British people are huge on gaming. Console gaming though, it seems to me.

Same for Ireland really, I'm like the only person who plays RTS here. Scientifically proven fact.

The same as other countries with the social stigma, but it seems really strong here. A lot of people won't play games at all for that reason. On top of that, people don't really take it seriously in general.

However for SC2, there are a lot of good UK players so far, so look out for them. We're more than just DeMuslim!

i'm from the UK :D looking at the same problem tbh, I have to compete on the same internet connection as 2 house mates constantly playing CoD on their xbox's. You thought SC2 was repetitive, try CoD for.. well, forever

Hopefully as the game picks up speed, more LAN's will start doing it, I can't think of another popular RTS, Company of Heroes and DoW are both getting on a bit now.

Probs to flicky for being a serious community organiser, I really want Esport in the UK to do well, but flicky is right, there is alot of stigma around PC games in particular.

Hopefully we can SC2 at WCGUK 2011 and have a merry old time.

You should link your topics man - you've got your pride and glory zerg taking on the mighty NTT tomorrow right? I can't believe the OP didn't run a proper search what with all the UK events going on. 4 B&I opens, a playoff, two nationwars, a Flicky Mini, 2 LAN events and a showmatch tomorrow. That's more than most countries.

Can't let the rest of europe get it into their little heads that they are better than us, also demuslim can't play in this so we need someone to do the country proud.

It'll never grow imo, internet too slow, computers too expensive, people brainwashed into cod/fifa too early, and other countries are already doing it better.

Scottish player here, used to be non LAN but competitive CSS player due to inability to travel.

I go to Glasgow Uni, started SC2 start of August. First proper RTS, just about into Diamond.

Definitely up for some inter uni games/lans.

I'm American, but I've lived in the UK for years. Yeah, I also have gotten the impression they don't love PC gaming. Don't get me wrong, I've been in many UK clans, but as a cultural thing in general the british just don't like PC gaming - there's a really massive social stimga attached to being a PC gamer in the UK.

They do love their console gaming though.

I'm not entirely sure (I'm going up to London for uni at the end of the month) but judging from the forum, I think they do have SC2... I hope it has bw too
