Great set of announcments, but...who remembers such classics from the stream as:

• "How'd you like this sandwich son" offkey dubstep whilst watching randoms drink beer at a table.
  
• "%@^! Yeah! , @&£! Yeah!" on repeat as the MWO logo shows for 15 minutes.
  
• 3 second zoom shots of random people (the caterer, a bald guy, somone bending over)
  
• The audio for battletech playing whilst stream of new 1v1 arena.

Personally I found it hillarious for the hour or so that I watched, but I do care about this IP (see founders badge). The huge announcment will have brought in a new crowd, and future productions need to be more professional and fun e.g.

• Vetting music before stream
  
• Music matching demographic
  
• More care over audio/vid in general
  
• More fun stuff to do on stream (interactivity) or player interviews etc.
  
• Less splash screens and more inteviews / tornament pics or even playing some choice regional final matches as a buildup to the tourney.
  
• More competative teams at the finals , and a better format to mix things up (More map randomisation perhaps).

I have to say, the stream was bad. It's not to hard to stick a mic in someones face, and it would have been so much more engaging than... whatever that was.

Russ and Paul did a 30 minute Q & A session that we got to watch maybe five minutes of. HBS Battletech gameplay sound over the Q & A camera, if memory serves, plus a loss of feed were the two main culprits. Disappointing to a large degree.
