Just to be clear, you have to click on the "Voting is closed...View League Players" graphic. This takes you to the purchase pass option. Apparently they don't have a single person that can make a "Buy the Season 1 Pass" graphic and put it on the website. EDIT: apparently this just got fixed, or my browser was showing old content.
Start date?
InControl says April 11. #NASLTV says April 12. Who is correct, the official spokesman or the twitter account? It boggles my mind that NASL still has so many unanswered questions when the first games are just one week away.

Watching sc2 is getting increasingly expensive $10/month for GSL, $5/month for GSTL, $25/3 months for NASL.
Thats already about $23/month for all the best leagues and its still very early days, I suspect the market is going to become a little too saturated with content.

Download VODs and swap with someone else who is subscribing to another service? ;D

So your recommendation is "steal it"?

yeah on a students income you really kind of have to choose 1 league to follow <.<

I just split the subscriptions with friends (similar above comment). I rather watch the best games here and there...
i can only imagine that the nasl free stream/vods is going to be good enough for a lot of people.

Free streams... I imagine there will be TL coverage... No problems.
Yeah stealing content sounds bad. 'Splitting' much better lol ;D

Its working together to a cheaper alternative

I will wait and see how they manage to organize/stream the tournament.

I'm going to wait and see.
Being on European timezone I'm concerned about the restreaming times so the VODs might be best option.

Both iNc and NASL are right. It starts April 11th technically, but the first broadcast will be on the 12th.

I wonder how are they gonna deal with Stream problems, hope there wont be so much lag and stream drops as MLG...
And "free" quality was sooo bad at MLG, hope it will be a slightly better at this
|
im using my MLG refund money to help pay for NASL. Im kind of glad i get that back to pay for this. I will give them the benefit of the doubt for this first season since its run by actual SC2 gurus.
|
I'm sure InControl just learned what NOT to do to host a large-scale tournament by being at that monstrosity known as MLG Dallas. I hope he won't mess up, at least make the stream watchable and let the high quality work.
But as the first major SC2-only tournament in the West, it may be a little buggy. But this is definitely a big step for e-sports, and I'm glad to support it.
|
I bought a ticket because I want the NASL to do well and I want to support the growth of e-sports. $25 for a whole year of games is dirt cheap. You end up paying $10-15/mo for GSL matches, so this is a steal.

Justin.tv is the streaming/vod side afaik so I imagine that part should be pretty stable and of pretty decent quality even for the free stream. Their paid stream is 1080p (supposedly) which is epic if it actually delivers that.

It is 25dollar for 3 months. Still worth it of course.

EDIT: nvm, DO NOT FORGET TO GIVE in the CODE!!

Check your bank statement it should say $20.00
also I'm sure it is only for season one so don't get misguided by the "25.00 / year" still alot of content IMO

I probably won't buy a season pass, but I will happily support NASL by watching the live stream and subject myself to all the advertising.

Who in their right mind would pre-pay for an event when there is practically no published information available about it a week before it starts?
