Descent Champions Ladder

Post by Lothar »

D1 required, D2/D3 optional. One on one matches, play to 20, win by 2.

http://descentchampions.org/

Read the rest of the rules so you know what you're getting in to. And then come play.

Looks like you folks put a lot of thought into it. Very cool.

EDIT: Particularly like how you guys did the match comments.

If you don't still have your old Descent directory or disks around, you can buy it from http://www.gog.com/game/descent_1_descent_2

Once you have a basic D1 install, you can get the current mod from http://www.dxx-rebirth.com/ .

Then get the actual currently recommended game version from http://descentchampions.org/forum/viewt ... p?f=4&t=58 (running improved netcode, fixed homing missiles, etc.)

Oooh, I seriously hope you come and play with us all, Birdseye. That would be awesome.

Behemoth and I were just talking about you. He says you didn't appreciate the broken net code when you played in April. You'll be happy to know it's fixed now.

Send me a note with what you think is broken about mouse control, maybe I can look into that, too.
