WAAAT, NEED TEAM PM!
It's an American tournament, but with Wolf's netcode, hf.
Parent
is open to participants worldwide
Parent
played on US based Intel servers at 9:30 PM US EDT
Parent
SO WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?!
Parent
Ask yourself this.
Parent
ah yea, im just back from france then :(
Parent
9:30 pm edt is like 03:30 CET
Parent
see we should have started a team already!! i told ya!
Parent
Damn, awesome. Hope the game is worthy of such tourneys.
Apparently it doesn't matter how good or bad a game is in TGL (lol) but they still get this ridiculous prize pot from their sponsors.

I played in an FFOW tourney which had similar prize pot and that game is terribad!

We came 4th which isn't bad for a team who didn't prac :D
Parent
cop-out!
just admine that you sucked !
Parent
haha, 1750$ we won! :D
Parent
It was $1250 b'rah!
Parent
Just funny how these big companies waste money on fail games, terrible way of advertising.

Anyway, hf with money dignitas and/or whoever is best US team.
+1 same hype as ET:QW
Parent
The winners will be some team who plays this game on console with console controller. They will roll over Dignitas. I want to see how half of teams game crashes on some map :D ahahahaha! Its like seeing Windows 98 giving bluescreen on presentation.
um... no? you can not compete on this tournament with console afaik >_<
Parent
thats awesome news
thats awesome other news it seems :O
Parent
now all we need is a massa comeback and the awesomeness is just incredible !
Parent
sponser me new processor! :(
Parent
Why ask him, not like Helix are gonna win any <333 :D
Parent
well top 3 get one? hx digni and that 141 team, rest dunno their performance :S
Parent
Who said Top3 get some? They are classed as "Random prizes" so nothing says top3...Also there are 12 CPU's and 15 players in the top3, go do ur math.

Who says Helix are #3? They will have to play on 200 ping servers in the middle of the night and that while 141 and STAR are both on the same skill level as them.

My post was just a joke to diss the Helix guys since I know them, wasnt rlly looking for a serious reply :D


xox
Parent
well my 1st comment on noorgrin was aswell as joke.. since he forgot last time to gimme bradwurst and beer @ enlarged!

each team 5 players > top 2 gets processors, since it's higher value... atleast would be logic, so 2 left, and 3 motherboard left :( kinda wierd indeed, but atleast one of the players in 3rd placed team should get one proccesori thought!

tho top 5 get moneyz, so he could buy one for me too! :D the word "along" made me think about it like thiz......

xoxo it was btw!:(
Parent
massa, zadd, zak, ica, sondac, hannes

insta win!
Parent
what´s Austria tom doin these days?
Parent
doesn't play wolf yet. maybe he will play it in the future but this isn't sure
Parent
true, i forgot about el Ösi! Dno what hes up to atm.
Parent
ur answer is above.
Parent
i can now say,

team dignitas first place
If wolfenstein gets $10,000 prizemoney in cash, ET deserves triple the amount. With 200 online Wolfenstein Players, this is too much.

Oh nice, so EU have to play @ ~5:30 in the morning? I don't even think USA can field 5 teams.
5:30 is perfect :D
play -> go to work after :D

what "shocks" me more is the fact the servers are hosted in the US :(
Parent
well it is an american league. hopefully they cater for international teams by having servers on east and west coasts.
Parent
Convince sponsors to pay money and you'll get prized tourneys for ET as well, that's it.
Parent
Only someone as big as TosspoT could do it :p
Parent
eSports Heaven is the right way, imo.
Parent
yeeaa win 6 mouses jhippiiii
Parent
At least they got the support of a known company. In case this cup will be a success there's more to come (as starzi said).
Parent
Since when EDT/CET has a 16 hour time difference?
Parent
It's 3:30 AM CET. Not 5:30 nigger.!

9:30 GMT -5 = EASTERN AMERICA
CET = GMT +1 = -5 +6 = +1

yay :D
Parent
You didnt understand right XDDDDDD
Parent
im actually not sure about when summertime ends in europe... until then its gmt +2
Parent
Ay :d got confused
Parent
6 already :)
Parent
Incredible prizes oO
mainnews tbh :D
fuckmeimfamous

give the money to Seanza for next sunday cup :D
sick :O)
played without wolfpro ? .. :D
no pros in wolf :(
Parent
STILL NEED TEAM N STUFF







jere stinkt
haha n00b without team, cry baby cry!

those $s are coming fif's way, jwz :)
Parent
a belgian saying "jwz"...so wrong
Parent
I play too much with dutchys =( blame them + I answered Ati_ who is a fucking dutchtard so that explains much too :)
Parent
lol moneys
do that for W;ET
I bet its to be played on vanilla wolf :D
lol que ?
need team.
Predicting an affliction win.
Final will be: d. vs -a-
Parent
Not half as epic as iN- vs -a- @ QuakeCon. ;)
Parent
maybe because it wasnt a final
Parent
20fps and ping of 200 is awesome i heard
can u do anything else but whining at any point ?

all ur comments contain whine and nothing but whine tbh
Parent
meet him @LAN, rumors say he´s a completely different person there :)
Parent
im trying to improve the world by doing that.
Parent
whine doesnt change the world
nor do words
acts do

if uve got so much in ur mind that would improve the whole world, start realising them by contacting coder or w/e

or just give constructive feedback
thats the least you could do
... besides whining ofc
Parent
I read your post and I am amazed.
Parent
dont get the point of ur sarcams and cba thinking it out so just stop replying to me
Parent
ofc you cant understand it, you are even too stupid for the most easy things on this site^^
Parent
ya and its surely you who can judge me
sorry but i cba to occupy myself with a stupid statement like he made and its certainly not worth talking about if he cant even make his post up

+ my first post to u wasnt a flame so gtfo my face if u want to start flaming u little piece of shit
Parent
people who arent stupid get the point like this too. the points of my arguments dont get lost only because im doing it in a sarcastic way in most of the times.

and i dont wanna change the world cuz almost all the people arent worth the effort ;)
Parent
why do you even need to justify your comments snoop, lol.
Parent
cuz i have to have the last word! xP
Parent
i heard that its no problem for a guy called "snoop" :O)
Parent
ive got a better system than most of the players who are "good" at this game so i somehow cant believe they get much more than i get
Parent
i get around 20 with a low gfx cfg so i understand what u mean :O)
Parent
i got 200-300fps with 2x 2.13ghz, 8800gt and 1gig ram
Parent
mayb we don't :-]
Parent
you would hope this means that a patch is coming between now and the start of the tournament.
hmmm... thats the main reason why ppl should play wolfenstain... sponsors dont ce about free games like ET, however brand new one, that can be sold... yes its the key !
ur lucky my 40 GB disk has no room for new Wolf , or the prize is my
i got 38gb and 2 games installed np
Parent
played on US servers? FAIL
maybe because its an american league.
Parent
how about not posting that as a main new in a european gaming community?
Parent
I posted the news. I can only add it as "other news" the admins decided to add it as main news.

Also, it's a global gaming community, afaik. Just happens to be that the majority of members are from EU.
Parent
all matches will be played on US based Intel servers at 9:30 PM US EDT

the game is actualy rly laggy even on european server, so if needed to play all the matches on US based server ^^ lets have fun Unhit
jesus, playing the cup ! fucking awesome !!!!!
In et cups must be prizes lower than cheapest private hack ;D So 1st place take 6x 12e (paleshit) - 1 imo.
GG Dignitas

searchin for team, avi for this cup
Eat shit with this times .
i wanna bet ur going to play this shit, no matter what times ...
Parent
i never played TGL cup before even when there were better prizes so i dont see playing this one either :XD
Parent
TRUST ME BUDDY!!!! U WILL PLAY THIS ONE no matter WHAT !!!!!!!!!

mark my words, and fear them XD
Parent
no dignitas?
image: original_image
Parent
No Mamut? or no jakazc =)? Get Sui to play for you!
Parent
jaki don't try to act that d. isn't going to participate in this cup, because nobody's going to belive you anyway :D
Parent
Considering they ripped of people by selling a game in its beta, and on top of that, a crappy game, it is only fair they give some of the money back to those who bought it.

Also, quite impressive that they have the confidence in the AC to do it in an online competition...
6 Teams have signed up (122 of 128 spots remaining). ^_^
it's like 3.30 am cet?
CET -> East-Coast USA is -4

So I guess it's around 5:30 CET PM??
Parent
This doesn't sound right... it's 3:30, I think.
Parent
right and AM :o(
Parent
ping 200 +30fps? hf :)
cave comeback pls !! =)
Parent
east coast= -6 .
When it's 9pm in paris/london, its 3pm in new york
And so much money for an online tournament is funny, especially for a game which has a playerbase of 200 maybe 300 players .
so the game is a human being, yes?
Parent
Uh, just in case you didn't know: London and Paris aren't in the same time zone.
Parent
wolfs dead allthough i like the prizes ^^
hf with the $$$ !
Parent
2500$ for hx, doesnt sound bad, does it? ;P
Parent
u think they will be second?
Parent
They already came second after Dignitas.
Parent
yeah in the first beta cup. i think 141 or STAR r better immo. nothing against helix just my opinion
Parent
Dont follow the scene that close, you might be right :)
Parent
one4one is, yep!
Eventho dignitas is the only team we haven't won a map/played a draw against yet =)
Parent
i heard rumors the helix keyplayer was missing yesterday ! :D
Parent
yeah rite. but dunno what's his name ;)
Parent
it's who?grin !
Parent
want to buy hax? pm meh
fuck me, that's great news.
crazy shit
so wheres the european version of it? ESL get some Prices and gogogo.
US based Intel servers at 9:30 PM US EDT

and still dignitas will rape the whichever low skilled team is best in us
I want to make Jaka fanboy shirts. Are you with me?
Parent
got one signed by him already! i wear it all the time and will never wash it
Parent
":D" fuck yea.
I don't understand all the whine. Things like this will only encourage further development of the game.
So why forced to play on only US server ? 200 ping for us roflcopter cup.
This will not rly help to develop the decreasing ping :)
Parent
It's an American based league.(btw it's also free to enter) If it was a European based league it would be the other way around. Doesn't man it isn't a good thing.

I have no doubt there'll be similar tourneys from the EU leagues but as of this moment none of them are fully supporting it. Plans are in the works to support it from ESL we're just working out some of the finer details.

http://www.esl.eu/eu/wolfenstein/forum/1960/15890/?lastvisit=1251900826
Parent
T CON OU QUOI.

When we play your fucking leagues, its on EU server.
SO I UNDERSTAND THAT, WHEN ITS AN AMERICAN LEAGUE, YOU MUST PLAY ON FUCKING AMERICAN SERVER

t un epais. incroyable
Parent
As Rafale said :
+ us times
+200 ping = if you look at the sign-ups, its only us teams at the moment

cool story bro
Parent
reste poli ou bien va laver ta bouche tu commence a dire du caca en boite
Parent
******** WARNING POINTS INCOMMING ********
Parent
reste poli ou bien va laver ta bouche tu commence a dire du caca en boite
Parent
http://www.gametracker.com/games/wolf/

37 players online at the moment, says enough.
+ us times
+200 ping = if you look at the sign-ups, its only us teams at the moment
Parent
this just makes me so pissed off, spending money on a fail game with 200 players max, while ET is getting nothing. (except the great support by the ESL)
waste of money
cmon 50 euros for a game like wolfenstein aint much when you can enter this awesome tournament!

in theory with 200 new players they cover the prizemoney.
Parent
u can get it for less
Parent
go in store,open wolf cd,get the cd key,scratch it after=free :D
Parent
the amount is irrelevant.
Parent
any known teams signed up yet?

ohh and which teams are actually considered decent in wolfenstein atm ?
Affliction beat iNfensus back in the day, at Quake-con '02 (if I'm remembering correctly), among lots of other things. Especially given that it's on US servers, I'd place them in the final easily.
Parent
were they active in any game lately ?
Parent
sherlock ! before that
Parent
The players have been active in various games as far as I know, but not on the same team. Most of their current lineup used to play together in RTCW & ET (from what my untrustworthy memory tells me).
Parent
I don't think that ever happened :D
Parent
Mmmm, as I recall they did, iN won '03, but they lost at '02. Then again, my memory isn't perfect. :P

e: nvm, I'm wrong :>
Parent
against the doctors
Parent
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
JHAHAHAHAHHA ROTFL
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDddddddddddddddddddddddDdddddddd
10k$ for online thats crazy
i bet reload and other d guys wet their pants!
i did it already
Parent
Nice! I have already contacted chaplja!
Wolfenstein Multihack for 1 month: 20$

20$ * 5 players = 100$

Winning = $3500
3500$ - 100$ = 3400$

3400/5 = 680$ per player

It's worth it!
Parent
math genius
Parent
sometimes your lack of common sense astounds me
Parent
My post was full of seriousness.
Parent
I realize that it just seems sometimes you encourage hacking. Seems counter-productive.
Parent
lol obviously i was kidding, if you have 5 players cheating the chance to get busted is so high.
Parent
Thanks for the pro-cheat tips, Mr.!
Parent
nah, hes just making himself jobs :D To bust them. So its a good idea TBH :DDDDDDDDDD
Parent
Didint this game had enough fails already?
American League = American Servers.

Aah, my brain hurts! CANNOT UNDERSTATE, DOES NOT COMPUTE. FYSTEM SAILURE.

/sarcasm :(

Anywho's, lookin' goooood! :D

Parent

Parent
Damn right! :D promod makes the game a whole lot better!
Parent

Parent
lmao, its nothing like camp or die... AT ALLL
Parent
omg this is great news for wolf
im so not staying up to play damn tournament i cant win anyway :<<<<
gl affliction dignitas one4one & all other teams xD
Yes, that has been taken into consideration, its only a matter of time, well in 2010, were both euro and u.s./a.u. teams will be able to compete on a server which would be at an equal distance from each other. That should allow identical pings in the event a EU team faces off with a U.S. or AU team.
Wolfenstein is the most unstable game (ping-wise), I know. Can't even play it with my laggy connection on German servers.
Parent
terrible game, but nice prices.
gl to all teams(though we know who are going to be on top))
hyperion going to play this.
where is our mgc? WHERE IS MY NEW PC? WHAT THE FUCK MIND, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR LONG TIME...

and a mouse would be nice too
need team
Minus the euro teams please.
