Black Ops 5v5 Ladder

cherryghost

Hello folks, in light of recent popularity with Black Ops, I'm here to propose that some of us boards.ie members enter in el grande Black Ops 5v5 PC ladder, in Search and Destroy.

What do you need?

In conjunction with the boards.ie Bad Company 2 team, we're merging the boards.ie clan page with all other online activities.

Our team page can be seen here.

The steps are simple. Post on this thread if you're interested, post your preferred class and setup, as well as your preferred times to play.

Click on the link on the Boards.ie clan page, and hit the join button. If you can't see the join button, it's the 2 little guys and arrow, click. The join password is 'boardsie'

There are two main requirements to play in the leagues. One is to have your Black Ops Steam ID added to your ESL profile. To get your BO Steam ID, join a server and in console type /steamid. Grab the ID printed on the screen (if you missed it, hit shift+` to maximise the console screen). Now, go to your profile on ESL and go to Gameaccounts. Add the Black Ops ID where appropriate.

ESL Wire anti cheat software must be installed when playing the matches, which is available on the ESL website.

Teamspeak 3 would also be preferrable, the boards.ie IP for that is in the sticky above.

That's it!

I'll be providing the server in due course, so I'll post the IP and details soon. I'll also be assigning a co-op leader for the Black Ops team, and if there's enough interest, we'll register a B team.


We got a team, when do we play?

Myself or the co-op leader will organize the matches, and match date and time will be posted here between 3-5 days before the match. There will never be a last minute match organized, as I feel that's pressure on other places to join in and play.

All maps bar Nuketown is available to select as the preferred map. Matches take between 20-40 mins, depends on the style of play of our team/our opponents.

Yakult

Definitely something that interests me, I don't mind which class I am once its not sniper.

(Would be interested in BFBC2 as well)

Added my BFBC2 GUID and BO steam id, will add other stuff later (CSS, cod4, 2 (?) etc.)

Angron

I'm up for it.


Also; yay, no Nuketown!

jackoire

Count me in cherry :pac:
I could play any class even sniper if i have too on the street map (forget the name) and array.

Whats the ruleset for ESL? i'm guessing HC, no perks, no clays etc...
I'm sure i could get a few to train against if u need.

cherryghost

Sweet. That's 4 signups already! Keep 'em coming. Don't forget to /steamid in a server and add the data to your Gameaccounts under Steam: BO ID

Nuri Sahin

Good luck with this Cherry and co. I love competitive gameplay(especially that from PC) so hopefully you'll upload some vids for us

Could someone explain that to me and how to get it?

`<- it's that button, the button to the left of 1, also known as the tilde button. Press that while you're in a server, and you get a small console box up the top. type /steamid and a 16 digit value should pop up. Write it down or print screen it

cherryghost

Great guys, we got 5 Black Ops players on the Team now. Just waiting on 2 to add their Black Ops IDs and we can get started on some practice runs

Yakult

It doesnt seem to work for me.. Thought it could be the keyboard but nope, tried my 2 spares and still nothing comes up.

cherryghost

Go into the options settings and see if the console is enabled. It usually is by default though

Yakult

That worked a treat! Cheers Cherry!

Will we be informed about matches/practise on ESL or here?

Yakult

bump!

Any progress on this?

cherryghost

Yeah, there's finally 5 on the ladder. Everyone still up for this yeah? Going to fire up a private server today

cherryghost

Another update on this. Our match server is live. Anyone who wants to hop on and see the match settings, PM me on steam. Anyone who doesn't have me on Steam, my username is suicidalsid.

There's a Teamspeak 3 server up, it's on the sticky here Anyone who is interested in joining us, we would be glad to have more on board

SeantheMan

I can play if needed, Ill join it later if positions are still available.
I can also play BF , but haven't really touched vanilla since the launch of Vietnam, which is infinitely better.

cherryghost

Well join up on our boards.ie team so, and add your Blops GUID.

btw guys, we were rejected on the ladder application. Someone has their GUID wrong. Double check them please
