Default New Community Events

The Community events team has been recently doing some research and development into ways we can improve not only our events, but ways to engage the community in frequent, yet varied matches.

We are now ready to show you the fruits of our labour.

We will be hoping to host the following style of events:

Map Packs


Map packs such as the Retro pack (as seen above) will offer you three or four new maps for you to play on. it's supposed to give you a relaxed gaming experience in a new environment. It should hopefully add a little variation into your normal playing cycle, and give you something new to try. These events may well run for a few days, and will be on a passworded server. So if you feel like gunning on a new map with a few mates, then download the maps and join in.

Passworded Nights

Passworded nights are events where a specific amount of co-ordination is required to ensure maximum teamwork. In passworded nights we may well be setting out scenarios and secondary objectives for maps to add a bit more depth than flag capturing. Tasks such as the destruction of a bridge causing the opposing team to lose the ability to use armour on a map, or re-enforcements are only allowed to "wave spawn" into the main base/firebase at specific time intervals. This of course will be heavily monitored by an army of admins, but will lead to some very interesting matches.

Tournaments


Subject to demand and server availability, we will be hoping to host a variety of tournaments to allow you to have a bit more competitive game play. We will be trying to include those who may not be in a clan, and are just a group of friends, as they are a large portion of the community as well. With that in mind however, these sorts of events are still in the planning stages, and at the moment is still being researched to ascertain if there is enough interest to warrant the amount of work required to host such an event.

In-House Competitions


These will mostly be art based, and are aimed to see what skills the community has. Competitions in the future will include speed texturing a small item, photo shop skills, modelling skills, static skills, mapping skills, and some seriously weird skills. The priority is to create a competitive environment for many of the budding modders to practice techniques, get some helpful critiques, and maybe, catch the eye of developers. If your a regular haunt of the community modding forums, then this will be for you!


As you can see, we have moved on from our "tournament style" maps, with dedicated commanders and judges. Although organised matches were fun, the amount of work required for a couple hours of play was simply infeasible. With this new layout, we hope to offer you more frequent events that appeal to not only the hardcore teamwork gamer, but to those who enjoy competing with friends and clans, or who just want to try something new.

The other task of the R-COM team will be to assist server admins and communities in helping them host their own community events. From promoting their events, to modifying maps and creating user bars, we will do our utmost to ensure you guys have plenty of options to chose from in the future.

We hope you guys are as excited as we are to get these events rolling. the only thing we need now is an R-COM team! If you would like to give some spare time to help out the communtiy, then feel free to apply here.

Otherwise, feel free to have a discussion in this thread.

Signing off,

The Community Events Team.

I like the literal thinking for the events to make them less boring.
