Blackiesmith Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I think having an option that allowed players to view games going on reg, or ranked would be pretty cool. So while we are waiting in que we can watch our friends or good matches going on. Im sure ranked would be even more fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joesixxpack Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) I still like this idea, would be neat. Voice chat might be an issue for dirty cheaters so would need a delay or something. Maybe POT5 could get a screen by the fleet box with channels for watching other servers:rak_02: Edited June 18, 2015 by Joesixxpack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkwerner Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I would be 1000% in favor of this. Being an average PvP'er at best, I'd love to see live matches and learn from what I see. It could be compared to football players watching footage before playing their next team. I know you can watch streams and/or Youtube, but there's something about live action that piques my interest. Maybe POT5 could get a screen by the fleet box with channels for watching other servers:rak_02: As a PoT5 resident, this made me lol...and it's not a bad idea tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerockyul Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I like the idea of spectator mode as someone who doesn't participate in PvP much (I always feel so lost and helpless, even when my stats are good). I'd like to get a better idea of the maps and strategies used at a remove so I will feel more confident queuing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saikochoro Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I wonder if this would tick off streamers though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t-darko Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) As I said in the past, why not go All in on a Huttball league? And then lets do this And the go even more all in with this. Edited June 21, 2015 by t-darko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlrikFassbauer Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) Huttball definitively needs this. Just look at the "Chaos League" games to see how it can be done. Or the later "Bloodbowl" games by the same developers. Edited June 21, 2015 by AlrikFassbauer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jauvtus Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 We can watch the last few matches finished (not live) on big screens on the fleet (or even better spectator screens for guildships!), Giradda could organize underworld betting system for matches (especially for huttball league matches ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanFM Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I'd love this, personally. There are plenty of times when you can't be playing a wz (say if you're eating) and it would be nice to be able to watch people play. Also it's great being able to watch ranked games (or normals) on Twitch and Youtube, seeing the best players in the game at work. It's fun and you can learn from it. As for the comment about streamers not liking it, I don't think they would mind at all. DailyPvP got lots of his viewers from commentating on Ranked 8v8 games back in the day. Having a built in spectator mode would give people more choice on who to watch/commentate on. Also it wouldn't take away from most streams, as a big part of streams is listening to the streamer talk. People don't just watch Snave for his gameplay, for example. Anything that gets more people to watch PvP is a good thing in my view. SWTOR still only attracts very small numbers on YouTube and Twitch compared to other games unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
