Hello!
As a new member of the community,having never played COH1, well when i heard about coh2 and saw alot of media about it i was super excited.
I played long hours, i watched tournaments, and everything was going well. I loved the ESL tournament and found a favorite player in barton. First i would like to say this is not a "heuheu y u ban barton thread" it was just a statement. Anyway, moving on, the community is already very small as it is, and i cannot see relic making this game part of e-sports and hype it up/make it a big deal like they always talk about. The small community has so much drama that i feel new players, or those interested in playing would simply pass and move on. Even with what ever happened, it is not really good publicity to ban the winner of your big recent tournament lol.
The game itself should really be focused on and all that instead of these little school yard fights. thats what really must happen. This is the internet, people will always fight and have rivalries. So much time and effort are being poured into this whole COHExperts/hans/reborn whatever you want to call it, it does not matter, when there will always be another one. always two parties feuding etc. I mean, every time there is a fight is THAT going to be the center of attention, rather than the game itself?
Just food for thought from a new, concerned member of the community
