Format Battles: The Unwritten Rules

Recommended Posts

Format battles have become more popular after the last update related to them. Now players can make XP, BP, XP/BP battles and people cannot join with the wrong combination and spoil the game.

These battles are created mostly in the server RU1. How the battles are made:

  • Any map is suitable, but the most popular ones are Barda, Bridges, Kungur, Parma, Red Alert, Sandbox, Solikamsk, Tribute, Zone. The most popular map for this kind of battles is Sandbox (Summer day)
  • No time limit, most of the time are made with 7 flags.

  • Supplies - OFF, bonus boxes do not matter (requires more skill when turned on. The team that picks up most of the drops has more chances of winning).

  • Autobalance is mainly OFF.

  • Friendly fire does not matter(requires more skill when turned on).

 

When does the battle start? I’m already in it!

There are some unwritten rules which are always followed by adequate players. Here are the most important ones:

  1. Wait until both teams are full.

  2. Do not shoot until the command “Go” (“Го”) from BOTH sides.

  3. Start the game while your whole team is in your base.

  4. When you see “stop” (“стоп”) in the main chat, stop shooting immediately, until somebody takes the place of the absent player, after which the battle can be continued.

 

We all agree with these rules in our minds and we understand that they’re right and should be followed. These kind of battles are especially for the players who are tired of drugwars and want to play with mature players, while testing out new tactics.

But sometimes a player closes the browser and the system still shows him in the battle. What to do?

 

If the player was from your team, open the chat and apologise1 to avoid negative reaction from the opponent’s side, then express your outrage and let them know that you realise your teammate’s mistake2. And as a reminder I would like to tell you that only inadequate players leave the battles like that. To avoid getting bad reputation and a status of “noob”, please avoid leaving the battles that way, or if you already closed the browser, enter another server. The system will automatically kick you from the battle in RU1.

 

 

 

1 - We understand our teammate’s mistake. We apologise. - Понимаем ошибку нашоего тиммейта. Приносим свои извинения.

2- It’s an inadequate behavior... - Неадекватное поведение…

 

More words and expressions.

Do they understand "sorry" or some short Russian version of this? (is "izvini" enough?)

 

What 's underneath the spoiler is a bit too much I think and I certainly can 't reproduce that. (I wish I could)
