Nope. Just was wondering if the tournament was being played with the update or not. Some q4 tournaments were played with older patches when new patches came out right before the tournament started, so I thought there was a possibility that would be the case for this tournament.

Meh... where one plopped out of what puss matters little to me. I can appreciate all gamers everywhere, and let the games themselves to the talking for me.

For example: My favorite players include:
1. Vo0
2. Toxic
3. Av3k
4. Rapha
5. DaHanG
6. Cooller
7. Cypher

I can appreciate a style of play, more than the success of the player.

Personally I would love the Asians to start playing this game hardcore. I have no doubt, they would be on top. I would love to see what kind of styles and such they bring to the game. They find the the craziest ingenuity where one least expects it.

voo is your favorite? he has nice movement to watch but he makes so many mistakes and plays pretty carelessly, he got lucky to even get to the playoffs. no idea how you would rate him over av3k, cooller, cypher, noctis in terms of a good spectator pov

That's what I would like to know. Apparently these types of things are a big secret.

Anecdotal evidence would suggest that his mouse has not changed, because in his config his mouseaccel/yaw/pitch/sens are the same as previous events. If this is in fact the config he is using during the tournament then he is likely using the same mouse, as I would imagine that switching mice would require some adjustment to sensitivity settings.

I suppose the official verdict on the xai is that it is a bad and overpriced mouse. It has some 'positive accel' on it that cannot be changed. There's no clear scientific evidence of this though, or how this accel compares on other mice, and at what dpi.

It's obvious to me that nobody cares about this kind of thing though so I'm not holding my breath. If I could afford to buy/test these things I would do it, but it's likely no one would even read it. Most people don't place any importance on mice or configs, or even pro-gaming event coverage.

For me personally I have been sitting behind a pro playing the winning game of an event and I said to myself, wow, check out that aim and those winning results. How he do that? I became curious about all aspects of the game.

when kinzu was released some cs players used it for the whole tournament, but on the finals they changed it to their regular ones lol. Advertising trick.

maybe rapha will change to wmo on the final vs dahang

edit: couldn't find a picture of him showing his mouse so meh, bad pictures. By looking mouse cord is wmo.

The whole service from ESL has been a disaster so far, no WoW games shown whatever because of some shitty tournament UI that wasn't even updated to go with this weeks patch for WoW, and then not showing DaHanG vs rapha? really dissapointed.

My dear Slasher. I am sure that you can understand why the games were played at the same time, so I will skip why they were.

Out of those matches we preferred to show the "event-turning" ones rather than the "oh, both are in the playoffs anyway" match. It was a conscious choice and I think everyone on the crew would have done the same again.

No shit right? He had that duel (it would have been a lackluster finish, but you're looking to win here) and said 'fuck it.' He let it go into OT against a very stacked Vo0, with zero timings on any items. He basically handed that win over to him.

Ah man I was at the event and went as we waited for some of the matches to come up we went for some"refreshments" and when we get back 30 minutes later all of the games had been played!

Even the screens at the event weren't showing dahang vs rapha. We had to huddle behind raphas pc :p luckily he was by the spec area

A lot of times nobody manning the PC thats speccing (every match we'd have to yell for them to click spec or w/e usually missing first spawn) And no big screen, just a bunch of little ones with no ingame sound and lots of network lag spikes. Disappoining at the effort in this area :( I hope the players are having a smoother time...

It was a fun time though :)

You were more than welcome to request any game you wanted and the problems were solved rather quickly as far as I could tell. And yes, we would prefer to have a big stage with games as well, but that's not always possible.

woohoo Vo0 at world championship! yay yay!
Atleast 1 dutchy there :)

Oh and dahang beating rapha nice..., but we've seen that before and now he's probably gonna have to do it again in the finals. I think rapha will take it...

Oh and nice interviews done by Carmac. Very nice!

like rapha says himself, beating him in the group stages really means nothing. in almost every recent tournament, he's lost in the group stages but wins the whole thing ultimately.

i need help identifying a song they played. i've heard it many times before but it's been many years since the last time. i think i should know who made it, but can't remember and internet is no use either.

they played it sometime after vo0 - griffin match, fell asleep during it and the song was playing when i woke up (around 02:20 german time if i remember right). it's a (probably well known classic) drum and base song with a chick singing pretty much all the way through and the chorus goes "(something)(something)(something)(pause)bulletproooof". i remember how the melody goes but can't remember any of the other lyrics and it's driving me nuts, please help.

If this gets solved I seriously want to know how cause I've had them for forever, reinstalling firefox, ql plugin etc dont work and there's a 100 page long thread on the quakelive forums, so if you manage to do it please share

If you're hiding in t9 and up by 1 when there's 5 seconds left and your opponent doesn't know where you are do you
a) Move away from the hiding spot
b) Stay for 5 more seconds

If you're leading by one on dm13 with 30 seconds left when you got 100/0 and your opponent has a stack at ra do you
a) Drop down from rl and spam grenades
b) Take the rl, take 2 ya's and hide

Difficult choices indeed

Sander, do me a favor. Never stop playing games. You are easily the best demo in town. Win or lose.

I'm 31 years old, and I'm giddy about watching this shit.

There is a precision of thought, decision making and movement with Vo0 that is quite distinct from all other players. It's just a joy to watch.

DaHanG - good job. Playing well. Now fucking win a lan damn it!

DKT - everybody has bad days. No big deal. GGs.

Rapha - you best start playing some more, or Av3k will rape you. :) Good showing though.

Vo0 and Av3k have the two best styles in Quake IMO. Cooller - as good as he is - comes in a close 3rd.

moving on to the other demos that I still have to watch.

after watching a few noctis demos I have to say he's got the smoothest movement I ever witnessed.

But dahang also has a nice crazyness to his gameplay, makes for interesting games. Most players would back away from a fight, dahang says "Bring It !!" :)

Enjoyable idd.

Can't wait for the final.

Dahang moved his mouse quite a bit while playing. He's probably using 900 dpi which would translate to approximately 45cm/360.

That would actually correspond well to how he turns in game.

re: DaHanG's demos -- in the Carmac interview he said the patch helped his lg -- after watching all the Gillz/VoO demos, the one weap that stands out for me: LG! I'm gonna start calling it "sawed-off" LG!
In the Gillz's matches, his lg was just locked on and considerably quicker disintegrating Gillz.
In the VoO matches, though VoO's lg>Gillz lg, DHG's lg just piled on noticeably more lethal than past demos.
So for DaHanG, update=modded lg aka "sawed-off" lg

They must have been watching a different Vo0 than us. He played so poorly not only against Chance but vs Dahang also.

Really getting the feeling Dahang hasn't become that much stronger but everyone else was weak as shit at this tourney. Even rapha started to over-think so many situations where a straight forward route would have guaranteed him success. Maybe it was cause he was still recovering from a virus or something. Really disappointing event

That kind of play just irritates me, and it is only possible in a game like Quake Live. You can't pull that bullshit in CPM.

I believe Vedic has said you play the map in Quake 3 and you play the player in CPM. Chance vs Vo0 on Dm13 Exhibit A.

Chance deserves to win, but it was the most irritating win I'd ever seen. The guy is on my shit list. Fuck him.

Interesting. Rapha not using the new steelseries mice (understandable) but now is spotted with no Steelseries headset? For shame!

The bigger question is, I wonder how pissed Steelseries is?

I'm pretty sure I did see a better DaHang here then at DH. It seems this update favours him. Ofcourse I could be mistaken and the US players get owned next big confrontation, but I'm not too sure.
Av3k who is the most talented player is pretty much mentally unstable so we never know what happens with him:)

I want a video of the players in the last minutes and when the games end. I'm pretty sure DaHang will look like a happy donkey :D

Chance is probably not the best in-control player. Probably he's far from it. On the other hand, he's got to be one of the best at playing out of control, at least against this field of players.

Also dm6 is still awesome. Some of the games this tournament were excellent, and the last av3k/cooller dm6 match I watched was like they decided to put on a dm6 clinic.

I would have no problem if there was a rule quirk that said dm6 and only dm6 must be played with tl 15, though.

well betting on vo0 beating dahang was just a failed bet from the start judging by the fact dahang has done well in last few tournies and can trade games with rapha online.

vo0 afaik has never done well in a quake tournament?

You're fucking shitting me?

I left it on dm6 assuming with rapha up 2-0 he would win (Dahang only scoring 2 frags in that time vs Raphas's 20+) and he came back and won!!!

I always thought highly of Dahang as a player since Q4 so I got no complaints.

Would love to see the dm6 and remaining 2 maps on Video if someone has a link?

yes, I did it. I managed to download the demos withouth knowing anything about the outcome (by using my hand or closing one eye to cover the score =). What a great final that was, great stuff from both players.

Its the best tactic, but a few times I have questioned my sanity while squinting at the screen looking through a tiny gap in my hand with a tiny minimised browser.

p.s. we really need some aftermatch coverage of these games.. rapha not winning after 4 wins in a row. How did he take it? DaHand beating the unbeatable man, how did he react?
I'm curious! damnit:(

ESL TV recorded the end of the games at the location with a cam and I think carmac made some post game interviews. It all should be on in a couple of days. just check our youtube channel with plenty of videos from edmonton:

Imagine the reporter saying at the end of a football match: "If you want to hear what the coaches and players are saying after this unexpected and unbelievably tight victory of Team A over Team B, just tune in in a couple of days, maybe there will be some interviews!"

(I'm not saying I don't appreciate the effort of the whole esl team, I really enjoyed this tournament.)

Made me laugh so hard because you worded it so realistically i could imagine it really happening on tv.
I get ya though man, their effort is none short of amazing. All the coverage was done very well with yeah a few setbacks. (for QL at least, didnt watch any other games minus some hilarious CS which consisted of a lot of jokes and lag)
It'll only be a matter of time for them to perfect a whole event from beginning to end :D Were getting there!!!!

I felt the same way. I was expecting so much an interview after the match ended. I take it as a sign that the spectating experience prior the end has nothing to envy from the classic sports casting.

of course it is not perfect but as long as money in esport is very limited you cant do anything perfect, it is not that we dont know what a perfect event and coverage should look like, it is more that it is not affordable in most cases, but I can promise that the European Championship Finals will have more interviews, some of the pro gamers as co commentators and all games shown and no WoW/CS interference!

So prepare for a blasting start in 2010 for Quake Live.

just multiply your resolution with 0.5

solved every fps issue i had.

for a logn time it never occured to me that i could be using something else than native resolution.

but stable fps is more important then using native res. and im not experiencing any problems whatsoever .

Yeah, tried it earlier already and nothing helps :(. Framerate keeps constantly changing between 124-125 and ignoring user input. Every so often, couple times a minute framerate drops down to 60-80 and the game freezes, soooo annoying. It's not a hardware issue because the computer I got should be running Quake perfectly.

thanks for the help anyway

Ok, i've watched all the interviews that were made during the tournament and I must compliment carmac on his interviews. Your doing a great job. It's always helpful if the players coorperate and most were good people to interview. All took their time to answer the question.

Still waiting for the after final interviews tho. Taking too long! :D
