if it was a stable as MLG/IEM have been(with only minor hickups) then i would concider it, but seeing people who payed good money for it, just so they can't even watch it live and have to find the hidden livestreams is not very motivating

tbh i would rage like no tomorrow if that happened to me and i payed for it

I'm awake until stupid hours anyway so I just watch them all live.
Have hardly missed a match over all 3 seasons now and haven't paid anything.

I'm not opposed to supporting GOM and the GSL, But I've heard too many horror stories about the stream to pay for it.

I will buy if there is gonna be matches starting earlier than 19 just to check VoDs like I did for season 2. But since I can't use the GomTV player because of the 0x0000071 error and they don't have any support for paying customers I won't buy it for the live stream

It worth the money!

There are some great games in HQ! (Sets 2~7)

Also, think that you will be contributing somehow with the StarCraft community by supporting GOMTV itself

Just save the money from the McDonalds and buy it! :D

I bought s1 and got s2 and s3 for free due to whatever screw up earlier on. I'm not buying a ticket ever again. I'm "watching" currently. About 2 fps, disconnects every 2 - 3 minutes. Single worst stream I've ever watched, consistently. I cannot advise against buying this more, even if you pass their 'bandwidth test' as I did easily.

Now that GSL 3 is on.any european who had lag last season that can confirm whether EU stream improved or if its still shit? I cant do the network check for some reason, just keeps on checking, checking and checking.

If its good I'll buy the ticket right away.

I't strange for me. Can run for periods of up to 1/2 hour smoothly then just fail at low fps and constant dc's for an hour. Can only watch on the LQ stream, which is strange as surely there are less on the HQ stream.

I may gladly switch to a re-stream soon, as I've tried the legit way and the supportive way but if I'm watching a laggy game, then it skips to Artosis & Tasteless mid game as the stream sorts its life out and I've missed 1/2 of a great game it gets annoying.

I've bought a ticket every season for GSL. It's very worth it in my opinion since I always can't stay up late to watch it.

I didn't buy a ticket and haven't in the past - don't have the money unfortunately. Plus there are only a few players I really want to see and I don't mind watching the SQ stream for those select players.

Bought season 1, 2 and 3. I normally just watch the HQ vods though as im not really around when the games are streamed. Avoids any problems with streaming I guess

I bought it despite being from EU with a rarely functioning HQ stream. It's definitely worth it just to be able to watch the VODs when I get home from work.

Europeans, are we getting better support on our lagfest that s1 and s2 has been?
How is live HD for europeans now in s3? Would love some feedback on it.
