We would rather be dissapointed if it didn't do it, looking at our competing mods.
Well, dunno why anyone likes faceoff, cuz it has no new concept, but we should be at least 2nd or 3rd.

For once in my whole life, i agree with DavidM.

In my eyes, faceoff is a ripoff of many other mods. The lead developer claimed it was a mod he worked on for Q3A but i doubt that, since it shares the exact same concept as Urban Terror for Q3A.

Anyway, congrats to DB, but imho it shouldn't win. There are many more mods with more potential then DB does (no knocks to the dev team)

Many mods were rushed out for the deadline, and are nowhere near completing yet.

faceoff looks promising but its NOOOO way near a decent mod like deathball that has a future in this state

Deathball's one of the most original games ever to appear. If it doesn't win there's something wrong with the industry.

it wouldn't mean anything
I guess the judges are not under regular testing conditions.....
they cant take the time they need
so a game thats fun at first and gets boring pretty fast wins over a game thats takes its time to get into, but then is fun for years

but maybe I'm wrong

Possibly, but if they've got any sense then they'll look at the merits of the game, the community (in which case we've lost... bigtime), the originality, thought and support that's put into it.
