Very awesome news. It is interesting to see how the Halo players react to all of the StarCraft love MLG is giving us. Once the prize pool is a bit bigger for the non championship event it will become a very complete league. One step at a time MLG you are almost there!
Cbus HYPE! actually the Halo players/crowd love StarCraft, its just that the SC ppl hate on em lol. A few quotes from Halo players on mlg forum "starcraft this.......starcraft that........what about halo? seriously, mlg you guys are selling out. how about you start getting things right for halo with settings and maps. get things right with cod by getting it on xbox. seriously selling out. " "thats not fair at all. halo made mlg. without halo mlg wouldnt exist. sc2 is a new addition and its already getting so many upgrades. upgrades that halo should've gotten years ago. how can you expect growth for halo, without making any adjustments?" I am not sure they feel exactly the way you think they do. Well from those quotes I would say they are jealous. Obviously SC2 is growing fast and Halo is not. Uniqe views should be around atleast 1-1,5 million for Colombus, with Dreamhack Stockholm inv. having +450 000 viewers. I wonder how many will be watching halo. The right question is how can you watch halo? It has zero observation value. No observer mode just jumping from guy to guy showing hits from beyond visual range with targets automarked. Its pretty fun and fast paced not so much for Reach, but H2 and H3 were amazing spectator sports. Especially with clutch headshots and kills. The ability to make huge come backs made it very impressive too. Reach however is a bit meh and slow paced. did you just call halo fast paced? wtf............ For consle gaming yes. It of course hasn't got anything on Quake.
that statements says it all. halo 3 was painful to watch. so boring, with the exception of onslaught ctf. it certainly wasn't "fast paced"
back onto sc2, hopefully mlg delivers. it would be a huge downer if they still have stream problems for cbus

Yeah, Reach sucks but Halo CE, H2 and to some extent H3 were quite entertaining. Starcraft 2 is still way more awesome though

Arguably the only slow game of Halo 3 was TS Pit which did at times come to a standstill...
But yeh I really can't wait for Cbus gonna be an amazing event, I hope they do some Tri casts or the Plott brothers together :O.

Nerd chills all over my body as I imagine Tasteless descending upon the hapless players and stealing their ladder points.
I've heard rumblings of this via vague Twitter messages. It's awesome that those rumors have come to fruition and are proven true.

CE was - and still is - awesome. People still lan it regularly almost 10 years on.

this isnt going to work at all. unless they fly over artosis' ahr stylist too.
|
Best caster line up ever let's pray the god of internet so the stream will be flawless.
|
Excited for Cbus now. It's gonna be a good year for Starcraft :D. Good work MLG for putting this together for us.
|
|
|
Oh man, this will be freakin' legendary!
|
Well, I'm going to have to fucking drive 9 hours now. Thanks Dan and Nick. Obviously I'm excited, and now I have to go, there is no other way. See you guys there.
|
Yay, two streams. One of the biggest problems with last MLG (not counting stream problems) was that often times the commentators were waiting for a game to join, and so they had to fill the time with banter. With two streams this isn't too bad for the viewers, as it's way more likely for at least one team to be showing a game.
A bit off-topic I guess, but it'll be awkward to compare quality of casting with the two duo's: Day[9]/DJWheat & Tastosis.
|
This might make me buy a pass now
|
What an awesome surprise. It'll be nice to have Tastetosis back in the US for little bit.
|
I'm not sure if MLG is aware, that now with Tastosis they will have +20k more viewers.
Better prepare some cool Internet Connection for streaming ;D
|
I would like to see the plott brothers cast together.

We made a judgement call on this to wait until we've announced the improvements to our stream delivery plan.
That's coming soon as well as a gift from us to the fans to thank all of you for sticking with us...
