Halo 2 Online Tournament

[Bailey]

I was thinking of holding a Halo 2 tournament between smashboard members on X-Box live. Would anyone be interested in this???

"If you do not own an Xbox/Xbox 360, Halo 2 and a gold membership for Xbox Live, please do not post because you'll just waste our time".

 

[Foxman15]

No. lol. I wish I had a 360 so I could play Xbox live, but I'm too cheap to buy one cause its been out for like 2 1/2 years.

 

[Volrec]

Way increase your post count, Foxman.

I would be interested in this. If you need any help in doing this, please do not hesistate to ask me.
And you should add on your post: "If you do not own an Xbox/Xbox 360, Halo 2 and a gold membership for Xbox Live, please do not post because you'll just waste our time".

Btw Foxman15, we don't care. Your post is as useful as me walking into my local Walmart and attempting to purchase something and then saying to the cashier "I would buy this, but I'm too cheap" and then leaving the store without buying anything.

 

[D.B]

I'd be interested to join in on this. Are we going to do teams and other modes aswell?
Also F8AL, whats your gamertag? I'd like to play with you

 

[Lanowen]

lol
and did I meantion: lol?

Rules? thanks.

 

[0m3n5150]

i dont know what the difference is between gold and not, but if reg xbox live is ok then im in.
my GT is either:
0m3n5150
or
Om3n5150

i dont remember if its a zero or "O"

Well, once more people are interested and wish to participate in this, then we can go into more details (Maps, Gametypes, etc.). It would be a waste of time if we figured out everything and a hardly anyone wanted to do this. It's like us setting up a smash tournament and only 3 people came. If we do get enough people to do this, I would like to have doubles and team slayer. Singles would take too long unless you picked a small map. Team Slayer would be awesome too.

And my Gamertag is: Tchu (as you can see my gamercard in my signature).
You can add me whenever you wish.

 

[th0rn]

Way increase your post count, Foxman.

Way to increase your post count, Volrec.

lol anyway, I'm interesting in joining. But rules and maybe a prize would be nice. ;P

 

[D.B]

Lol a prize? It's an online tournament unless someone feels free to send the prize? Anyways if we're doing slayer lanowen and myself might need one or 2 more people if anyones interested? Also could we bring guests that don't have Live or xbox?

P.S We should make our own thread about halo 2 here just so we can all talk about it? Thoughts?

 

[Cashed]

There's a Halo 2 thread somewhere. Search for it, don't make an entirely new one.

We're not sure yet if a prize(s) will be awarded to the winner. Perhaps me and Bailey can team together in team slayer. As I said before, it's too early to release alot of details. And I do not see anything wrong with bringing guests on Xbox Live.

 

[D.B]

I basically want an FFA and a 4 Vs 4. This is between Smashers who have Smashboards accounts. I just need people to vote on the game type for TS 4 Vs 4.

 

[D.B]

I'm good with those rules, I also vote we do mostly team slayer seeing as its the best mode, i guess FFA and I guess double team.

 

[th0rn]

MLG rules... me like

 

[F8AL]

Yeah sounds good. :D
How will the maps be picked through? Random? Will you ban certain maps or make them all legal? Will every team get to pick their map?

 

[0m3n5150]

ok so could you all sum up this thing. its 2v2 teams right? dates? anything else? sorry im so **** lazy

 

[Bailey]

Well the main maps

Midship
Warlock
Lockout

Maybe:
Backwash
Colossus
Beaver Creek

 

[0m3n5150]

desolation

no backwash xD

 

[F8AL]

Well the main maps

Midship
Warlock
Lockout

Maybe:
Backwash
Colossus
Beaver Creek

How about Santuary as well? I find Warlock too dark to see anything. Desolation would be awesome as well.

desolation

no backwash xD

^Agreed. I didn't think that anyone liked playing on Backwash. And Om3n, it's gonna be team slayer (4v4) and I think doubles and FFA.

 

[D.B]

Who else votes for zanzibar to be in for team slayer? It's got space for vehicles, hiding, not too big and theres like a million super jumps xD

 

[F8AL]

Hey guys I got bad news. My gold membership for Xbox Live ran out a few days ago and I was gonna buy a year of gold again but my parents won't let me because school is starting soon and it's my final year (Grade 12, then it's college) and they say they don't want me being distracting/tempeted by having the ability to play online with other people. They said they don't care if I get live during the summer because it's my time to relax. So yeah ppl, I won't be getting live again till next year's summer. After that it's college and I doubt I'll have enough time to play 360. So yeah I'm sorry that I won't be able to participate in this tournament. I was really looking towards to teaming with D.B. and the rest of his team. Sorry D.B.

Of couse, I can still post the results here if you guys need any help in that because I'm sure you guys will be too busy to post them when you're playing.

Example:

Match #1
[Team 1] V.S. [Team 2]
Map: Lockout
Winner: Team 1 (50-38)

Match #2
[Team 2] V.S. [Team 3]
Map: Beaver Creek
Winner: Team 3 (50-38)

And so on...so yeah I won't be able to play with you guys, if you need any help just ask me.

 

[D.B]

Oh man sorry to hear that I was looking towards teaming with you. Well I guess now we need a fourth person again. Anyways if you need help with this tournament I'd be happy to help aswell

 

[Bailey]

NO WAY DESOLATION OR TOMBSTONE. TOMBSTONE is all host BR. Desolation is just homo.

 

[0m3n5150]

pfft desolation owns. im just putting out there that im up for joining a team. im not a n00b, but im not really good either. before they reset the ranks i was a 17 so thats about where i am.

[F8AL]

I'm willing to join, my gamertag is Buckmoth.. And for the maps, I would suggest keeping medium-large maps like Zanzibar out unless it's skirmish. Also, I say no to Warlock. That map is terrible. Beaver Creek is fine w/o default weapons.

suggestionz
Lockout
Midship
Sanctuary
Turf
Beaver Creek (mlg only)

I'm not that great at Halo 2 anymore but I'll definitely give it a shot.
Also, I believe there should be a magnum as secondary to the BR.

Well I'd suggest these levels:

Lockout
Midship
Santuary
Desolation
Beaver Creek

You should get everyone to vote to see which levels they want to be available.

 

[D.B]

Buckmoth you're talking about slayer pro (which I love to play) and I'd like if we did that + team slayer (slayer pro+team slayer= team slayer pro) xD
Also we should follow mlg rules whether we like them or not cause we will never agree on stages and rules.
Off topic today I bought 360 with a 13 month live

 

[0m3n5150]

i have xbox live till feb... then im just gunna switch to xbconnect.
so, how many levels do we want? i think 6 is a good number... so you should open up a poll with all the levels, and allow 6 votes.
just an idea...
=P

 

[Foxman15]

"Way to increase your post count, Volrec."

Yeah, practice what you preach *******. Oh, and I could't care less about my post count. I've been a member for 8 months and have 145 or so. There's people who have been members for less than 2 and have like 1600. Now that's what I call bull****.

I got us another player, he's having trouble with Smashboards but his gamertag is xShdwRptr16x

I'm wondering, will this end in a team of 2 or 4 or end with a 1v1? I hate 1v1 finals and would much rather see a double 1st. I think if it'll be 1v1 at the end I'll just forfeit there. It's just too boring 1v1, no matter what map you pick.

Well we don't know how its ending but as for FFA we can do whoever gets first...wins no need for 1vs1 or anything, and teams will be I uess 4 player teams just like team slayer

 

[th0rn]

I think I finally got my team in check for this tourney.

 

[0m3n5150]

i need a team...
help me? lol
GT is Om3n5150

 

[D.B]

Well we me lanowen and my friend might need a 4th person?

 

[0m3n5150]

if you do, then id be happy to play w/ you guys. =P

Why is everything MLG? So you can see who's better at BXR? Halo's lost its way.

How about a TS Snipers match? Oh wait, by Halo 2 standards, that'd turn into a sweep snipe battle. Halo 3 needs to hurry, just 29 more days. Count me in, by the way. When is this going to take place exactly? Someone adequately informed please PM me.

Everything is MLG because it would take a miracle for all of us to agree so MLG is neutral. Sweep sniping aswell as bxr takes skill to do, even more to use. As much as I'd love to have a TS match I doubt anyone else would? Also we don't know when it's going to happen yet.

 

[Cashed]

Haha, BXR taking skill. "i no how 2 do a glitch lol u die"
