Considering the game is less than a month out of beta and is handling a tremendous work load (600+ viewers in the opening prelims, not including the people who were just playing not viewing at the time) and the that all the casting in the prelims was done by armature studio's without a uniform back-end infrastructure, i am surprised there wasn't more teething issues.
I'm more than happy with the tournament thus far, GO LGD.c WEW...
600+ ?? NaVi and Alliance games were getting in excess of 100,000 spectators! Also, I reckon the casters are probably getting paid for their time, effort, knowledge and shouting-into-a-mic abilities, making them professional, not amateur.
Apart from some minor lag issues I think so far it's been great.
Alliance way too stronk! Dat fake-Roshan-showing-treants-then-sweep-round-behind-and-get-2-free-kills strat was so amazingly good...
99% of the people in this thread have no clue how computer networking is working apparently. I am pretty suprised it is working that smooth to be honest. It could have been a lot worse so I would rather say Valve is doing a great job network wise. Of course the dotanetwork is dying sometimes, but this issue will be fixed sometimes soon too. They were probably not prepared for that huge amount of viewers or estimated the load the new players caused wrongly.
Was hilarious and then they managed to ward every single radiant neutral camp straight after. What's her name was casting, Sheever is it, and she loudly exclaimed in the dota client: "HOLY FUCK!", which was very funny. Well worth a download.
Its not surprising that people who have never been a part of doing something great cannot appreciate it. As long as such people remain powerless they can gripe and whine all they want it won't have any real impact.
The only problem comes when ungrateful masses of children who believe they are owed luxuries for free gain the power to demand them by force. Then the slavery ensues.
No N'aix, you haven't 'pay for product' when it comes to the International. You've bought a compendium about the tournament. These are different things. I have no idea what you're complaining about and you have obviously never been to a LAN.
Some games last 15 minutes. Some games last over an hour. Of course the schedule will get messed up. The coverage in game has been fine from this viewers perspective, like, no problems. Oh, sorry, one game the audio was bit out of sync but I re-joined and it was fine.
If you don't like it then don't watch it. Simples.
@maxlez: You leave us low KDA ratio peoples alone please, it's not our fault we're retarded :D
1. Yeah i have paid for a product. I supported them with my money. But it seems like the money had no impact. Regardless of whether they had 1000$ or 1.000.000$ we would get the same product which sucks that they cant do better with a bigger prizepool.
2. Lol, they havent even started the first game because it was delayed by 1 hour. Get ur facts straight.
3. So what if i havent been to a lan?
4. Lol, audio wasnt fixed for the first 2 games.
5. Yeah, i paid for this so they better give me what i paid for.
I would love for all the kids hating on valve to be in valves shoes right now.
@[FF]N'aix
You might as well just kick yourself in the ass and go cry in a corner now. You don't seem to understand all the pressure valve is under. So what if the audio was shit for 2 games? They fixed it, right? So what if a game was delayed by 1 hour. It could have been 2, 3 or even 4, and yet you sit here and cry to everyone.
TI3 IS free to watch. Only things you paid for when you bought the compendiums are the items and support towards valves and DoTAs growth. Valve promised you nothing, and you shall get nothing that wasn't promised.
Now, stop acting like the world revolves around you and bring your cry baby attitude to another forum that actually cares.
God damn, dota is full of kids, who have nothing to say, so they keep on complaining. I enjoy the tournament and am aware how big of an event this is- and how much effort it had to take to assemble it. True, this is an event aimed at us, but still, its a fest organised for the pros- their opinion is essential. And i dont hear them bitching.
It's much better than TI2 :D

nigga what ? the main reason of keeping on beta was not enough servers
so releasing games for public = having shit tons of servers stocked to hold up hundreds of billions players
apearently volvo still fails even if it took them 2 years to prepare for this
Monkeh - is that clip on youtube? I'd like to see.
Alliance did it again in TI3? If I remember properly they did it in DH Winter too against EG
Getting real tired of your shit, Volvo.
@[FF]N'aix: Yup: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crQhca-Eg2Y

and now the motherfucking sound. This is so pathetic. They seem so unprepared. And the tournament was delayed by 1 hour. Gg valve.

Your comment made me laugh so hard.
What was really funny, is your probably only 13-15 years old in real life and you talk like this?
Buddy, when you mature and your balls drop, try trolling me.
Until then, bye bye.
P.S. You bad get mad
My predictions about this thread:
N'aix will point out 47% winrate on ADK
ADK will counter troll
???
Trolltrolltroll
I can counter troll right now.
He has a 35.06%.....
I win.
