[QUOTE="Admin, post: 44509, member: 1"] The code-wizards at Oxeye Games Studio have outdone themselves. We present… [URL='http://www.twitch.tv/bot_cobalt']BET ON COBALT[/URL]. Team Strike is one of Cobalt’s most intricate modes. And it makes for a fantastic spectator sport, even when it’s played by BOTS. With that in mind we’ve set up a two week twitch stream where teams of bots battle each other to the death. TWO WEEKS of awesome. But what’s a sport without a little wager and real-life prizes? Pointless, that’s what. [ATTACH=full]3044[/ATTACH] [SIZE=5][B]HOW DO I BET ON BET ON COBALT?[/B][/SIZE] This is where things get really exciting. BET ON COBALT gives you the chance to bet Volts (which have no real money value) on the outcome of each match. you start with 100 volts. It’s up to you whether you keep things simple and just vote on the winning team of each round, or go pro and spread-bet on specific happenings in the match, like Multi-kills or Aces. Betting is relatively simple. Before a round begins, bot_cobalt will state the odds. Enter your bet in the public chat, or whisper it to bot_cobalt in between each round. Once the round is over, winnings are paid out. You can check your funds at at time by typing “[B]!v”[/B] into the chat. [SIZE=4][B]BETTING ON A TEAM TO WIN A ROUND[/B][/SIZE] To bet on an individual team, just type either ibet or !bet into the chat followed by the team name, then the amount.

For example: “[B]ibet b 50[/B]”. You can also bet a percentage of your current balance on the outcome.

The chances of them happening are slim, but the odds are massive. Risky but lucrative. You don’t need to pick a team for special events. If either team earns an achievement you’ll get the volts. There are four achievements. [LIST] [*]MULTI - When a bot takes out two others in one shot. This normally happens with a well-placed grenade. [*]ACE - When one badass bot takes out the entire team. [*]WHOLE - When every bot of a certain team survives the round. [*]COMBO - When one bot takes out two enemy bots in quick succession. [/LIST] For example, to bet 500 Volts on either team scoring a combo in the following round, type “[B]ibet COMBO 500[/B]” [ATTACH=full]3045[/ATTACH] [SIZE=5][B]BUT WHAT DO I DO WITH MY HARD-EARNED VOLTS?
