Hmm at top ten games...

Post by Wufflez »

The games list for LL10 bothers me a bit.

2 are RTS games, the other 8 are ALL FPS games. Gonna be seriously boring if everyone plays FPS games all the time (I'm looking at you D3TH, you CoD4 junky).

We seriously need an RTS tourny or something.

This is what the Games list is for. If you don't like the games in it, the only thing you can do is try and get people to add the games you do want, ask D3TH for pointers ;)

Also, don't add games you don't want to beat your chosen game to your games list :D

/edit: As i said in a previous post, if enough people want a small RTS tourney, then we can set something up ;)
If it bleeds, we can fry it :0D

well I would be 100% for some old school cnc classics.

I will warn however that this has been attempted in the past several times at llamas but failed due to the poorness of networking (needing IPX/SPX, can't cope with more then one network card being enabled and requring MAC to be set in game just to name a few) in these games. not saying it cant be done it will just take some persistance.

Surely it's a personal thing. While I like RTS games, I would find participating in a tourny boring. I happen to like FPS games mostly, and wouldn't find it boring if that is all that was played.....infact that is what I was hoping for, lol!

But yea I'm sure theres people who'll gladly play an RTS tourny. Last time it was cool to see people playing OpenTTD (Transport Tycoon Deluxe). A game I thought only nostalgic people like me play.

Yeah, the old cnc's can be a pain to work networked, but I believe it is doable, if one prepares in advance.

Remember ladies and gentlemen - the official games list does not dictate what you do between official tournies. We only need tournies in games that the majority have asked for, hence the list. ;)
