I'd be down to play some 2v2.
I made a 2v2 map that may need a few minor changes but is playable. I'm sure with this community you'll hear a lot of bitching but for me a change from the same old shit is welcome. Not sure if it's uploaded anywhere, churchmouth had it on his old server a few years ago. If anyone wants to test it out and give constructive criticism I'm open. |

For me personally, to have a single teammate doing the exact same thing as you about 60 times avg a match just gets a little boring over time I think. There's no real reward in it. You go 3v3 I'll take an interest. Because atleast then you can have some variation to your game-play, ya? Just an opinion. This is a good effort though.

I think he's just getting at how you can't mix things up with 2v2s. Its pretty much just one strategy n no variation. 3 players allows more options

Ah, well it is hard to mix it up now. Especially when you only play the same 4 2v maps.
But with the new changes in the most recent patch, and being open to playing non-2v maps, there is a good chance that it will not be just the same strats, same positions, and same outcomes. It seems like there may be around 10 people interested, Euro and US, which would give the league 5 teams. So, it would be nice if a few more people posted and showed some interest. Edit: : x does not equal

Alright, I'll join if two things happen:
1) Rules are well decided, and create a good balance for 2v2 matches. & 2) Teams are BALANCED. - I say this because when we had that league, it was pretty much "Who can beat BOSS." And the answer to that was no one really. I think a few teams, but BOSS had the title and overall record for a long ass time. Everyone should have a chance at winning and no team should be considered "the best." If you can make this happen, then I'm in. |

The balanced teams dilemma is unsolvable. People are either going to want to play with the people they want to play with or will not play at all. I'd much rather play with someone that makes the game fun than have a strictly balanced matchup every time, and it's even harder to "solve" with 2v2 given how few players per team there are to work with.

Ide invest into a decent computer if someone made an organized 2v league for this game. In my opinion, league play made up for at least half the community when this game was in its prime. Its a competitive game. Someone do this mod a favor and save it via creating a 2v league.

I've recently moved and am without internet connection. So, I won't be able to run anything, even though I really would like to. Sorry

It be cool if someone would start a 2v league for this game. I still care enough about this game to help the community. We got enough players for a decent 2v league rite now and the competitiveness of it could draw players. I know for a fact a lot of players quit playing because leagues such as ugc and the 4v league we had going died. Theres plenty of players that are interested in organized competition play but dont care for pubs. Who knows couldnt hurt ide even be willing to provide a server for the league if someones willing to make the site or whatevers needed. Talk to me on steam or something if your interested

MAKE THIS HAPPEN!
Im tired of pickups all day (by all day I mean 2-3 at night). I want to play some league games. Also, in terms of maps, many maps can be played 2v2 by just disabling certain routes. SD2, for example, is a great 4v4 map but is good for 2v2 by not allowing plank. Another example could be destroy. If you dont allow button, and only allow people to go button to deactive security it would be great for 2v2, 2 scouts on O, a main ramp soldier and a soldier on the flag in FR. Imo, many maps work for 2v2 than you think, theres alot of good maps that would work for 2v2. Mortality without the top, for example, could be fun for 2v2.

Hey All.
I am preparing to contact some major leagues to see if we can get some official FF action. The standard 8v8 / 9v9 will probably not be a go in this modern era of gaming. Teams will probably be 5v5 -> 7v7. We may need some of you veteran players to volunteer as admins. This would require writing rules, recruiting staff and administrating a division. My goal is to get some correspondence going in the next ~2 months. -Abs |

yeah guys i suggest you wake up and smell the bad smell of "we already tried this before and it failed miserably when ff had a more active playerbase" but if you want to waste your time then good luck anyway
