Williams and MEntals Shoutcast?

Good Evening Everyone,

As people know me and mental have started to do some shout casts, both of us are new to this so we would like some feed back from people positive and negative to help us out :)

We are just trying to put abit more life back into ET :)

Come watch us tomorrow at http://www.gamestv.org/event/47936-serious-incident-called-karma-vs-phase/stream/

Thanks for your support,
Have a good night.

its a new thing, so we will be making a new channel and thinking of a name as well
I think the first thing I would fix is in-game config. "Pro" config is fine, but I am pretty sure some movie config will look much more appealing on a stream.

Another thing - mental. I don't think he is cut for casting, at least not in English. I am not saying foreigners can't commentate in English, but he is not that fluent to make it entertaining and stutter-free (I would pretty much be the same - my English is fine, but I am not that good speaker). Your casting was fine, your voice is also somewhat easy on ears. Actually your cooperation with mental can work better if you take a bit more initiative in cast - it works like that for much bigger streamers (in CS:GO Anders/Semmler often invite people from pro teams to co-cast and it works - main caster doing the heavy lifting and bringing some emotion to what's happening and pro bring some insight in what you see, the reasoning behind players decisions, explaining strats etc.).

I think the first point is fair and easy to fix, second one might be too much of an effort considering your viewership won't be in matter of thousands.
Yep I agree with some points, thanks for the feedback! I know that my english is not the best, but that's also the reason I let Williams talk more than I do. It's not my mother language and it's not worth casting ET in german :D
Anyway will try my movieconfig for the next game, maybe it looks better :)

I think you did fine. It doesn't bother me that much. You just have to speak english more often, so it becomes like a second nature and more fluent. I myself think english is a lot easier than other languages (aka Dutch and German). I really enjoyed the shoutcasts, but I've also got one tip. Interact more with each other. Sometimes one of you wants to say something and the other completely ignores it or interrupts. If the match is really exciting (which yesterday wasn't the case) it's fine, but even then after the exciting stuff pick up where you left off and listen to each other. This might be more of a tip for Williams though, since he seemed to interrupt you more often :p Furthermore keep up the good work guys!

hers my 2cents,
i dont like how the stream lags
It was your internet/pc. Right click on the stream and lower the quality. Jeztor had the same with his 3rd world internet
Parent
my internet is top notch, both in speed and latency-
Parent
actually my internet is also top notch.. only lags on some twitch sites and i dont know why that happens but i asked on the stream chat and many others had lag also on high quality.
Parent
