DarthCobra Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 Some ppl are just so rude. More ladders the better. We need more Team FFA ladders for the teams out there, maybe even a siege. Look fwd to some good matchs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Fisher Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 I might be intrested... But I have no idea as to what you do on 'ladders'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PG|Prometheus Posted November 19, 2003 Author Share Posted November 19, 2003 Ladders are just a way of matching people. It records all you wins and adds them up. As you win more matches, you rise up the ladder. But say, if you play someone on a low rung and win, you'll rise a few places, but if you play someone on a higher rung (as the nearer the top you are, the generally better you are) and win, you'll rise up quite a lot of places. Overall its just a fun way of regularly playing people and its down to you whether you play someone not as good, about the same, or better than you!

FK | unnamed Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 PG is tight ladder system, I wish you guys the best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PG|Prometheus Posted November 20, 2003 Author Share Posted November 20, 2003 Thnx unnamed. We're considering expanding to some more JA ladders (maybe s/o ctf with xmod 2) but if noone is interested in these ladders, it seems unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManaMana Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 Prometheus... There are many ladders out there... Why make THIS post sticky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PG|Prometheus Posted November 20, 2003 Author Share Posted November 20, 2003 Because this really is the most organised ladder I've seen. Others either are disorganised or far to complex (like drafting etc. People don't turn up, are late etc.). There aren't that many ladders out there actually. Plus the other ladder thread was made sticky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agen Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 Yeah, I signed up a few hours ago, looks nice and sleek 8-) I'm pretty prepared to get totally whooped by Cobra. EDIT: JediNiteDG has accepted your [{IGF}Agen_Terminator] challenge on the Jedi Academy DM 1vs1 Sabers NF ladder! JediNiteDG has chosen Hoth Canyon as the first map to be played, and Abandoned City as a tiebreaker if one is needed. Offered date and times are Nov 26 2003 at 7:30 PM EST, and Nov 28 2003 at 8:30 PM EST. :D Not to sure on his timing though... 1.30am :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Fisher Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 I was wondering, do you only get single saber? Or can you also get staff and duals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agen Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Well they'd have to let people choose whatever they want otherwise it's unfair No worries since i'm a singler anyhoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PG|Prometheus Posted November 21, 2003 Author Share Posted November 21, 2003 hehhe terminator, thats 1:30 here too >/ Maybe I'll miss that one lol All saber types and styles are allowed. All forces are allowed in ff dueling (although removing drain was considered as people can now drain health quicker than people can take it away). If this is the case, drain will be removed (or force regen lowered). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Fisher Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Yep, I'm a single saberist also No one like me online. BTW, if your wondering... My stats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PG|Prometheus Posted November 22, 2003 Author Share Posted November 22, 2003 Indeed. Unfortuantely, the vast majority of competetive players didn't move on from JK2. That leaves just a few and whatever new competetive players there are. Theres only a handful of players in other ladders (86 in the nf duel I think) and thats a poor turnout for a new game.

bodstevens Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 yeah best of luck, but this game is too random for any serious playing... The turn outs for all ladders for this will be poor due to random saber combat and lack of effective combos / skill ramp.... I only have seen 2 players on the FF ladder... s/o ctf is a lost cause with this game. And why the heck did LA have raven put the blue glow back for absorb? It makes it useless and gives drainers in duels a huge advantage. Also in ctf it makes the dark player not give power to the light siders when draining gripping ect...thus negating the reason for absorb to protect against attacks. Also the dark guy waits for absorb to turn off and wham drain drain drain .. I on a lan game dfa'ed an other player with red and he didn't die. then he hits me with the staff butterfly Staff version of red stance dfa and kills me right away...random i say.... and it was on a LAN....not over the net. Not being a jerk just pointing out why no one will play on ladders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being a jerk just pointing out why no one will play on ladders. Sure the game might be a bit random at times with hit detection etc. but pure skill is unbeatable in the long run. Also the DFA isn't a one hit kill anymore, it isn't randomness and the butterfly is much more powerful = you die. The butterfly is probably the staff's best move. gives drainers in duels a huge advantage Are you saying that people who aren't using drain, DON'T have the choice to pick drain or use it? just pointing out why no one will play on ladders Nope, Most of the competitive players were too used to jk2 to actually change to a different game. Unadaptability, mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
