sigh twitch.tv again. Is it wise to pay for a higher level that is inconsistent anyways? Then again, the paywall might help bring down the stutters. Hope it keeps out people properly. I will probably decide on the final day.
Someone call down the Thunder?

Will you providing $5 subscribers with any ADDITIONAL CONTENT/ACCESS and/or other streams other than the 720p and 1080p stream quality? What will be the VOD format for this event? VODs available instantly after each match?

This pricing scheme is so smart. You can have my $5. Take it. You've earned it for not being overly greedy like some other organizations.

Congrats MLG. They took the first step and now the IPL follows suit. Of course the prices vary but in essence it's the same exact thing.

I'm not so sure about your HD streaming. Things stutter horribly on your stream even at the lowest quality. And you guys stream from San Francisco and I'm down here by Los Angeles. Yet, a guy like TotalBiscuit can stream from the UK and can stream HD to me from his house. I hope you have a preview stream up that's playing a rerun of something before I take the dive.

Seems pretty clear that IGN is strategically announcing this on the heels of the Winter Arena in order to contrast themselves with MLG. The timing of this announcement is NOT a coincedence. It's funny because NASL, IPL and MLG have tried to portray themselves in the past as friends who don't want to compete with each other. Clearly that is not the case however and IGN is perfectly willing to undercut MLG. This is cutthroat capitalism at its best lol.

I will certainly be paying for this as I did for MLG. I just get the feeling that the vast majority of people will opt for a free 480p stream when you offer it to them. In the same way that MLG was basically asking for charity with its $20 price point, IGN is basically saying "we know you're perfectly fine with 480p but throw us 5 bucks plz."

Not quite. If you paid nothing to MLG, theoretically you did not get to watch (of course, there were bugs and restreams, etc), whereas with IPL, if you paid nothing, you can still watch, just not in high quality.

sounds like a fun event, hopefully they can raise the bar some more like they did with IPL3. They'll have an event under their belt, so it'll be interesting to see how successful and well run it is. They went back to the old pricing model I see, probably because they don't have to worry about making a profit as much as MLG does, so they can still try to give viewer the best possible deal.

Eh, I don't really care about HQ. I'll be watching in standard quality, even though the $5 sounds like a great deal. At least it's better than MLG's pricing.

It's not even remotely the exact same thing. In fact, in essence it's the exact opposite thing.

That, and respectfully, IPL kicks the shit out of MLG in terms of features and content.

Usually don't bother to shell out money for HD streams, but I'll be dropping $5 on this one to support IGN. Sounds like a really great tournament with a ton of awesome content ahead, and the previous IPLs never disappointed me (outside of some ugly layouts ).

thanks ipl, letting people view for free, unlike the ridiculous price at mlg. glad that they will earn some more money with the $5 subscription. i don't really care about it, since i watch on 480 or even 360p anyways, i prefer absolutely no lag to pretty pictures (i play on low quality settings too).

Exactly. Some people are just retarded. IPL will get my $5, groups look great so far.
