Team managers, event organizers and journalists are encouraged to apply to participate in the event. Interested parties should send an abbreviated resume and an explanation of why they should be part of the Congress using the contact form provided on our web site. We also have 250 seats in the Auditorium where you can attend to see the panel’s live. Tickets are currently available while supply lasts. In reality every big shot should have received an invite. Then again, this is for all games and the reality is we need a Summit for SC2 alone to try and tie up all the loose ends. | ||

Robert will not disappoint. Also, what is Heaven Media? Edit: wow there was actually some real discussion in this panel | ||

Too intrusive imo. Maybe on the loading screen is okay. | ||

A comparison with the major sports is not really relevant unless you envision SC2 lasting several decades and new technology cycles. | ||

I think done right it's pretty cool. Like logo's and buildings without making it hard to see what it is and such... | ||

Do you feel these are too intrusive? + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://www.leddisplaysale.com/images/Advertising-led-display-351.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://u.jimdo.com/www38/o/s7d6a93d924a03bc8/img/i69991774b312fdf5/1308903664/std/miami-masters.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://a34.idata.over-blog.com/600x450/0/11/26/66/pr-sentation/chicago/71-match-chicago-bulls-et-jazz.jpg) It happens in every sport, be it events advertising around the court or teams advertising on their gear, but the digital medium largely removes those kinds of external factors making a significant decrease in exposure for sponsors right now. Valve managed to put banners into the game without causing too much distraction and I think sc2 can easily do the same + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://esportsbusiness.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/wolvesdota2.jpg) | ||

Video Paul: Why not make SC2 free to play? And multiplayer surely is the smaller element of the game. Most people play it for the single player, they'll pay the money to buy the game in the first place. Why not just make the multiplayer part of it free to play? Dustin: It's definitely an option for us at some point down the road to make that decision. I think we'd want to make it when we knew we weren't going to do any damage to our ecosystem. I can imagine scenarios where, you know, I go to play a game on battle.net and I think I'm having a good time with you and then it turns out you have only half the units because that's what you bought. And while it might be a little bit fun for me to beat you down when you don't have access to some of the toys that you should have... Paul: That might give me a chance of beating you. Dustin: Yeah, I don't know if that would really be that much fun, right? Like we could certainly do that. We could obviously offer, you know, the races individually for a fee, the whole race at once. And that might be the way for us to go down the road. I don't think there's any reason why we wouldn't except we want to make sure we do it properly, we don't make any mistakes and that we, you know, are supporting the fans the way we're supposed to. | ||
