Don't even get me started on their ridiculous rule-sets for the games they play. I wouldn't be surprised if they ban cheeses or rush strats or something equally lame if they decide to take on SC2.


What do you mean ridiculous rule-sets? The rules for Halo 3 are only because Bungie messed up on the game a bit and they limit the weapons to the ones that are actually used at a competitive level. I can't think of any other games where they tinker with things, so I doubt Starcraft 2 will have anything like that.

The Halo 2 rules were garbage. It's been so long I barely remember but they banned the sword? They had some really retarded variants only snipers on colossus?

Oh and what was it, starting weapon was SMG? On coag? LOL

Halo 3 I don't know anything about 'cause that game is garbage and watching "MLG Pro's" play make me cringe at wasted shots and poor play. Way too many bugs/exploits/glitches/problems to take that game seriously. I am aware though that MLG has been getting better, but the company is still pretty pathetic from my point of view (as uneducated and outdated as it is).

banned sword? snipers only? SMG start? this must have been in like 04 or something because those were most definitely NOT the rules during the height of halo 2's popularity. i don't see how you can think a company is pathetic when you have already admitted you are uneducated on it's policies.

simply ridiculous

A company that starts poorly and even today allows cheats like BXR couldn't possibly have a good/positive track record.

What do you mean "even today" allows cheats like BXR? Halo 2 isn't played anymore so that argument is completely invalid not to mention the fact that you are calling the BXR a cheat is highly debatable and it definitely brought a skill requirement to playing H2. That would be like saying using hold lurkers shouldn't be allowed because the game developers didn't intend it.

As for your "a company who starts poorly couldn't possibly have a good/positive track record argument," how can you possibly view things in life that way? You don't believe people/organizations can change to make themselves better?

Everything you have said so far has either been 1) incorrect or 2) ridiculously biased. Please take a moment to actually research MLG before you go bashing it because I think MLG picking up SC2 could be really great for the American starcraft scene and there's no reason to blindly hate them.

Everyone knows the only weapon in Halo is the Battle Rifle.


I did find that what they did with CoD games to be absurd, they took out much of the gameplay to make it 'balanced'.

The idea of having certain units/abilities/strategies banned by an external group because they don't trust Blizzard's ability to balance doesn't sound very appealing to me as a viewer, because I want the game I play to be the same game the pros play.. I've read the book "playing to win" so I'm a hardcore "if it's possible it's legal" type guy heh.

Ah that came out wrong I just mean in games yeah, competitive games I can't stand when somebody loses and they're like "oh, that's so overpowered you can't use that, etc etc"

Here's some pages I'm referring to

http://www.sirlin.net/ptw-book/cheating.html
http://www.sirlin.net/ptw-book/how-far-should-you-go-to-win.html

Sirlin refers to "tournament legal" a lot and I guess in MLG's case they would set the rule, but I still don't like the idea of having big adjustments or balancing rules. If there are game breaking bugs they can ban those I guess but otherwise I'd be less than overjoyed.

Of course he's talking about games. The book he's referring to is here http://www.sirlin.net/ptw . It outlines the philosophy of someone trying to win at a game (using the rules of the game, not by cheating and so on). The things in there are mostly obvious, but if you show it to enough people, you'll be shocked how their mindset conflicts entirely.

We have a winner here, Coagulation was never an MLG map, every map started with a BR no secondary, and most of MLG's rules are based on the input of the pros. Now you should stop bashing a company unless you either; play under contract for them and know these things, or actually attend an event and see for yourself. Don't blindly try bashing MLG because some youtube video isn't up on their first attempt at doing something like this. At least they are actually showing interest and willing to bring us a show match, because I didn't see any other company jumping the gun.

MLG is a reputable E-Sports company. I played Halo a lot, and the rulesets were the most balanced. I also played with guys who went to MLG events all the time, and the community for Halo MLG, is as big or bigger as the community for SC in the foreign scene.

As to that, I'm glad they are picking up SCII. Don't you guys want SCII to take off in NA? Well, through MLG it has a good shot, and not to mention whatever else SCII pops up on. MLG has corporate sponsors so its not like it's some small time know-nothing.

Anyways, looking forward to the matches on YT. This is their first foray into this, so be a little patient and don't bite the hand that feeds :p

The bitching and moaning in this thread makes me want to puke. In the first post by itmeJP he said they were expecting hiccups as this was the first time they were covering StarCraft 2. He didn't say it would be up very soon and to wait. Chill out.
