GotFrag and Crow have put together another great read on the current state of the Call of Duty community, this time analysing the up and coming talent within the competitive ranks.

Featuring Interviews with Raz of Dignitas and L-King of Speedlink, Crow analyses where the game has come from, and where its going with this new breed of up and coming superstars.

Quote

Just take a look at any form of player rankings and a few are bound to pop up, Raz, Knaller, L-KinG, Breazy, the list goes on. These players are only aged 15 or 16 but have skill, dedication and a burning desire to succeed. Many were denied the chance to do so in vCoD but in the new arena that is CoD2 they are thriving.

A new cup is starting soon.

6v6? 5v5? No! This will be 1v1.
Your still discussing bout 5o5 or 6o6 ? Forget all this. ET is not only Teamplay. ET is Action. ET is speed. ET is AIM! So show all this in the unique 1v1 cup that is teambased.
I hear you think "Teambased?" Yea teambased.

It won't be a normal 1v1 cup. Its something new in the ET scene.

Match layout
Both teams need to have three different players that are on the allowed playerlist.

For example :
Team A is : player A1, A2 and A3
Team B is : player B1, B2 and B3

One match got three maps. So each player will play one map. So its not allowed to let a player play two maps.
In a match one objective map will be played and two "frag" maps where the deaths are deciding who's winning.
So for example this match will look like this :
A1 vs B2 map : ctf_multidemo (objective map)
A2 vs B3 map : multi_huntplace (frag map)
A3 vs B1 map : te_valhalla (frag map)

The team that wins at least two of the three maps is winning the match.

The supervisors for this cup are bullvox and n3co

I hope we will see a lot of teams playing this cup and that we can make it a nice cup together.

Sign ups are currently open from 16 teams, with room for up to 32 if required. It’ll run this Sunday, 15th October from 15:00 CET. If your team can’t abide to this schedule please don’t sign up.

To sign up either /q Nellie (nll|bnc) on quakenet or send an email to [email protected] - including your clan name, clan tag and roster.

The map list will be:

Hi Xfire community,

Today we played the first #1day-cup (organised by NeXi and Rain).
One week ago nEkz` decided to organise a cup, named #1day-cup.

Yesterday the sign-ups opened at 13.00 CET and at 15.00 sign-ups were closed with 40 teams.

With some nice teams as eg: one4one, Finest, sFx.Lan, Highbot, Dickheads, sundayMIX ... We started 13.25 CET with 32 teams. The first two rounds were quite easy for the big teams.

The semifinals were between this teams:

sFx.LAN - sundayMIX
Finest - one4one

This week we witnessed the first matchweek of the #17 ET-Cup take place. There were some great battles taken place and you can see all the results if you pres 'Read More' further down the page.

There were no shocks to the results with most of the top teams taking wins. Lets hope there are some shocks in store this week.

Coming up this week we have a couple of games on ETTV (not decided) so keep a check out on GamesTV.org for all your information.

But to kick start this 2nd matchweek, we having 2 games on ETTV. They are:

[img|left]http://www.gamestv.org/buttons/game1352.png[/img]
Match: Highbot vs 2eaz
Date/Time: Today @ 21.00 CET
Maps: crevasse_b1 and sw_grush_te
ETTv-IPs: ETTV



Match: aurea vs uAznia
Date/Time: Today @ 21.00 CET
Maps: crevasse_b1 and Supply Depot 2
ETTv-IPs: ETTV



Just a quick note to teams. You have a freemap choice in the group games. We only had to set some maps in the cupscript because otherwise it wouldn`t work. Later, in the playoffs, we will force the maps with atleast 1x Crevasse_b1. Therefore it would be wise if you train/choose the map in the goupstage!

Hello Crossfire Community,

Battle For Berlin is almost here! Less than a month and the tournament will begin!

Alot of things are on their last leg before being finalized. A few of those things would be the scheduele and finalized map list. We are working hard to make the scheduel fair and try our best to work around the leagues occuring then.

At this time the map pool is as follows:

- Ice
- Base
- Keep
- Sub
- Village

Whilst not in the spirit of the games covered here on Crossfire, its still worth peoples attention! Today EA have released the latest installment in the Battlefield series and with us loving all things free here on Crossfire, that it is!

Featuring the usual 64 player combat and massive team interaction, the Battlefield series has proven to be a massive hit over the years. Mimic'ing some of the RTCW & Fortress teamplay dynamics it has always featured fantastic visual's and this is no exception. However, lack of stability has always been levelled at the series and with errors and failed patches, the hardcore BattleField'r has often been left with a sour taste in their mouth. Will this be the same? Try it for yourself:
