Weekly AGR Session: Oct 2nd 2011

Alone in the Ramp Room..
Tryin’ to stay alive
In this place of torment
known as ‘2fort5’

Lonely for a teammate
But all I see is Reds
attacking in twos and threes
leaving behind gibs and heads

A cold wind blows
and I feel a sense of doom
Because all my so-called teammates
are in the damn FlagRoom

When will people learn
That in order to survive
You have to stop Red earlier
And then your score will thrive

If your greatest will
is your dominance to show
Defend the upper spiral
or the RR ye may go

Maybe the day will come
when we wont have this crap
I cry out in anguish
as Red makes another cap.

Hey people!

AGR VENTRILLO SERVER
We use ventrillo for voice chat during AGR games. Download it, install it, and connect to 78.129.193.9, port 4298, AGR (Red+Blue) channels. Password is sent to those on the AGR Mailing List, but if you ask nicely during the game, someone might help you out.

DEMOS
Thanks to Sapphired, this Session (and previous ones) will be available for download here.
=================================

OMC’s tip: To ignore a player, type ‘users’, find the players number in the list, then type ‘ignore’. If you change your mind type ‘unignore’.

ROCK2OBER 2011
I expect EVERY single player in the world to be there, so please contact me asap to make sure we make 32/32! Check out the new Rock2ober 2011 page.

WANTED ROCK2OBER 2011 VIDEO MAKER!
Ok, I was hoping to have time to make a Rock2ober 2011 promo video, but don’t know if it’s possible. To be honest, I can’t see how anyone could top last years amazing promo. If anyone has any ideas for 2011’s promo, please let me know!!! If you actually have some vid footage, or can help in some other way – yes please!!

MVD DEMO FIX!!!!
The bug where there were invisible entities in demos has been fixed! Unfortunately this will not fix the mvds already recorded, but Rock2ober 2011 will be recorded PERFECTLY!! Big thanks to Spike!!

TOUGHMAP MODE
This has been very exciting, and made for some VERY interesting type of games. Not only previously unplayable maps are now playable, but finally, experienced players can go Red without guilt, because Blue have an advantage (for once!). For more info on ToughMap mode, here’s my interview w AGR Mania Magazine!

DREAMTEAM
Well, whilst this did fall fat short of expectations, as a trial run, I’d still call it worthwhile. A pity that so few people had the balls to join Blue. The forum is there if anyone wants to initiate a team, if OMC can help you prove your D theory, let me know, the answer is ‘yes’.

See you all Sunday!

    Hi. I already installed Magix Video Pro, so try to make unofficial promo video from Rock2October 2010 playes cuts

    Big thanks to Spike! God bless Spike

      Hey piper. If we work together vid wise, we can come up with something brilliant.. I got Premiere, and can edit, but need some ideas.. Re: TM mode, as I’ve said, if anyone believes they can successfully defend dune1/sewer1p (etc) on non-toughmap mode, then I’ll happily turn it off. Don’t you agree that Haze’s idea of only switching toughmap mode after a restart is a fair compromise?

    two things.

    1. there’s a CHANCE an AGR all star will be making a special appearance this week. he hasn’t been there for months now and said he may drop by if he gets a chance. not gonna say who it is, as it will be a surprise. 😀

    2. put me in the rock2ober 2011 video if possible.

    Awesome Session, all 4 games worth rewatchng!
    north1 = action packed
    TF2k = wild, chaotic, looking forward to seeing the demo
    rock2 = This was actually the rehearsal for Rock2ober, so I missed most of it as I was workin w the Gurus behind the scenes. Bugs were found and some fixed!
    well6: awesome game, brilliant outside D (and foyer) D by Blue, kept Red busy!

    • piper

      1.north1 – too small, someone proposed remove it from AGR map’s list. Push the button wtf)

      2.tf2k – ffa action

      3.rock2 – lol moments

      4. well – not organized sniper war + center map action

  • OneManClan

    Demos are up!! The rock2 demo
    (rock2_021011.mvd.zip) is working ie you can see the entities, BUT (using ezquake) I can only look at cloud, space bar does not switch players! fte client works fine..
