Faceit New Cup Format (81 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 12:47 CDT, 1 September 2014 - iMsg
Hi to everyone, I know it has been awhile since we have done any updates in regards to Quake Live on our site. Well I am happy to announce that we have changed our cup format completely in order to offer our beloved Quake Live community the chance at some free daily cups. Please refer to the schedule below or visit us on the Faceit Site.

We have also decided to bring back and promote the beloved team aspect of Quake Live with some 4v4 TDM/CTF Cups every second Sunday, in the early evenings. These events will be held bi-weekly with the first event being TDM in EU and CTF in N.A. The first event will be at 11:00 CDT, 14 September 2014 in EU and in NA at 18:00 CDT, 14 September 2014 . We are hoping that some of the players who normally play and stream would be willing to help out and sign a team up and stream these events in EU.

Feedback in regards to these changes is always of course welcomed and we would like to know what you all are thinking. All of our cups will still be played in the Quake Live "Classic" style of play, they are still Bo1 until the Semi-Finals and Final which is Bo3. With all of the major updates that have occurred and are still coming, at this time we are not able to add any new Quake Live accounts to FACEIT Profiles. This is due to changes in the Quake Live API, which our systems are not yet in line with. Hopefully this issue will soon be resolved and very soon new Quake Live accounts can be added to profiles again.

Targetquake August League (35 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 22:33 CDT, 10 August 2014 - iMsg
Well I have decided to start up the N.A. League again here. The format will be slightly different this time around though. Only serious players need to register, you must idle on mIRC in order to communicate with other players or myself.

The groups will run from August 22-28th, the matches will be scheduled throughout the week and streamed live on Targetquake, with a maximum of 16 players. Each group will consist of 4 players and the top two from each group will advance to the Finals, which will be streamed live on Thursday, September 4th. If you are not available to play a lot of quake during the posted week above or the day of the finals, please do not bother signing up. All players who sign up will be grouped according to their elo from QLRanks.com.

Summer is almost here and things are starting to heat up, not only outside but also in the Quake Live Competitive scene as well: The FACEIT Spring Season Finals!

The beginning of the season saw some unexpected players rise up to the challenge with the absence of Evil, but in the end it was the Russian who topped the standings, winning a total of five out of ten Sunday Cups. Him and Cypher will be joined by ash, pavel, Madball, Agent, Sev3n, and dem0n to fight for the $500 prize purse and the title of Spring Champion.

These eight players are divided into two groups, with all matches played in best-of-three. The top two players will head into a single elimination best-of-five bracket.

FACEIT SPRING SEASON SUNDAY CUP #10 (292 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 11:11 CDT, 30 May 2014 - iMsg
The FACEIT Spring Season Week #10 has finally arrived. This past week we saw Russia evil win his fourth straight event, his dominance has been established and well be beyond a shadow of a doubt if he wins this Sunday as well.

He easily made his way right to the finals where he beat Belarus Cypher in three straight games to play an absolutely perfect tournament again by not losing a single map to any of his opponents. This is a remarkable feat considering it is the fourth week in a row that he has pulled this off.

This week I am sure will be just as entertaining so tune in or you can already sign-up now! The cup starts at 07:00 CST.

Unfortunately due to the studio being occupied and ddk hosting another event, we are unable to stream this week's cup. If anyone wants to stream, he's free to do so!


If you missed the Match of the week #19 - DEM0N vs. EVIL (Spring Season Cup 8), then you better give it a look you do not want to miss the thrills of this match.

We have made a few changes to the EU weekly cups. We have added free TDM/CA Cups each night of the week in order to further promote these events. So feel free to join as often as you like. This will also help us determine which night of the week is the more popular for each gametype. We have also changed the late night level ten cup to alternating level 2/3 cups, this is because more of our cup player base has a lower tier rating. This weekends Fun Cup is Furious Heights, we figured since it is not in the map pool this month it should be played multiple times in a row.

The new cups format and map pools listed below will take effect starting today. All the cups for the whole week are posted on the site, so feel free to head on over and take a look. Remember all these points you win can be exchanged for prizes, such as Razer gear in the FACEIT Shop.

This is a quick reminder that the League has now started and will run until: 00:00 CDT, 16 March 2014. So get your game on and lets get this done so we can start it all over again. I look forward to continuing this the whole year while gathering even more players hopefully. This league is a designed to be a build up to Qcon to gauge players skills in there own groups in North America.

I hope that maybe in the future when the pro's have more time to commit to Quake, they will join us they are all aware of the League and were just not able to commit their time at the moment.

We have only made one change to the weekly cups for this week. The EU Mon-Fri Cups have all been pushed back one hour, due to requests and player traffic is heavier an hour later so more players will have an opportunity to play in their skill set.

Last weeks fun Cup on Saturday was a Furious Heights Cup and it was well received, this Saturday we will be running a New Maps Cup. There is only 3 maps in the pool Cure, Delirium, and Sinister, you can sign up now: Europe, North America.


We had a much better turn out for the EU TDM Cup by putting it in the early slot instead so lets keep it up and make it grow. The EU CA Cup also had a decent turn out as well so if we can keep building on these over the next few weeks that would be amazing keep telling your friends to make a team and join on up. Both of these events are linked in the schedule below for each region so if you want to sign up now click the cup schedules below.

The new cups format and map pools listed below will take effect starting today. All the cups for the whole week are posted on the site, so feel free to head on over and take a look. Remember all these points you win can be exchanged for prizes, such as Razer gear in the FACEIT Shop.

We have made a few changes to the weekly cups for this week. The skill level start times have been switched in order for players who play later on at night with a lower skill to be able to participate in the cups.

The February map pools have had slight changes made to them I hope you enjoy them, they will be the same throughout the month so if you don't normally play a map and want to practice it in a competitive way to see how you measure up give it a try.

Last weeks fun Cup on Saturday was a Blood Run Cup and it was well received, this Saturday we will be running a Furious Heights Cup so look for it and sign on up. Semi-Final and Finals are still Bo3. We have also switched the TDM and CA 2v2 Cup times, due to the TDM cups running very late due to the length of time it takes to play a Bo3.

The new cups format and map pools listed below will take effect starting today. All the cups for the whole week will be posted on the site by tomorrow morning, so feel free to head on over and take a look then.

Where I think Quake can GO (52 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 20:51 CST, 27 January 2014 - iMsg
In my mind everything comes full circle eventually its just a matter of time before Quake makes its resurgence be it as a standalone game which has new features incorporated into it or a newer version but the FPS genre has always been owned by quake and tbh I think it always will be. It first needs to be these things:

1. A fun game that you can just join and play
2. It needs a good league system that has skill building tiers
3. It needs a solid tournament system with consistent weekly cash events
4. It needs a Large LAN event that has a cash payout that is substantial enough to support world wide competition.

These are simple things to achieve to start to build the user base. Players are not looking for new and exciting things in a game they want a game that provides some sort of structure to nourish growth in the game, why do you think the current games like LoL or Dota2 are doing so well. Its not the constant little micro transactions that players are doing its the tools that are in place that help nourish the gamer and help them grow and improve in the game.

As humans we all want to improve and be better and lets face it in Quake atm there is not a system in place to nurture this need. Everyone wants to make money and a lot of the big name sponsors do not see any money return on quake because they look at it as a game that has been milked dry. They are wrong it is just that all the tools to teach and grow the user base are missing in the game itself. People are inherently lazy and require resources to be all in one place.

The other thing that Quake is missing is that fun factor. I miss the days of firing up quake and joining a server and just playing. People want to be able to just play for fun and in Quake atm that does not exist. Quake has been completely set up as a competitive game. From the "F3" Ready command to the score boards that give you all of the in game stats during and when the match is finished. These things were everything that the game lacked competitively that was introduced as mods in Q3. The problem is that it completely killed the public fun aspect of the game which is what ninety percent of any games user base is.

I would love to see how successful a server would be if it had no ready up percentage, if it just had a 30 sec countdown on the map that loaded and then you could just start playing the game. There was no timeout command or call vote command to change the team size everything was set to the max so team games would be 8v8 and single player games were set to 16 players and of course they would have to have maps that were appropriate for them which there is. Yes its not competitive like 4v4 CTF for example but its fun. I see TF2 still today with full servers that are team games that are 8v8 or even more. So why cant we do this sort of thing in quake too. Why are we still just catering to that ten percent of the player market that is competitive. Why not have a mix of both.

I think the standard user base should have only that option they should not get the competitive features of QL unless they pay for it and then when they do pay for it then they see all the other features that Quake has to offer. But to force a competitive game style on someone as soon as they download the game seems a bit ridiculous to me. In my mind it is the reason to where the game has evolved to today and why now we are struggling to see the user base grow. The game needs to offer both aspects of it the competitive aspect that Quake Live is today and the fun aspect that Quake III Arena used to be. I still love going and playing 12 v 12 CTF on Crom in Q3 almost every night, why cause its fun its not competitive and even the scoreboard only shows my points, ping, and time played. I never hear from anyone at the end or during the match that i suck cause i maybe am at the bottom of the score board with the least amount of frags and most deaths cause i am playing offence on CTF and keep dieing just trying to run the flag. These features are great in a competitive environment but as a fun aspect of the game they actually have a very negative impact on the game and the new players that come to play it.

I see great things in the future for Quake and I hope that maybe we all take a look back and remember why we were so drawn in by this game when we first encountered it. It was not the competitive aspect that we see in front of us as Quake Live it was the fun factor of just logging on and playing the game and it was exciting and new and interesting. The weapons were cool and the maps were demonic and close quartered. The over feel of the game was intoxicating to play for hours on end. I miss those days and sometimes I throw up my Thunder CTF server in QL and fill that sucker for hours on end playing 7v7 CTF. I miss those days and I think if we had servers like that you would see the fun factor return, its where high skill meets low skill and we all can play together and enjoy the game for what it is FUN!!

These are just my thoughts and I do not want to spark a debate I just thought I would throw them out there, hopefully you will understand the enthusiasm I have for this game and why you see it in my streaming and the reason I have been promoting the game religiously for years. Whether it be by spending thousands of dollars running a server for over 10 years in Q3 or streaming live competitive shows online or being an admin for ESL, CSN, and now Faceit. I love the game and just like you I want to see it grow and i do not believe it has to do with money it has to do with making the game fun again. If the game is fun the user base will grow, which in turn provides a slightly larger competitive scene which in turn draws in the money, remember the money goes where the people go in esports. So to me my goal is now to try and make the game fun and nurture the skills for players by providing a system that is competitive but only with in each players skill level.

Cheers

P.S. There is no tl;dr version sorry :P

From Monday to Saturday we have our daily FACEIT Cups, we have decided to run monthly map rotations in order to let players have a chance to play on specific maps for a longer period of time.

We still have a different Premium Cup available every day of the week!

On Saturday we have 3 Cups with higher points prizes. We have decided to switch the Saturday Team event from 2v2 TDM to CA 2v2. These points can be exchanged for prizes, such as Razer gear in the FACEIT Shop.

Sunday will see the Fall Season Cup #8 continue, and commentary will be provided on FACEIT TV, with casting by ddk and special guest.

From Monday to Saturday we have our daily FACEIT Cups with several Duel levels, Clan Arena, CTF and TDM, plus a different Premium Cup on every week day! Remember its the beginning of the month so all accounts reset to 4 free Cups again, so join us in some fun competitive action.

On Saturday we have 3 Premium Cups with higher points prizes. We have decided to switch the Saturday Team event from CA3v3to TDM2v2 for the month of November. These points can be exchanged for prizes, such as Razer gear in the FACEIT Shop.

Sunday will see the Sixth FACEIT Fall Season Sunday Cup. The fifth edition was won by Cypher but not without taking it to a fifth and final map, taking out tox 16-9 in the final. Commentary will be provided on FACEIT TV, with casting by ddk and a guest.

Default+ Blue Theme (5 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 22:45 CDT, 17 October 2013 - iMsg
I am using the Default+ Blue theme and for some reason the player popularity Plus symbols just stopped showing up one day. I have tested it on IE, Firefox, and Chrome and they all do not show the player popularity Plus Symbols. Is this a bug in the theme or do I have a setting enabled that is making them not show?

Targetquake 24/7 FragTV (10 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 22:46 CDT, 23 June 2013 - iMsg
So as you can tell I really like the FragTV concept, and have decided to run an experiment to see if players are interested in helping out the project, which will in turn hopefully keep the development going. I would love to see non stop games on the server to truly test the program to see if any major bugs pop up that we can relay to the author of the program.

I have set aside my streaming rig when not doing live shows to continuously run a FragTV server. At this moment I have decided to run a QL server located in Chicago named "Targetquake FragTV". This is all to support the project and hopefully we will see further developments with it.

I am hoping that this will spark some interest from the duel community to play some of their games on the server in order to give the viewing community a chance to watch matches with High Quality graphics on wolfcam with whatever favorite config they have. If you want a config to use in wolfcam here is a post started by He4rTL3sS.

The main reason for FragTV is to have an option for people who get lagg on twitch to watch a stream with HQ graphics so lets hope this is the answer. If you are interested in watching the live stream demos then grab the FragTV download here. Dont forget you need wolfcam also which you can get here. Remember you need to copy paste all the QL maps from your QL folder into your baseq3 folder of your wolfcam. You can put wolfcam anywhere it will run anywhere.

Targetquake FragTV
Address: demo.targetquake.com:80

Cheers and go play some games.

I was wondering if there is a script for auto recording as soon as you join a server when the players are in warmup? I have autoaction turned on to record actual games but would like to record as soon as you join or a map changes.

Testing Dual POV in QL (17 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 13:34 CDT, 17 June 2013 - iMsg
Well with the release of FragTV it got me thinking about the whole duel POV for viewers and I came up with this little tidbit. The one is slightly delayed by like a 1000 of a second. I played around with the sound settings towards the end of the second match. Would this be something that you would be interested in seeing?? Maybe with a slightly different format obviously this is just a test but want to get feed back on it.

Tell me what you guys think?? Namco_ vs c0ff33p0t Thanks for playing a few while I tested this out guys.

Also tried some Picture in Picture!! Which I think is a much better option for QL PiP

N.A. PQL Open Duel Series - Use & Abuse (4 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 11:02 CDT, 28 April 2013 - iMsg
Our fifth and final PQL duel map is Use and Abuse a classic CPMA map from Q3 that has been played for years in duel events. The map is just two rooms with some multiple levels that surround the outside of them. It also has a portal which links the two rooms for quick exists or bait points whichever way you want to look at it. The best part of this map is the location of mega and red armor, mega is in a small room which you can trap your opponent in and the red armor is located in such a position that you can spam rockets in there and pinch out your opponent at the portal point also from the other room.

N.A. PQL Open Duel Series - Aerowalk (12 comments)

Scheduled: 20:00 CDT, 2 April 2013 to 00:00 CDT, 3 April 2013
Schedule: Passed

Things are starting to heat up in the PQL Open Duel Series now, with only 5 points separating first and third place. Walter managed to steal first place away from Chance knocking him down to third place, due to his absence in the second event. DSN played a very dominant Hektik and managed to claw his way into third place. The rest of the field is trailing by a bit but with three more events scheduled, we should see some major movement by some of the other players who are trying to get into the top eight.

As I am sure some of you have heard we here at Targetquake have decided to move on from having our events hosted/powered by CSN. We appriciate all of the great events that they have helped us with and we wish them all the best in the future with their new ventures.

To start off with we have renamed to Targetquake Productions. The main reason for this is we are now being asked to host events for other players/organizers in the community. We will still bring you the same great weekly format that you have come to expect, but we are also going to try and involve alot more people from within the community.

I am also pleased to say that all the admins from CSN who have helped out with all of the Targetquake events have teamed up with us here at Targetquake Productions. You will still see/hear from the same friendly admins that you have been interacting with, and hopefully a few more as we try to grow and take on more challenges.

What does this mean to the Quakelive Community? Well nothing really we will still be bringing the same great events that you have come to expect from us. There will just be a few minor changes on how you the players will have to deal with the events. For more information on what players competing in our events need to do please give this a quick read Player Info.

Our bracket/sign-up system will be temporarily held at Challonge.com, until our new home is completed hopefully by mid February. So if you compete in our events and are not registered with them please do so when you have time.

We have tried to make everything as easy as possible for the players involved with the events hosted by Targetquake Productions. Everything except the actual sign ups for the event is completely accessible on our site. Vod's and Demo's will now be hosted on the site also making the site almost a one stop destination for all our events. All of us involved at Targetquake Productions are very excited about the new things we are trying and we welcome any and all feedback from the community, so if you have an idea on how to possibly improve our ventures please feel free to get in contact with us.

Time to get the ball rolling on this side of the pond since there seems to be a ton of action in Europe right now I don't think we need to be doing anything over there. Whats up here in N.A. you say? Gonna get all up in your face with some Toxicity. With three small rooms connected by a hallway that if you get stuck in it expect to get punished, this small Intermediate level of a map is very hard to gain control in once you have lost it!! So if you think you got what it takes to tip toe around the acid while burning your opponent feel free to sign on up.

This event starts at 18:00 CST, with check-in beginning at 17:00 CST. We will not be increasing the brackets anymore. The wait-listed players will be able to check in 15 min prior to closing.

I would prefer to see all matches played on private servers with passwords in order to not have any disruptions! Hope to see you all sign up!

8-Bit Salute Charity Event (96 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 00:18 CDT, 31 October 2012 - iMsg
We would like to take this opportunity to first mention a few things about this event. This is an event that we agreed to do for the charity involved, since it is something that we all enjoy doing. Which is relaxing and forgetting about the day we had or the stresses that we endured. The Operation Supply Drop Charity does just that it ships games to troops overseas so they can relax and forget about the real world for awhile where they put there lives on the line for us simple folk here at home.

The main reason we are hosting this charity is we were approached by the Charisma+2 Agency to host a online QuakeLive tournament and since Quake is one of the longest running FPS games out there we thought it was a great idea and wanted to show our support for the charity and the event. Charisma+2 has been supporting the OSD Charity for seven separate events so far. For more information on some of the other events that the C+2 Agency will be holding across the country that day check out the Charisma+2 Magazine.

So if your interested in playing against a few models and maybe winning some great prizes then sign on up and donate five dollars to the OSD Charity!!

Targetquake Duel - House of Decay (37 comments)
Posted by easytarget @ 19:09 CDT, 4 October 2012 - iMsg
Scheduled: 20:00 CDT, 9 October 2012 to 23:00 CDT, 9 October 2012
Schedule: Passed

We have had many requests to host House of Decay, one of the more popular duel maps in QuakeLive it has some serious fast paced action due to the modified teleporters that were added to it. This is a smaller map but ranked as Intermediate. It was originally released with the Q3 Dreamcast Edition in October of 2000.

This event starts at 19:00 CST with check-in starting at 18:00 CST. We will not be increasing the brackets anymore due to players being in school and/or working in the AM. The wait listed players will be able to check in 15 min prior to closing.

I would prefer to see all matches played on private servers with passwords in order to not have any disruptions! Hope to see you all sign up!

Well as you all know we have had alot of requests for Dismemberment, so without further a due here it is!! This event was actually post on the CSN site over a week ago and we have already filled but the wait list is pretty much wide open and from the sign ups last week(24/16) and the only 14 actual peeps who checked in you will most likely get to play in the event. So feel free to at least sign up to the wait list and come hang out on irc on Tuesday!

This event starts at 19:00 CST with check-in starting at 18:00 CST. We will not be increasing the brackets anymore due to players being in school and/or working in the AM. The wait listed players will be able to check in 15min prior to closing.

Let the massive offensive attack continue!! This weeks map will be Hektik, a small but very powerful map with multiple levels that are all easily accessible with the portals. There is also a few smaller rooms which are great pinch points or bait areas for your opponent!!!

We are expanding our gaming events to a few weeknights as well!

The first of many events will be a Duel Double Elimination, it will consist of only one map. The chosen map for our first event will be Aerowalk. We chose the map due to its fast paced action with very minimal places to actually hide from your enemy. This will only be a 16 player bracket due to the fact that it is on a weeknight, we do not want it to run past 21:00 CST.

Who: CSN
What: Duel - Double Elimination
