D0cT0rDiZz Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 hey everyone. So I am just kinda curious and wondering about this. I saw their was a Ladder that was working for TS and now all of a sudden it has been down or not working for the past week or so? didnt know if their is a new one I dont know about or what was going on with it? Also have herd rumors about an active clan ladder that will be coming along. Was wondering about the progress on that aswell? I am an older player that just returned about 3 months ago and didnt even know cncnet was here till i randomly google searched TS one day and found it. AWESOME!! glad ts is still alive and going! Then saw a real ladder that was working!! EVEN BETTER!! and now its not -_-. I know i like the competitive side of the ladder and clan ladders, and i know a lot of the other top players do aswell but cant really find much info on whats going on with it. If I could get filled in with the details and such would be great!! also other players who want this stuff, please make it known we want this! maybe their isnt a much of a call for it as i think, or maybe theirs more of a call for it then the admistration thinks? Thank you for reading Brett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phenomena Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 there was a quote i wanted to bring here from 1 of the owners of cncnet regarding the ladder its something like "when we can figure out how to get rid of dodging and all the issues we had with the ladder, then and only then would we bring it back" and something agreeing that a quick match system is the only way to go all of which I 100% agree with.

D0cT0rDiZz Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share Posted February 14, 2017 but till then might as well leave some kind of ladder up. they had a working ladder going on and now it seems like its not working as any 1v1 game or any game in general isnt being logged on it anymore? atleast leave that ladder up for now. but yes a quick match would work. i feel that would be an easy thing to set up aswell. you pick what map u want out of the maps eligible for it and if someone else picks that map or something. no matter what their will be some kind of dodging. like if you have a time limit... can surrender before that time if you didnt want to play the certain player. its just a part of tiberian sun i feel. and i also feel their is not as much "dodging" as their use to be. could make it so if hosting a ladder game if you are idle for X time it closes game so u cant really fake being away or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humble Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 quickmatch system would be awesome as it would allow some automation of tournaments being hosted more regularly, and could help provide some ranking, but i'm sure everyone reading this already knows im a lover of the old clan system WOL used to have before it all went down the drain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phenomena Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 heres the quote Last time we had the ladder running we ended up with a lot of problems, players refused to play against each to other avoid losses. They dodge good players and hunt for noobs, go fake afk when a good player joined their room etc... When the ladder goes back online then I would like to have these problems fixed first, forced quick match seems to be the only solution for that, but it's a lot of extra work sadly. So currently I'm not working on it, this also won't change anytime soon. tahj is working on ladder related things currently though, like clan support and clan games (ranked 2vs2 etc..). But that will probably be available for tiberian sun and yuri's revenge only at first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D0cT0rDiZz Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 honestly any kind of ladder would be fine. i mean as for the dodging... the people who are actually looking at the ladder who know anything of anything know if one of the top people is a dodger and thats why. yeah its all relative to but it would just keep some kind of competitive part of the game going keeping it more fun for some people. even if we just got an actual clan system that we could use with a clan ladder. that in itself would be wonderful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D0cT0rDiZz Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 another thing i dont understand is when ive been playing 1v1 or any games at that the ladder isnt updating them? but looking at other peoples its been updating theirs? why is this? is it only working sometimes the one the we do have or something?

Phenomena Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 at the same time m8, whats the point of having a ladder if we know who the top 3 are anyway? Id rather wait for something that will force playing vs everyone, and force people to play on multiple maps, than the same static system we have had for 15 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D0cT0rDiZz Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 i hear u their phen but the ladder just adds another part to the game competition wise. without it. whats the point to really play and get better to try to become the best if u cant ever be the best in a way? you know? yeah all us in our group know who the best are and where we all stand but it just adds another reason to work on progressing and everything. ive always enjoyed the ladder aspect of the game honestly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1337timmay Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I think a match making system would be better as it would stop dodging and playing just tezz but i think there is some technical reason we cant have it right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D0cT0rDiZz Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 yeah the match making would be a cool idea. but then again only thing with the match making is maps.... you wouldnt know what map u would be playing and could end up being some kind of mod map.. they would have to make the match making only play certain maps. do match macking 1v1's with all origonal ww maps no mod maps. that would be a good way its random to. so any regular ww origonal map you could end up with. would make more good players good all around and force you to learn every map except the mods. i feel that would be a great way to do it personally. i do like the match making idea tho i agree with that 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phenomena Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 the map issue has all been worked out its just getting the coding up and running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
