Gamers React Negatively To 1.6 Patch

Posted June 8 2008 By: Yourcatch22 | Counter-Strike | Comments [ 1 ]

Over the past week, many gamers have publicly spoken out against the recent Counter-Strike 1.6 update and the effects it has had on the competitive gaming world. The patch, which aimed to fix silent crouch hopping (aka Russian Walking Exploit in the release), has resulted in giving a jumping sound to any in-game jump movement. While this may seem like a minor change, in the world of competitive gaming, the effects have forced many players to drastically alter their game play. Even despite that many players had considered silent crouch hopping a bug that needed to be fixed, the unintended results of the patch have led many to demand a rollback patch from Valve to remedy the situation.

GotFrag recently took the opportunity to sit down with several professional players and managers to get their reactions to the update. Here's a snippet below from Alex Garfield, Team EG Owner/Manager, and for more player reactions, checkout the Complete Article Here.

"Alex Garfield
Owner/Manager Team EG


"I think that any potential positives that have come via fixing the exploit (if you're even of the opinion that it needed to be fixed in the first place) have been easily outweighed by the bugginess that came along with the "fix." We now have movement sounds being made and heard in situations that are completely absurd from a competitive standpoint."

CEVO Tournament Interview

Posted June 8 2008 By: Yourcatch22 | General Esports | Post a comment

After a very disappointing CEVO Alienware tournament, including allegations of poor tournament management and unpaid prize money, GotFrag sat down with Moe Assad, a gamer at the tournament, to discuss what went wrong. While no official word has come from CEVO or Igames, the interview gives some interesting insight into what happened at the event. You can checkout a snippet below, or checkout the Full Interview Here.

"Its public information that you feel quite a bit went wrong with the CEVO Alienware tournament, could you please explain specifically what happened?

I'm going to be plain and honest about CEVO and Alienware. I believe that iGames (the people who ran the tournament) and mainly Ferguson - the only admin for the whole tournament - just had no idea what they were doing. That's right, over 15k in prize money with only one admin. There are so many details I can go into about how flawed the rules were, mainly because the rules were all meant for 1.6 and as anyone knows 1.6 and source are in many ways different.

What i don't understand is how Alienware would put this much money up for grabs in an online tournament, maybe they thought that CEVO, being the respected league it is, would be willing to help run it smoothly, but i can tell you first hand that CEVO did absolutely nothing to help the tournament. Celone himself told me "we cant do anything" about any rules or dispute, and that it was all up to the iGames guy who had no clue and openly admitted to having no clue about how to run the tourney."

Clan Gaming and Its Benefits

Posted June 8 2008 By: Illusion | Site News | Post a comment

Found this nice article about Clan gaming over at Informativepost, check it out below:

"Clan gaming in recent years has grown from an underground form of gaming to a force that can’t be ignored. All you have to do is turn on a video game like Gears of War 2, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Call of Duty: World at War, Halo 3, or many other games and you will see a clan tag represented in many, if not all of your matches.

There are many reasons why people join a clan. Some look for heavier, stronger competition. Others look for a feeling of comradery and brotherhood that simply can’t be found through casual gaming. When organized and ran correctly, clan gaming has many things to offer that will raise your level of enjoyment while playing.

As Founder of The Outlaw Army, I have devoted my time and my staff’s time to creating a clan that is focused on maturity, as well as being a place for people to come and enjoy playing a game that they already have a passion for with other people who share that passion. We play nightly, and this ensures that there is always someone online to game with that I know and enjoy being around.

Many of the members in my clan verbally tell me on a regular basis that they enjoy a structured gaming atmosphere where they know cheating, glitching, trash talking, etc. will be at a minimum and/or not allowed at all and they can game without dealing with the normal headaches and stressful situations that come with casually gaming. If you have played a game online, then you know how aggravating and stressful it can be to join a room and have someone screaming or singing into their headset, or talking trash until it makes you sick. These actions can and will get you removed from our clan, and this is a very big selling point for most of my members.

The area of clan gaming that we have yet to explore heavily is Major League Gaming (MLG). This is an organization that holds tournaments for cash and prizes that can be won by playing the games that you already love with a group. There are many people that have been able to become professional gamers and earn a decent living from competing in tournaments and contests. This is something that is still fairly young, but gaining momentum quickly. It is attracting more and more gamers all the time. There are clans that recruit simply for competition like this and others.

People who have never given clan gaming a try should look into it. There are many different ways to find clans. Search Engines, In-Game Scouting, and many more methods exist to find a clan that has the same morals and same level of intensity that you enjoy when playing your game.

I would suggest that everyone give it a try. It can add an extension to your gaming life that can enhance your experience beyond your wildest dreams."
