I hate how all of a sudden there are 10 different stream choices on the On Air section. Fuck, so many noob casters who miss important shit and just keep plugging their twitter accounts.
Can't we have casters only from major esport sites?!

Guise is a deliberate mispelling. But otherwise yeah, we're pretty lazy about our homonyms.

Can't we have casters only from major esport sites?! there was once a day where there were only iccup and GLHF to get our sc2 tournaments coverage.. but with more population came more streamers and tournaments. not saying its bad, just there's such a small chance of a good content/quality stream to catch now that the dissapointments come hard and often.

Easy fix: One/two streamers. No observers aside from that. Maybe a ref.

Somebody please fix the title of this thread... he's not banned from 2 weeks of ESL Nordic, RIGHT?
|
i was watching tarson vs bandit i think earlier and there was lag issues with tesla slowing down the game, tarson said out then admin said out plz your ruining the game and tesla simply said. No I'm a caster, such bm shit respect the players PLZ
|
This is why games should be casted from replays, just like the good old days
|
I completely and utterly agree with Morrow here, the lag was unbearable and it ruined the last cup. And it's purely down to the fact that there were too many streamers and observers. Now I don't believe this has anything to do with bnet being unable to support that many in game it's clearly because more people observing increases the risk exponentially of someone having internet issues, especially when they're streaming the game.

Yes but do you REALLY want LAN?

The point is bnet should be set up so obs have no affect on the players connection.

I think neither Morrow nor the ESL are to blame. They are a little bit involved - but not the real culprits. - Morrow was correct in speaking up & demanding a lag free game. He was wrong in just starting with his favourite caster and leaving the main ESL caster out. - The ESL was wrong in allowing so many casters in the game.
But do we really want the ESL to say: "Only OUR caster. No one else"? That caster would be Take. He's casting in German and the stream requires octoshape. I personally dont have a problem with that setup - but other people who i.e. dont understand German might see this in another way. And no - some random stream in English doesnt benefint them at all. No ad revenue. No sponsor money. They dont even know the amount of people who watch that other stream. If the quality of the stream is good enough it might be even detremental to their own premium stream, because of the "competitor".
So allowing other casters (other languages) into their tourney is something we should be glad for. Because it means more content for a lot of people.
But who is to blame? Well - what about the retarded casters who dont leave? In my opinion only they can and should be blamed. "But I have 100 viewers" - How about you tell them to go to TL and watch the same stream that 3000 other people watch? I honestly cannot understand those people. "You lag - out" "But I stream for my 20 friends" ....
They should just do some random tests. Players/Admins should call out an observer to leave. If he does - he may cast another tournament. If he doesnt no more tourneys for you.

Except with their implementation this might not be possible.
The easy way is to just tell people they can't cast if the tourney has too many.

Don't get bothered so much by insignificant things otherwise you'll end up being angry at everything.

Can I get a list of the 14 casters who refused to leave the laggy game? I'd like to see this list of absolute jerks with no respect for the players.
Whatever Morrow did by starting a game is bad blah blah blah. Being an observer, causing lag, then refusing to leave when a player is specifically asking you to is beyond rude to me. You're basically deliberately ruining the game.
I want the list of these jerks!
|
Why aren't more tournaments cast from replays? It's kind of silly to cause players to lag just because you want viewers.
