Cerebrum Halo CE Game Tracking

**klange** · June 24th, 2009 09:52 AM

The mindfuck+free kills would only work in an FFA slayer game. It doesn't prevent them from reaching objects in CTF, Oddball, or KoTH, and it totally destroys a game of team slayer, giving the other team an unfair advantage. Not going to happen.

We already have plans for "Social" vs. "Ranked" matches (though we're not calling the higher level "ranked" because it's misleading: both match types will allow players to accumulate points)

Our structure is as follows:
Social - Matches like those never-ending bloodgulch 24/7 servers. You still get points for your kills here and the games will be fully tracked (including a complete list of all players who were ever on either team).
Hardcore - Matches that are closer to Halo 2 and Halo 3-style gameplay. Ie, 30-minute, first-to-50 team slayer, usually on custom maps. This is the sort of things the Bunghole/Bungnull hosts. Bonus points are awarded for winning, and in general, you get more points for kills/flag captures/time in the hill/etc.
Ranked - These are league matches. The "Ranked" here means they are part of an exclusive tournament ranking system. These games are specially sanctioned by the C-S team (or at least, accepted by us) and subject to specific rules.

Also, as we've said, we have a ranking/rating system that follows the Halo 3 rates but uses a COD-like point collection system. We have the same rates as from Halo 3 (from recruit to general) as well as a personal "ONI SpecOps" ranking for Cerebrum-Synapse developers (we still have our regular rating, but this is displayed instead, it's simply an indicator that we're developers of the system).

Medals: I'm working on a list of all the medals will be looking into. Most of these are fairly simple and will require only looking at the information we are given by Synapse. Others may require us to look deeper and expand the data provided.
