LOL the rewards are the same for EU and NA. So what is the point of a EU v NA match after all its over, bragging rights? We all know that NA corps are better then the EU corps anyway.

So SI or WTF will get to rename a planet by virtue of living in a region with no competition? Way to hold people hands. Told everyone this tourney was going to be lame and here it is.

The top three of each tier have the same rewards but only the tourney wonder gets to name a planet. They will face #1 vs #1 in the finals. That cross continent winner will earn the right to name the planet

Edit: I just read the rules seem like standard shooter rules to me. Unlike public play you guys have to be respectful here don't understand all the fuss

After reading the rules and prizes, why would anyone actually want to reschedule their lives around this tourney? Just to rename a planet that will probably end up being in the farthest corner of the eve universe that nobody will ever even notice? The prizes are also extremely underwhelming...75 million ISK? A lot of the corps that would even think of entering their players, have personal wallets 3x that size already, they have no need for more ISK, and the tanks...lmao good, great, I win tanks that I don't use because I'm not specced into them and can't even sell or give to my corps tankers because the player market isn't up or is player to player asset trading....
The rules....lolRules. The idea that I can be disqualified for having a name or corp that UF doesn't like? Good luck Kujo, doubt these retards will like "who gives a flux

Tbqh this looks like a tourney geared towards indi and small corps who actually need these prizes, and maybe to one it two top corps who really want to name a planet after themselves so they sent forgotten by eve when this game fails and we all move on to something better.

Maybe come back in a few years and say "See that little insignificant planet over there? Its named after my old corp, we were something special in the old days of dust"

CCP wants to merge the Dust and EVE economies, yet they still give only 75 million ISK as a prize. At this rate, one of the EVE guys that owns ISK amounts in the trillions could probably buy every significant corp from the CEO, tell them they could keep the corp wallet, and then disband it. I can guarantee you some rich pilot or group of pilots from EVE will do this as soon as the economies are merged, if Dust mercs still can't compete financially. Then all of CCP's hard work with weapon balancing, good graphics, and PC fixing will be pointless, because Dust actually would be dead.

NO TEABAGGING RULE....

LMFAO HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

That is just.....that's classic right there.....omg too rich ^_^

The time has come! A tournament of unprecedented proportions! Mordu's Legion and their founder Muryia Mordu now want to determine which of you merc corps really has what it takes to get on their level. As proposed in CCP Cmdr Wang's tournament announcement. Be sure to register and stake your claim to the title of Champions!

*Registration goes from July 26th until August 2nd 6pm GMT*

I was looking forward to this a lot, but the scheduling issues along with only a 20 man possible roster to be open at those times only for that long is REDICULOUS. This makes me a tad sad.

I put up with every bug and glitch since the beginning of closed beta.
But this Tournament??

this. no comments by CCP?



Tech, I remember seeing you in so many matches in closed beta. You were one of the 4 favorites I liked on the other team, with ChicagoCubs4Ever (because I'm a Chicago native), THEDEATHNOTE (because the bastard stole my dropships every time we were teammates), and Doug Ugly (because of his very long reign as #1 on killboard). Fighting against you in many PC battles was also fun..




This Tournament is a reflection of Uprising as a whole. We were all excited, thinking it would be fun, the Devs even hinted to it. Oh, look! It is complete and utter garbage. I'm so surprised.

oh, this is a 500,000 SP alt I use for forum posting. Mostly because I constantly make personal attacks on the Devs, because of things like this. No responses? really?

D: UrgentFury also asks that messaging through the PSN or any other outside way of communicating be prohibited {Skype, Facebook, cell phone, etc.} to teammates OR to opponents not be practiced by your team. There is much more reward in "winning with honor and losing with dignity" in this community than there is in cheating.

8 vs 8 domination? thats nuts.

http://www.urgentfury.com/showthread.php/87529-Parameters-Update

Just got confirmation that we will indeed be holding 8v8 matches for the tournament and below is the map and game mode info:

Map GÇô Mountains
Game mode GÇô Domination

Rushing to the objective and spamming Uplinks (even more than in PC matches) it is then!

LOL!!!

Can smaller corps that don't have 16+ active members use people from other corps to fight? My corp was looking to join when it was 8v8.

The prizes are actually laughable really for those that stand no chance at winning anyway. I might have entered my small corp if the prizes were worth the time to at least try. Sure 75 million is nice but it's nothing fantastic that's worth scheduling life around.

Now 7.5 billion and maybe then people would care.

Alright. Update.

Due to the issues people have been having registering and the confusion about PSN ID vs ingame name, we moved the roster due date to August 6th 6PM GMT/12PM CST. Note that this extension is for the roster submission only; your corporation had to be registered by the due date, which has passed when this update was posted.

Additionally, you need to use your In game name, not your PSN ID when registering.

What if we already signed up using our PSN?
We signed up the first day of the announcement so it was pretty confusing on navigating and registering.
Though we have our gamertags written next to our accounts. We were just wondering if that would be acceptable?

No, all members in game must be housed in your current corporation.

so tournament starts today!!

how exactly is this going to work?

CCP going to place the matches in the corp battle tab?

still very unclear on how these matches are going to take place.

we know the WHEN and we know the WHO... but 12 hours from beginning and we still don't know the HOW


can we get some light shed on this please?

^^ This

First battle GAC vs Rust 415
Half of GAC team could not join the battle, we played 6 vs 15.

Battle started at 30 minutes before advertised, at 20:00 GMT instead of 20:30 GMT.

Then we had ANOTHER battle 10 minutes after the first one finished, when half the people on our team had already left after the disaster from the first one. ?????

A CCP event not working as intended? What a big surprise.


We will play for the laughs now, don't expect us to take anything CCP organizes seriously anymore.

[quote=CHICAGOCUBS4EVER
Even tho the servers were jacked and obviously more fail involved, please realize these matches are best 2 of 3. So I would assume 10m downtime or 5m or something then match 2 beginas etc.

These are not single matches....but best of 3.....every night

Not realizing it is a best of 3 match is our fault.

The 1 game starting at 20:00 instead of 20:30 is not.

Anyway, lolCCP.

lol at least you had music and some game, i had only an angry corp calling bullshit.

Guys, we're looking into the issues. Some players were unable to join the battles as they provided names other than their Character names. If this happened to you, join a squad belonging to someone that can see the battle and you should be able to join the battle.

Our battle was like this: We were in team for 20 minutes it was 2015 and we were waiting, this is it in next 15 minutes, twenty minutes before that the room was reloaded, we got kicked, we reentered, we are waiting than appear like 5 GAC players and we enter battlefield immediately , we are shocked, we win, we are out asking like WTF(nothing about French) happened, then in 5 minutes we are all automatically without entering are thrown into battle... again, now it is 15 against 11 we started again and again we pressed GAC leaving them with no objectives at the end, we were talking between us like lol CCP come on. Whole this time I was listening to my music chilling on top of map watching this disaster. Yes I can take Dust only with music, can't take more than serious games that don't let it on PS. We will see what will happen next.

P.S.: Play Dust with music, it is more fun when you play listening to your own favourite tracklist.
P.S.S.: CCP take this serious as no one will if you won't.

We hold nothing against Rust. You guys won, so be it. Good luck for the tournament.

We are just angry that we didn't have a fair chance at competing. We had a full team ready for the first match, but they could not join.

This was disgraceful. Frankly, we should have known that participating in a CCP event is a waste of time.

This is a negative sir. We did this to get our guys into the warbarge that derped the registration, after 15 mins approx after the allocated start time the other team was a no show and we all got booted. I dont even know if V corp was in the same situation.

The battle finder seemed bugged to hell as well.

I have a feeling that it kicked you back because no one from the other team showed up, so the minimum player count for that team was never satisfied. As such, no match started (and I'm pretty sure you guys get a win off that).

and what if i did everything correct while registering and still only 5 of my guys could see the battle in the mercenary tab?

Get your team to double check their usernames on the Urgent Fury website. Their account names there must match their character names.

that is bullshit because there was nothing like that in the rules, frist i was told to add the psn names for my team members, then i was told to fill in the merc names and i did that.
http://i.imgur.com/dzWDMWi.png

No where in the rules it said that the account names had to be the same as the character names

08-14-2013 02:30 PM (Group 1 - Round 2) Ninth Legion Freelance vs Tech Guard

http://www.urgentfury.com/leagues.php?l43-Uprising-EU-Region---PS3&sh=2

Are you shitting me? 2 pm in the afternoon? You seriously want us to skip work and get unenmployed or something, So basically we need to have a full team of 16 always ready at a whim of CCP/UF, you do realize we needed to register alot of players for that or that some or all of us have jobs and whatnot? Who the hell is picking these times is beyond me.

So what's going on?

It's showing up as the scheduled 8:30pm here. It might be that the site takes your profile TZ into account for all times, and as such might be showing it for a different timezone. All EU matches should be given in GMT(+0) and all NA in CST (-5)

where do I find the battle? Our CEO is EVE side. We don't have a Dust CEO, does that mean we wont see the battle? Should our directors be able to see it?

Should it be in corp tab?

It appears in Mercenary tab

Its magic man. It shows how much of a joke this tournament is with all the uncertainties. Thank ccp for informing us about the set-up

Instead of using all thIs GMT PST timer that are subject to error for many (converting it, with / without time saving parameter and such)

why not using (too) "EVE TIME" where it will be clear for everyone, i know that not All Dust player are playing EvE but i'm sure this info can be easily obtained.....

Our first battle , la501eme vs academy inferno started at about 7h30 gmt. Not 8h30. Can you tell us Logibro if there was a mistake on your side concerning the hour?

And besides, i have tripled checked my profile, its GMT 0, Also, we cant register some of our guys, apart from the gimmick of having to register to enrich Urgentfury database we shoulndt be disqualified for having players who are not registered on UF but belong to the corp from ages. Its an unfair rule and just shows how badly this was thought out.

Actually this is a common occurence in 3rd party tournaments. This prevents ringers and such, and while I agree the system is no streamlined, having each person sign up on a site is quite common.

Im disappointed in the pure lack of infromation provided, and the difficulty in entering battles.

Subesequently, entering the barge with 1 minute to go, and the matches following faction warfare rules rather than PC rules was a big letdown.

The poor payout, no salvage and most of all no friendly fire is going to cause some major issues as this tournament progresses.

Bottom line everyone in the corp should see the match. If there is a 'ringer' issue, meaning someone not on their roster on the UF site is in the match, then its up to the other team to send a ticket on UF with the proof to handle it tnat way. This is how all 3rd party tournaments have always been.

And start time is 2130 eve time for EU and 0130 Eve time for NA.

This was stated on day 1. Eu players I feel for you as matches starting 30m early is just not acceptable.

Honestly for eu id say matches should all be rescheduled for the last week. The na tourney runs much longer so why not?

EVE time is identical to GMT, so 2030 EVE Time. NA matches will start 0130 EVE Time.

EVE time is identical to GMT, so 2030 EVE Time. NA matches will start 0130 EVE Time.

we're all in summertime hours so in London it's GMT+1 at the moment even tho officially we are GMT. 1.30 EVE time is 2.30 GMT (+ summertime hours) right now.

All match times should be stated in eve time so that everyone can figure out their own time accordingly.

Alright, I'm looking into the EU matches starting early reports. I'll report back after digging about for a bit.

EDIT: And I've found the cause. They battles were started up from the UK which is on BST at the moment, not GMT. This has been fixed and future EU battles should start at their scheduled times.

Actually we in the UK are currently in BST (British Summer Time) which is GMT +1 yes.

I agree though all timers should be in EVE time, I mean there is a friggin clock showing EVE time on your menu!

O something else to do. Now how is this done?
I do not recall instructions on how to update or at least deciper that site..

Just a few quick announcements with regards to the DUST 514 Prime League Tournament:

• Some battle settings are being changed. Firstly, we are turning Friendly fire on so that teams have to be careful with their firing. Second, the warbarge timer has been increased to 10 minutes and will now start counting down from 10 minutes before the scheduled starting time. This is also when the battle will appear in the battlefinder.
• All of Monday's EU battles will be re-run due to them starting an hour before scheduled. Time/date for rerun matches will be released soon.
• A number of teams had issues getting all their members into matches due to roster issues. A number of extra entries have now been fixed, but there are still some roster entries that do not match any characters. If you have further issues during the Wednesday and Friday matches, please file a support ticket to DUST Community & Forums. Deadline for all issues with team rosters is Downtime on Monday 19/08/13 - any further alterations will not be accepted after this date. Please note that all members of your team must be in the same corporation, and that the maximum roster size is 32 characters (this includes any alts you may wish to include).
• A further reminder that each match consists of three rounds each day played one after the other. The scheduled starting times for EU are 2030, 2100 and 2130. NA is 0130, 0200 and 0230. All times are in UTC/EVE Time (battles will open 10 minutes before scheduled starting time, see above)

If you have any further issues or questions, please submit a support ticket under GÇ£DUST Community & ForumsGÇ¥.

My corp in the first match of the tourney all showed up to all 3 matches the first match Pradox One showed upi but backed out when they came in faster than we could take a picture. The second and third matchs they were no shows. We have the pics to prove it . As I understand it no shows count as a win for us yet the leaderboards and ladders are not reflecting this my entire team had no issues making it in. Some clarification from you cop would be great and if you need the pics please let me know as I have them available and where to post them or send them.

• Some players joined the matches on Monday and had no opponents show. 10 minutes after the scheduled starting time if the other team hasn't shown up the match will be ended without entering battle and you will be awarded a win.
• Players should report their battle results to Urgent Fury. While we will provide verification of the results, it's quicker for players to update the standings themselves as we only provide the results a day or two after the matches have finished.
• Post battle salvage has been changed to "Dropped" (similar to how it works in Planetary Conquest)

If you have any further issues or questions, please submit a support ticket under GÇ£DUST Community & ForumsGÇ¥.

In our alliance we created corp and transfered some players there, I registered in UrgentFury and was part of team which registered on UF, while were playing on Monday it was a good cos' I know those buddies and you no what alliance is. Now players must be from the same corporation? I could see in Mercenary Tab a battle room and could join by myself on Monday, or this means everyone could join on Monday? No, only registered.

You will need to change corporations or it's very likely you'll get kicked from the matches today and in the future. If you're having trouble changing corporations, file a support ticket and we can look into it.

I am a CEO of a corporation and we(ally corps), inside alliance established corporation that is presented in tournament. I can't really leave my corporation now.

Can you please file a support ticket so I can look into it further? Thanks.

I'd like to see this as well. I'm curious how other corps did. Also, are we the only underdogs in this tournament? I see nothing but the big dogs on the list.

Anyone had any trouble with their mercs not being able to get into UF because it says they have multiple profiles?

I have a couple of people who are experiencing this. For whatever reason they didn't complete the registration properly and then when trying to do it again it says they have multiple accounts even tho they can't log in with their initial details.

Both EU and NA leaderboards are incomplete. There are some corps that don't even have 1 "match" registered yet, despite having played their first round over a week ago now. Other teams have 3 matches recorded already. Horribly run by either CCP, UrgentFury or both.

To enter results of matches:

Go to your team page

Click:

Ladder>Uprising NA Region>League Challenges

Here it will show all your past and future matches. Take notice of the round number of each match as the site bunches them incorrectly.

Click next to the relevant match:

Submit score now

Enter the score (1 point per map so 3-0 if you won all three)

it will send this to the opposing team to verify.

You have to do this yourself. This is normal for esports events. Its just that the website blows and it is super hard to figure out how to do it.

Hope this helps.

Oh yeah your team leader may have to do this.

What is hapening with the EU league, is that some of the teams arent submiting results, so in turn we have teams, like my own, that has had 3 matches and so far only 1 was reported on UF, from what i understood, was that if the team didnt post the scores, CCP would, with their data from server side...

These are a joke list of rules right?

3rd party comms are considered cheating

All decisions are final with no need to state a reason

Profanity ON YOUR OWN COMMS is grounds for disqualification

as is anything construed as a "victory dance"

Ineligible if forum etiquette does not meet unlisted standards

Just to highlight a few.
