Official Tournaments launch tomorrow, November 18!
Okay guys, thank you all so much for your help during the public beta of tournaments. We think we have fixed all reported issues and we also tweaked many things, so we are ready to officially launch PT Tournaments tomorrow, Monday November 18! :flowers:
For this, we will release another OOTP 20 patch, version number 20.8.72 tomorrow morning. This willl be a required update for PT users, just like last Monday, so you will need to update the game to be able to log into PT after we have updated the servers. A few things worth mentioning: 1) The sim interval for all tournaments will be 10 minutes starting tomorrow. However, the time between the scheduled start time and the first simulation still depends on the size of the tournament because the files need to be created by the servers: 8 teams - 10 minutes 16 teams - 15 minutes 32 teams - 15 minutes 64 teams - 30 minutes 128 teams - 60 minutes The time the server needs to actually create the files (the tournament status shows "Preparing"), so that you can download them and review your rosters, is: 8 teams - ~2 minutes 16 teams - ~3 minutes 32 teams - ~6 minutes 64 teams - ~10 minutes 128 teams - ~21 minutes 2) All beta tournaments will be deleted, so if you signed up for a weekls / monthly, you'll need to do it again once we make the new tournaments list available Monday. 3) The server will differentiate between DH and non-DH tournaments when it comes to automatically importing the default team submit for a new tournament (when you set up the rosters before the tournament has started). 4) On top of constantly refining the offered standard tournaments, we will schedule awesome special tournaments from time to time. The first one will happen this week, in connection with an awesome content release we'll have on Monday. Make sure to tune into our Twitch channel tomorrow evening and watch Kris' show, it'll rock! 5) Defensive training of individual cards does not carry over from regular PT to tournaments. We asked the community and you decided :) Alright! Any questions? :) Cheers, Markus |
Thanks for this, really looking forward to it!
Where did we end up with using trained players from regular perfect team in the official tournaments? Is that supported or is it just original positions. Thanks! |

Thanks a lot, guys. Tourneys are very, very cool.
If I could just break the Semi-Final Curse. Does anyone have a live chicken? |
Will cards like Ted Simmons be offered more than one time?
|
Are there any plans to change eligibility?
Because you seem to have an issue with not enough participation in the open & diamond levels that are the natural environs of whales. Because of this whales gravitate to whatever is starting quickly. That inevitably leads to them grazing at the only levels F2P and newer players can win at. I was really - perhaps naively - thinking this was a way to give those not willing to open their wallet wide another way to win, but it's not looking that way in practice. |
In terms of open tournaments, there's just not enough of the 1750s f.e.; if I want to build a 1500 roster, I can go into the irons right away...

I am a little disappointed about the training not being utilized. Especially disappointed that I did not have a chance to vote since I play the game and work full time and the statement is that I had a say but didn’t. Not sure if all users really had a say or if robot votes counted ?

Nobody ever addressed my bug where I wasn't awarded the 1st place prize, posted 3 times about it and sent an email...disappointing.

You said regular PT training won't transfer into tournaments, but can we train players in tournaments? Or will players playing out of their regular position never get experience?
|
Just wanted to say great job to the OOTP team for all that they have done to make tournaments run smoothly.
|
I'm going to have another very unproductive day of "work" Monday

**** dude it isnt that complicated. Play your ss at 2b and see what happens, no one is here to hold your hand. Its the same as playing a ss with no 2b training at 2b in any other part of the game.
