Match Rules (Opinions Welcome)

[Leon Richards]

Alright guys, this is going to be a bit of a rough road in deciding new rules. 2010 is alot different from the past, obviously we can not use Double Red rule anymore cause there is no fucking HUD, and the genius that thought that up didn't even put a option to turn it back on lol. So we have no idea how to go about when to end matches. I was thinking a timer, but for that it would need to be synced up with the competitors.

I also played a few matches with Scorp, and LAG seems to be a bit of a issue. If a match lags, it will more than likely be a bad match, because the reverse window is so small this year, a slight lag will muff it up. With that said if you find yourself always lagging against anyone, like at a constant rate, let us know so you won't be paired up anymore. Could be due to different countries or the servers or whatever, but LAG really messes up matches.

Lastly we have the finisher situation. If someone reverses a finisher i feel they should NOT get another shot at it, just like previous years when a finisher is reversed, the person that did it loses the finisher. Just because this year they make it so you don't lose it, i don't think we should shy away from that. I'm suggesting that if someone uses a finisher, and it gets reversed, they must let it deplete and build up again. I don't think it's right to have so many attempts at a finisher if you already lost it. then again that's just me, so your opinion may differ, so i'd like to hear it. I don't want to ENFORCE anything though.

I have no prob with Signatures, even though that to is kind of stupid, that you can keep trying with those too, i don't want to place a shit load of rules on matches, so i could care less about sigs.

Momentum for me seemed to go slower this year online. I know some say it seems faster, but when i faced Scorp, we went back and forth, i think only 2 finishers were hit in an entire 40 minute match.

Lemme know ANY opinions on anything Rule wise, because we really have to look over what's fair for everyone and how to work around the flaws Yukes always has in place year to year lol.

ALSO P.S, ONCE YOUR CAW IS DONE, APPEARANCE WISE, PLEASE UPLOAD HIM TO THE SERVERS.

Make the tags NCW, then whatever else, so i can download them, they will be used in promo videos and such for the site.

I was thinking to end a match, you can do it on single red; you can tell when they're red because they hold the body part.

Agree with the reversed finisher thing.

[Joey Dawn]

I personally dont agree with the finisher thing, ONLY cuz if i have it i know I will be oh so tempted to use it and I see how if someone did how it could start problems... We don't need problems. Just my opinion.

[Leon Richards]

Me and Scorp tested around the idea of filling up the momentum bar 2 times, not counting abilities like Kip Up and Hardcore that auto max it. I believe he said it took around 12 minutes for the first finisher. Then i got my momentum full and hit mine, then he filled his up the 2nd time and finished it. I don't know what the total time was, but it seemed like it worked really well.

The whole 1 red thing with the visual body thing is a bit of a issue in itself though, because someone can easily use durability or hardcore rejuvi to heal the part so you wouldn't be able to tell.

The finisher thing, I'm not saying you can't use it, I'm just saying if your finisher is reversed, you shouldn't get like 15 extra tries to do it again, since thats not how it was before. Before if you used it, you used it, then it was gone.

[Michael Williams]

It was like 20 mins for me to get 2 finishers in that match.

Now you wouldn't have to hit 2 finishers to win the idea for this would be just fill your momentum bar twice. In matches you don't have to pin off finisher just something that would seems realistic so you don't even HAVE to use a finisher to win at all.

[Damien "The Painbringer" Rose]

For sure a time limit max per match.. I dont like that hud is gone but, life goes on.. I think we will come to go with it, either way. Now all i have to do is get my stats up ha. Do we have a page with Gamer Tags? Actually a better idea would be atleast a 8+ Time Limit. "Minute Obviously" and must use both your Finishers? Not in a row i suppose.

[Joey Dawn]

I like the idea of filling up the momentum bar twice, sounds like a good idea. and i wasnt saying you couldnt use the finisher i meant if i had my finisher and i got reversed and i had another opertunity i would wana use it, but i perfered how it went away like last years game.

[Michael Williams]

Doing a time limit rule would be great there is just no way for everyone in the match to keep the same time.

[Leon Richards]

Yeah true, it would be hard to sync up. So far it seems 2 momentum bars seems just fine, if not better than double red. Matches last a good amount of time.

[Nicky Blaze]

How would you know when you reverse your opponents finisher? I don't think there's a special reversal animation for when it happens.

[Leon Richards]

Thats true... hmmm lol, I guess we wont be able to put a rule on that. Thats fine i guess, it still seemed cheap to get so many attempts at a finisher.
