They can't get backup or dedicated lines put in months in advance, all they can do is pass their requirements on to the place they're using in advance and press on them the importance of it, which they do. All of them. You can't play SC2 on satellite connections and until someone invents a magic system that provides remote internet with low latency without copper wire or fibre optic cabling (which is pretty unlikely unless wireless coverage, power and infrastructure change dramatically), it's going to happen. The only way around it is to have a dedicated location for all the events where there can be backup lines from different providers, or have it take place in places which put internet at a much higher priority than most and there really aren't that many of those about. This thing is at NYCC where the whole thing has to be shared with like 20-30 game company streams and content uploaders as well as journalists and NYCC staff, so that adds a whole other issue where the internet is available but not enough bandwidth is dedicated, which is rarely going to be as simple as just asking for more. So you are saying that streaming + a couple of journalists needs tons of bandwith ? Ever been at a big LAN in allocated sites? They actually get backup dedicated lines. In dreamhack in sweeden and Gathering in norway they do it. ALso internet for 4,500 downloaders there works =) | ||

It's in Blizzard's own interest. It can't be healthy for your business to have thousands of viewers waiting angrily for a tournament to continue and curse Blizzard for not including LAN. This, a thousand times. Having a room wired for "LAN" is such a simple software adjustment, it is infuriating not to see something along these lines implemented yet. Of course, it seems the problem here is primarily upstream for the broadcast, which is unrelated to battle.net's failings. That CAN be done via sat. truck, which IEM may do next time. | ||

I mean you totally just ignored everything I wrote in order to question the one thing that's literally on the stream right now as the cause of the delay. But thanks for being a condescending asshole who presumes the person they're talking down to has no experience in the thing they've just talked about in detail. | ||

 It's better to start with delay instead of having lags i think. | ||
