    Over the next few months I'm going to run some challenges on my web site www.angelfire.com/ut/jediquake3/index.html . I'm open to any suggestions.

    So the first challenge I put to the irish public (An idea given to me by Bunny) is to record a 10mins demo of yourself V 4 Hardcore bots on Q3DM17. Then send the demos into myself for viewing. The person with the highest score in 10mins, there demo will be posted onto www.challenge-ie.com for the rest of the world to admire it.

    Post demos into jedisvault@yahoo.com .
    closing date is 1 march for this one. All demos will be posted on my site. So stay tuned.

    considering how challenge-ie seem to make things up as they go along, i'm not surprised no one reads it smile.gif

    errr, el-pres, cons to uk are poor? i'm getting better pings and smoother games on the ukccl & demon servers than on ign.

    I am saddened that no one reads all my work I really am.

    Ok good point 4 stripe bots.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 649 ✭✭✭Spoonman


    This reminds me of [jedi]obiwan's challange all those years back. Anyone else get that dejavu feeling there, their names are so similar and all smile.gif


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,313 ✭✭✭Paladin


    Ya. Railing takes skill. Give us a chance. smile.gif

    I think jedi just wants to find out how everyone elses railing compares to his own, but somehow I doubt some of the better railers will be able to enter...Slaan has no machine to play on, with bots at the moment I get 10 to 15 fps on that level (not that I'm saying I'm a good railer or anything...)

    Ya should see Quozl with the rail on LAN, its not pretty.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 625 ✭✭✭Vincent


    How about u put about a challenge for the irish public to record a 2 hour demo verus some menceing frogbots on dm3 smile.gif

    If you look at or play Tourney 3 you'll see that there is a lot of railing in it.
    Its just that its not the ONLY way to win, where as camping on the rail ledge zooming in is going to be the most effective scoring approach on Dm17.
    It'll turn into a competition of who can rail from a distance (read: Camp) the best.

    Try Tourney 3 for yerselves, much more action, more weapons and loads of railing all the same.

    DeVore.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,657 ✭✭✭OSiriS


    DeV have you actually tried playin hardcore bots on dm17, they aint stoopid (figuratively speaking) u try camp out on that ledge and those bots will start to ignore each other and send enough rockets out ure way to make u think twice about camping there again. Anyway zoom railing from out there doesn't take any skill, it's hitting moving targets while you are zipping across those jump pads, or railing at really close quarters thats really impressive, and not many ppl can do that.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 496 ✭✭Bunny



    Okay, not dm17, i didnt know u could stand on that thing and rail, we'll just change it to some other level. I CAN BEAT ANARKI ON Q3TOURNAMENT4 SO I DONT NEED TO ENTER.

    ARGH!

    Why that STOOPID map.
    Its rail rail rail,

    Something like Tourney 3 would be better where you can use your weapon of choice.

    DeV.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 658 ✭✭✭Jedi


    Fair enough forget about it. Your all a bunch of useless ****s. It was a simple challange, if your not up for it don't comment on it. Sit quietly in the backround and keep your mouth shut. I wasn't even going to enter. forget it. ffs.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 208 ✭✭Predator


    Now look what ye pack of ingrates have done tongue.gif
    uve gone and hurt mr.jedi's feelings
    jedi u shouldnt **** yerself about 3 ppl who want to change the map , man, u should go ahead and as someone else sed , let ppl play what they want.
    I for one was actually tryin yer challenge
    and imho the best tactic is to use shotgun cos them bots seem to jump just be4 u rail em frown.gif
    Do what u want. If u want a challenege on q3tourney3 dev , why not start a challenege yerself? or any other level anyone out there fancies ?

    jedi I'll have a demo ready for you at trinlan (not going to be the best but what the hay)(I can only get about 50 kills with out camping) sad.gif


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,508 ✭✭✭Gerry


    Jedi u should still go ahead with the competition its a good idea. Its one of my favourite levels even if my rail is not the best. Don't mind people who want a different level.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,014 ✭✭✭sutty


    here... here, I secound that

    Anyone else who want's to write for Challenge-IE only needs to mail me or Dev. We only set it up cos all the other countries were setting theirs up and if we didn't set it up then, we'd never get one. If ppl don't want an irish challenge site we can take it down.

    Plus jedi is a completely different animal to like obi-wan. He's a dead sound bloke who's mad hooked on the actual game - obi was just an irc-op who hardly ever played. I think it's a good idea - bot comps are a good way to compare players on equal pings. I agree the level aint the best but a different one would have been chosen the next time.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 208 ✭✭Predator


    like mellow out ppl
    if u want a diff lev dev why not set yer own one up. NO need to freak out
    chill relax do as u please.
    OK?

    Oh ya ewj i wouldnt mind writing for chie

    Daddy or Chips?

    pred , pass the joint smile.gif


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan



    on the muppet show tonight.....

    hey, why not let ppl make their own choice of levels...home and away like?

    or would that be too much change which it would seem so many people are allergic to around here. makes me very upset that does.


    Your Imps Demand cable....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,484 ✭✭✭El_Presidente


    I have had quite eneogh of this CH-IE bashing and I vow to make it the greatest news site the internet has EVER seen.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 658 ✭✭✭Jedi


    There will be a diferent challange every 2 week Dev so there will be plenty to suit everyone. I have a CTF capture challange planed for next time on one of Zoids maps. Right up you ally Dev. Give this one a go lads and it will give you a good idea how you compare to the rest of the irish quakers. I don't care how you play the level Camp go mental what ever your style is. wink.gif

    All the suggestions have been noted Lads some good some ok but all will be considered. Nice to have you back EWJ. Later. smile.gif

    Kewl Jedi, I'm kinda keen on the whole idea as the net frankly sucks for Q3 even given my isdn sad.gif
    I just cant rail for **** and I was hoping for a map that wasnt so rail oriented is all...
    Didnt want ta **** ya off man :pp

    DeV.


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    Now hang on a minute. Excuse the **** out of me but in the opening line I read
    "I'm open to any suggestions."

    I made a suggestion because as it happens I'm very interested in this competition and was thinking along the same lines as bunny (the DM4 challenge we had ages ago).

    All I am saying is that it would be NICE to have a level that isnt all camp/rail and has a decent selection of weapons (not just rl/rail). If you dont want to change, fine dont change, I'll probably still enter for the laugh but all I'm saying is I think it would be a more interesting competition on a different level and I suggested one. you asked for feedback!

    Christ everyone drop a frickin chill pill.

    DeV.
