Live stream suggestions

[Ellay]

Heya, for anyone who was able to watch the stream this evening. Was hoping for suggestions on ways to improve the overall experience to make it more beneficial, especially for the multiboxing community.

Is there anything you'd like to see? besides of course better quality / less lag (will turn off chat from the get go next time.)

Maybe give more of a play by play inside matches, or explain more of whats going on in a multiboxing perspective?

All opinions are appreciated. I hope it was entertaining and enjoyable - even if I do sing terrible and trash talk :P

Just guessing, what if you show us the view from an alt and from overhead (about 2/3 view not straight down) so we can see the bad guys. The chat was totally useless to me, the voice chat helped a lot though. What about an explanation of your UI? Most of us won't have a problem, but for new people, you could put up a screenshot and then annotate what is what. Like watch here, the is what we are casting. Whatch here, this what our focus is. And so on. What if you give us your general playstyle. Not really enough so people could beat you, but like I will probably go for a certain person first, then cast 3 times, then heal, etc. We could be watching for it, so when we see it, it isn't doesn't look so random. I don't know, just arena PVP is too fast for me to think about what is going on, so I end up just watching, not actually thinking about what is going on. I am too slow I guess.

First of all, as a newer boxer, thanks for doing this. My dudes are still in their 20s, and this gives a nice view into high level arena matches.

Great idea to turn chat off. It was vulgar and racist and disgusting and I almost killed the feed because of it. Thanks for turning it off. It also improved the lag watching the battles. Hopefully it will weed out some of the morons too.
More in game commentary would be great.
The Q&A between fights was cool too, when people weren't being asshats.
Anything to up the quality would rock, it was hard to figure out who you were targeting. Perhaps the view from an alt, like suggested above, would work out better. Not sure if it would screw you up though.
Speed up the queues, geeze Blizz!


Thanks again

gratz on getting the house!

From seeing the view on the stream, the video appeared to be coming from Shaman #2, not the main. Which is why there were so few addons as well... along with the funky camera views and keyboard turning everybody was so intent on laughing about.

I personally didn't have a problem with it, but yeah... the chat on the other hand was filled with way too much QQ.

I plan on placing addons on the other screen so it is much more visible to those watching, such as proximo and casting information. Will try to also give a better play by play

Currently right now trying to find a way to get much better quality as it isn't anything amazing yet ;p

Post in your BG forums to try and get more decent teams to queue up when you do. Faster queue times but I guess there's not much you can do if they plan to queue dodge you.

That chat made me lose a little faith in humanity.

Resolution really sucked. Made it hard to see what was going on.

I enjoyed getting a feel for what you go through with 4 dps rush comps. Just saying, that was exciting.

I posted a couple of suggestions in the stream thread.... Didn't see this one 1st :huh:

[Wilbur]

Higher Quality stream would be nice.

I'll have a look see if I can find a decent provider.

Can you not announce it on the general forums next time? :P The amount of shits and turds in silvermoon and in chat was mind boggling.

[Ellay]

Ya I'm going to leave out the General forums post in the future
