Hey folks… just wanted to make sure you point your browsers to QuakeCon.org from Thursday through Saturday to catch QuakeCon coverage. When it’s time for Brink to hit the stage, Brink TV will be there!
Exact coverage details will be listed shortly:
Brink TV will be at QuakeCon 2011

Good to hear! I was wondering who was going to be casting/streaming this year.
Past years have seen a big hoopla leading up to Quakecon from you guys. Why no hype this year?
What about Quakelive? Who is casting/streaming those matches?

Would’ve liked to be there in the flesh, but streaming will have to do. Good luck!

Greased, I’ve been waiting ages for some coverage to see the new spec features! Looking forward to this. GL

It’s a shame with all the hard work you guys put in the game never panned out, but I’m glad you guys at least have QuakeCon to put your skills to work.

Well, let’s put it that way:
The DLC ist just in time for Quakecon (anyone betting on coincidence? ).
So we will most likely be seeing interesting matches on two maps, which no team could practise intensely in advance.

Which two maps? I thought only Labs is in the rotation?
Last I checked:
Round 1, Playoffs: Aquarium
Round 2, Semi-Finals: Resort
Round 3, Quarter-Finals: Terminal
Round 4, Bronze and Grand Finals: Labs
Did it change? Did they add the Tower?

4 rounds? Do they even have 16 teams? xD
Greased, you and Mattc0m should probably try and see if there’s a BYOC ETQW tourney to cover, or you may have very little to cast. ;D

Ooouuuhh, you are right about that.
So far, Tower is not listed. Too bad…

Always enjoy your casting Greased. If you can manage some Quake Live and/or ETQW coverage too, so much the better

Darn… I wish I could go over there and compete (only live 40 minutes away). I’ve been interested in going to Quakecon recently, but every time it comes around… no dice. Maybe next year.

Yes, the map list has changed but no Tower.
They first Tweeted that the map list was Aquarium, Reactor, Terminal, and Labs. Then about a week later they posted the “official rules”. The rules showed Reactor being replaced by Resort. Then 2 days ago they updated the official rules and went back to Reactor.
I even sent Badman a PM specifically asking if the map change was a type-o or if they really meant for Resort to replace Reactor. He wrote back and said “It is, in fact, Resort…”.
And there are currently 13 or 14 teams signed up with full rosters. First round byes for the top seeds I would assume… but again, the schedule doesn’t even show the first round, it skips straight to the 2nd round… so who really knows!
It should be interesting to see how it all pans out. How will it look when the finals is played on a map no one has seen or played? What else will they manage to much up with this tournament? I can’t wait to see how they handle characters, levels, and abilities…

Not complaining…I thought we’d be getting a pc specific gun patch with more accurate guns before quakecon.
