wrong thread. lol. awesome pictures anyways.

Wow, FXO seems interesting.
|
This house is impresive :O I hope this is help the team FXO fighting ~~~

Everyone with a basic intelligence who spend 5 mins looking up FXOpen should be pretty sure that the decision to set up this house in Malaysia is the right decision. Why would someone do this if it would have a) lag issues, b) was cost ineffective or c) a bad location at all.
i am absolutely amazed that FXOpen invests in eSports like this. so cool!
damn i need to get a job in eSports somehow !

Well, I'd like to add a little bit about the "e-sports" scene here. DotA is actually very popular here, every young male in Malaysia knows or plays the game, and we've held big DotA LAN tournaments with European and Chinese teams participating before. Though it might be harder for SC2 to take off here considering its price and how there's no way to pirate it (to play online).
Lol good point about the pirating. I remember Garena XD.
Garena is like a platform for pirates games, and yea i don't think SC2 can replace DoTA anything time soon, atleast for the 2-3 years in Malaysia. But FXO do create a nice fresh start for E-sports scenes in Malaysia. It's always nice to see something other than DotA. And it's gonna encourage more SEA pro-gamer to step up into the international scene. It's always nice for fans like me to catch some live events in your home country =p

Gotta love what FXOpen is doing for the community!
|
Nice!! I'm officially jelly!
|
That's not a house it is a god damn mansion o.0
|

|

In all honesty It's not about the house. This only shows that FXOpen is taking care of their players. To have a manager that goes to this length for his players means more than a fancy house with a swimming pool. If anything this house will buff the loyalty from their players inspiring them to perform even better A happier crew makes the income better. Just look at google, It's one of the most desirable work offices in the world right now, and they get the best employees because they take good care of them.
This house is a great investment and this very thread is a PR stunt from their side as I bet that many of the very very top notch koreans and NA/EU players are tired of sharing a dirty flat crammed together in a small space will consider trying out for FXO.
If anything it shows that pro houses doesn't have to be a small dark flat with sleeping bags and im sure we'll see some changes in the living conditions of the pro's from now on.

Awesome house. Looks amazing. Really nothing bad to say. Interested in knowing why FXO would sponsor an e-sports team. Did it really seems like a legitimate use of advertising money or is it more a pet project / interest of management (maybe someone likes games?).
I can see the connection though between gamers and trading currency online, especially since they usually like gaming experience in traders. I wonder if anyone has actually used FXOpen because of team FXO.

This must be the most awesome teamhouse, I mean it seems the best looking.  FXO players should perfom really good ^^

freaking amazing team house

Easy answer. We love games and love SCII. Just like FXOpen's Drift racing sponsorships, it is part business and part fun because we like those things. E-Sports is an industry with huge potential so it's not just money wasted. Brand awareness for FXOpen aside, esports can stand on it's own as a money making venture and what better way to make money than by doing what you enjoy.

yep house looks amazing. but dont forget malaysia is cheap in those terms, having a householder or getting such a house, with a good salary from EU/NA you can afford such a house in malaysia with ease.
anyway, who wants to live in malaysia ? please :p
|
You should do some before and after pictures, like, this is what it looked like before, this is what it looks like 6 months after progamers started living here

Awesome House. Thats Pretty Sick
