It gives you HD for the 4 main events, which otherwise only have free LQ. It doesn't give you access to the additional PPV Arenas, but it gives you a discount from the price. Think of the Arenas as a bonus content, which only exists because it's PPV (even for Gold members). The alternative would be that these bonus events don't exist at all.

when I was buying MLG Gold for 30 $ I was hoping I wont need to buy more this year. thats a lot in my country... dont have more money too bad
|
Hmm not quite worth it for me I think, considering that I didn't enjoy the last Arena that much and well... May 18-20th? That's gonna be Diablo 3 time, no matter what ;p
Although I'm already looking forward to watching Sc2 Tournaments while playing Diablo 3 - awesome timings incoming :D

Love seeing MKP doing so well! Can't wait

It's what gold membership was for the last arena: a discount. Except unlike last time, where it was a $5 discount, you get half off the bundle deal. And gold is good for a year. So that's 4 bundle deals, so you save a pretty good chunk of money. Plus, it gives you access to all the stuff at the main events. So that's 4 tournaments, plus 8-9 that you get for half off/get to see that you normally wouldn't.
Speaking of money, MLG I hope you guys enjoy mine :D

Not getting a cent from me, sadly.

Awesome, MLG columbus was great, huge audience and a really fun thing to witness. Can't wait for the spring season, seems like MLG is really dialing this all in. They are looking good from an outside prespective and I really hope these arenas are succesful for them. I know I'm paying for these.
|
any information on the online qualifiers? updates? my bad didnt see the post in tourny section.
|
Ha one weekend for $20, now they are offering 4 weekends for $30. Think they learned something? Sounds good to me, looks like a decent adjustment.

Don't be too upset man , you still got 3 more MLG championships to watch in HD :D!
|
HD access to 4 events, 3 of which will be live, 1 of which is live audience with 3/4 streams going at once.
Pretty good deal for me, i'll be buying.
|
Bah not a fan of being forced (as in no free stream, not a gun to my head) to pay to watch any STARCRAFT event. I will never purchase anything MLG related, and there are always ways to watch it free, and no I don't feel bad about that.
|
I thought gold included this. Actually noticed that it said "championship events" instead of just events, but I assumed "1 premium tournament per month" would cover it. Also I wrongly assumed that they wouldn't be so cheap about it and that plenty of people must feel cheated just like me if it doesn't cover it.
Guess I know now what to expect at least.

If you don't want to pay to watch it, don't watch it at all.

I enjoy your constructive criticism, MLG will surely better themselves after such a well thought out post. Please, tell me more.
|
It does seem like a great deal, but being in college, I just can't talk myself into paying to watch other people play a video game.
|
I could afford this easily, but I won't buy it. If I compare it to the prizes of IPL and ESL TV (IEM and HomeStory) it is just ridiculously expensive. I can't understand why everybody here is saying that is a fair deal. It is not as shameless as Winter Arena, but it is still a rip-off. IPL is 60$ for one year, everything included. ESL TV is 48$ for one year, everything included...
|
tried getting the last mlg, could not get it for whatever reason, mlg always but on a good show seems to be a fair price as well.
|
Glad I bought a Gold Membership! Thanks for listening to fans and the community about the price point MLG! Hope the Spring season is as good as Winter, because even though I paid 20 bucks for a weekend, the games were Epic, and I loved the SC Action!
Thx MLG !
