MBCGame to shut down? - Page 58

Keep any SC2 vs BW comments out of this thread. This is a thread about Brood War and Esports (Tekken Crash, Special Forces, etc) in general. If you discuss what this means for ESPORTS be sensitive about it.

What we need now probably is someone like Boxer, one who can convince corporate to invest (reinvest in this case, which is no doubt exponentially harder), one who can lead the scene and one who can devote his life into BW.

and what makes you think boxer has time to do all that?

he's got his hands full managing slayers on sc2 and playing.

very, very sad if true (which it seems to be regardless of the latest statements by MBC)

also, very sad for MCBGame Hero, it´s a give the team will fold if MBC becomes a music channel.

This sucks for Korean BW

Actually it's properly spelled ESPORTS.

This is a major bummer to say the least if this occurs. One can only hope that their "internal discussions" lead to the conclusion that in this instance change is bad.

I apologize for asking this question, but why is everyone saying that if BW dies e-sports will follow behind it?

And why would it be bad for the SC2 scene?

I've got an idea, lets put all our efforts into Maverck's bw mod, and make it exactly like BW. Then get them to broadcast SC2BW and eventually everyone will watch that. Screw SC2

I don't believe thats possible. I remember reading somewhere that a problem with recreating BW feel was due to the fact that in BW a unit can only move in 16 different directions whereas in SC2 its pretty much infinite. Theres not point if it looks like BW but doesn't feel like BW.


It's possible that someone would figure it out, or that Blizzard could actually just make a setting for this in the editor. They constantly update the SC2 map/mod editor to have new features that are only useful in very limited circumstances. This could be one of those circumstances.


Yea it doesn't feel like BW at all, that's why we need a super gosu programmer or something to figure it out. I can only hope can I

A major media company in Korea, SC2 is thriving in the west. I'm not trying to be rude or cause any trouble, but I can't see how this would effect SC2 or E-sports in general.

Yea it may be dying in Korea but ESPORTS is thriving throughout the rest of the world
