[QUOTE=tokamak;379213]will the matches be cast?
I still have this suspicion that they used two years of ‘hardcore’ feedback on doing the opposite in order to attract the mainstream.[/QUOTE]
Hahaha yea 
Read the community feedback and do the exact opposite to attract the mainstream.
gl&hf with the new customer target group
It’s almost too easy, I can just hand pick the best players I meet online, these guys haven’t even heard of ESL yet.
[QUOTE=tokamak;379194]Got a few more maybe´s. But I have a bad experience with maybe so I guess I´ll get more desperate before the deadline.
´Rep´ would be a cool team name wouldn´t you think?[/QUOTE]
Call your team ‘Mash-Up’. A wonderful reference to your team being slapped together at short notice and the variety of ‘ideas’ in Brink.
‘Clusterfudge’
It’s nice though. I just met a guy who sincerely loves the game. Great player as well.
Couldn’t play after the dlc so I uninstalled. gl though and thanks for asking.
One can only hope.
It looks like I may in fact have a Digital Legion team, so sorry Tokamak, looking forward to kick your ass 
Is no one else concerned about this 3rd-party program that they are requiring people to install?
Jimmy no like. Bad medicine.

Have you never played competitively before?
I was in a DOOM 2 tournament in 1995. Does that count?
I was the top ranked player until my girlfriend at the time, Throbblefoot, came back from a trip to Ireland. Then I dropped out and now I’m just rambling.
Anyway, why didn’t Brink ship with PunkBuster like ET:QW?

Most leagues require you to run a 3rd party anti-cheat program these days because shipped anti-cheat (Brink uses VAC) get hacks coded specifically to get around them, and especially when there is no demo-recording. This is of course to steal your bank account information and implant viruses in your brain… jk.
The sad thing is these 3rd party anti-cheat doesn’t do ****. Other than making you lag and being annoying.
The last league anti-cheat I used in a game made my vent crash randomly and ate 50% cpu. In the middle of a finals match, I suddenly drop from vent before I can call the full rush that was heading to my bomb site… luckily I clutched lol.
Seems like the app is mainly used to discourage cheating rather than actually detect it.
I’m really thankful to ESL for starting up another Cup. Hopefully SGS and Epsilon will be back for a rematch? Wish I could play, but I’m in Japan, so probably not allowed, and would have bad ping anyway.
They tend to scan your pc (registry probably) for specifics and monitor your processes. I am sure some just add a scare factor as well.
Alright, tokamak, if they release the weapon updates before the cup, I’ll play.
Though I’ll have to play on a laptop, a wireless connection and a 250-300 ping. It’ll be like I’m from Poland. 
Sounds like you would be better off without the patch favouring those who can aim then.
What’s the ruleset for this? I found the maps but that seems to be everything on the ESL site. What about abilities?
