As it says its a 6v6 league that will be having their 3rd season start up sometime next year and I was wondering if anyone was interested in playing in it? If you are just reply here and we can see how many we have.

DoD:S comp team... inb4 debate

 

[Lungbuster]

If im not mistaken this has been brought up a time or two, and as YSD says we have a team and we are a part of TCN. With the member that led the competitive team and got the ball rolling stepping down, and our recruiting numbers taking a beating lately. The standing on eGO DoD:S comp team is number 2 behind the recruiting drives. So if you would like to get the comp team back up and running and have a chance to try out for it, looks like we need to get our recruiting numbers up and stable....dont quote me on this, just something i heard through the grapevine.

do we have enough players of the standard needed? probably not, i agree with those that say recruit more first, the only problem with this is, if we dont really up the number of recruits we could be looking at never returning to league play.

in my honest opinion, we should start having 12 mans as an event maybe? its refreshing not getting killed by random assualt headshots every 2 seconds, and who knows, maybe some of you noobs could get good enough for this stuff .

 

[Sumac]

I was doing 12 mans in the evenings within eGO for a few weeks, but people started to lose interest and get frustrated. Like Brain said and Lung before him, we need recruits, a larger pool to take competitive players from and to increase server numbers to attract even more. I wish I could say it's a quality over quantity thing, but in eGO it never really has been. It's purely a numbers game. The more people we have, the more money we get, and the more servers we can host.

 

[tucknrole]

To add to that, it depends on what quality you're looking for. The nice thing about eGO is that, yes, we may not have the best players in the world (point your fingers at me), but eGO recruits quality PEOPLE, and I would rather have an army of quality people than a squad of good players. Recruiting needs to be priority #1 for now, as everyone else has already said. Who knows, maybe we'll be back in league play, or scrimming 6v6s by the first of the year.

 

[Sumac]

Also, as a complete side note, if you have a steady job and make a little money, consider donating $5/month to eGO. None of these servers we enjoy are free, just think of how much time you spend in eGO servers, now compare that to what it would cost if you were to go to the movies for that period of time. $5 a month even for someone mowing lawns is most likely 30 minutes of work at most, for an entire month of gaming. Just something to consider.

eGO will not be creating teams for any leagues until our recruiting numbers are back where they should be.

So, if you want to play league on an eGO team, get recruiting.

I'll join this 6v6, It's how I started in the 1st place..much fun. hope #'s come back to normal..

I believe the sad truth is that this is an old game and numbers if anything are going to drop:crying:. Why no try an keep the great players around and do something they seem interested in (competitive gaming).Just my thoughts, maybe its not worth having six or seven servers we expect to be full and focus on just a few. But like Sumac said its quantity over quality sadly.

But like Sumac said its quantity over quality sadly.

I think you misinterpreted what I was stating or maybe I didn't form cohesive thoughts when I responded earlier.

I wish it could be quality over quantity and for a while I thought that would be an answer to some of our problems, but in reality that's just not the case. It has to be quantity to keep things running, we just have to find the quality players within our massive sweeps.

If we make eGO more selective by necessity we would be forced to reduce the number of servers we provide for both members and the public. That is unless the 'quality' members were donating 10 times more than the current eGO population. Like I said I used to think many of our issues stemmed from the 'quantity' issue, but we probably would end up losing eGO if we began restricting members with a screening process. In DoD:S especially we need almost every warm body we can get. We all know the player base isn't expanding so we need to cast a wide net to get retreads, pubbers on our servers, pubbers on the competition's servers and anyone we can convert from that silly OP:X division. Just kidding Yeti

I'm a little confused, we dont have 6 quality players?

 

[Blue Stealth]

I'm a little confused, we dont have 6 quality players?

Sure we do. We are going to focus on recruiting before we focus on competitive teams again. I'm rebooting the recruiting program here in two weeks after I finish my exams.

[Lungbuster]

No its not that at all...what we are trying to do is put recruiting at the forefront of this division, this comes with keeping the servers populated. We have quality players, we are just trying to get more so that we can keep our servers and the DoD:S division alive and well.

*edit*
Blue stole my thunder...

 

[Madvillain]

I'd be down for a competition of any sort..

Since I'm down for some legit pwnage that I will surely dish out.


holla holla

Blue forgot the "you need more than 6 people for these things though" part. Even when you have twice that number it's hard having enough people on a consistent basis.

there in lies an issue. I have spoken to quite a few pubs that arent interested in joining as we dont have a competition team.. the fun of the game is to go head to head with other players. Im sorry, but if all we do is Recruit, and I mean actively ingame.. at no time would we have a team again. Recruit numbers are down.. this game is taking its last gasps of breath. Why not enjoy it till it ends. This division will die along with the game... ;(

The sad truth is we may need to cut out servers that arent populated. Its simple numbers and they, unfortunetly, are falling.

I love/d the game and I'll be sad when it goes, but we are being replaced by BC2, COD4, BF3. The new games out/coming out offer more realistic game play and stunning visuals. How can a 10 year old game keep up with the times?

It cant.

Pray someone has the foresight to mod CS:GO.

How could they know we don't have a team? This is the first season we haven't...
