From http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/membership "Available at GameStop and Toys "R" Us Stores ONLY Gold Membership is a great way to get access to the best that MLG has to offer. Watch the Live Events in High Definition and receive all the benefits of the GameBattles Premium Access all in one nice $29.99 bundle. This product is only available in stores." According to your advertising, MLG Gold Pass gives you access to "the Live Events in High Definition" So is Arena not a live event? Explain. | ||

I was wondering the same thing when I was in gamestop today. | ||

Fire whoever is writing you these crappy advertisements MLG, I can CLEARLY SEE how someone who bought a gold pass from a store would feel cheated. | ||

Yeah, I'm inclined not to make a huge deal out of this, since this isn't the way it's worded most places they advertise it, but there's no way you can say "meaning this other thing" when there's no reason to actually think it means that when you first read it... | ||

It's pretty clear you're marketing the Winter Arena as part of the Pro Circuit, and even amended the Gold Membership terms after the fact, without any prior notification (or change on parts of the site). Please address this. Pretty upset gold member here. I feel tricked. I find a $5 discount really cheap. I feel like you've shafted the group of people most loyal to you. | ||

Having tried your showcase stream layouts just now, it doesn't feel like it. Even after closing that browser tab, too, something is still hogging the bandwidth. Please doublecheck, it's been a problem all through last year and has been posted about months ago. You also never really let us know what you found, as you posted in that thread there: On October 17 2011 03:25 MLG_Steve wrote: Hey guys - Thank you so much for reporting this issue. We will look into this issue and let you know what we find. Hope you're enjoying the Orlando streams! -- Steven Flenory VP Production @ MLG | ||

But I guess it is just a test. Poll: Will you pay for this? No (3762) Yes (452) 4214 total votes Your vote: Will you pay for this? After reading EGAlex's thread on the subject I am interested in the community response to a slightly different system, please vote in this poll if you did in the last one. Poll: Would you pay if it was 10$ and 5$ for MLG Gold Members? No (1520) Yes (539) 2059 total votes Your vote: Would you pay if it was 10$ and 5$ for MLG Gold Members? Why are so little people going and or thinking about purchasing your pass? Why do you think your business plan will fail? Why did you guys decide to do this without really asking the community or getting feedback (Twitter is a shitty response) How many viewers are you expecting, I'm guessing Assembly will have 7-8x the amount of viewers MLG will have. Why did you come up with a price of $20? Why are you comparing it to a UFC PPV when they show all precard fights on Spike TV in HD with only the main card fights being PPV ( $24.99 a month satelite package includes spike TV) | ||

Not only will I not spend one cent on MLG Arena, I'll stop watching MLG completely, because of this thread. TL is not a fucking press conference. To MLG staff - you can ignore this, but everyone else can still read it. | ||

Frankly, one stream where there was constant action (I don't care if you have to jump into a game mid-way; they do it for the NFL) would be nice. But like I say, really impressed with the preview thing. Price point is still way too high for me, but I may be willing to do some kind of year-long subscription thing in the future. | ||
