Tournament Function in next home VF

I think it would be a great addition to have the ability to have the game keep up with the tournament brackets. Have several customizations as in Single or Double Elimination, Round Time and Count for first brackets, semi, and finals if needed. It could save the whole tournament as a tournament replay and you could load the whole bracket and move to any match and watch the replay. Have keyboard support for registering players. It could have a requirement to put in the mem card with their data in during their match. During matches in the tournament it could disable pausing also. I'm sure there's many other thing that it could have to make a complete tournament solution to having it all on paper.

 

these are really good ideas. I second that. /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

I was actually thinking of this at the last tournie we held, it sure would give a COMPLETE finish to evo. Maybe it's about time Sega?

yeah, why dont you just disable crouchdash too? This would ruin too many strategies


but this would be grand

 

lol how does disabling pausing so that u don't get disqualified for slipping up and hitting start effect strategies?

 

He's joking. It's funny cause when they first showed off footages of ps2 version of evo, I had thought they already did implement this function. Then I found out when I got the retail copy that it's only in quest mode for single player. /versus/images/graemlins/frown.gif

 

Damn Myke with his pessamistic sarcasm!

Tournament only take long when people do seeding and double elimination. If it's a simple single elim tourney, it'd go by really really fast. I do agree with the fact that this feature will probably never make it into a home version since it's not really a "feature" that would enhance the game in anyway. It'd be a fun little addition though, games like madden have this type of set up.

 

Srider: It's always fast for you since you never make it to the 2nd round. /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

Maybe Offically tournaments r held on arcade machines but there might be smaller, unoffical tournaments played on console there. Like just about every US tournament? =P The last tournament i seen only took so long cause there were a bunch of games and people were signed up for multiple games and no one was around to play their turns. It was really unorganized and i think it would've taken no time if the players were all in the same room watching and ready to play when it's their turn

 

wouldn't be cool if vf was an online fighter. then we could organize tournaments via vfdc. /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif
