ESL which had ET already in its games... and not in general of ET is Dead revival :P
you the man tim <3
Welcome to ET.
It's an insult to the community to call this a "revival cup" when it looks like something that was thrown together in 15 minutes, despite the initial announcement taking place back in January. ESL clearly doesn't care about ET at all and instead sees you as nothing more than another hit on their website or subscription to their Premium package.
i take back my previous statement!
i love you too man <3
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Pm if you need anything ill try to gather some people that can support this
e: know some1 a way how i can figure out my last pw? since esl is forcing to change the pw everytime i got no clue which one I used at last.. and since i always logged in via facebook, I rly forgot it :( and I cant let esl send my pw to my email acc cuz the email i used to register to esl got hacked few weeks ago :D
TZAC part got removed and the new maplist is:
