Shootmania Free to play (13 comments)

( Forum: SM)

Posted by rissoxx @ 16:18 CST, 12 January 2013 - iMsg

Hey guys!
I am aware of that alot of people on this forum dont really like Shootmania. But I will let you guys know about this anyway!

I just read that Shootmania will have 2 modes that will be free to play on release! One of them is the competitive mode called Elite, and the other one is some random mode.

If you buy the game you will be able to play all the other modes! Like instagib and time trial and all that!

The article about this is here: http://www.shacknews.com/article/75567/shootm...ee-to-play

So will you guys give the competitive side a chance in Shootmania?
I personally think the game is pretty fun and it totally evolves around skill. The person who has best aim and the team with the best teamplay and tactics.

It's a great initiative, at first I thought it's counter intuitive, but I guess if the competitive community exists, so will the casual one

As far as I understand, "elite" is like the TDM/Duel of quake. It's competitive, as opposed to instagib or ffa.

That's like opening all maps to all players for duel only, while keeping CA and other fun modes a payable option.

I've already given it a chance, but didn't get past the main menu.

I don't think Ubisoft has anything to do with that and I'm pretty sure what shootmania is today is solely the result of Nadeo's choices.

Ok, maybe, tbh that was just my guess (wich i'm still holding on). If it's the way you're saying then nadeo sucks badly. Anyone who stands behind this game sucks in making good games. ))

Like I've said before, the only way this game has a chance is if Nadeo pays people to play their game. It's hilarious they wasted so much money with tournaments, as if they were anticipating the League of Legends effect. I'm still appalled people get paid to play a game like League of Legends.

difference is roflmao was immensely popular before the big tournaments started. Not only that, the game is very addicting and there's so much to do and watch that people keep playing it forever.

The esports stuff is to do the latter instead of attracting new players. Now the whole "competitive" side is aimed at becoming a professional at videogamerz, with the illusion that anyone can do it (the perfect gillz game)
