MLP Fighting is Magic tournament?

[Bohtty 1,775]

I was reading over the FAQ of the game and I read that we will be able to host our own servers which would allow for a tournament server. I was thinking about starting a tournament when the game comes out and I was just curious to see who would participate. It would be free with possibly small reward for the winner (maybe like 20$ or something xD).

 

I've asked this question several times as a status, but I wanted to get a better understanding of who would actually be interested.

 

I've also sent them an e-mail to see if there will be a spectator mode because I think it would be interesting to record some of the fights. :]

I would love that! If you have a list, you can add me to it. I would gladly play with other forums members.

Well it would be open to anybody wether its forum members or not xD I'm sure many forum members would participate though... hopefully. lol

I would if I could. I couldn't in good faith participate in something that I know would be imbalanced. My connection is much too poor for anything of the nature so as to ever influence money.

Making a tournament seems like a great idea! I'd be willing to participate (even if I'd be one of the first to lose ), but it depends on the time and day in which it would take place.

 

It would also be a cool idea to set some kind of livestream for the event if it's possible.

[Doctor 22]

Heck I'm would love to enter. It just depends upon what day and time. So Knowing that and more details upon how is this tourny gonna go I ll decided upon whether it looks open and free on the day of the tournament.

[Pinkie D Pie 1,036]

If I had time when it happened I would. So yeah, I would, even if I might lose first, it would be so much fun to do something like this with other people from the forums.

[Motion Spark 7,807]

as long as I don't find some godlike pros among the participants, I would love to participate, I love fighting games

 

when is going to come out, I CAN'T WAIT ANYMORE!!!!

Im in. Lol maybe the armies like xfizzle / legions of anarchy could have a match?

(If so I challenge DRAGONSHY hehe!)

@@Frenzyhero,

Maybe I'll do 2 tournaments 1 purely for fun and the other for money which would make it more serious.

Ideally I would try to see if I could work in two times or maybe have multiple tournaments for timezones or just one time and try to make it as fair as possible to people in other timezones.

I would like to livestream/record some of the fights for sure, but it depends on if there is a spectate mode and how popular the idea becomes. :]

Do I always play an FPS for money? Usually, but most people don't, and I would imagine lag even slightly favoring one player over another would bring about the eternal rage of one thousand suns.

@@Doctor, @,

I'll be sure to let people know when mane6 releases the release date of the game. Maybe I'll even do a poll to see what works best :]

 

@@Motion Spark,

If skill levels become a problem then maybe i'll sort it by skill level so people of all levels can have fun :]

 

@,

I like this idea, but I also think it would be awesome to see different MLP forums vs other MLP forums >:]

 

@@Frenzyhero,

I guess we will just have to wait and see xD I'm also worried a little bit about cheating : which is another topic I'll look into more as the release date comes closer xD

"Would you participate in an MLP Fighting is Magic tournament?

Yes

No

Maybe, depends on if the game is any good"

 

What is this I don't even.

Well I mean it could be imbalanced or glitchy. Both would make any game unplayable no matter what the subject matter is.

A tourney sounds fun! If one was to be created, I would definatley like to participate in it. Maybe some time after the game is out, (Y'know, so everyone can get used to the game.) an official thread can be created here to hold the tourney.

I would probably do more than one if the first is successful. I would also probably wait like a week after release if it worked for people time wise because Then everyone is only sorta used to their character. xD

Right. I'm also sure selecting a character won't be hard because most would probably play as their favorite pony. (Assuming their play styles aren't radically different.)

[Haven Celestii 9,385]

I will totally do this when it comes out! Just to get my ass kicked! Cause I'm not that great at fighters, but oh well!

1 week?

one week is not enough time to practice before the tournament, we need first to learn the gameplay then, practice for the tourney. We need first a friendlies thread to practice with friends

Indeed they would even though the playing styles are shaping up to be rather different indeed. I would probably have a counter by including a "who do you play as" in the registration. That way we can all see what character is being played and eventually what person plays the best as each character.

It doesn't really matter because everyone will be at the same level of "I don't full know my character yet" maybe I'll push it back another week, but it really depends on when it's coming out. xD

[NavelColt 22,880]

Nope. No big explanation why. I'm just not the type of person interested in fighting with other people for competition purposes. I'll have fun with the game itself.

[pinkiefan1287 610]

I would only do it if I got good at the game and my computer did not drop my internet. Still I would need to make sure that I am good to fight.

[Mellow 73]

This sounds like an excellent idea! I would love to do this when the game actually comes out that is...

[Cherry Blossom 864]

I'd totally play a tournament match when the full game comes out. It seems really interesting to me.

[hana 217]

i would love to join :3

but ill probably suck XD

btw

how can you make an tournament over the internet, it doesnt look like a computer to computer game 'A'
