I can take any form of critics, has been enough of them. I just know why this guy criticizes this article and that's also for personal reasons... I'm 100% sure of that. So if he criticizes me for personal reasons, he can expect a personal comment.
He was doing so, and I know this 100% sure, because he and I had a bit of a fight in another journal. So basically his critics were based on me personally rather than the article. Besides this is the first coverage post about CGS on Crossfire so why would it matter that the CGS is covered all over the internet. That's only logical because it's such a big event.
This looks like a joke, DoA seems to be simplistic so that anybody can understand it... great but its way too limited in skill to be considered worthy of an 'sport'
CSS looks fine apart from the way its pretty boring to watch as its fairly slow and it doesn't demonstrate the skills of the players or any real tension, important for me. To boring to look at the rest
Stupid comercialised shit... wouldn't watch it unless i was directly competing and even then i'd get pissed off with the camera angles n stuff
He had to focus a lot of time training belle up at first, now complexity have signed 2 extra DOA4 players to help train swoozie and belle. He came back from 4-1 down to lost 4-5 to chappelle the other night and in the process gave complexity a 1 point win. He'll come strong now.
Yeh the camera angles on CS:S are terrible, but i heard that DJ wheat was told not to go into first person too much because of flashes. Your comment about doa is incorrect. If that was the case then vanessa would not crush everyone the way she has, she must be alot more skilled. Football doesn't look skilled to an american, as they so quaintly put it, "it's just kicking a ball". Doa just seems to be fighting but it's alot more diverse when you watch more than one game. I hadn't ever watched a fifa/pgr3 or DOA4 match before CGS. Now im hooked! the PGR3 games are usually exciting and the DOA4 matches are usually quite tight unless belle or vanessa are playing :p
This is just trying to emulate normal sports. Gaming isn't, don't try to be. Just for that this is going to fail... miserably. For gaming to go mainstream you first have to decide on a game for each genre and a platform. Then you need to break with the ordinary and try to be different. Only then it has the possibility of going mainstream.
Some of our players are participating in the European FIFA competition, I hope they'll do well! Too bad some of our most skilled players aren't 18 yet :(
CGS: its a joke only americans would find that kind of show fun. No skill feels like watching some random gameshow on a friday night. Ok its good for esport in the long run but i hope they will do it a different way in the future.
i agree that the whole setting is too america, making it a useless comercial show with the GM's as some sort of pep talk machines. but i think the format, besides all the comercial stuff is pretty cool with the different franchises and drafted teams. though im afraid they couldnt function properly without eachother.
That's how the games rank in importance to be honest, at least with the point structure. JasonX and Ch0mper virtually take 6-8 points every PGR3 race, and they are partly the reason why Chicago are doing so well, along with a good DOA4 pair and decent CS:S team. Their only weakness is FIFA, and he doesn't lose by that much unlike complexitys DOA4 pairs Belle (1-44 [the 1 point she won, was a technical one where her opponent clicked start during the game by accident]) and swoozie has only won one or two games.
CGS has some good things going for it, and some really negative things. The best thing apart from the money involved is probably the team format, where each team is basically a mini mgc and people who don't necessarily follow any particular player/clan or game can follow a team based on their location.
"Also the players, at least the one I saw, are very targeted towards their teammates and the audience. Constantly cheering when they've won one round. A bit too extravagant in my opinion."
When your playing for alot of money and it's something you really want to win, then it's just like any other sport when you score a goal or take a wicket, you celebrate.
I understand, it's a part of sportsmanship, but one guy was cheering so much during his DOA match that he almost missed the start of the next round, it just looked all acted and stuff... thats why i called it too extravagant.
Haha yeh was that when Complexity's manager Jason Lake jumped on him? that was because they had just won the match by one point :p But i agree that at times it is very over the top, typically American.
it was Core versus Chimera. the male doa player for core was up first and every point he made he turned around to his team and began cheering... :P its typically american yes.
good night
So his comment doesn't make any sense either.

Games like that, which have limited rule sets and finite moves take more skill to be honest.
You should try playing the game before making stupid comments such as the one quoted above.
P.S. Swoozie is king of DOA! :P
PGR3 > DOA4 > CS:S > FIFA07

Nice to see you moving away from ET/CoD2! ;-)
