If memory serves me right you guys placed 3rd.

(hly) #23

Pretty sure it was 2nd in 2007. I wasn’t on the team then so my memory is a bit foggy :smiley:

(Radea) #24

Yeah, it was 2nd in 2007.

  1. Dignitas
  2. Team HOT
  3. X6
  4. Demise
  5. 20ID [Decimated]

2008 was -

  1. Mamut.si [Dignitas]
  2. Kompaniet
  3. H2O [Decimated]

TeamHOT plain and simple, the only team to even beat the top euro team. FLAME ON, good thing their not sending 2 teams we might have to listen to the losing american teams root for the euros in the finals against us

It seems to me that this is vanilla 6v6, all vehicles unlocked. I hope you guys remember how to fly real gud :tongue:.

I hope Team Fate get to go, considering Team HOT and Decimated left long time ago and now suddenly appear again out of nowhere, whereas Fate stayed til now. They would deserve to present etqw more imho for not just being active when it comes to some comp with big prizes.

(NastyGURLLLLL) #28

you would be going to a tournament just because and not to win it. TeamHOT has maintained playing together and winning LANS, I can assure you that we would still be the best the US has to offer in this game. Most of us all still play pretty regular for fun

Team HOT

You probably are the best the US has to offer, I wont argue with that. Just find it ironic if you get to represent this game, when you left it so early and moved on. Especially because hollywood was one of the first to scream that etqw is a dead game and everyone should play wolfenstein. Fail, lol. Ah well.

Personally I just hope that Fate will go. But good luck anyways to any team that gets picked. :slight_smile:

“This totally shows how competitive gaming is fueled by prize money, you could probably take Hello Kitty Online and make a PvP tournament with $5000 prize and people would play it.” - bananas

Agreed

(INF3RN0) #32

I think that an elimination tourney is in order (perhaps already in the works) :wink:.

(Aristotle) #33

I will host it, winner gets nudes of fencing and hardcore.

(Shelly) #34

That would be pretty cool :smiley:

(Seanza) #35

Perhaps! :smiley:

(BMXer) #36

It would be cool if not only the team that gets picked but also at least one other team got access to the game. Regardless of who gets picked, they could actually practice a bit and have someone to scrim with in close proximity. It would kinda suck to go to something like WCG to play a game you have never really played vs a real team. Only seems fair especially considering how long the Koreans have been playing it… GO USA!!!

(Seanza) #37

Have you watched the videos?! Korea stand no chance.

(hly) #38

That’s why I’m in favor of a qualifier. However some teams have been known to boycott in the past.

(dommafia) #39

is there anywhere to see what the changes are? from the video I can see major map changes in sewers but I wonder if there are any gameplay/weapon-balance changes. Did SplashDamage make these changes or was the code handed off to a korean dev team? (most likely)

They’ve butchered my favorite mate!
