    Look at them stumble blindly across the map :D
    (It took him 19 minutes to open the map xD)

    Personal favorites:
    "I can give you meds and ammo, but one has to be really fast for that"
    *a0/w1, against fades* "These sentries are going to save us!"
    *comm sits on 160 res* "We need more of this awesome shit!" - "We need more extractors for that!"

    :'D

    I can't understand a word they're saying but it is facinating. I also wasn't aware of the little popup tutorial things that give you things to do (call for meds, turn on flashlight). Good stuff!

    I'm afraid to say that German isn't the most spoken language in the world.

    ...

    Mandarin is.

    Haha

    It all depends on what are the criteria and who writes it. Take one German is in the top ten, another is 18 etc...

    I think this gives us a good impression how rookies play the game. Can we learn from this? :)

    We should try invite him to merc in a lower division pcw to get some attention to competitive play. Telling from the games he normally plays I am sure his audience is not really the kind of people who enjoy competitive games, but he got 1.5 million subscribers, maybe some of them might like it. Any german lower division team volunteers?

    the only german team out there is HBZ I think (and maybe Yggdrassil) but I would call non of them low division. but since they play 5v5 mostly maybe 2 german comp players could train them so the 2 teams can play on div 4 level against each other...

    I think the hardest thing might be contacting those youtubers...

    Its a nice idea, and we could volunteer for that. A little "showmatch" to present the more tactical side of NS2 could bring more players to the game.

    And about the divisions: As this is more about presenting the comp side of NS2, im sure we can find a way no matter what division.

    You may be putting a fish in with sharks before he is ready which might not be enjoyable for him.

    Still though a pick up game of some sort might be cool.

    Well, Hugh was mercing againt us ages ago:

    And he played one round with us on the field and he had much fun, but i cant find the video.

    It would be hard to put a totally rookie into a team of comp players for sure, but with a bit "organisation" im sure he and every viewer of the youtube video become an idea about comp play in NS2.

    And that is what this little project should be:
    A introducing of comp play to an audience never see that before.

    I agree that an introduction into comp play is a good idea. If this guy is up for it, there is probably a lot we could do with him and the community. If someone, preferably German, finds a way to contact him and does so in a professional way we may be able to use him for a bunch of stuff. That is if he is willing and passionate about the game.
    Admittedly, I have not watched more than 30 seconds of the first video in this thread because it is in german.

    It was against 420 (including Ironhorse) on Summit. I can't find the vidio neither. Wasn't it a twitch livestream? I couldn't find it at twitch.tv/naturalselection2. Did Hugh have his own twitch channel before streaming as twitch.tv/naturalselection2? Like http://twitch.tv/ns2hd? I would really love to see that again.

    I remember sub hive being at 3% when we wiped. :) #neverforget

    Anyways, it would be cool if HBZ could have some kind of show match with Sarazar.

    I contacted him already to offer to share information about the game. He has not replied yet. So good luck trying to involve him in competitive play. I don´t think he is interested. ;)

    Maybe he's more interested if someone from the Community Development Team would approach him. Maybe Ghoul can handle that?

    Twitter is a better option for this, It's always better than random friend request on facebook, Steam or email on his youtube channel. You can also try his business email adress if he has one
