Jailbreak Season Proposal

Postby blade » Sun Jan 25, 2015 4:55 pm

I was listening to grin, and he mentioned that he got burned out from ctf. I remember I was burned out from iCTF myself when I last played in 2012. I started thinking what other mods can work competitively.

I propose jailbreak. jb had potential but never tried competitively. It mixes teamwork with tdm and even 1v1. Some of the maps even have the ability to escape through boosting and other methods with teamwork. It brings out the best of CTF/TDM with the best of sDOM and even some BT on a few maps. Check it out in pugs if you must.

If sDOM works, I believe iJB can too. It is simply to change things up from time to time so people don't get burned out. There were tons of JB maps last time I played it many moons back.

I can dwell on it more, but I don't want to bore you with a very long post so I will leave it at this. If there is more interest, I can go into more in-depth information. I might even consider a return just for jb 8-)

The head collision doesn't work properly with newnet.

I think the head collision stuff is something to do with the lama or the jail kill zones, but I could be wrong.

^ Hope that comment is sarcasm.
Jailbreak is a totally awesome mod and all what blade said is the most truth ive read about it. It requires variety of skills. Shame it has never had he attention other mods have...

I used to play it with bots some time ago, only once got the chance to play it Multiplayer (for the same reason of the attention...)

Never understood the concept of a Lama though.
If it isn't much bother, can't a JB modified NewNet compile be done?

I could see it as a single day event. No way you could stretch it into a full blown league. Interest would wane tremendously, if you could even get people to sign up. Just look at what is happening to sDOM, barely hitting the lowest end of the estimated signups with a fully established mod that was successful not even a year ago

YES YES YES YES yess YES YES!!!! :D big love for jb. Im sure interest in mode would raise a lot once people would get to play it. Most have never done it. I d play it even with zp on 130 ping.
Head collision though? someone clarify it pls :/

can probably glitch out of the jails still

most maps are awful and completely unfair

the mod isn't compatible with newnet

most haven't ever heard of jb

the few that want to play jb haven't even tried to get a jb pug going, how do you expect to run a full league?

I don't know what JB involves as I've never played it, but I'd sign up as long as it's not insta :D

All these people saying YES! though.. Not even half of them would probably actually sign up if this event happened.

I'd sign up for iJB even if zp. Still makes sense if it gets pugged for atleast 1 month before that though. Can someone explain with more details why the mod isnt working in newnet?

JB was very fun that 1 time I've played it. I regret I haven't played it more.

1 day event would be best I think, or maybe 2 days (1 groups day and 1 play-offs-to-final day).
starting 12AM American time (19:00 eu time).

an LMS 1-day-tourney should be possible as well.

the 2x2 iCTF tourney as well.

there's so much to think about to do every second week something special.
wouldn't need to cost a real lot of energy to organize (it's the same templates/forums over and over again

An iLMS teamgame and iLMS FFA would be fun as well. iLMS FFA similar to KOTG would be fantastic.
