hmm are you sure you guys have played freeze? e+ freeze, the one on the mr server right now?.... slow ? tedious ?

ok, its slow cause... you aren’t running round 100 percent of the game,
and you have to rely of the skill and ingenuity of your team.....
we ARE talking about team play remeber here....

tdm is pretty much ffa but you only shoot half the people.....where is the team skill....? apart from finding good camp spots

tedious... when you have most or all of your team to unfreeze...and you have 3 frozen people in one place....and you have to unfreeze them while avoiding fire for 2 of the opposing team...and you do it and win the frag....

..or you are surrounded by 4 or 5 members of the other team and you frag all of them because you know to get fragged means either you are frozen. or worse you are the last in your team and you would loose the frag, (hmm perhaps that bit should be in the slow section ....while you team is willing you on.....

surely its what taemplay is all about

freeze requires the most thought, cunning and team reliance of all the game types (quake cooking sim..not withstanding)

its a true team game, and for all the glory hounds you can aim to be top top fragger as well

this might annoy you guys but i have to say it ...

pheonix:
first of all, its interersting to see you contradict yourself, let me get this straight. you want more action quicker game ? and then you want Bro9 cfg, which has slower reloading time, recently removed multi-jump, and self inflicted damage, which makes the game much slower. i agree with you on that it is a interesting cfg which is a change in the usuall instant rail cfgs. though with no bfg-jump, no multi-jump and slow reloading makes it less action filled and also makes the maps harder to make use of. make up your mind.

also, your math skills seems to be abit rusty, most ppl who done some math knows that variables like x and y is toltaly diffrent unless its written clearly that x=y. since thats a rule in maths e+ freeze (x) and cs (y) cant equall to the same thing, even the variable "booring" (z) is a varible, which obviously makes it variable. so refresh your maths and reconsider. since e+ is q3 and cs is hl its even more varibles which makes it a very naive calculation. so stop that BS. no hard feelings though, its your opinion, so w/e.

SuperBo:
fresh up on your language skills ... its quite clear that short.peaker is refering to midget-minded as ppl with small minds, small-minded, and as far as i know the word midget comes from a similar word that means small or exeptionaly small growth. so thats a weak argument and a lame attempt to pick a fight, you know very well that short.peaker doesnt mean that you have smaller brains etc. he probably meant that you gotta open up and try this thing.

iam fine with TDM, though i would like to try freeze.

Opinion does indeed seem divided...perhaps the flag based games do require most in terms of true thought processes....and all out tactics......

there are players here your self included who have far superior knowledge of flag based games....and for sure genx seem to have the most players that are interested in this game type....maybe that’s cause you guys played the longest and/or perhaps its the game type you are most skilled in (just referring to freeze and flag games)....

Perhaps RTF is too tactical then for a league of players who on the whole don’t play or have nervier played RTF.....

so lets omit RTF from the equation as im sure it isn’t really on the cards for this upcoming league....

surely all things considered freeze is the best middle ground...
TDM, done in last league....RTF....not enough players can play it well enough.....

…ok I think I am starting to repeat mysel and labour the point... and im not sure anymore if this has become about our oppions of what we think is ths best game type..or what will be the best for the upcomming league

and just to add confusion…this was the original official post/poll…before is got of topic somewhat

ohh look im comming up to 200 posts and not one of them a whoring post..

Erm, my language skillsare quite fine thankyou And as to ph3 contradicting himself...

Explaining that midget means small...

Explaining to me that when he says midget brain (or buying expansionpacks) does NOT mean I have a small brain/mind?

What frustrated me about short's posts is that he is using harsh words even if they might not be intentionally offensive against people just because they have another opinion than him. Lots of people would probably agree that it might be fun to play another gametype *if* they played the first league which far from everyone did. This other gametype beeing FREEZE is what some are against. As for me, I am just talking about what I feel about freeze, I am not even playing this league so please ignore my posts when it comes to choosing gametype for the league, but I would like to be able to express my opinion about a gametype without beeing called midget-brained (whatever he means by it) because my opinion differs from his.

BRO config TDM/FFA/RTF <faster than> BRO9 config TDM/FFA/RTF <faster than> Freeze gametype any config.

Me, I like action, but I am tired of instagib, its not much action beeing instagibbed on respawn, and the reload time takes away lamers who use railswitch too.
