What??? Things are getting updated around here???
|
|
|
|
Yes, things have and will get updated around here. I will have more time to spend on the website in the very near future.
I have updated the website to the latest version. So this should fix a lot of problems on the admin side. Which I'm very happy for.
I have added a youtube gallery. You can submit your own youtube videos for everybody to enjoy. When submitting videos just use the youtube code. (i.e. OtfMIiinJso )

List of changes, leagues, and updates
|
|
|
|
Seeing as no one here does news postings, I figured... Why not I? Anyways, the last update was something like two months ago. so I figured I'd make a compiled list of our changes (That I can think of off hand)
- First and most obvious is a new public map. This is our official map, and unless minor tweaking is done, it's going to stay like this. It features a thinner, but longer playing area, and less demanding scout tunnels. This allows both bases to be defended easier, at the same time, allows offencive deps to pin people in their own base.
- Second, and the most controversial of changes is the dep attaching capability. For the last 2-3 weeks deps (with no bounty requirements) can attach to other deps, allowing a team of deps to near take over an entire base. This encourages teamwork, and the more pro-active use of anti-warp.
- Third, is the bot core. Though this has been up for quite awhile, our new bot is a hyrbid core. It's custom coded for MGCTF's gameplay, it now features a 30 minute time game, to a maximum of 10 goals. If a winning condition is not met at the end of 30 minutes, a 15 minute overtime will start. Included with this bot is a new jackpot system available using the command !jackpot in the public chat, it also sports a new ranking system (1-5 are posted at the end of the match) as well as some award information. Higher ranks get ranking bonus points. aswell.
- Fourth, 3 new subgames have been introduced in to public, they are: the Coin system (used !coin heads/tails:wager) for a random heads or tails chance of doubling your points, the slots system (used !slots) which takes 100 points from your username, and attempts to win the jackpot, and the !guess system (used by pming metalpub !guess 1-1000) and gives you a chance of being closest to the selected random number.
- Fifth, is our leagues. Currently the MGDBL is rounding the playoff corner, with the Metal Gear Squad Dueling League starting up shortly after. More info to follow from the new league coordinator "Stop"
- Sixth, we welcome some of our new staff members and changes to our current team. snowtrooper xv and Ya\/\/n have just recently joined us. Combine has been promoted to the moderator position, (Wtach out, he's a hosting addict to hitting 32 last week O.O) and Stop has just been promoted to a league coordinator position, he's now incharge of all league staff, the changes involved with the league, and making sure the day to day operations go smoothly.
- Last, We have a new forum group labeled "VIP". This new group gives advanced knowledge of upcoming metalgear changes, and the ability to vote on changes that even the public doesn't get to touch. :)
Thank you all for reading,

There is a new map in the public arena. This map will stay up for 24-48 hours for TESTING.
This is NOT the new pub map, but will help us in our process for selecting a new pub map.

Sorry about that small downtime for the last 3 hours or so. TT was doing server updates for the webhosting, and managed to bunch up our site, and a few others being hosted on the server. We're back up an running 100% again. Sorry if this has caused any loss of information you were working on. :(

Welcome

After well over a year, we've finally got a site up. :) Freakmonger and myself have been working on getting a site set up for a while now after previous attempts seemed to have just been put on the back burner. We're still getting things all situated, so just bare with us if something doesn't seem right. If you don't like it, tough. It's better than the lack of site we've had for the past 14+ months. :P
Anyone is able to register on this site, but you aren't required to at all. Right now, about the only reason you have to register is for access to the shoutbox, and to comment on news. So it's up to you. We hope you enjoy the site. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us.
Thanks,
freakmonger & Slipped
NOTE: You can NOT login using your forum username and password. Sorry!:( We worked on this for hours upon hours trying to get it to work, but we came up short. Maybe someday we will have them integrated where you'll have the name username and password for each. Until then, either register on both, or just register on the forum. Thanks.
