I think we need some compo ideas

Graffiti challenge.

Place the OC3D logo out in the real world somewhere and best/unique location gets a reward ;)

Just keep away from my walls!
 
I'm really liking the gaming comp ideas, maybe battlefield 4? :P Or a real fps like red orchestra 2

But my favourite would be last man standing on DayZ, it would be heart-wrenching, frustrating and just fun!

The gaming comp idea was centered around old games so no matter whst rig people are running they can join in and those old games are cheap as chip for those tgat may not have them but want to get involved.
 
So a game like Doom or Quake? Both are just £5.99 on steam for some of the original FPS's.

Problem Solving Idea... how about a competition for the best idea?

Ever had a situation when setting up a rig where something just wont quite fit? or had an idea for a product that doesn't exist? perhaps a tool that has yet be invented. we all overcome small problems when building rigs and etc, that's part of the fun. but has anybody had any really good ideas for inventions that could solve the more common problems we all encounter...

Or maybe a Best Competition Competition ?

I'm up for some Quakelive... It's free and a little bit easier for newbies! It'll also be coming to Steam soon :)

Quake Live will be dead soon. Didn't you read the update leak? It's pretty much confirmed.

New Default Gameplay Ruleset

Players may now hold jump to continuously jump.
The minimum allowed time between jumps has been increased from 50ms to 100ms.
Players may now hold forward and jump to 'bunny hop', allowing them to slowly gain up to 2x their base movement speed.
When wielding the Gauntlet, ground movement speed is increased 6.25%.
Introduced Loadouts, allowing players to select one Primary Weapon (hmg, rl, lg, rg) and one Secondary Weapon (mg, sg, gl, pg).
Added the command "weapon toggle" to toggle between your Primary and Secondary weapons.
Unified weapon respawn time to 5 seconds across all gamemodes.
Added global Ammo Packs, in lieu of weapon specific ammo, where each pack grants you a small amount of ammo for each weapon in your inventory.
Reduced ammo respawn time from 40 seconds to 10 seconds.
Added in-world item timers for "major" items, including armors, megahealth, power-ups, and medkit. Respawn timers blink once per second, and display one "pie piece" for every 5 seconds that has elapsed.
Items have taller pickup collision boxes, so that players will not miss items as they jump over them.
Power-up spawn indicators now appear when a power-up has spawned in the arena.
Enabled self-kills with an additional 1 second respawn penalty.
Railgun damage 80->90
Rocket splash damage 84->100
Gauntlet damage 50->75

Weapon Changes

Added new weapon, the Heavy Machinegun to act as a viable primary infinite range hitscan weapon with some but minor spread.
Lightning Gun now does 6 damage per cell across all rulesets, or 120 damage per second.

General Game Changes

Fixed the CHEATS ENABLED notification on the map loading screen from lagging behind its proper state.
Reduced the default amount of player movement bobbing.
Reduced the default amount of damage kick movement.
By default, don't show weapons you don't have in inventory on your weaponbar.
By default, bob major items when simpleitems are enabled.
Prevent broken shader image on crosshair '30', '60', '90', which would equate to crosshair "none" as the cycle repeats.
Bots now randomly select loadouts, when applicable.
Greatly reduced multiple pickups prediction errors.
Removed the option to move to FreeCam while dead in elimination based gametypes.

Create Match Features

Now support custom values of starting ammo in AD, CA, DOM, and RR.
Added optional Double Jump physics player movement mechanic.* (*Not yet actually on Create Match UI.)

Arena Changes

Removed Team Arena Runes from all maps.

Play Quake 3 instead, it's Quake Live with more features and it's actually free and not subscription based.
 
I know what Quake 3 is and I'm also in said Focus group for Quakelive. Having played for the UK national team, I have some experience in this game.

But you have a huge point, I'm just hanging on for dear life...

:(

When QL is dead in the water or if they introduce vehicles (jk), I'll defo be going to Q3!!!

I'll hit you up if/when this happens lol

Get ready for a massive increase in speed. Well, or you stay with VQ3 which is more like QL, but CPMA is far more fun.
Definitely hit me up when you start with Q3.
Also there is going to be a new arena fps called reflex, definitely the most promising of the bunch. They made their own engine to optimize input and an in game map and demo editor, pretty neat.

Thanks man, appreciated!
 
I'm having second thoughts on the game idea now the reason being there is a lot of new guys here, some don't even have a system yet. It will be difficult getting a server big enough as well. Well there won't be a server big enough.

I think an OC3D game server for a particular game voted for in a poll would be great as a gaming place for us to get together whenever, maybe have a monthly games night just for fun to with advance notice given on the forums.

A new idea for a competition is needed I think.

Edit: I'd like to know Tom's thoughts on the given ideas so far as well, some might not be do-able for him so it will help point us in the right direction.

Also the skill of individual participants as eluded to earlier, varies greatly, especially on PC.
 
I am thinking some graphics cards and cases. My evga 560ti is crapping out on my second one the fan blew to pieces. Maybe some ssd
