I don't think its that big of a deal, if you can still have LQ + HQ at the same time.

You can't pay full attention to 2 streams at the same time, so just set the current most interesting match do HQ and have the other one open on LQ just to kinda see whats going on.

I can't even get my voucher from MGL to watch the HQ stream. My paypal says I paid for it, but I haven't gotten the email after 7 hours.


I had my code written down on the website, but that is maybe only for members.

I can watch Ultra and mid quality at the same time.

I was honestly buying an HQ pass until I saw this. Why are they doing this? Just dealing with it via IP seems like a more competent way to do it. I'm tired of every SC2 tournament issuing apologies for oversights they should have thought of before the date and promising to fix things in the future. If they are bumps in the road as the broadcast scene fixes it, fine, but how does no one think of this?

I think MLG does the best job, but they should just do what they did in Ohio (letting everyone have access when they messed something up) and just let us access 2 streams here, integrating the "fix" for the next tournament.


Lol, no they shouldn't. The amount of free shit that people expect is outrageous. Really, its not even that large of a problem, I think the reason why its like this is because people that bought dallas HQ passes still have a voucher code for anaheim. In the future they will probably make it IP or account based, but for now deal with it, its not some huge issue. Honestly even if you have both streams open, your only avidly paying attention to one of them. Just choose your favourite match and put that one on HQ. There is absolutely no reason for them to make the HQ free and the only reason people want it is because they have some stupid sense that MLG owes you something. Also, to the people complaining about european times, its an NA tournament.



this. the time of free shit is over.

Classic MLG. People tend to have short memories regarding these events; Columbus was a clear outlier for MLG events.


Seriously? I watched these things since they started doing it via online stream, and besides dallas and the fact that they used octoleak for a while, I don't remember any huge streaming issues.
People really tend to make shit like this a big deal, you can still watch what you are actually watching in HD, and I doubt it will make too much of a difference if the other one on a 2nd screen is run in medium quality, unless you want to fullscreen both it shouldn't matter what so ever, plus it's not like you will be actually able to watch both at the same time anyways.

Is expecting their premium paid product to be as good as the free example (columbus) so unreasonable?

In the short term, HQ+LQ will work for me. I'd like HQ+HQ if I could get it by next event, but this doesn't bug me too much. I only use the second stream to see at a glance whats happening on the other stream, not actually try to multitask and follow two games simultaneously with the casters, etc., so LQ will be good enough. Will be a bit annoying having to swap the quality all the time, but I can deal with it.

Please, don't. Yes, people complain a lot about stuff that doesn't matter, but this is obviously something that shouldn't be the case.



Why cant people just simply sit back and enjoy the event?

I agree. Wait, you can't watch both streams in HD? Wow, this event is worst than the MLG where you couldn't watch at all! I'm gonna go to TeamLiquid and cry my heart out! Watch in one stream in LQ? Why would I ever watch in LQ? I would rather kill myself then do that! Who cares about the fact that Boxer, MMA, and DRG are playing? I can't watch two streams in HD, so I'm just gonna cry a river.

Seriously, they said they were already going to look into it for next MLG:
Between now and Raleigh, we will look into incorporating this functionality into our security procedures, but taking steps to address the issue while the tournament is live runs a high risk of interfering with the broadcasts.


And to everyone crying: what are you gonna do? Not watch MLG? Guess everyone will miss you watching MLG then. I know I have probably induced the rage of many people for my opinions, but seriously: there are worst things in life than having only on stream on HD. Your gonna get your two-stream HD next event, and there is nothing you can do for this event, so your complaining is pointless. It's one thing when you politely point out when something is wrong or unjustified so it comes to the attention of MLG, but it is a completely different thing when you start whining like a 6-year old over a problem that MLG knows about and are trying to fix.

Although I am a bit disappointed that I cannot watch both streams in Ultra I am perfectly fine watching them in Ultra/Medium and hoping that next event I can watch both in Ultra.

What I'm going to do? Ask for my money back, that's what. If you sell something and then don't actually deliver it, that is not fine. When people pay for a product and don't receive it they have a right to complain, what's with all the ass-kissing in here?

If I pay for HQ, I expect it on all their streams. This is pretty similar to "that wasn't an ad, that was a sponsor" from NASL.


Actually, this isn't anything like that. Except that people are overreacting and bitching about both. They've already said they are sorry and are planning to have it fixed for the next tourney. I paid for HQ so I'll just keep whichever stream I'm focusing on more in HD

People are obviously upset, but they just need to take a second to chill out. You can still watch a stream in HQ, its not like you cant even view one in HQ at all. People just need to stop blowing this out of proportion.

Gom just checks IP, it allows you to run several streams at once

Some of us just want to be able to watch both at once, it isent much to ask really.

As long as they start on time and don't have the usual MLG fuck ups I can live with having one stream on LQ tbh. There's lots of things that are worse that can happen, and hopefully they'll fix it to next event.
