i normally pay GSL for a whole year, but now they don't even offer it. i bought my sub though, because the low quality only is ridiculous. kids out of their parents houses are pushin 1080p 60fps without a hitch... this makes me extremely disappointed with the state of starcraft right now. both have literally NO VOD organization. both of them have NO SUPPORT if you have an issue with a payment or anything else like regular feedback. THESE ARE THE TWO GREATEST STARCRAFT ORGANIZATIONS... so, how does http://www.gomexp.com/en/index.gom exist, but we can't have anything at all like the old gomtv.net... this just all makes no sense and is very frustrating... i only want to give them my money and watch the best starcraft in the world. | ||

No, this is what happens when old businessmen don't understand the media they are dealing with. I think it is all Tasteless and Artosis fault, now hear me out first: You are right that GSL never wanted to use twitch, the infrastructure does not cost them anything, but they don't understand how twitch works. They still want to controll everything. What they need are people like Forsen or CohCarrnage, though they don't care about sc2 or need a job, but they get how to make money on twitch. Maybe livibee and Winter, though they are way inferior casters to Tastosis, could stand up to the executives and tell them what needs to be done. This missuse of twitch is throwing away growth, player exposure, reputation and in the end, lots of money. If Tasteless and Artosis hadn't lost all their passion, they would keep developing, their casting is top notch, but they need to become more, they need to learn how to handle the businessside of things. With the tons of memes they create on a daily basis they could be a twitch-goldmine. Instead of filling up time with random chatter they could interact with the twitch chat - by reading out donation message of 2 dollars and above like forsen does.  If they don't step the fuck up, I think they won't have a secure job for much longer, which would really suck  . | ||

It's 2015, after all, I think you can expect a little more than that (given the fact GOM quality has always been kinda off/behind)! | ||

first the new site is much worse than the previous one then they completely mess up the VOD system which was awesome before they cant even take proper care of the VODS on twitch- just look at it. To watch for instance group B from the GSL there's like 6 different videos, all cut at different times. there's a 2 min video with just waiting screen, there's one vod of 3 hours that just cuts randomly in- then there's 3 more VODS that just cut as the games are going. even personal streamers on twitch have much more organized VOD system, it's a terrible mess and painful to browse through and now.. the last drop- the live quality for non subs it's 360p.. at the very best. felt like watching 240p.. a step backwards - look at the other esports all offering great quality for free. between the fact that the viewership numbers of GSL are already patheticly low and this terrible set up i can only foresee them going even lower. i know i won't be watching anymore GSL for a while, probably just catch up proleague when it's on and that's about it | ||

Imagine if this website had GOM.tv/vods/ as its url. This is what we'd like. Meanwhile clash.gg is pretty alright :D | ||

Since I assume people test out how changes will look like beforehand, I guess they were aware about this animated ground > 240p problem and did it on purpose. And I miss the Gom player too. I wonder if people thought it would end up like this when they were complaining about it. And that Korea is starting to only focus on Korea is not something that happened overnight. | ||
