well if fifa can, so can guitar hero ;)
you have to realise we arent talking about mental capabilities required, but sponsor-attracting capabilities required, the game that attracts the most sponsors will naturally find itself on wcg games list :)

cs 1.6 is a mode but it is so-so fine, dota is luckily still not added as it would be a joke :)

Rofl you just prove you dont know anything about cs.. sorry but kids who still think cs is a mod are... whoah, theyre like you, enough said.

(8 months ago) #51 myMYM\|Dendra

i was referring to cs and it's beginning...it was made as a half-life mode....

you cant say it was origin of anything related to fps when you were sucking your palm while quake was played.

quake is the mother of fps, i couldnt care less what is cs now or what has it become since the cs source, fact is it was a zero when q3 was "the" fps.

If force won't work, use greater force.

Lol man, comparing CS to Quake is senseless, as one cant replace another on any tourney. It's like you would want to replace SC with... heroes of might and magic :X

new games :D cool

GAWD, ITS 1.6!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no surprise, gj choosing old good platforms

Why didn't they host an AoE3 tournament when they first launched it. Woulda been such a boost for the game.

Instead they let it die and only host a tourney for the delayed add-ons.

(8 months ago) #9 myMYM\|vhallee

maybe because aoe3 is worthless as a strategical item, especially compared to starcraft / warcraft.

we all know that sc, wc3 and cs are the base of wcg and they wouldn't be so stupid to give up on them.

I'll be nicer when you're smarter.

(8 months ago) #14 Centauri

It had a lot of potential, and I never wanted them to replace either WC3 or SC, as I am a big fan of them myself. As you can see those games can be hosted in one event. But they decided to let a game with potential die, just to host a WCG event for it with the add-on, which is not so clever.

(8 months ago) #16 myMYM\|vhallee

it has alot of potential just like CnC 3 ;)
yes, that is sarcasm, i see them as shiny strategy games that have the eye-candy role, nothing more. sure, there are more games in the list there that just make me wonder what were they smoking when they chose them, but nvm :p

I'll be nicer when you're smarter.

(8 months ago) #17 Centauri

You can't compare it to CnC, it's more like a mix of SC and WC3. And as you know it's all about the money, so if the developer wants a game at WCG, he can get it there. :E

(8 months ago) #19 myMYM\|vhallee

thats the sad part: its all about the money :( good thing that the best games like sc compensate money with a great community. I'll be nicer when you're smarter.

(8 months ago) #45 myMYM\|Dendra

not really, i was a huge fan of aoe series, i played it all, many top 2v2 aoe2:the conq tours, etc., also played aoe3 and was invited to play in some usa team (were gonna buy me original cd just to play for 'em XD) what makes aoe just tooooo boring and slow is the fact that it is a different class of RTS, we call these classes with two names here, i'll try to translate :D "fast-clickers" are wc3 and sc, "megalomania" is aoe. aoe3 is just too slow in overall and lacks even more than wc3 lacks compared to sc so basically aoe3 is in the same basket as cc3. If force won't work, use greater force.

gonna be fun to watch the SC tourny, CS is getting more and boring to watch

Try searching for "mym army" on google!

(8 months ago) #11 JSN1

You sir confused CS with SC :D

(8 months ago) #12 Dinsdale

Nope, CS is getting boring and slow.. Rather watch truly talented players play in SC over CS. CS just makes you dumb

Try searching for "mym army" on google!

(8 months ago) #27 Metro-

Maybe for a gamer, but I'm pretty sure someone that doesn't know the two games will say SC is bullshit and will understand CS much more.

(8 months ago) #47 myMYM\|Dendra

yes i agree non-educated 10yr olds that skip classes to play guitar hero will actually find cs more interesting than sc, for those who are interested in esports sc is far more interesting the more you start to understand the game :)

If force won't work, use greater force.

(8 months ago) #49 JSN1

soz sir, youre retarded :( dont insult me honey.

Have fun with your guitar hero.

(8 months ago) #52 myMYM\|Dendra

to appreciate RTS you need a level of understanding and some intelligence to understand what goes on the screen without knowing entire basics of that game.

to appreciate fps you just need to know who kills who. naturally experienced eye can notice details in movement and strategical decisions/good timings/amazing shots, but for a beginner fps is identical to watching someone play guitar hero...that's my point.

If force won't work, use greater force.

(8 months ago) #53 JSN1

It's ok now, but seriously, you really had to play very little fps games to say sth like this. it's more than just understanding who to kill. it's like i would say that in starcraft you just need to know where's your enemy's base, so you win. get your facts straight.
