I came up with this idea two days ago. This could be a success in my opinion. With the Olympic Games on and everything, why not bring the Olympics to the KZ scene!

Of course if this idea goes through, we would need new maps for the different events. Although a single map could host many of the events, if not all.

About the different events, i was thinking we could have:



100m / 200m etc. Running by holding W+A/D. Also we could have bhopping and other categories within this event.



500m / 1000m / 5000m etc.



Something like 3 bhops and see who jumps the longest?



240-255 units with the limited time of a minute for every type of LJ (would look like drewbie longjumps - LJs in a line).

HJ 230-244
BJ 225-245
CJ/DCJ 245-265

This is what came to mind while i had this idea. More events could be added. Prizes etc would have to be discussed of course, and other stuff.

This would work best if countries meet other countries. Maybe having 5? from each country that signs up?

Please let us know what you think about all this, and any ideas you might think of or whatever comes to your mind, share it! We really think this could be a cool tournament, but we also realise it needs a lot of work. Such as the making of the map(s), planning the whole tournament, making the rules, prizes etc.

[quote1409234199="ShoCk"]
- Springboard discipline http://images.wikia.com/porazpierwszy/pl/images/d/d9/Holmenkollbakken.jpg

- JumpBug discipline

- EdgeBug discipline (would be nice to create special blocks for those two)
[/quote1409234199]

WE ARE LOOKING FOR MAPPER(s) WHO WOULD BE WILLING TO BUILD AN OLYMPIC STADIUM FOR THESE DISCIPLINES.

This is our vision. Now it's up to you if it's gonna happen so let us know via comments if you want to participate in this tournament

gl with that but most of the active mappers don't have the required skills or don't know the engine that good for building such huge map.

28/08/2014 19:04:00

Those are awesome ideas to bring significantly the activity for a while, in my opinion. It has to be a long "tournament" though. Good luck!

28/08/2014 21:35:00

imo only someone like plane could actually do smth like this but gl

29/08/2014 01:35:00

I love the idea :)

29/08/2014 08:22:00

Fawwwwk, pls make my year <3

29/08/2014 09:06:00

sounds fun xD

29/08/2014 09:17:00

Creative stuff right here !

29/08/2014 09:42:00

I would participate in this. Sounds like alot of fun!

29/08/2014 09:58:00

sounds really good!

29/08/2014 10:24:00

Sexy Love it !! Great step toward future

29/08/2014 10:53:00

lmao best idea i heard in my life

29/08/2014 10:59:00

I have had ideas like this a few times, and especially now during the mapping contest when watching the soccer games. I visualised the arena being a good place to climb itself as well. It's easy to think of categories to compete in and add stuff like surfing and shooting. Actually creating arenas to compete in...wow...huge undertaking indeed. I love the idea though. More concrete I would suggest surfs, S-jumps, shooting, shooting during climbs (as in having to stop at certain points to shoot targets perhaps moving), assisted jumps (boost at jump off point), jumps from a certain height to a lower point, pistol throwing, grenade throwing, accuracy grenade throwing, clearing a course of rooms set with targets that pop up, holding a site being attacked by moving drones perhaps while also having to climb up a structure... I'm sure the list can be made extensive =)

29/08/2014 11:24:00

biathlon with awp!)

29/08/2014 11:50:00

I think they would like to include more disciplines with jumping included, not shooting or grenade throwing, but on the other hand, who of us haven't shot or thrown a grenade before, right? Maybe would be more fun even for a kreedz community. GL with the idea guys, sounds great. XJ will have it's own olympic games, woohoo

29/08/2014 11:50:00

how about car/ship race?

29/08/2014 12:16:00

sure as hell I want to participate, even though I'm not active these days, this sound like superb fun to me :D

29/08/2014 12:20:00

would be cool xD

29/08/2014 12:23:00

This stadium could be like the "main" multipurpose map and could maybe even serve as a new official map for longjumping as a part of it. Just don't add super-unnecessary crap such as car/ship race, throwing grenades, shooting etc.. Leave basic stuff that relates to the model and its physics with a SLIGHT hint for unusual fun activities.

29/08/2014 21:17:00

+1 on that, i hope it happens

29/08/2014 12:38:00

not bad idea...not at all! GL XJ

29/08/2014 12:42:00

great idea with auto timer

29/08/2014 13:01:00

My flags yay :D Nice idea guys, as a kind of mapper i would definitely participate in building stuff..about the map- obvious options as you mentioned are : 1) Make one big map which would seemed all together and complete, but problem is as Stanimir said, size of the map -which isnt unmakable, but it leads to another problems. Such as-i feel like not many mappers could participate in, simply because only one person can make one map at the same time + thats too much time and effort consumption for one person..ofc theres an option same like making a community block, where each mapper would send his parts of the map as disciplines, but thats not really same as building the community block since they wouldnt be actually building their own ideas in most cases (as they would be building blockparts)...another problem with this is that once the map is completed you cant add more stuff anymore which kind of pops out as it would be a long term tournament. What i suggest is option 2): Make many smaller maps.Which is the opposite of the first case. It wouldnt be all one package, but in the other hand many mappers could interact in this way. There can be rules for submitting a map so each map doesnt look completely different (if thats not intended). For example there would be like WAD package of textures chosen by community so all the maps would look similar, have similar tag (xj_,og_) etc... -This option seems flexible to me and can be done relatively fast. Still these are only ideas, what do u think

29/08/2014 13:43:00

It doesn't have to be wholly in one room, any chance teleports could make the thing?

29/08/2014 20:38:00

fun_allinone

29/08/2014 13:09:00

what

29/08/2014 13:23:00

what a great idea to do. Something that every player (new/old) in here will enjoy and have fun. Dont let this down. This is really fresh

29/08/2014 13:24:00

sounds stupid enough to work

29/08/2014 13:33:00

Sick idea!! I love this shit but instead of spectating we should build a bleacher and all kreedz buddys could watch with a bullpup zooming in for example. Security guards with ammo if we try to violate and climb over to hug our favourite contestor.

29/08/2014 13:36:00

Greatest idea ever! I love it. Can't wait for new maps ^^

29/08/2014 13:39:00

But i think if there would be only one map with each part, where you can teleport yourself, that'd be fun. I mean you spawn somewhere and from there you can teleport yourself to the 100/200m run, other teleport brings you to the swimming pool. It'd be better than make 20 maps i think. But i know it is big but maybe possible . I dont know anything about mapping haha.

29/08/2014 13:46:00

Great idea! can't wait

29/08/2014 13:58:00

I Guess im gonna do soemthing about that =]

29/08/2014 14:11:00

[b]I'm in for this. [/b]

29/08/2014 14:55:00

This sounds incredible! Its been a long time since I was this excited about kreedz. GL finding a decent mapper for that task ... :) Dont know what to say about 5players/country ... u can make it like a tournament or smth but how will u decide which players should participate? IRL, the participating ones are the best ones, so ... this needs more thinking but its a great idea

29/08/2014 15:21:00

like the idea! :) as for possible disciplines, something with ladders would be nice (e.g. a "wall race" where participants have to race along a wall with gapped ladders) and a downhill race could possibly be interesting. basically anything in non standard environments (like bhops with low ceiling) would be interesting.

29/08/2014 16:25:00

lol this is great

29/08/2014 16:41:00

This seems like a good idea, and is quite possibly to make most of the disciples in the same map or just two maps. The only problem I can think of is organizing the Olympics, and people showing up when they are scheduled... Many players didn't even submitted a demo in one week for previous tournaments.

29/08/2014 17:34:00

fantastic idea! ^^ would be so much fun to watch such olympics! Esp if the mapper would create olympics atmosphere, not only plain blocks.

29/08/2014 17:35:00

dafq is this blsht?

29/08/2014 19:53:00

"Something like 3 bhops and see who jumps the longest?" I can't bhop three times in a row without a random slowdown due to a bad frame so I'm out.

29/08/2014 20:13:00

Maybe a few mappers could work on one project, and create the different disciplines? I'm not much of a surfer, but adding that will also be interesting. Highjump as well (considering it exists in the real olympics). some of the disciplines could be simplified, and more like the olympic ones - have one person have 3 tries at 255 for example, then have another one, and winner is highest block, or highest stats in case block is the same. Same with bhop. The only way i can see this fail is if the organization does, so I hope that wouldn't happen.

29/08/2014 20:15:00

really?

29/08/2014 20:16:00

nice idea, i like u paint xd

29/08/2014 23:06:00

gl players!

30/08/2014 05:05:00

GJ!

30/08/2014 08:45:00

great, but im afraid of that if u need 5ppl from the same country, ill be alone because im living in sweden for now but im lithuanian xD

30/08/2014 10:15:00

http://www.cstrike-planet.com/maps?img=11719 thats just sick for the swimming olympics but i didnt manage to find map that has 100/1000m tracks it would be cool to have like 4man 2000m swim freestyle

30/08/2014 10:19:00

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCkphJtms6Y this is also sick one, surf olympics

30/08/2014 11:22:00

Hahaa! Great idea but too bad i cant play:D

30/08/2014 13:08:00

triathlon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

30/08/2014 16:23:00

very pro idea!!! I love it. cant wait for it! <3

30/08/2014 20:32:00

Awesome new idea.

30/08/2014 20:53:00

Im looking forward...

31/08/2014 04:25:00

Just keep on making tournaments ocasionally and keep on posting newsposts regularly and save yourself your spare time. Its a nice idea but it involves too many people and too much activity and effort to happen. KZ players dont need stuff like this if they do enjoy jumping itself they can get entertainer themselves. Rather reopen public servers XJ !!!!!

31/08/2014 08:00:00

^why u need servers when there is planty of them? Back to topic. Idea is great. If you guys would make a map like this I think it will work like with kz maps long time ago. People will call eachother to checkout the map race on it. So it's good advertisment that may bring many people back to kz and new players as well. It's sounds fun, I will enjoy it for sure. GL with that project! Mappers and administration!

01/09/2014 12:31:00

Nice Idea <3 it Go ahead guy's Pending Mappers

01/09/2014 22:09:00

I'm just glad that this got finally released. Should have been thought of years ago before i even mentioned it. But that's kz, every now and then a nice idea gets presented, and when it get executed correctly, nothing beats that in kz tbh.. to bound with the community, it will only expand new ways to keep this lovely game/community going. I'm not saying that eveyone should get along perfectly, but to put the game first (in therms of the true passion of the game) and focus mainly on that. Love you you all, even the hat3rz!:P [b]lo<3[/b]

I would do a little modification to the longjump discipline. I would do it like the current weight lifting. For those of you who arent familiar with it, you have 3 tries and cant go back if you choose a specific weight. Example 1: 1st try: you go safe for the 250 (succeed) 2nd try: you go for 252 (succeed) 3rd try: you go for 253 (fail) Your score is 252 Example 2: 1st try: you go safe for the 250 (succeed) 2nd try: you go for 254 (fail) (you cant go back) 3rd try: you go for 254 (fail) Your score 250
