Hello, im all for the success of the QL initiative. Im pretty sure ive spent more time in my life playing Quake than anything else except for sleeping. QL has many strong points, wont repeat what we already know.
Now, if theres is something truly important for a competitive platform like QL its proper coverage of the big events. Big events, big personalities, etc, is such an important aspect. Yet here were, year 2010, the most important event yet of QL, and what is the only option? A stream that so far has sucked.
Sorry to all the people there at CeBIT, i suppose you want it to succed, but excuses have a limit. Why not one channel per game, i mean how much more would be the cost of having one channel per game? Theyre not that many games, and it would make such a big difference. StuidoA? StudioB? Cmon its so TVish, so 80ish. If all studios are having matches of the other games, repeat matches, make interviews, build hype, you get it.
I wont touch the "DDoS" part cause sincerely, an event of that caliber should at least have redundant connections, managed switches and direct support from the ISPs, to name a few. Those are all fails by design, prior to the "DDoS" issue.
And finally, i know its old but, where the flying fsck is GTV id? 1 year of open beta, major event, and no GTV? Its such a great concept, has so many advantages for the seasoned player. I dont want to be tied to unprofessional coverage, i want to spray man!
It would be a good thing even for streams, i mean when theres GTV, stream coverage has competition. Give us a proper service, and we will enjoy the added depth of player cameras, shoutcasting and all, its a nice idea if done properly, i would be more than happy to pay for such service. But why are we doomed to miss games, get buffered and watch CS due to subpar coverage? Basics first, geniuses.
Im truly sorry but its a sin and those in charge are going to hell.
