Anyone else casually tuning into other esports titles just to see which model wins out in the end?

The monolithic vs the Laissez-faire vs circuit etc.

It's kinda interesting how different each esport operate.

Since the beginning, except SMITE

Each game can function in its own way. Tennis, Soccer, America football and function on different systems. The key is the each Esport has too address the flaws in that system and not just ignore them. Dota will be fine, but the issues of the team shuffles and general instability do need to be worked on.

I think if you do it the SC2 way, you die.

Any other method works with either gentle nudges

It's definatelly not the ESPORTS model that defines wether a game dies. Certainly that wasn't the case for SC2.

All you need for SC2 to succeed is “passion”. That is what I have read and the lack of passion is why the game isn’t number 1.

And the game is dead when WCS stops, which is pretty good. Other games got way less.

Tower Defense games need to end.

I must have watched my brother play those to death in WC3. I fucking can't stand it.

Kingdom rush is also a free online flash game if you want to try it out.

I beat it when I had my last "binge on flash games on kongregate and earn all the achievements" session like a year ago

The game is dead when people stop playing it. It's hard to call a game like WoT dead when it probally still has a shitton of players and makes a shitton of money even with terrible models for competitive and casual gameplay.

WoT has a pretty solid casual player base - they just go around p2w and have fun cause there life is happy and nice and dont have to fill in a void of their life with an all consuming compeittive video game because they weren't good enough in high school to play sports or be popular so they just stayed in played videogames all day and got really good at them and started playing competitivelly to make them feel like they were doing something with their lives but in reality they were just playing videogames and weren't even top 100 or top 1000 in the world just as low level as they were in highschool

In short, WoT, slow mans FPS with the ability to pay for better bullets.

Also Comeh needs a vacation.

Comeh is always grumpy when posting.

Comeh posts mostly when he is at work.

Conclusion: Comeh needs a vacation from work, which makes him grumpy. Further backed up by Sn0_Man's statement, as he was on vacation and was pleasant.

you cant play csgo alone at all...if you thought solo sucked for dota, at least you can respawn.

hows the hacking situation these days...too many aimbots and wall hacks last I played around release made it unenjoyable.
