The Sabot matchmaking is relesead. The system goes on-line October 12th, 2013. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Sabot begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, October 13th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug...
I mean, I love competitive NS2, I've done my fair share of shoutcasting competitive NS2, I love the tournaments, and so on, but honestly asking the fans for $30,000 to run a tournament instead of $30,000 to hire some freelancer to make the game better seems like sort of a waste, especially with the Reinforcement program ongoing. NS2 is a tremendous game but the competitive scene needs performance increases and better balance, not a chance to fly to Germany.
I am confused. It has "never been done before"? But you already had a tournament that was global. We had Australian, Asian and South American teams (the few that exist) in the Summer cup and that other one with ARC v Nexzil in the finals, didn't we?
So what's the real difference? " the community contributes". But they already did in the Summer Cup. So the only real difference is having another two teams live.
Unlike most, I am excited about this. It's not matchmaking (this tournament would be a good way to celebrate it) but I suppose it's something...

Yeah this doesn't affect the majority of players who uwe should have been focusing on instead of this competition rubbish, sorry but as much as you may hope nothing noteworthy has or will ever come of it, ns2 is just too small for that, but well done for letting the majority down once again, it's disappointing to see how ns2 has gone, people wonder why it keeps losing players, perhaps if they had thought more about pub play and included stats, rewards, matchmaking etc which is expected nowadays things would be different, oh well...

(It's totally matchmaking)
Hugh shaves?? This piece of news has already blown us away!
So I can't wait for the second instalment!
Because due to real life reasons I cant be there.
(Just asking, their timezone picture is always confusing me)
Ah, that wouldn't work out ><
So I will be stopping myself from getting too hyped until I actually know what it is.
This time it is the genderqueer model.
NS3 CONFIRMED!
They hired UWE for creating HL3!
Bloody waste of time!

Still - that was quite terrible sensationalism.:P
If they do both i'll be happy
