StaRt matCH

In both player and ranked matches, gametypes are presets for play modes, map
cycle and minimum number of players. The Game Length option sets the time limit:
quickie, average and endurance are 10, 20 and 30 minutes, respectively. Game
length also determines the frag/capture limit according to the table below:
Frag/Capture Limit: This is the number of frags (in DM, TDM or Tourney modes) or the
number of ag captures (in CTF or Arena CTF modes) required to end the match.
Map Cycle: This is the group of maps that will be used for this gametype.
Minimum Players: This is the minimum number of players required to start a session
of this type.

Select this option to review the leaderboards for
QUAKE 4
on Xbox Live. This allows
you to see who has accomplished what, including overall points scored, number of
frags, games played, accuracy and special awards won.
To move up in the Xbox Live Leaderboard rankings, you must acquire win points
by being victorious in your ranked online matches. The total number of points that
are up for grabs vary according to game length: Quickies are worth 10, Average
matches are valued at 20 and Endurance matches offer 30 points. The gametype
you’re playing also affects how many points you can earn. The distribution of
points is as follows:
Deatchmatch: Winner takes all.
Team Deathmatch: The winning team divides the points among all team mem-
bers based on that team member’s contributions. The more frags you get for
the team, the more points you’ll receive.
Capture the Flag/Arena CTF: Similar to Team Deathmatch, your captures, as-
sists and defensive effectiveness determine your win points.
Tourney: The winner of the Tourney match takes all the win points.

The
QUAKE 4
party system allows you to invite friends or recent players through the
Xbox 360 Guide to join up in a party. Once a party has been formed, you can all talk
using Xbox Live voice communicators and decide what gametype you would like to
play. The player that invited the others is designated the party leader and initiates
the start game process. After the match is nished, all players are still in the party
and can join another game together until they feel like leaving the party or the party
leader chooses to disband the party.
All invites to parties are done through the Xbox 360 Guide. To invite other players,
bring up the Friends or Players list and select players to invite to your party. Invited
players will receive a message in the Xbox Guide that allows them to join your party.
If they accept a party invite after you’ve already joined another party, match or have
gone ofine, they’ll receive notication that the party is no longer joinable.
