Good job, you guys were on a live popular feed of a CBS owned major gaming site and they were totally put off by the host being squashed by premades over and over while just trying to show his target audience the game.

Weren't they playing 8 man groups? You know the mode made for 8 man premades? T'was sad them getting crushed, but that would happen in any skill based game with 8 man premade mode.

Do you have a link to the video or is this it?

If that was it, it seems they were in an 8 man "premade" themselves.

I heard they were goons, but holy crap I did not know they would stoop this low. Giantbomb is owned by CBS for Kerenky's sake! Goons are even ruining CBS now! They must be stopped!

watching one of the videos, he has a terrible set up on the 2x, he has 1 large laser arm, lrm 10 and 2 medium lasers. that is a build i'd just destroy for kicks and giggles.

edit: hell he didn't even lock on with missles before firing, the guy is a terrible newb and got owned for it in a place that only competive gaming happens. he should have gone in the 4 man groups.

Yeah for the intended show they should have pugged it. That's where many starter players will begin anyhow.

D'Oh.

I gotta say, if this had been an ABC show I would have been on board but you can't do this to CBS.

Am I understanding this correctly?

Whats truely pathetic about that is it would seem they were trying to take an 8 man team and stomp on pugs, when in all reality they were fighting at the very least semi-organized teams. I'd say they were karma'd.
