I don't know what a full story is.

He said something like: at least two more DH's will feature QL 1v1.

twitch gave 15k, 5k was spent on this tournament, leaves 10k for more funz

+ monthly showmatches from different games (dota, edit: some iteration of street fighter /edit, quake..) with prize money
+ UGC
+ one more in March
+ talks with id

lol who gonna play ssf when sfae is out

nice fag comment

i agree

what's ssf and sfae?

ssf = super street fighter 4
sfAE = street fighter 4: arcade edition

ah, thanks, never played, should give it a try

have fun =) north america got a pretty solid scene in both street fighter and marvel vs capcom, just recently canada cup

I'm kinda waiting for the full story since last qkcon : (

so it's just making some wind?

I don't know, but I wouldn't think so

OR

ON LAN ONLINE :D

y

find a way to stream ql while playing in fullscreen with 1 monitor and i'll do it !:D

Twitch.TV agreed to a 20k usd budget, not 15. that was my bad, was thinking after we spent 5k on DHW. so theres another 15k next year to help the community. but plz watch twitch.tv or try and stream ur games, it helps me alot

Monthly Show matches for 500 bucks is confirmed, but the studio isnt built yet, It was ment to start August. plan now is Jan.

More lans or a tour of some kind outside the twitch budget, I need to talk to syncerror, but due to my busy and lazyiness. I havent even sent him an email in 2 months with the tour presentation. but im quite happy with the current support from twitch and some other plans.

guess thats the story.

Damn, painful to read. Good news though and good job at DHW. Thanks.

Thanks for not leaving Quake overboard. Streaming QL ain't easy, especially when you can't play and stream at the same time with one PC. Another major thing I think would help QL is sc2 type ladder. That would lower the noob raping and let them get used to competition.

BTW: I just read reddit sc2 thread. Apparently, loads of people loved it. As someone said " Less you play, more interesting it's to watch".

also, here's what people really thought dh last year from the same site:
http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/ec27c...mup_movie/

Quake is so fast. Honestly too fast to be enjoyable. Unreal I can do...quake is crazy

Quakelive is awful. Used to enjoy it but now it's full of tier slummers and Clan Filth. Why anyone would pay for it is beyond me.

My dear dear ray... oh jesus, im not even gonna write this. You're not worth the time.

keep drinking the cool aid

yeah

#1 - Timmitchell

I enjoyed watching it for a bit, but I don't see myself getting into watching it regularly. I recognize the skill involved and like watching it for a few minutes but it's not something I would really tune in for

#2 - KoolAidMan00

Same here. I was in a Quake clan way back in the day but even I couldn't get into watching more than a few games at a time. I'd much rather play than watch

#3 - 4 are quake players
#5 - blackbeard (probably a dev, just look at his mile long paragraph talking about picnip. I'm sure that's a starcraft player since everyone knows about picnip LOL)

#6 - sobronzeithurts (another hard core quaker), so obvious
#7 - spaceneil8

I don't think a game like QL would draw nearly enough participants for it to be on the circuit.

#8 - firePhantom101
CONGRATS THERE'S YOUR FIRST NON QL PLAYER, borat approves

#9 - mbdjdb

If it was shown as filler in-between Starcraft games, I'd keep watching, but I would never choose to watch it if there's an SC2 game on at the same time.

#10 - sensenmann

Same, and I'm not sure I'd really watch much more than the finals.

#11 - okieant

It would definitely be a risk to MLG. Quake is dying and right now I don't think the number of people who follow quake would make it worth while for MLG

#12 - semi

It also has a super small player pool. It might get boring seeing the same names every event. One thing I really like about sc2 right now is any tournament is really anyones game, and ql just..isnt that anymore.

#13 - decency

The game is way too hard to get into competitively. The top players have been playing the same game on probably the same maps for like a decade, getting up to that level is not an easy task no matter how skillful you are at shooting games. I personally find Quake Live dull because of all of the randomness from spawnkilling and prefiring

#14- bigwig

Thank you. There are good reasons quake is a good, but limited, spectator sport, and the fact that it's been around for so long actually doesn't help. The free kills plus the deadtime once one player has a huge lead are big deals

#15 - accidentus

I think it's more of a skill ceiling thing. The skill ceiling on Quake is so high that only a small handful of players are capable of beating guys like cypher, rapha, cooller.

#16 - jadok

Also, even with high interest from the starcraft folks, no one would be watching, because there always is SC going on somewhere.

#17 - budhabungalo

I'd probably prefer watching Starcraft if I had to choose.

#18 - kawkawkawk

I wouldn't watch. Quake was interesting as a filler because I wasn't familiar with it, but I'd never watch Quake if Starcraft was on, and if it wasn't on the Starcraft stream I wouldn't bother turning it on.

#19 - scizrgaming

it is an extremely complex game so it's hard to get new people to stick with it. Even the movement is unnatural for new players.

#20 - emandyri

I have no interest in watching FPS games and would probably not watch quake for more than a few minutes.

#21 - nrujac

Same. Nothing against the game, I'm just not personally a fan of the genre. Same reason I don't watch baseball or football.

#22 - isaacisaboss (LOLOLOL another adverising fail)

know, i know im stupid..but whats Quake - and what is QuakeLive?

The rest of the comments were made before the quake live final when people were watching it waiting for the starcraft 2 final. Overall, ql had 74% negative feedback from people who watched the final between rapha and cypher.

you are pulling numbers from your ass.

pls make an excel table where ALL the comments are divided neg and pos and links to threads where you got the information AND don't leave out any additional threads which might not suit your argument.

uhu, look below isaacisaboss. Those comments were all made before the final. Only quakers would have commented before that since the majority of the sc2 viewers hadn't even seen any ql footage yet unless you think they're tuning in to watch the first couple rounds of the quake live tournament....

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
ql is doomed

i'm pretty sure it can't fail any harder than it already has

DONT SAY THAT

dude :/

Jesus 2GD saves!

2gd can turn people's whine into whisky.

+ soda

not bad

just like to say Thanks for everything your doing and have already done

did the ql viewer numbers from dh meet expectations?

I'm going to visit twitch.tv every day, play some stream just like that even if I won't watch it. Hope it'll help quake.

I ask girls on justin.tv to show boobs, dunno if that helps though.

2GD for president !!!!!

I'm king of Sweden (c) 2GD xD

HoQtv will be moving over to Twitch TV

Great work as usual 2GD!

Thankyou

Twitch.tv <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
