Firstly big ups to 667th for taking out S1 in unexpected but fine fashion.

The ladder is locked for 2 weeks while we refine and review a few things.
This thread will be your chance to have your say for S2.

Suggestions of changes to rules, gameplay etc etc?

Dont allow car swapping. I thought I saw a tooltip on the loading screen that swapping cars was not on

Don't changes rules half way through a season and not announce it

Car swapping is bad, removes the skill involved in using the Nos

What ideath said could be bad, As soon as you start the race the Opposition can just pummel you from the start and they can just tail gate you from the start hammering your behind.

Why not just get rid of all the 64 size maps cause there shit?

Put in 2 16 player size Tracks for each map?

Or just Create some more maps?

Some of the 64's are ok but if you dont like only being able to shoot for half the race dont submit those maps. IDeaths point about guns on lap one has been thought about for probably 2 years and about 8 tournaments ive been involved in ans Yellow is right with cars clustered at the start it can ruin an entire race in the first 20 seconds. Gun rules will most likely remain.

Yeah more shorter tracks would be kool but you have to name them 32, 64 etc otherwise the bf engine freaks out. For around 4-6 hours per track untested, i'll see how much spare time i have.

Car swapping was being used from week 1 i rekon i saw it so that rule has never changed. I think S2 will see swapping illegal, but we want more than a couple in favour of it.

Car swapping has always been allowed but i'm definately in favour of outlawing it.

Also just to chuck an idea out there and see what people think, we could scrap the 64 size maps and make the aim of the race to get the fastest lap time rather than fastest overall time. If you make a single tiny mistake or cop a bit of bad luck it wouldn't be game over like it currently pretty much is.

Well, that could be something looking into, by that i mean why not have people try to get the Fastest lap time without doing Cuts but customise some maps to make them actaully hard?

or would that be too difficult to do?

Guns from start of the race +1

Also, if you are repairing fully pull over the the side of the track, and after you have finished repairing, you have to start moving straight away.

car swapping should be removed, other wise you can nos for a whole lap swap and do it again

I like the time trial idea tbh. It leaves the match more open, because it wont be over if you make one tiny mistake. Currently its pretty much over by the first lap; whoever has the lead is impossible to catch because they just boost when you boost, or so i've found

i dislike the idea of time trial
its fine as is, but the 64 player maps do ruin it.
2 laps, cant shoot for 1.. as soon as one car gets ahead, gg.

I suggest making it 4v4 or 6v6...

I also dislike the idea for timetrial.. It is racing.. in the real world if u crash ur car on the first corner ur out of the race as it is usually broken. If u want add the sprint maps where u only get one chance to the end..

There is nothing wrong with the 64 player maps they dont wreck the game.

guns on the first lap disabled are good too.. for those that dont understand there is more ways then one to take out the opposition. What about the krubra dam map.. its one of the best because it comes down to the driver and how good they can use the jeep. (not its guns)

Not allowing car swaping would be ok, although there are propably more tracks where it costs u more time to swap a car then use half nos each lap.. Also i think if u swap more then 2 cars it swaps u to the zombe and takes u out of the race. Just remember to use the rulz to your advantage

maybe make a rule so that both teams have to confirm score after the race, weather they agree on the score or not, but it will give both teams a fair chance to dispute, instead of one of the teams not saying anything and waiting till nearly 11pm to dispute. Leaving the other side at a disadvantage.

Unlimited nos.. ( that would be crazy ) maybe on the big 64 player tracks.

I agree with Ludendorff, where he says once finished repairing u have to start racing straight away, instead of waiting to be lapped and then nos and shoot the race leader etc.

I dont realy remember any one else having a problem during the season with the rulz not being inforced when they should have, or do i remember anyone else having a problem with the disputes being not fairly reviewed.
