I'm trying to remember if the scheduled release date was Christmas 2013 or 2012

This is incorrect, you do not need to upgrade anything.

you can pay with paypal and it will automatically take the funds from your attached bank account, you don't have to be verified
edit: nvm, adding you on steam

steam is blue now and wants you to buy more games: the update

I wasn't really arguing with you, I just meant that it's fair to apply your own logic to yourself if you're going to apply it to us, which is what other people were posting about. Either way I think this trend of disregarding/not caring about matches online is pretty silly. If nothing else our win last night made lan even more exciting for viewers and players to look forward to.

IF he called him out for no reason/just to insult him it would be laughable, but it's perfectly reasonable since harbleu is making an argument that online games don't matter at all and it's all about lan when in fact he has lost 3 out of the last 4 esea lans and just came in 3rd at i52.

what the fuck are you talking about?

...what?

So if a team wins the 1st round but loses the 2nd and 3rd they lose the match, but if they lose the 1st round, win the 2nd, and lose the 3rd the game continues for 1-2 more rounds? ??

Also BO3s will be 5-15 minute games.

yes keep reuploading as a jpeg what could go wrong

So what exactly is preventing esea from scheduling every team to play each map twice? Ever since we hit the holy grail of 9-team invite s15 we've been getting this 'play one map once and another map 3 times' bullshit for (as far as I can tell) absolutely no reason.

Half the teams in invite play process FOUR times...??

6 cuties and mixup

Another day another scrim.
It's badlands and we're playing froyotech. Definitely not our best map, but we're working on it. Both teams ready up and I get ready to do the rollout, the combination
of sticky jumps that most demos below high open aren't even capable of doing. I'll admit I'm no miracle worker but I can hit the jumps at least somewhat consistently. However I am going up against b4nny, the championed Jesus of the competitive community, so I must admit I'm a little worried about this midfight.

Nick "The Fragile :3" Leon gives me a Gerard, a certified 85 extra health points and I place the first sticky at my feet. I crouch, detonate, and then I'm at the spawn door. Another sticky on the wall and I'm in the main doorway with 180. Two more stickies and I'm landing on diagonal with 47. I pick up the health pack in house as the game clock switches from 9:47 to 9:46, a near perfect rollout.

Of course, this is where the real challenge begins. b4nny could be house, balcony, choke, hell maybe he messed up his own rollout and is in valley? I don't see him in the house door, and the chances of him fucking up his rollout or going choke are slim, so I predict and aim my sticky at the balcony window that I can't actually even see (our train is in the way). Keeping in mind the arc of my sticky and how long I've been charging my sticky (about 3 seconds) I release my left mouse button and the bomb slides through the air into their window. All the while I'm strafing and positiong myself in a position as to not get hit by his sticky.

I can't believe it. I hit him, and he didn't hit me. What a great start to this middle.
b4nny walks off a balcony into the valley. Shade looks in his general direction and holds left click for 0.7916 seconds. My damage has been reverted.

I guess with this update the new strategy is do a pyyyour mid and just close my eyes and spam 8 stickies wherever the fuck I please and hope someone walks over them later. Or maybe I should run
Chargin' "400 hp pipe spammer" Targe. Perhaps the Scottish "I'm down, scout has 185" Resistance is the answer. [alternatively Scottish "I can't rollout with this shit" Resistance]

Enemy demo goes targe->my stickies now do 11-25 damage->I have to go targe
And for anyone that thinks the targe is healthy for competition or fun to play against, you are clueless. Replacing one of the most versatile and skill based weapons in the game with passive damage resistance is sydney sleeper/reserve shooter/vitasaw tier of game ruining.

Truthfully there hasn't been enough time to fully understand the update, but I just don't see it being good for the game, especially with 9 days until lan.
