domination

I had to copy z-q4max074b.pk4 and q4max074.pk4 to q4max .75 folder before it let me view those demos. No need to put those maps there tho but demo_enforceFS must be set to 1.

Monsoon game was impressive stuff.

fox should try cs and awp, i lost my time with monsoon demo : (

nice rl by cooller btw

His style is just rather uneffective against cooller. Against any other player and once he takes control he doesn't need the railgun as much.

Monsoon demo is a bit boring, fox does a lot of point camping (standing/crouching at a corner, aiming at a specific location) with the rail, and cooller does his best to counter (sneaky crouching). The phrantic game is very fast paced with total domination by cooller.

can't get this shit to work :( copied the maps to q4max folder

still says some shit...

couldnt load image: models/monsters/burn_misc_sm

nevermind, i had a bad map file i guess

which bad map file did you have? q4replay shows me having all the pk4's but i have the same problem with burn_misc_sm

well i got desperate and stopped trying to use q4replay as it kept saying I had all the paksblah blah...so i put the demos in the demos folder manually and loaded up q4max 0.75 clicked on demos...then chose "force all paks". It should tell you if you're missing anything. It told me I was missing 1/24 paks. "map_l4dm1.pk4 (7ac4824f)"...so I went out and downloaded it again and it started working! :)

couldnt load image: models/monsters/burn_misc_sm
is a trivial warning ;)

oh ok :)

brain > rail

thatswhy cooller no.1!

tell that to Lost-Cause :/

i really hope we see a lost-cause vs cooller match up at cpl summer

i like lost-cause a lot but ....cooller's brain > lc's brain

i haven't seen too many lost cause demos. is he more of a thinking player than an aimwhore?

judging by context, he is more of a thinking player.

he just lost to stermy due to rail-maps ;(

any demos from that event?

err not yet

awesome cooller! both maps

fox clearly underperformed for some reason

did he?

fat and stermy leeched his skills. :P

ya its true. He had to play vs noobs (stermy is good) but playing fat and stermy made him lose skill. While they improved he just got worse and was pulled down to their skill level. which sucks for him :\

i don't think that's the reason.

i was being sarcastic.

lol?

He's never been able to perform against cooller on LAN though.

cooller > english

C'mon baby i want to see you re moving on the dance floor!

Its like he's dancing on the map :P
No mistakes

Phrantic was cutting-edge! Some really nice moves/decisions made by cooller there :p

That's gonna be one hell of a Cooller/Toxic game :)

I think the phrantic game was extremely entertaining to watch, monsoon was ruined with the railgun. For all those people who think phrantic requires no skill / all spam, watch these demos and then re-evaluate.

fox vs tox on phrantic was pretty terrible tho...

tox getting a spawnfrag after each kill, and those terrible standstills around RA, with fox trapped inside...

the map is just too random... that said, I'm starting to dislike galang too after seeing toxic totally rail-rape everyone hah, gets boring too :>

how about now? :)

yea, yea that was a crazy good game I admit. Crazy good as in crazy entertaining :>

If we chose maps based on entertainment value alone, phrantic would probably rank a lot better. That said, Phrantic might re-appear again if the new maps don't meet our expectations. Time will tell.

Yeah I guess at times it can be quite random. But for instance, think about when fox actually managed to frag cooller and get some armour, cooller still came back to retake the lead. If cooller can come back every time on that map, from the disadvantage, then surely it isn't as random as you think?

Just a thought!

Coollers an exceptional opponent though and the truth is most people are not good enough to tilt the inbalances that the map can offer.

Even I have gone on stupid frag runs on the map. There's nothing clever/skillful about taking advantage of a linear/cramped level.
Even though it's fun when you're doing the killing :/

word

same argument for pro-q3dm6 really

well, not the randomness

phrantic map for cpl!!!!!!!!!!

after watching that phrantic game, I can only imagine cooller is going to walk through CPL Summer

Big lol to everyone callimg him shit when he got owned by Socrates a few months ago through lack of play
.
An in shape cooller is IMO unbeatable. Can't wait to see what Toxic can do.

agreed. underestimating cooller is like pulling a gun on chuck norris.

= pretty fucking stupid

aye :]

cooller is the shit

Fox didn't play any of his best. I't looked, like he has surrendered from the very begining :)

Anyway.. Mange FTW!

Well yes and no. Fox beat fooki and you don't do that by playing bad. At the end of the day the results were.....

1st Cooller
2nd Tox
3rd Fox
4th Fooki

If you asked me to predict top 4 before hand it would have been those players in that order. I>E. same as Winter CPL.
The top placers worked out as suspected.
I just think Cooller and Toxic and that little bit stronger than everyone else atm. Will be interesting with the new maps.
Anything can happen.

All the top 4 players have 'o' as the 2nd letter of their alias.. thats the secret!

conspiracy!

c O <---nspiracy! OMG HES IN ON IT TOO!

i'm aoshr from now on.

Nice observation.

taken from the top 10 GGL rankings.
cooller <<<<<
socrates <<<<<
Toxic <<<<<
cha0ticz
fox <<<<<
fooki <<<<<
Winz
cl0ck <<wtf?>
TooGoood <<<<<
Ooze <<<<<

7 out of the current top 10 have O as second letter!
Other worthy players include...

Forever
Lost Cause
Noble
Nomadic
Rocket Boy
vo0!
and the icing on the cake...

MOJO!

Gotta admit it's a little scary.

fuck yeh

I am not scared, because I have the 'o' too! :)

GO FOX!

err.. dejavu, can't find any demo of mine with this same opening, altho i'm sure i just played it like cooller opened this, with the 1health escape and all.. i'm goin' crazy :\
