| Preparing to shut down |
| Posted on Friday, April 29, 2022 at 05:15:29 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
After a second life planet-rtcw is again going to shut down.
Hosting is expensive and maintenance is a bother. Old php stack and app are vulnerable to all kinds of sqli/email attacks that it's just not worth it.
Bots are rampant and hackers are plentiful. Internet is a bad place to host well, pretty much anything.
I will migrate a few features like client stats and server-on-demand to stats.rtcwpro.com, but for now I'm just putting this baby to sleep once again. |

| Closing 2 years of client stats! |
| Posted on Wednesday, January 19, 2022 at 07:15:30 AM | -doNka- |
|
| |
A pet project for learning python and pandas while processing RTCW stats started in 2018. Lots of doubt went into who and why and what value it will provide to a community of 17 people that have already stats processors, but there was a vision. It was modern data science techniques applied to RTCW with more detailed, rich, more insightful data extraction and analysis. The next level was taking two games together and aggregating the results.
5000 executions later, one can say the adoption went well. 1.3G client stats submitted, 24 seasons aggregated in NA, ELOs, fun stats of every kind.
For the record, here are December 2021 stats:
https://stats.donkanator.com/endseason/stats-2021Dec.html
Now onto the exciting part - summary for the last 2! years! I have aggregated every single recorded game and made the final dataset of 105,000 matches public, forever.
Here are some insights I have put together:
https://stats.donkanator.com/endseason/RTCW+Yearly+Analysis.html
And if you are into that kind of thing - datasets, analytics, etc, you can run the provided Jupiter notebook here
https://stats.donkanator.com/endseason/RTCW+Yearly+Analysis.ipynb
The next frontier is https://stats.rtcwpro.com/ where stats are automatically submitted by all participating RTCWPro servers to the central repository. The automation makes this whole process a lot more fun, robust(after all bugs are out) and open to new possibilities. |

| Catching up on 2021 stats |
| Posted on Saturday, December 11, 2021 at 09:40:49 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
Most of my time is going to RTCW Pro stats - https://stats.rtcwpro.com/leaders
It's an exciting data flow where all RTCWPro servers around the world submit stats automatically to a central processing location. Match records are stored, processed, and made available within seconds. This is the next frontier of RTCW stats and it needs more priority/time than older client files.
To keep the promise, here are the stats for 2021 August-November. I will promptly close December when the month is over and will probably not have any more client-based seasons. There are no plans to take down (maybe refactor to a cheaper solution) old stats upload functionality at this time.
Enjoy:
August 2021
September 2021
October 2021
November 2021 |

| Community project for RTCWPro awards |
| Posted on Tuesday, November 16, 2021 at 09:58:39 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
World RTCW players, I'd like to invite you to contribute to the current RTCWPro stats project https://stats.rtcwpro.com/
I need help right now with your ingenuity and coding to process game events and produce award insights.
Task: provided a python array of RTCWPro events (kills, etc) you need to produce a match award like "Top Killer" or "Backstabber"
How to get started?
1. Copy everything in this folder to your PC and run just to test.
-- https://github.com/donkz/rtcwprostats/tree/master/test/gamelog_process
2. Dig into the code and comments to see what is the test setup and actual code
3. Write your own class and plug it in where comments are!
-- Be nice and do some good tests and encapsulate your code safely into try/catch clauses.
4. Pass the code back to me and i will work to bring it into common repository.
Comments are welcome!

| RTCW Servers OnDemand |
| Posted on Sunday, July 18, 2021 at 07:31:57 AM | -doNka- |
|
| |
I'm rolling out a new RTCW server hosting solution!
Anyone can request an RTCW Pro server on demand by a click of a button. All you have to do is to head over to Server OnDemand link and request one in a region next to you.
It takes about 2 minutes for the server to provision and depending on a region, the address always will be:
na.donkanator.com (Virginia)
sa.donkanator.com (Sao Paolo)
eu.donkanator.com (London)
The template for the server is a container maintained by msh100 - https://github.com/msh100/rtcw
BTW , this guy deserves major recognition for the amount of work he put in. His RTCWPro container provides a amazingly flexible option for RTCW server hosting. |

| 2021 RTCWPro Spring Fling servers |
| Posted on Saturday, April 24, 2021 at 02:54:07 AM | -doNka- |
|
| |
These are the servers for the tournament, please first check with admins if there's any doubt.
t1.donkanator.com resolves to 54.173.77.70
t2.donkanator.com resolves to 34.201.58.197
/connect t1.donkanator.com;password cup2021
/connect t2.donkanator.com;password cup2021
Both servers have RTCW on default port 27960 and additional 27962
For those far far away from US/Virginia region - Europe, SA, Australia, try the following addresses to the same servers. They have enhanced networking enabled and could have lower ping and less jitter
eu.t1.donkanator.com
eu.t2.donkanator.com
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAxrPQ3ycsQ&t=1s
For the good citizens that help retain stats
PLEASE SUBMIT STATS WHILE SELECTING REGION: NA and MATCH TYPE: Event/Tournament
?page=upload_stats
Reminder: to collect stats you need to set logfile 1, I have a windows shortcut like this for example:
"D:GamesReturn to Castle WolfensteinWolfMP.exe" +set fs_game rtcwpro +connect rtcwpro.donkanator.com +exec myfavoriteconfig.cfg +logfile 1
Additionally , you can use these URLs as server browsers
http://t1.donkanator.com/
http://t1.donkanator.com/27962/
http://t2.donkanator.com/

| November Season Closing |
| Posted on Monday, November 30, 2020 at 10:23:30 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
Another season came to an end and although this may look a little slimmer - much more exciting things are happening.
RTCW is getting a new mod - RTCWPro in place of OSP that served well for 18 years, but lost support almost as long ago. RTCWPro is still in very active development, but the NA scene is putting it to a good test. The stats processor was out of tune with the new client and vice versa, so quite a few stats simply went unrecorded or unreported. There's still plenty of activity to go around.
Here are the November 2020 stats. Congrats to people picking up some medals!

|

August was an interesting month - quakecon hype, most scrims since 2004, lots of PUGs and of course large numbers of new players in pubs on Thursdays/Sundays. Some players are taking time off after the QuakeCon burnout, but our numbers of regular players are stronger than ever!
These are the final stats for the season:

Elo curves are coming soon!
Congratulations to the season winners!

| Raiser retirement #57 |
| Posted on Tuesday, July 14, 2020 at 02:20:45 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
Raiser is close to beating Brett Favre with his retirement drama, but this one we are ready to take very seriously:
I just wanted to say guys I have enjoyed playing with everyone it was nice actually coming back and playing RTCW the past four years but after being banned from the NA discord a month ago for a ridiculous reason I thought that would be a long enough punishment in which the admins thought different deciding to double down and keep me and h2o banned. Thank you to the Euro community for welcoming and allowing me to play in the gathers while I didn’t have a job for those two months it was a very stressful time for me back then but being able get away from the real world and play with you guys so competitively it was alot of fun. It’s time for me to uninstall and walk away from this game. I don’t agree with holding these bans from both communities and I can guarantee you I am not the only one who’s thinking it. I had a couple of guys message me asking to join their team for qcon too but it looks like that’s not gonna be able to happen. Good luck to everyone I’ll miss both the NA and the Euro commmuity except for Caff, Nigel and Miles.
Shoutout to the NA original admin crew Virus, Gut, Cypher for organizing all the tournaments the last four years. Eternal - Hanging in there with everything that happened in the NA community always having my back trying to keep me in the community. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to control how I acted in these discord channels it’s a lot harder for me than you think.
Last but not least the Euro admins for everything they did to try and organize with the NA admins to make this qcon event happen it breaks my heart I will not be able to participate and this is why I need to move on.
Take care everyone.
Fr4gster, Sneaky, Raiser 2002-2006 - Raiser 2016-2020

| Updated versions of Cipher and Nordic are now available! |
| Posted on Thursday, June 25, 2020 at 04:01:02 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
(from source)
Here are some of the major changes:
Cipher (B2)
- added ladder clip to the sides of the river (and raised the water level) so people can get out easier
- resized and restructured the lower complex to make it more straight forward and scalable for 3v3
- removed explodable barrels for stability
- various textural and staging upgrades to improve visual clarity
https://s3.amazonaws.com/donkanator.com/rtcw_maps/te_cipher_b2.pk3
Nordic (B2)
- fixed bug that made it possible to hear sounds from distant areas
- fixed bug where destroyable grates remained after being broken with non-explosive weapons
- fixed bug that made fences solid/bulletproof
- added drop-down from lower axis spawn to emergency access tunnel / planning room
- added more initial spawn points at the north turret
- added outside entrance to office balcony ladder
- removed explodable barrels for stability
- restructured the office/warehouse area to make it more straight-forward
https://s3.amazonaws.com/donkanator.com/rtcw_maps/te_nordic_b2.pk3
For both maps, I also standardized the objective flags so that the primary objective (documents) is the at the top, and the forward spawn flag is the bottom. Sometimes the announcement that the objective taken doesn't get heard, and in that case this should make it easier for people to determine if the primary objective is in play.
Thanks to all those who provided useful feedback. Please download these maps before you join the pug as we will be playing them starting 6/25/2020 |

| Corona Season 3 Results!! |
| Posted on Monday, June 1, 2020 at 03:51:13 AM | -doNka- |
|
| |
Corona season 3 is over!
We had another great month with 53 unique players and 30K pug kills. This month had seen increasing amount of smaller, more constant pickup games 3v3, 4v4 mid-week games that we agreed not to include in general PUG season.
Some improvements to stats:
-Best friends stats - see pairs of players that win together the most
-Weapon signatures - changed weapon kills to weapon percentages. Kills are pretty meaningless with people playing various amounts of time. Percentages, on the other side, can help you benchmark player styles against each other
-Other percentage base fields have better sorting.
Move onto the results:
https://s3.amazonaws.com/donkanator.com/stats/2020-05-31-May-Corona3.html
Thanks for all participants, active and casual, and congratulations to the winners!!! |

eternal 05/11/2020
@everyone Decka passed away on Saturday evening. All the details are not yet known, but he was recently released from the hospital following surgery. While he hadn't participated in this community recently, Decka has been a regular character in these parts for the past two decades. He was a champion, and a great person behind his sometimes prickly exterior. I am at a loss for what to say, but he will be missed.
Our next pug night is Thursday 5/14/2020. Let's get some games going to remember a good player and a teammate.
Get on discord https://discord.gg/wJqBDsT
Get on RTCW/OSP: decka.donkanator.com
If you need to install RTCW, look for fully packed installation in the #reinstallation-and-files discord channel https://discord.com/channels/272106365307060225/419127457497612298
Run wolf as admin, generate and change new CD key (otherwise you will collide with others)
Join the server for a few minutes ahead of time to make sure your config and punkbuster work.
..we start around 9PM EST |

| Corona Season 2 Results!! |
| Posted on Friday, May 1, 2020 at 05:45:00 AM | -doNka- |
|
| |
April brought even bigger numbers, more games, and new names than the previous record reason. We are dealing with splitting teams into 4 teams into different servers!
This month I enabled web upload for rtcwconsole.log files straight from the users and it’s been getting a lot of traction in the NA community as well as the EU. Please check out the “upload stats” link on the left navigation bar.
I have also coded a major overhaul to some metrics:
-New Tapout penalty for suiciding too much. It offsets high KDR for the panzers that vape a lot and /kill to boost KDR. It’s far from all malicious, but it’s a justified penalty to offset KDR.
-Megakills, Killstreaks, and Win% are awarded in ranges, instead of rankings. For example, anyone over 20 Killstreak gets the best rank, over 15 - second, etc.
-Panz penalty was reduced to 3 because Tapout is doing a good job to penalize all the vapes.
-Smoke kills penalty is 0-2 (one less).
-New ELO calculation that takes into account all players' games since January 1. It ranks by Kill performance less/more points for wins. Special weapons kills worth 50%.
-Add many countless bugs, styles, and time improvements!
Congratulations to season winners!!!
Anyone who plays on open nights and plays over 40 games is ranked.
Now head to the stats to see FINAL RESULTS

| Weekly OSP / TF2 Team Assembly |
| Posted on Monday, October 15, 2007 at 06:50:20 PM | BYE|ralphtehnader |
|
| |
Hope to see you all again on Wednesday around 8pm for some OSP gaming. The vent info is still the same.
After playing OSP for about an hour or so, let's play some TF2 for the remainder of the evening. I concur with the TF2 players on here that we should put together a team. I would be willing to host a server if there's enough interest to develop strats and pub on home turf on a 18 player server or so.
So far we have:
-Ralph
-Donka
-Juventus
-Ding
-w0rd (Papi Chulo)
-Bullz
-Paco's Gun
-BigshoT
-Snappas
-playa
-CaseyJones
-Spiza
-Tyson
-be4st
Anyone else interested?
If so:
http://www.totalgamingleague.com/team/Triad
join pw: vodka
Edit: As for the team name, some have suggested Team RtCW, which is cool. I was thinking of Team Wolfplayer or sticking with the classic BYE| = Bomb Your Enemies to go with the spam :D |

| TF2 4 Newbs Tonight? |
| Posted on Tuesday, October 9, 2007 at 03:42:51 PM | BYE|ralphtehnader |
|
| |
Hey Folks,
It's been a while since I've been excited about a new game, and with Donka talking up TF2 and Orange Box arriving in the mail, I'd like to get some peeps on vent tonight to go over the fundamentals, and give it the old college try.
And if you don't have a copy of TF2 yet -- it's 5-games in one Box, for $45 bucks. Awesome deal.
http://www.ebgames.com/product.asp?product_id=646931
You can also order via Steam I'm told.
If you'd like, stop by at 8pm EST:
Vent Server: ventrilo4.va.powervs.com:5066
Password: bcdcrules
I'll make a TF2 channel, and maybe we can hop on ECGN afterwards for some comparing/contrasting.
Rock on,
Bill |

| What's your dm_base of the future? |
| Posted on Sunday, September 9, 2007 at 08:11:23 PM | MUST B H4X |
|
| |
So... RTCW is bleeding out dead and there are some interesting games comming out rather soon (which means long before RTCW2 will ever come out). I would like to know what games the RTCW community (of the past and present) is planning to move on to or at the very least is looking forward to. Are there any former RTCW teams that are planning to head to another game and stay as a team? What are you guys looking forward to and why?
I know that personally I'm looking forward to Crysis because of the insane engine and the way that you customize the style of play. I'm also looking forward to Call of Duty 4 as far as competition goes, because it looks like (for the most part) it would be a good competition game. Haze is a game that looks like it may have a good single player. The game Severity that is being developed for the CPL for obvious competition reasons... as well as StarCraft II because of the replayability of a good RTS.
No need to say RTCW2.
(p.s. anyone know where invisi has gone? :p) |

| RTCW OSP 3v3 Tournament |
| Posted on Thursday, August 23, 2007 at 02:23:51 AM | cr//st33la |
|
| |
Over the past few weeks myself and a few others have been working on throwing a RTCW OSP 3v3 Tournament. Before ordering servers, and posting the sign up page, we would like some feedback on the idea from the OSP community. So we know if it was a waste of time or if teams will sign up and participate. There is still a bit of work that needs to be done but if we get the feedback we hope we do sign ups will be available shortly.

| Gang Kidnaps Top Gamer to Get His Password |

An armed gang of four kidnapped one of the world's top RPG gamers after one criminal's girlfriend lured him into a fake date using Orkut, Google's social network. After sequestering him in Sao Paulo, they held a gun against the victim's head for five hours to get his password, which they wanted to sell for $8,000. And yes, the story gets even better.

Small mentions of RTCW 2 in an article over @ IGN
"IGN: So what's going on with id right now?
Tim Willits: We have a lot of stuff going on right now. You're here to see Quake Wars [check out that preview here] so I won't go into that right now. We're working with Raven on Wolfenstein right now and we'll have a little more to talk about with that at QuakeCon. We're here talking to potential licensees about id Tech 5, which is the structure of our new title being developed internally."

| OSP Pub Night This Thursday. |
| Posted on Monday, July 2, 2007 at 03:32:11 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
 It's time to stop beating around the bush and put your mouth where the balls are(Dodgeball). The ideas and requests are flying around to get the OSP night going on. We've seen a few suggestions for both, a pug or a pub night. Let us start with a pub night to see how many people we can gather on a given night. I'm sure with what we have right now we can easily fill up a 16-20 slots server and get some good old wolf OSP action going like the old times.
OSP Server IP: 66.254.117.183:27960 }-{eaven's Gate by The BirdZ 333 FPS!!!!! (CHI, needs rotation)
I'm sure most of the people would like to join some vent to chat, so we need a Vent info as well.
Vent Server IP: TBA
OSP pub night Thursday July 5th 9EST

| Article: RTCW Competition History |

|

Believe it or not, some people don't even know that article column exists, so there's a need for this post.
Karpov & Co spent quite a bit of time lining up the most detailed history record of RTCW competitions and major dramatic events that followed. Besides actual events you will find some scores, rosters, champs, and comentaries by those who could remember their lives behind the monitor 5+ years back. The whole thing came out to be pretty lenghty, but read it anyway, you will be entertained.

| So far has ET:QW met up to your expectations? |

Splash Damage opened up the Enemy Territory Quake Wars beta to the public yesterday. Currently only fileplanet subscribers (have to pay $) can only test out the beta. In the next couple of days it should be open up to non file planet subscribers (free) but you will not be guaranteed an etqw beta key. There will only be 60,000 slots. If you are not in the beta already, there is close to 1,000 people playing online on about 140 servers across the US, Australia and Europe.
Splash Damage had made it clear that this is a beta version and not a demo. Many people on various forums that have played many previous team based games are already calling it a failure.

If you are in the ET:QW beta please post your feedback.

It's been a while since The Hammer interviewed me on P-RtCW, but I wanted to give you all the heads up that I'm still making music with my band, and we recently were nominated for 7 awards in the Hartford Advocate Bandslam 2007! It would be very sexy (and cool) to have the support of the RtCW community to help bring home some wins this year! As a gift for your efforts, I've included a link to download our most recent album, Diving Dreamers entirely for free. It's available on iTunes, CDBaby and Awarestore, but for your support, we're happy to provide you it for free.
Please show your support for my guitar hax by placing your ballot vote for Bill Carleton Band in the following categories:
-Best Original Rock
-Best Pop Rock
-Bill and Lee - Happy Hour Duo
-Dan Prindle - Best Bassist
-Bryan Kelly - Best Drummer/Percussionist
-Lee Sylvestre - Best Guitarist
-Tony Parlapiano - Best Keyboardist
Thanks so much! And if anything, let me know what you think of the album (good or bad feedback)!
You can also check out our music on MySpace and at www.billcarleton.com

| id Software announces new game engine |
| Posted on Friday, June 1, 2007 at 07:49:30 AM | [+ oo] rampage |
|
| |
http://www.gametrailers.com/viewnews.php?id=4696
By Eugene Huang
With releases for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 scheduled for the end of this calendar year, Enemy Territory: Quake Wars now seems to be comfortably on autopilot. With this joint project between id Software and Splash Damage soon to be complete, it now seems as if id has been freed to work on yet another engine to be used with another brand new franchise.
At a London event earlier this week, id CEO Todd Hollenshead was the first to reveal the news to GamesIndustry.biz.
"We are working on an all-new franchise," he stated. "It's not Doom, it's not Quake, it's not Wolfenstein, it's not Enemy Territory, it's not even Commander Keen! It is a new id brand with an all-new John Carmack engine, and I think that when we show it to people, once again they'll see, just like they saw when we first showed Doom 3, that John Carmack still has a lot of magic left."
Since creating Doom 3, Carmack has had his hands full porting games such as Doom RPG and Orcs & Elves to mobile platforms. But in comparison to those relatively minor projects, this newly announced game would be their first major independently-developed title in nearly three years.
Hollenshead also states, however, that Carmack is still feverishly working on the engine, which he hopes will be used "across a wide range of applications and different games within [id's] suite of franchises". As it is still in its early development stages, Hollenshead was not at liberty to discuss details, but promises to make a formal announcement when the time is right.

| Details On New Wolfenstein Development. |
| Posted on Saturday, May 12, 2007 at 10:15:08 PM | -doNka- |
|

From Yahoo News:
The company is currently working on a new game based on the "Wolfenstein" series, and with newer motion-capture technology, it is working with a local actress to be the character in its movie.
...
The game won't come out until sometime in 2008, but the name and many other details about it are being kept secret, which is just one clue at how competitive this industry has become.

| Some Crazy Internets Sh*t about Planet-RTCW and Wippuh.... |
| Posted on Thursday, May 3, 2007 at 12:38:23 AM | -doNka- |
|
| |
I've been trying to follow some leads from Planet-RTCW logs and something totally ridiculous caught my attention. Some half-dead site is bashing Wippuh for I quote, "attempting to fraudulently obtain money from the Wolfenstein community".
To sum up the content:
The author talks about a news item posted by Wippuh a while ago in which he asks for charity donations. Then author claims that Wippuh is a con man and explains why he thinks so.
Read full thing here: http://www.dhutchison.co.uk/wippuh.htm
The rest of the site is pretty entertaining too. |

NA.RTCW is having that time of the year when the activity is not as great due to filler time between competition seasons. There's simply not much to write in the times like these, so I'd like to turn to our small, but strong community for support. This is a good time to step out of the generally inactive crowd with some creativity and enthusiasm. Is there an article you always wanted to write to bring up a discussion? Some old screenshots saved on your hard drive? Some other unthinkable project ideas that have been eating you forever? It's a good time to submit them now. Just use your judgement and make sure that your news/article/POW is somewhat Wolfenstein related.(Please don't try to sell laptops here like spiza).
Banks have submitted an article, that I hope will not go unnoticed:
http://planet-rtcw.com/?page=articles&id=264
If you have some project in mind, but you're not sure if your effort will not duplicate someone elses existing/upcoming work you can talk to me or make a comment about it in most discussed news item(not sure who uses forums around here).

| Season Runnner Up - Warchild Under The Spotlight. |
| Posted on Saturday, February 24, 2007 at 09:32:21 PM | -doNka- |
|

Looks like highlife/blur-warchild was busted with silo bot a day after the TWL OSP finals.
Here's a piece from Dyno:
I certainly didn't want to see this violation and was saddened when considering it's ramifications. I don't doubt that we will hear from warchild saying it was one of his other family members. I know we've heard this before and I would be inclined to believe warchild since his name has not been used with that GUID for a long time.

|

I apologize for making a separate news article for this, but...
I REALLY NEED TO HEAR FROM RGR AND HL ABOUT WHETHER THEY CAN PLAY THIS THURSDAY (INSTEAD OF WEDNESDAY). I do NOT want to skip a week but I'm not going to force the teams to play on either Valentine's day (Wed) or on an alternative weekday (Thursday) without consent. As I've said in match comms and in private messages, I need to know TODAY whether RGR and HL are available (SS and TTT have said 'yes') or else I have no choice but to skip a week which sucks for everyone)
Email me at gromit@teamwarfare.com or post in match comms.
Thanks,

| NiteSwine has made a statement. |
| Posted on Wednesday, February 7, 2007 at 07:53:14 PM | [a]streetz-work |
|

Ive quoted this from teamwarfares forums.. NiteSwine wrote:
"I never said the door was closed on TWL sponsored leagues for RtCW. I did say we did not plan to continue, back-to-back or continuous leagues for RtCW. Options are available.
I will say I've taken some notice of various discussions and isolated activities within the community towards the development of options for continued RtCW competition. I'll admit I'm pleased by it. Maybe the real transition will be at the community level: with more activity and support emerging from the community, it may help justify future leagues and ladders hosted by TWL.
For a time, TWL will seek to encourage the community to put together options and explore new opportunities. I think this is a great opportunity for the community. If we (as a team or individuals) can help, ask us -- I'm sure you'll find us more than accomodating. I'll spend some time reviewing things as they develop, and as an admin team we'll decide when/if it's best to present another season here at TWL.
As for planet being the hub of all things RtCW, that's great. The place serves a purpose. Using it as a foundation for a venue intended for constructive discourse might be a challenge, though. Our forums are here, too. There's more expectation for contructive input here and less tolerance for ill behavior. If the community wishes to truly discuss it's options, our forums are available, too." |

| Continuing RTCW Compeition... Continued |
| Posted on Saturday, February 3, 2007 at 05:11:45 AM | MUST B H4X |
|
| |
Well, after a few days of deliberation the old thread died quickly. I want to know if there is still enough support to continue RTCW Competition. There are currently 12 teams with a total of 152 players in the 13th season of TWL OSP (80%+ active). I also know that if this were to happen, I myself could probably get 5-10 old players to start playing again, as well as caffeine may join back up with the lack of TWL influence :D. I think if people are serious about this then we need to actually talk about it rather than sitting around thinking that it's just going to happen without any input from the community. That being said, if this were to happen, there are a few things needed to consider:
1. Admins. This is an obvious one, without someone managing the competition, there is no competition. I know that there are a lot of experienced players in this community that know the game, and people such as Mortal who set up the BFB tournament and would have a bit of knowledge in the field. As well as people such as Donka who (I assume) would be able to do a good job at maintaining a website. If you think you would make a good admin, post. Perhaps we could take a vote on all of the nominations and the top 5 would become admins? Maybe this league should have admins that are community-elected? As well, hakudushi said that he was willing to take on the challenge.
2. Infrastructure. As Donka suggested, there is the option of using Donka's Wolfenstock. Highone also suggested keeping the TWL infrastructure, however I do not think that would work out as well as hoped unless TWL had absolutely no control over it, and I don't see them agreeing to that.
3. Server configuration. I believe that at this time the current TWL OSP configuration is quite good, although if there are major concerns people can voice them here.
4. Servers. I know that Dark can supply a server (possibly two) if this league is to happen. How about you? Would many clans agree to keep paying for the servers that they have up? I don't think that the league would need to provide any servers seeing as most teams have their own.
5. And of course, money. Some people suggested that the league require a fee to play, but I do not think that it's a good idea. However, I have come up with a suggestion. Since this league would be 6v6, and it would be costly to award 6 prizes, maybe if one prize were donated it could go like this: The finals match is viewed on WTV, after the match, a poll is set up and viewers vote on who the MVP of the match was for the winning team. The MVP would then win the prize. However, there does not even have to be a prize, and I'm sure that a lot of people wouldn't find not getting a new mouse or something such a big deal.
With that being said, I think that there should also be a player cap. 12 people per team sounds sufficient, that gives room for 6 starters and 6 back-ups. The more teams the better.
Post any ideas, suggestions, comments, and support.
Oh and I couldn't think of a name for the league :O |

From Activision press release:
"The company believes that its fourth quarter results will be significantly impacted by higher legal expenses relating primarily to its internal review of historical stock option practices, including expenses relating to the previously announced informal SEC inquiry and derivative litigation, and its decision to move the release of Enemy Territory(TM): QUAKE Wars into fiscal year 2008."

| TWL OSP the 13th: Week 8 UFO |
| Posted on Thursday, January 25, 2007 at 10:03:46 PM | SyndicateGromit|TWL |
|
| |
TeamWarfare OSP 13 League
The Playoffs start next week so let's start aiming for the head.
Week 8 will be played Jan 31:
Week 8 matchups
Syndicate.Soldiers v. Xtreme.$oldiers
TheJollyRGR [:x] v. Animate.gaming
Team_Trinity v. The Pain Train
Point.Blank v. CriticaL IMPulse-
|DaRk| v. Total Havoc
High Life v. Cross:+:Breed
Default Date and Time: Wed night, JANUARY 31, 2007 @ 10:00pm EST.
Week 6 Map: TE_UFO
Deadlines:
Teams and rosters are locked.
PLAYOFFS:
I suspect that we will go to an eight (8) team playoff this season. The main reason for this is that with only 12 teams at this point (last season we had 16), having every team make the playoffs would require giving 4 byes the first week. Rather than forcing the top 4 teams to wait 2 weeks between matches, I think the more reasonable thing is to drop the lowest 4 teams from the playoffs.
I am, however, willing to bend to the will of the league. Anyone who strongly favors a 12 team playoff, please post here or otherwise message me.
Assuming an 8 team playoff picture, this is a VERY important week as all but 3 teams have their final rankings up in the air. glhf.

| Continuing RtCW Competition |
| Posted on Thursday, January 18, 2007 at 04:56:15 PM | Mauler [c0ff] |
|
| |
To those with interest:
After reading up on the TWL forums about the end of RtCW, it seems there is still quite a bit of interest. If I can get enough people interested, I'm willing to organize and host RtCW myself. I think the easiest way to determine this is through email.
Anyone who can field a team of 6+ people, please send me an email with your name and everyone who would be on your roster: rtcw@c0ff1.com
My long term goal is for this to start small and build up over time. When/if we build enough interest (or even for the first season if we have 8+ teams) I'm happy to do a pay-to-play system in order to keep people competitive. 8 teams x 6 players x $10 = $480 minimum, which comes out to $80 per player. If it grows we can talk about more options.
Depending on what I hear from people, I may organize something in the form of a website or forum in order to discuss the concept further. |

| New Poll - Sensitivity. |
| Posted on Thursday, December 21, 2006 at 07:34:54 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
This topic will not die even when everyone switches to consoles. Mouse/controller sensitivity is a very personal preference that takes sometimes days to get used to and only seconds to lose. This is one of the most addressed variables of all times on all forums in most mouse related games.
Do you know what your sensitivity is? No everybody realizes that sensitivity is not just a number that you type in your console.Read more... |

| You Got Mice! |
| Posted on Wednesday, December 13, 2006 at 07:16:35 AM | -doNka- |
|
| |
There is one article on the internets that has been raging the ratings in the IT world for the last couple of days. Sujoy, the father of THE esports site ESReality.com, posted an amazing research on benchmarking computer mice. This is one of the most "sensitive" topics in the gaming world, so I'm sure most of you will relate to it.
Picking out the best mouse is a tricky business because we have to combine different benchmark scores. It's like judging cars where each one has a 0-60mph time, a top speed, and different suspension. A Formula 1 car might be perfect for racing at Monza, but won't do so well in a cross country rally. I've combined all of the mouse results by taking them as a factor of the top performer.

| Possible Shrub Season?? |
| Posted on Friday, December 1, 2006 at 07:07:04 AM | [a]str33tz |
|

Niteswine posted on TWL Forums shortly after SS won the season.
http://www.teamwarfare.com/forums/showthread.asp?forumid=52&threadid=341678
Congrats to SS on another win, and also to SeaDawg on another season. Tried some new things this last go'around, and it seemed to work out pretty well.
So, let's talk about a potential 7th league for this mod. Is there enough interest? I'm inclined to delay starting anything before the 1st, but we can determine interest-level and set up some parameters.
From the hip, I'm leaning towards a standard maps season, using the following parameters:
* No-shows will result in a -1 point, applied to their league point accumulation.
* Any team with less than 6 league points at the end of the 8 week regular season will not be advanced to the playoffs.
* There are 8 weeks in the regular season. All teams should earn at least 8 league points. A team that plays 7 matches, but no-shows on a single match will end up with only 6 league points.
* A team that no-shows more than 1 time during the regular season will be unable to participate in playoffs.
* Beginning after the second week of regular season, any team having a negative league point value throughout the remainder of the regular league will be removed from the league.
* A team joining at mid-season will need to win at least one match in order to earn 6 or more league points -- call it a risk for joining late -- so, join now! |

MESQUITE, Texas - Nov. 20, 2001 - Retail outlets are bracing for the blitzkrieg with the announcement that id Software's Return to Castle WolfensteinTM for the PC is now available. Activision, Inc. and id Software confirmed today that the title has been shipped to retailers and will be available on November 20 for a suggested retail price of $49.99.
Today we're celebrating 5 years since RTCW hit the shelves back in 2001. That's been exciting time for all of us and there's more to come. During that time frame people grew, finished schools, graduated from universities, got and changed jobs, married, had kids. It's a lot of time if you try to go back and remember what happened to you while you were actively involved into RTCW scene.
Let us have a 5 years anniversary celebration OSP pub tonight at Hell Gate 1 with stats and your old friends. Attach [5] at the end of your nickname. Please, let your friends know who you are by showing up with your real nickname.
Please make sure your friends know about it. Notify them via MSN, AIM, Xfire if you wish.

| Shrub Night Tonight |
| Posted on Thursday, October 5, 2006 at 07:53:15 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
Tonight's the special night for shrub. First time since ..ever TWL Shrub league will have it's own predictions and stock sections set up. You can use the links below to use the site features associated with TWL shrub league matchups.
View Upcoming Matches
View/Manage Stocks
Post Predictions
Notice that Richest Stock Traders section was modified to display only active users. Let me point out that it's the best time ever to bet your money since the OSP playoffs are over and Shrub teams are starting fresh. You have several hours before stocks and predictions lock themselves down for the rest of the night.
There were several questions about MOTW section of the site. It allows users to vote for their favorite matches, but it currently uses different algorithm to determine MOTW. It goes by the closest user predictions, not by the votes. I will think what could be done about it in the nearest future.
There are currently 15 teams in shrub season, and OSP season will be coming up soon.(this is actually up to TWL admins). Even though things always look a little slow between seasons there are still people who want to play league matches and pubs after having some rest. Make sure you tell your RTCW and ET friends about current activities and let them know what's coming up.
We still have two major pub servers from =Fedz=

I recently sat down with TosspoT, shoutcaster for Radio ITG and administrator with Crossfire. The result was quite an interesting interview.
TosspoT has accomplished much in his time in the European community, with him being apart of one of Europes largest community sites, a vast archive of shoutcasts for matches in ET, RtCW, CoD, Warcraft, and more!, and quite an interesting clan history.
He's a great guy, and I hope you enjoy the interview!

| Battle For Berlin - We need Testers, Admins, and your opinion! |
| Posted on Sunday, September 3, 2006 at 12:01:21 PM | Mortal :o |
|
| |
Battle For Berlin needs your help! We are looking for admins to help oversee matches, help spread the word about tournament updates, and provide their personal expertice as needed.
We are also looking for teams to test custom maps. We have quite a few selected that have passed the initial admin testing, but want to see what a team of competative players thinks of it. We currently need 2 more teams.
We also want your opinion on anything and everything! We want to know what CVARs you want, what maps you want, and what we should do to make the tournament better. Any of these can be posted at any time in our forums.
Battle For Berlin is also taking donations for better prizes and more servers, if you are intersted please read more about it on our news page.
Also, Team Registration is open, but please read the recent news posts on the site, and the rules, carefully before registering. We currently have 2 teams with all the required info submitted, and about 4 still needing more required info.
I hope to see more register, and please understand one crucial thing; you can change your roster, who your starters are, who your backups are, etc. until the tournament starts. Some players got confused and thought that when you submitted your team registery it was final. We would hope it would be, but we understand things change with time. Please register with what you have now; but understand that you can change your team info until the tournament starts. After the tournament starts, no changes of roster will be allowed.
We added a bar under the banner with links to the CVARs page, Files Page, Maps Page, Teams Page, Registration Form, and Forums to help your navigation. Hope it helps and hope to here from some of you soon!

| First NIC for Gamers! Reviewed |

|
| |
...in theory, that the CPU comes under no load for network processing, and all calls from software or games for network information go directly to the Killer NIC, eliminating numerous cycles from the CPU's processing loop. Cutting Windows' UDP protocols out of the loop also has the potential to lower latency between user and game server. The Killer NIC also prioritizes both inbound and outbound network traffic and can prioritize gaming packets above all others.

| Alias Says: 3 Days GG! |
| Posted on Friday, August 25, 2006 at 03:53:00 AM | -doNka- |
|
| |
Some of you might have seen Al!@s(dR, TV) playing on pubs with some strange looking names such as "10 days GG!". The meaning behind it is that Alias is going away to join the army in a couple of days. He's being sent to a boot camp first in South Carolina, and then.. well, who knows. Let's hope for the best. It seems for now that it's going to be a 4 year commitment with the United States Marines. Give a guy a round of applause as he leaves RTCW pubs to fight for the freedom in RL and wish him the best of luck in his endeavors.
(roger|dNk) if you gonna make a will, put one of the bulletings that your wolfenstein clan gets notified via irc
(alias`GG`3days) :) i will trust me |

I don't believe too many people around here are aware of the international RTCW scene. Warleagues.com:rtcw seems to be very much alive. What's interesting though, they seem to have same exact problems like we do around here: hackers getting busted every other week, rule changes, and major flaming. If 250 comments posts on planet-rtcw is not enough drama for you, go and check out euro RTCW competition website. |

They want to encourage as many teams as possible to join. Now I know many of you hate shrub... But please put into consideration that a lot of us shrubbers have come over to play osp. So please consider making teams and competing. This would give you ospers some off season practice and keep you all active. Once a team joins, every founder can send their 3 choices of maps to be played for this season and the most popular ones will be selected. Once again please consider joining/supporting the shrub league.
For anymore information about shrub season, see the forums or contact niteswine |

In recent events that have occured, TWL Admin Vixen has resigned. As you can see here http://www.teamwarfare.com/forums/showthread.asp?forumid=12&threadid=324773 Niteswine and staff is not happy about this and neither are the "Big Guys" over at TWL. Pretty much to make a long story short, they are thinking about shutting down our RTCW community. This pretty much means CUT THE SHIT EVERYONE!! We can't let stupid things get to us and let it upset people and make this small community look bad. Right now the only thing we can do is prove to the big guys over at TWL why rtcw should remain an active game at TWL. This means e-mail TWL, and the number 1 thing we should be doing now is involving everyone, the bani players, shrub players and osp players need to come together and post at TWL and show them the interest we still have for this game. Tell them why they should keep this game going and why this game is great. This event should encourage the whole RTCW community to come together more and participate in more leagues together.
Also, because of the departure of Vixen, we may not have enough servers next season if TWL doesn't shut us down that is. So lets see what we can do to get people to either donate torwards getting some servers or see if someone can donate them to us. |

From Caff:
"last round 2-2 birds hold 4:04 or 4:14 on sub. birds on offense w/ 50 seconds left in the match, 3 birds mysteriously "crash" (like, the big freeze, can't bring down console or alt+enter or end program, crash). so grom decides, on his own, that it didn't warrant a round reset. 3 birds (who were all alive and pushed into the sub) crashed. so those 3 players had to /kill w/ 9 seconds left on spawn, leaving a 3 on 6 until 41 seconds left on the clock. good admins."
New Poll up, tell us what you think! |

| Qcon Return to Castle Wolfenstein Banners!! |
| Posted on Monday, July 31, 2006 at 11:05:41 PM | KeP |
|
| |
Alright, so I didn't get any REAL submissions of ideas for the banners, so they will be pretty generic. Here is the image I used, it's the image from the front of the RtCW box.
There will be two of them printed out and pasted onto a foamboard backing. (Vinyl banners would have been about $200, kinkos wanted $160. So instead we have some easy prints on a foam backing)
They will be propped up on the table. Each is 32" x 42" so they should be fairly large and visible. In order to fit all the rtcw players onto a single table or several tables in an area, the area will be setup in a back corner. This will be a lower traffic area which leaves more space open for our fellow wolf players. The BYOC opens at 8am Thursday. Depending on when I get in, they will be setup that morning - sometime before noon. So if you are a wolf player setting up in the BYOC, keep an eye out for the 3 foot by 4 foot signs propped up on the table!!
Hope to see you all there! And I hope you can see the signs! |

GGL continues their series of interviews with the one and only Shea "Gizle" Smith:
Yet you have a passion to game a lot. What makes gaming so great for you?
It used to be my love for the game - RTCW. I was so obsessed with that game that I would literally stay up all night playing. Since the current gaming scene is in a weird position right now, it is mainly the relationships with people I have come to know and love playing with over the years, that keeps me around. Any game can be fun if you are playing with the right people. That is all it is for me - fun. (Also, I really do love watching males get angry when I kill them!)

| TWL OSP League: Week 5 Postponed for QCon |
| Posted on Monday, July 24, 2006 at 10:48:52 PM | SyndicateGromit|TWL |
|
| |
Although I'm still reeling from the news that an eight 5-man team ET tournament won out over RTCW, we've decided to pay our respects to id software and those of you traveling to Dallas next week by postponing Week 5 from Wednesday, August 2 to Wednesday, August 9.
The submarine will continue receiving short-lived repairs while awaiting its destruction on August 9.
Please note that this announcment pertains to WEEK 5, not this week's match on Village (I'd like to think that last statement is not necessary, but I think we all know that it is ;)) |

| Week 3: UFO Exploits |
| Posted on Monday, July 17, 2006 at 08:57:51 PM | SyndicateGromit|TWL |
|
| |
NOTICE:
Both the top and backside of the mountain to the North of the radio building are OUT-OF-BOUNDS this week.
For anyone who wonders why, please go to the backside of the mountain and head West. There, you will find huge clipping errors which allow a player to see much of the front, side and back of the map while remaining concealed.
These situations are covered quite clearly in the TWL rules:
TWL RtCW General Rule set
§4.4 Exploits and Bugs
... 7. On some maps it is possible to see through walls, floors, and ceilings into other areas of the map. These clipping errors are not to be exploited during match competitions.
I apologize if this disrupts any team plans.

Thinking About A Hardware Upgrade? Now Is Your Chance…
There may not have been a better time within the past 5 years to upgrade than now. What’s driving this? In the bitter CPU war between AMD and Intel, it’s been AMD on top, delivering price and performance over anything that Intel was able to offer the market. That’s now changed.Read more... |

Is there any doubt that the nerds who obsess over their mousepads will be all over this.
Here's a nice little quote, MaxFPS technology frees up CPU cycles typically taken up by heavy network traffic by offloading the required processing onto the Killer NIC’s 400MHz network processor. UltimatePing technology lowers ping by optimizing data delivery to games faster while PingThrottle technology allows users to increase or decrease ping accordingly.". |

I've received numerous complaints about certain users' stock balances going to zero amounts. This happens when clans are being shuffled around in a preparation for a new league. And since nothing has been done since CAL-8 there had been a lot of preparations to be made. As a result of all this user portfolios have been reset to default amounts. For everyone. Read more... |

| Quakecon 2006 RTCW Banner BYOC |
| Posted on Thursday, June 29, 2006 at 08:50:04 PM | KeP |
|
| |
Now that Quakecon 2006 has been announced many people are scrambling to make their reservations and trip arrangements. But what about when you get to the BYOC? Standing in lines for hours among gamers that you don't know to be realeased into a large room full of 1800+ computers and people and possible confusion. Where do you set up your computer? Who do you sit next to? You don't want to be stuck in an area where you don't know anyone. Wouldn't you rather be sitting in an rtcw area or at least know where you could go to find some rtcw folks?
Last year at Quakecon there were several distinct camps of rtcw gamers and others scattered around not knowing where they might be able to find refuge.
This year I'll be attending again, and I want to help avoid that confusion.
So here is the deal. I'm going to be making up a large banner that will be hanging over an area to denote where rtcw folks can come and gather. It will be put in a lower traffic area so that the spots on the tables don't fill up so quickly with noobs that don't know what "class up" means.
What will the banner say? Well that's up for YOU to decide. Come up with your own design for the banner! Post the image you create on the thread here. The selected design will be printed on a 4 foot by 8 foot banner.
Remember that the banner will be fairly large so the image resolution must be high, and be visible from a distance in a large, possibly darkened room.
I hope to see some great images flow from the artistic members of the community! |

"Like other addicts, Bakker said, gamers are often trying to escape personal problems. When they play, their brains produce endorphins, giving them a high similar to that experienced by gamblers or drug addicts.Read more... |

| RTCW, private tunneling vs server? |
| Posted on Monday, June 26, 2006 at 03:35:22 AM | (7*up)LoXodonte |
|
| |
Read up on something called Hamachi. Could this be used in RTCW?
UDP is the fastest most "real time" standard IP protocol available. It literally just a packet being immediately sent to the recipient without any delay or other overhead at all. This is why, for example, VoIP (voice over IP) uses UDP.
One thing you definitely want to do, however, with UDP is to make certain that you have DIRECT links to your other gaming friends instead of needing to go through a third-party server.
If you don't know about "Hamachi" yet, you should definitely check it out. Gamers are LOVING it, since it works through their personal home NAT routers and lets them build very high performance networks to connect their machines as if they were all on a single LAN in one room -- but across the Net.
I did a Security Now! MP3 audio podcast talking all about Hamachi which you and your friends should definitely check out if you don't already know about Hamachi ...

EDITED.... Bob3 results *UPSET*
Map: mp_village
Affliction > Jolly rgr 3-1
wSw > Scourge 3-0
Exodus > Arise 3-0
teh birdz < united5 3-0
wow, who would have 'thunk' it ? United 5 got revenge Thursday night and won 3-0 on mp_village. Hold the phones!! more rtcw drama on the way. There could be some controversy because u5.alea did play in this match. TWL|Rob told wtv viewers that even if united 5 wins, the birds will still advance. Caffeine says, give them the win and let united5 move on to play exodus.
Next weeks matches:
Map: mp_assault
Affliction vs. wSw: TBA
Exodus vs. teh birdz / united 5: ?????

| Ties and the like |
| Posted on Wednesday, May 31, 2006 at 05:02:19 AM | a//shatter |
|
| |
So, we all (well, those of us with a clue) watched -a- and RGR last night.
Now, I will make no bones about it, I WANTED -a- to win only because donka was on the other team, but hey, that's me and my opinion.
That said, what do you all think of ties equalling a point per team? In a regular season match, I can understand (although not like it) it and go with it. But in a money tourney? Come on now. If two teams can stand each other up like that, then the round should be considered null and void? Right? Wrong? I'd like to hear what the community thinks. Ties are for Hockey and Football, not REAL sports like Baseball and Basketball. Never a tie, EVER. IMO. |

Major props go out to all TWL staff, working their asses off for this, SnipeTX, DynosauR, id Software, iTG, Laws c/o HiDef, WTV and all major gaming news source outlets for spreading the word.
Also to Hollywood for being so persistent about making this really happen and getting players back.Read more... |

| RETURN OF THE 5v5 OSP LADDER! |
| Posted on Monday, May 22, 2006 at 07:32:55 PM | SyndicateGromit|TWL |
|
| |
It’s time: time to smoke pork butt in the backyard; time to get your pasty white butts outside for some sun; and time FOR THE RETURN OF A 5v5 OSP LADDER AT TEAMWARFARE! 16 teams were dispatched from the first round of BOB3 and 8 more are soon to follow. We’re several weeks away from the start of OSP Season 12 and even when it starts we’re going to need a 2nd competitive outlet for organized play.

| Gamer Life: Klaudia 'ToxicGirl' Sroka |
| Posted on Sunday, May 21, 2006 at 09:25:53 PM | -doNka- |

GGL.com started a new series of interviews called "Gamers Life." One of those interviews features ToxicGirl, a member of our community most people knew, or should have known.
...you are fairly famous in the ET/RtCW gaming community. How does that work?
...it was ]NARF[ (one of the top US RtCW clans back then) that I was asked to join, it followed with QuakeCon 2003 in Dallas and me being one of the GameTV admins of the event. Now I am still camming for WolfTV from time to time and I'm being a part of ClanBase Crew.

Arsenal's starting goal keeper, Lehmann, has been red carded and kicked out the ongoing UEFA champions league championship (thanks to comrade Yogi for correcting that) between Arsenal and Barcelona. This leaves Arsenal down a man and gives the offensive Barcelona a great advantage.

NiteSwine|TWL v | | #
Don't know why so much attention is given to the team list for this tournament. It's nothing but an indicator. The only teams actually signed-up and approved for this tournament are the 12 that have submitted the captains form. Anyone can sign-up for the tournament; thus, the continual presence of asshats that join and have no association with RtCW. We'll keep removing them, but it's really pointless ... we'll simply add and remove teams once sign-ups are over so only the teams approved for play are on that list. And, at the moment, it looks like a fair number of teams with RtCW players are going to be removed ... fill in the form! Submit it! I'll post a follow-up with additional information.
Once again, here is the link: http://www.niteswine.net/twl_bob3_captain_form.html |

http://www.gamespot.com/e3/e3story.html?sid=6149812&pid=928340
I'm not sure everyone will be able to view that link so here's some of it:
"One big draw is sure to be the vehicle interaction. It's nothing new to this kind of game, but the handling of the individual vehicles looks fairly authentic. If you're in a four-wheel drive you'll be able to climb steeper inclines and make it over rough ground, whereas if you're on a smaller ATV, you'll be able to traverse places unreachable by the larger vehicles. One particularly entertaining ride looks to be the helicopter-jet combo--though, create too much havoc and you'll no doubt become a priority target for the enemy."

I noticed there were quite a few people on pubs and in #wolfpug that are still clanless. Many teams are also looking for more players. I'd like to make this post and the following thread available for everyone who is still looking. If you are looking for a clan, please leave comments. If your team is looking for more players, leave a comment with your IRC channel so people can contact you.
Also, reminder: BOB3 rosters can only have EIGHT players. If you have more than that, TWL will contact you. So instead of benching, join/make a team.
Thanks everyone and please stop thinking you're all going to join Affliction, their roster is full. |

| And The Braggin Rights Go To.... |
| Posted on Friday, May 5, 2006 at 04:03:12 AM | -doNka- |
|
| |
Today in a set of very intense games on mp_beach, 7+ season old Team Birds held a win against -1 season old u5 team coming straight from Enemy Territory.
The final score awards the win to The Birds 3-1-2, but who's got the bragging rights once the time was up? No doubt, U5 did an impressive job holding the new ground against the defending champions of RTCW. Once again caffeine got lucky having descent teammates backing his ass up after flaming et forums... |

| Enemy Territory: Quake Wars Interview #2 |
| Posted on Wednesday, May 3, 2006 at 04:10:53 PM | cK AnimeMan |
|
| |
I havent posted on here in years, but anyways, here is a little artcle that was posted yesterday on firing squad about ET:QW, it asks better questions about multi player aspects then the shackes interview from yesterday. Take a gander. FiringSquad: It's interesting that you chose to add vehicles in the game, since the original Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory was basically vehicle-free and came out as an excellent class-based infantry game. What were some of the risks vs. rewards you feel you took by adding vehicles to the Enemy Territory franchise? Was it a desire to satisfy player's demands that pushed the decision, or a genuine belief they'll make the game better?
Paul Wedgwood: We definitely believe our vehicles make ETQW better. Adding vehicles certainly has risks

| ETQW: Lead Designer Interview |
| Posted on Monday, May 1, 2006 at 02:22:39 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
" Both id Software and Splash Damage are fans of Battlefield (and both companies are known for running Battlefield game servers for their staff and friends), but ETQW should be thought of as a different kind of game with different development and gameplay goals.
ETQW is fundamentally built with the goal of creating gameplay where teamwork makes a significant difference in whether or not you complete objectives. The game is also unique in pitting asymmetrical forces against one another; It’s no longer just a choice between two similar but differently-named machine guns: the choice of whether to play Strogg or GDF is significant, the strategies are different, and the experience is different.
ETQW’s builds on Wolf ET’s successful team play approach that has won millions of fans the world over, but is set a century after those World War II battles."

| A Movie That Will Make You Piss Your Pants! |
| Posted on Monday, May 1, 2006 at 02:21:56 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
Most people love watching gaming movies. Most people here prefer watching RTCW related flix, and maybe ET and CS on occasion.
However, this time around I'd like to inform you that the best movie ever came out and it's dedicated solely to trickjumping. After this movie you will be sorry about 2 things:
1. You'll never make a movie that good
2. You've never been on a quake3 trickjumping team
Editing is simply amazing in all aspects and it includes the popular fly cam technology which makes FPS game look 10x better. Don't forget this game came out nearly 7 years ago :()
Enough talkin', original post here:

"The inaugural Austourney 6v6 RtCW Cup will take place on Sunday May 14, with round one matches scheduled to begin at 6pm AEST. Eight teams will compete in the knockout style competition, but there can only be one winner. A mix of ET players and old-school wolfers have signed up, including GameArena Season 3 RtCW champions team.dot and GameArena Season 3 Enemy Territory champions Modus Operandi. First round matches will be played on mp_base, while the semi-finals will take place on the chilly grounds of ice. The competition will conclude on the legendary and in many ways nostalgic map, mp_beach."
Add to that the entry of intel sponsored(and rtcw season 4 winners) Team Immunity And this cup looks to have as many if not more big name teams than aus wolf in its prime!

| FYI: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome |
| Posted on Wednesday, April 26, 2006 at 09:05:10 PM | -doNka- |
|
| |
This is not related specifically to RTCW, but to PC gaming in general. In his article over at GGL.com, Mahmood explains his research on Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The disease can affect anyone who spends hours behind PC wiggling a mouse left and right.
Any seasoned Quake player will immediately see the problem with deviation. The circle-strafe jump, the basis for all skilled movement in Quake, is accomplished primarily through fast radial and ulnar deviation. These motions are repeated fifty to hundreds of times per game depending on the player. Perform these motions for 15 to 20 hours a week, for five years, and you have the dictionary definition of “repetitive stress injury.” That’s not even taking into account standard aiming and flick shots.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein has been deemed one of, if not the, greatest team based game ever made. We've seen 12 seasons of great teams come, and go. About a month ago, forum regular and RTCW faithful Wippuh suggested that we have a "draft" to rejuvinate the RTCW community, and hopefully bring some gamers back to the game that we all love.

Well, multitask’s guid showed up on the MBL and instantly triggered many people’s attention. IP, however, was not linked directly to multitask, or no where near him. It’s pointing somewhere in Canada(surprise). Could multitask give out/lose his cekey to someone? Maybe. Could he hack simply of boredom? Possibly.Read more... |

Redo Pug League ?

| New Server Coming Soon Friends |
| Posted on Sunday, April 9, 2006 at 01:42:45 AM | gisele |
|
| |
A new OSP server is currently in the works. The server is located in Dallas, TX. Before you bitch and moan, remember it is a pub and all you get for having the best ratio in a pub is the pub all-star award. So screw your 48 ping, just play.
The current map rotation will be Assault (1-round), Base, Beach, Ice, Frostbite, Chateau, Tundra Rush (1-round), Village, Sub.
Big shout-out to Skeeve|TWL for hooking this up, if you see him around be like "OMG SKEEVE I LOVE YOU, THANKS FOR THE SERVER!!111"
IP + More details in a few days when the server is up. It's called "The Lumber Yard OSP"
I need some feedback about bans. Do you think hackers should be banned right away or give them another chance? |

Inspired by Chuck Norris facts :()
Some newb tried to aimbot Remedy. He shot himself in the face.
Remedy doesn't just shoot ppl, he shoots their souls.
Nobody yet could count 4th bullet while dueling remedy.
Once remedy had too many headshots. OSP had to do a bell curve to the point when everyone was left with zero headshots.
As frogs don't see non-moving objects, remedy doesn't see non-helmeted objects.
If you defend base against remedy, you better figure out a way to blow your own radars.
Remedy doesn't cornercamp grave stones. Grave stones cornercamp remedy.
There are no corners while playing against remedy. There're places where walls end.
Aquaman sleeps in water. Remedy sleeps in inner compound.
Just like loch ness monster never leaves the lake, remedy does not leave inner compound.
Whoever thought remedy would not get any headshots on empty server... was wrong.
Every person who accused remedy of hacking is a hacker who couldnt outgun remedy.
Bullet better get a headshot when it's fired by remedy.

Seems I remember a few people round here have chipped or softmoded Xbox's. Just finished up tweaking a custom skin this week for unleashX. If anybody wants it go ahead and pm me on irc and I'll hook ya up. Contains a hidden RTCW movie teaser :p. Also, if you're wanting to softmod your xbox and need a bit of help, I could help ya out their too. You don't even need a chip these days, just a $10 used "action replay" or a friend with one. You can even dump in a larger hdd via softmod now. :) Once you're modded you can play games online without the xblive service, stream internet music w/visuals like winamp, stream videos/music/pictures from your pc, play burned xbox games (RTCW tides of war!), play homebrew games, play nes, snes, mame...etc etc etc.
I don't endorse all of the above tho...tbh.

It's been a shitty week for me so far, but at the end it just couldn't stop getting shittier. A buddy of mine, who likes to bash anything that isn't CSS linked me to a 4 days old article on GameSpot.com... so much to say, just read it yourself:
MESQUITE, Texas - Mar. 27, 2006 - Return to Castle Wolfenstein 2, the latest joint project of id Software and Raven Software promises to combine amazing Doom 3 technology and World War II-theme enhanced by supernatural resistance of the Third Reich. The singe player element of Return to Castle Wolfenstein 2, currently in development by Raven Software and executive produced by id SoftwareTM and Gray Matter Interactive, offers players an outstanding First Person Shooter quest on Xbox 360 and PS2 platforms.
"It just doesn’t get any better than the intense single-player and cooperative multiplayer action in Return to Castle Wolfenstein 2" said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. To the question about multiplayer mode Todd Hollenshead replied, "Id Software and Nerve Software had to part their ways due to inability of Nerve Software to align their goals with the scope of the project. As a result, the multiplayer side of the game will only feature cooperative multiplayer with maximum of four players."
Return to Castle Wolfenstein 2 is developed by Raven Software and is executive produced by id Software. The Xbox 360 game is a sequel to the award winning PC title, Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War, originally developed by Gray Matter Interactive studios and Nerve Software.
Some of the things are simply obvious, this isn' the first time you should be screaming that Id Software went cold heart commercial. They did it with Doom3, Quake4, and now... there isn't even a multiplayer competition mode!! Less obvious, or rather ambiguous message, or lack thereof, is that PC isn't even mentioned as a platform. Well, console titles bring big bucks nowadays with platforms like Xbox 360, PS2, and upcoming PS3. Full size multiplayer isn't as popular on consoles as it is on PCs. So if you guys wanna play some RTCW2 co-op, you might wanna trade your new video card for an xbox, and co0l wireless controls.
GG kids, been fun.

Just found this on PlanetQuake4; thought it was interesting...figured you guys might as well.
id Software's History of Community Support
by RogeR
With the recent release of Quake4, id Software has come under fire by the community for releasing a game that contained a problem ridden multiplayer component. Only a month or so after the game was released, unhappy members of the Quake community wrote articles announcing death of Quake4.Read more... |

The Pick Up Games will be informal matches. The format will be relatively what Wippuh suggested. Sign up on this thread to play, and Captains will be picked next week. Those captains will then pick their teams. Pick order will be determined by a random order mechanism. Each Captain's pick selections will be saved (and posted) so that teams can select stand-ins in case a player isn't available for the match. Read more... |

We're finally to the finals. Given the trials and tribulations of this season, I'm definately looking forward to this one!
For the home team, we have Teh Birdz, who took down Syndicate Soldiers 3-1 on Ice to get here. Some amazing shooting going on, as well as some fine teamwork. Well done, Birdz. Props to caffeine for...something...I'm sure he did something well in the match. ;)
The visiting team is Jolly RGR.Read more... |

| syndicate soldiers clearly frightened of public humiliation |

9:30 PM EST, Syndicate Soldiers point out to vixen that they will not be allowing shoutcasting in the twl rtcw semi final match this evening. though twl rules state "In the event a server is not specified by TWL RtCW Administration, any team participating in either a division final or league final match must make available spectator slots for shoutcasting providers, including iTG, TsN and WTV." - however TWL does not actually enforce this rule. this would be the third matchup between the two teams this season and the public seemed interested, we had 12 listeners.
unfortunately, SS got cold feet and backed out after confirming shoutcasting at 9 PM EST. we're attempting to move over to Tribal Valor and Jolly RGR at this time. |

STA-RTCW is actively searching for teams to participate in a small, yet competitive RTCW Shrub league!
The leagues matches would be held on Tuesday nights, and more details will be released pending interest in such a league is out there. Currently we have three teams that have given us their approval and are willing to participate in such a league.
STA-RTCW currently wants three more teams before we will move on opening the league for sign-ups and begin actual league play. We believe this is an important effort to keep competitive RTCW around in any form, as we wait for RTCW2’s release.
If your team is interested, please contact Gotcha or Virus047 on IRC or visit the following thread on the STA-RTCW Forums!
STA-RTCW Shrub Interest Thread: Click Here!
Thank you! GL HF!

| [N4L] Shrub Pub Rotation is up and running. |
| Posted on Tuesday, February 7, 2006 at 07:41:36 PM | DynoSauR |
|
| |
In an effort to give the competitive Shrub players a place to play I have got up a Shrub server with rotation. It has most of the TWL comp settings but, I did update to the newest version of Shrub so that there would be full stats in the console and also hitsounds among a few other minor differences. I think the main reason TWL does not use the newer version is because of the ability to do the "shrub jump" with the newer version. At any rate, the server is located in Dallas and it has almost the same map rotation as Hell's Gate minus mp_rocket which I put mp_beach2e in it's place. Once again this server was graciously provided by NGWaves of www.f3dz.com. I am not going to be strict about names on this server since a lot of shrubbers out there have never competed but, I will continue to try to keep the hackers off. If you have any suggestions or questions about the servers then feel free to drop by www.wolfplayer.us and post at the forums.

| A Lot More Details On ET:QW |
| Posted on Monday, January 23, 2006 at 12:14:51 AM | -doNka- |
|

ComputerAndVideogames.com conducted an interview with a lead designer at Splash Damage - Paul Wedgwood. Some new info can be found in this 4-page interview + screenshots.
Wolfenstein had about 11,000 QA hours at Activision to balance the game and make it work. With Quake Wars we're probably going to have to use the same kind of heuristic evaluation method...
There're also some insights on vehicles, XP, and other features.

Tonight's the night! Season 11 of TWL fires up and it's time for some early season predictions! With the crack staff of trained monkies here at planet-rtcw.com, we went far and wide to gather some thoughts on the upcoming season. The only thing that seemingly everyone could agree on was that no one would approach the faggotry of teh birdz this season. Not much of a surprise there! Read more... |
