    Gears of War Tournament for PC Should Be Execution!!! Not Warzone!!!

    Execution requires more teamwork, tactics, control of the map and weapons. Execution is more popular and more fun to play. Please can we change this for the better of the competitors?

     

    Map suggestions:

    war machine, raven down, courtyard, fuel depot, and gridlock.

     

    my 2 cents. thanks for listening

    Thanks for your input markyshizzle.

    I have heard similar feedback from other players as well.

    I am going to forward the suggestion to everyone else involved so that we can see about getting the format changed to Execution.

    I didn't play the 360 version like some of my teammates but after watching alot of demos execution with bleedout duration at 30 seconds seems like the way to go it's what they did at most of the mlg tournaments. Alot of people online for the pc version and 360 version play bleed out duration 5 seconds but I believe with 30 second bleed out duration it adds a lot to the game play you really need to work with your team/partners on a strategy to keep each other up and keep them away from executing you. I'll have some other pros from the 360 that made the switch to pc make a post.

    With warzone yea you get just one chance cause one your downed if your teammate doesn't get you up your going to bleed out or get shot but with that being the format it's going to be a huge camp fest everyones going to run to a single position and wait for someone to make a move. Unlike in execution just from what I've seen theres alot more strategy and better game play which provides better spectator value. Which hopefully if venues/other upcoming tournaments see this they will decide to pick it up as well.

    (THIS IS A POST FROM  MY FRIEND GUNNER WHO WASNT ABLE TO POST)

    After playing both Warzone and Execution, Execution would be the better choice. It makes teams work together and forces players to move and not just camp. Matches move much quicker and have more action in them. Look at it this way. Warzone is like chess. When you corner an opponent, that’s game. People can just pull off BS rushes and get lucky. In Execution, they have to move together and control power weapons. It just makes the game more dynamic.

    Since it's only 2v2 I dont really care much about the warzone/execution thing but I think first to 3, doesnt give the opposing team enough time to counter-strat make a comeback first to 5 should be the last at most maybe first to 10 I think first to 5 would make for better gameplay/spectator value. I'll let others post what they think.

    The following changes have been approved:

    1) Replace the map Canals (which is a bit buggy), with the map Clocktower.

    2) Switch the mode from Warzone to Execution, which is extremely similar but will result in more tactical play and less tied matches.

    3) Add ‘Land Sliding’ to the list of exploits so that it is clearly not allowed.

    4) Arrange so that teams take turns hosting so that the connections are evened out.

     

    The rules will be updated on the mini-site very shortly - www.iGames.org/GoW

    Re: When Do We Get Our Money

    From personal experience it usually takes iGames around 3 weeks to mail out prizes from events. Given the holidays I would expect it would take a little bit longer.


     

    If you have any questions please email wayne@igames.org although he is on vacation till after the first.

    Re: When Do We Get Our Money

    Hey Shroom and Dazed,

    I replied to your messages. The checks are in the mail.

    It takes some time to gather all the prize forms, verify addresses, print checks, sign checks, and mail checks, especially over the holidays.

    Thanks for your understanding.
