Offclassing in pugs doesn't represent offclassing within a team. It doesn't help you learn, it's only good for messing around. That's why people don't like it.
Then it's much, much easier with startmovie and avidemux.
edit: on reddit you said this is the method to make sick nasty frag videos in great quality. We aren't in disagreement here.
I use startmovie and avidemux, which is the simplest combination I found. OP is talking about fancy frag movies with effects and cheesy soundtracks etc though.
EsDeeKaywaffleb are you sure it's gonna be allowed on s14 and not s15? because i'm hearing more and more rumours about it not being allowed next season ;/
What have you heard?
We're talking about freemiums, not cash. Any company rep can give those out.
You're talking about what should happen. I'm talking about what happens. You can tell because what I say happens, happens.
BentomatfraacYou could have uncoached mixes through the week and add lots of trusted regulars as Mumble mods, then insist the weekend thing is for very new players.
People could be doing this on their own in the channel. You can move yourself between Mumble channels, you don't need an admin to drag you. The main problem I've had with PUGs in the Newbie Mix mumble is that people don't understand their own skill level. When we play a PUG it should be people who understand the game well enough to not need a coach. My most recent one had two soldiers who didn't understand the difference between a pocket and a roamer and a medic who just ran around looking for anybody to heal.
It's true you don't need Mumble admins, but giving people responsibility is hugely useful in creating a self-sustaining mix group. They could ask unfamiliar players their experience and pick balanced teams.
Love these demo reviews bl4nk! Any chance you could link to your twitch page in the OP so we can get the full archive?
Lower level players don't have the gumption. But if you set the ball rolling, a daily mix group for new players is self-sustainable. Europe has two. You just find regulars who can tell people what to do without scaring them off. They can afford to be slightly better players, like with higher division experience, because you reserve the weekend for total newberries.
Smakers, yes, but that's nobody's concern here. You put pressure on Killing to stump up because he gave you the leverage in the screenshot. He can then put pressure on ESEA if he has leverage with them. Politics 101 yo.
Halftime could be used to swap a player if one team were getting rolled, if nothing else.
FzeroAre you trying to say that if you told people it was Sunday, they would still show up on Friday? If that is the case, then the real problem is getting your message out to the public correctly.
Exactly, you need to put in more energy to have people react properly to changes. Keeping things on the same day is the easiest way to be self-sustaining, not draining. Get back to me when you run a mix group.
20% turnout. Mix groups only work if the (huge) energy you put into them is rewarded. Change the days and you would have to keep putting in energy for little reward. It doesn't work.
FzeroChange days of play, if you want to play on Fridays, make the next week a Sunday or something. This will get more people to coach and play, since not everyone is going to play on Friday night.
Just a tiny point that this doesn't work. Any group of people larger than 2 is incredibly sluggish to adapt to change. If 100 people turned up on Friday one week and you told them it was Sunday the next week, 80 would turn up on Friday.
