KO Online Server

[cruzzz112]

At the beginning i apologize for my english language

KO online diversify game. Would be performed this way:
_________________
Qualifications
(if take part in qualifications an odd number of players - last player not participate in the first round and final round)
_________________
First round (first player from qualifications vs. last, second vs. penultimate etc.)
1. Worst players from pairs
2. Best players from pairs
________________
Final round
Winners from the pairs and lucky loosers

What do you think about this?

I hope, it will be the same in offline

If there were less than 50 players online the number of competitors on the second round would be less than 30. Also in ski flying hills 40 competitors should qualify for the first round and then there would be only 20 + 5 competitors taking part on the second round.

The KO-system would naturally add some excitement, but I am not sure if it's worth it since the rules would have to be quite different from the real ones.

[KubicaR]

Jussi, why?? This is great idea.

[Jussi Koskela]

Why what?

[KubicaR]

Why you not want to been it in Full Version(Online game)? Sorry for my very bad English.

[Jussi Koskela]

I didn't say so. I ony said that there are some issues why it might not work that well.

[cruzzz112]

This is good for me becouse this is new in online game, current WC game is boring, but KO is rivarly - i like it

[KubicaR]

OK, sorry. I spoke for my bad English and i don't understand this message. I think, to can been in Full Version in Offline Game(Beta) and if been good, can been in patch 1.1 in Online Game. (sorry for my English)

[Jussi Koskela]

Jussi, you said there is some issues, that might not work well. Maybe You could list it, and we will try to solve this problem eventually

I was referring to my first comment (wrong number of participants on the second round, so the rules would be different from the real ones).

Anyway, implementing this would get some time (it will definitely not make it to the first release) and we'll have to consider which are the most important new features to add later. For example extra hills vs online team cup vs. KO mode.

[Mario Kickmayer]

I agree with Jussi. What happens, when there are only 23 Players at the tournament?

[Jussi Koskela]

I agree with Jussi. What happens, when there are only 23 Players at the tournament?

Qualification:
-23 players out of which 22 qualify

1st round:
-22 players (=11 pairs) out of which 11 (+ 5 lucky losers) qualify

2nd round:
-16 players (=more waiting for 7 more players than usually)

As I already said this would be quite different from the reality.

[bulwa11]

definitely extra hills in first place

[pepsiman89]

definitely extra hills in first place

[J.MIRO]

Maybe it would be world cup online with jump points?
