Re: E-Sport


As cool as it would be, I dont think that involving the pubbies or alowing for Esports teams (sponsors more like) to make 'friends' (pay off) other outfits to win matches would be very benificial.

But at the same time, if you take away the massive gameplay, PS2 stops being PS.

Instead if you have multiple matches taking place at the same time over the same area, (each one being casted seperately?) then you have the large scale fights but with less of the issues. different teams can work together for mutual benifit, but they all have different goals.

Imagine forinstance, 9 different esports teams (30 players per, 3 per PS2 faction) fighting over a three base area with smaller bases inbetween, each team has a different goal for example defending the main base, or capturing another or killing a certain ammount of one of the empires teams and so on and so forth.

This still alows for much of the inter team drama, imagine two teams that are known rivals happening to be placed on the same empire, will they work together? will they try to hinder eachother etc...

So a simmilar take, but with less of the random bullshit that could happen, or the entirety of PS2 becoming about who is helping what esports team.

EDIT: The real problem of all of this is that there is just not enough money in esports to maintain this large a group of esports players.
