sixfortyfive also posted this in that thread:

Cronus doesn't have a great rep in the fighting game community, fwiw. I know some specific models of their converter dongles have been banned at tournaments because they cause input drops on the other player's controller.

Yikes. The adapter also has macro support, which is usually something that gets a controller banned at a tournament.

edit: derp he actually posted about this just now, but yeah I wouldn't buy one of these if you're looking for a converter for a tournament

Here's the thing: http://cronusmax.com/

Hope TOs get these things for KI tournaments so folks can keep using their old sticks. Also, RIP FPS pad players.

Any word on the input lag from this? Seems like a great product but could still be a non-starter for FG's...

 

[El Sloth]

PSA: Certain Cronus converters were banned from Final Round last year for allegedly causing lag and input drops for both players.

Make sure to do your research on that model first.

Word? Hope that's not the case with these. Excitement deflated.

 

[Sixfortyfive]

Honestly, even if that device doesn't cause functional issues, it should probably still be banned from tournaments under the "programmable controller" rules. One of the biggest selling points on the product pages is the many ways it can facilitate custom macros.

 

[El Sloth]

Aw well. I let my excitement get the best of me and posted without thinking about it too deeply. I'll just keep on waiting for an Xbox One "TE Kitty" or something then.

Thanks for the reality check, fellas.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Shame about that. At best it can be for casual / online use.

I don't think that FGC documentary is going to reach its goal :[

is the fgc so poverty that it can't even support a $9000 project by one of our own?

Spoiler

i donated $1.50 though

The pitch was kinda weak IMO. An Ian Coffino type would probably have no problem getting that kind of funding because he'd put out a better proof of concept pitch video.

I've think I've forgotten every Juri setup I've ever learned.

 

[casperOne]

is the 9k set in stone? Like can he go for indiegogo and get some amount less than 9k or has that been discussed?

He actually just spoke to us about that. It's in his plans if this doesn't work out.

To elaborate on what SJCage wrote, from Esteban, he is considering creating an indiegogoproject if the full $9K isn't funded on Kickstarter. If it goes in that direction, then the preliminary details are as follows:

• Stick to shooting schedule listed in the KS description.
• Take some time to flesh out the premise and film content (interviews, extra footage, events, etc)
• Take the information obtained from the KS (critiques, comments, reception, backer rewards, etc) and rework/streamline them a bit.
• Have weekly content to promote during the campaign

New game's coming out. Gotta relearn anyway, lol.

See, I don't think it's solvable ... look at sites with Facebook comment systems. Real names, "Liked" comments float to the top, and you've still got plenty vile commentary to go around. You do see more people getting called out for stupidity, but it doesn't go away...

I don't know how you would change the design of twitch chats to prevent people from being stupid. Twitch encourages it by making it so easy to make new accounts. Sub chat has already been done.

I think the only real 'solution' to it is to get better moderators.

Can't wait for Audi and Mazda to start pulling videos of my cars offline because they made my car.

 

[onionfrog]

Dumb question:

Does twitch allow you to seperate individual matches? Or do archives always have to be in huge chunks?

Bahahaha!

Yes, they allow
That might be the future for these YouTube guys

All Assist Me videos or just certain ones?

But Morrigan is next on Assist Me!.....

If it's only Assist Me videos any chance it's Marvel not liking the Doom infringement?

 

[riskVSreward]

Its time for a new YouTube to appear. The king is dead, all hail the king!

 

[Clawww]

Sorry, we have to purchase converters for players now? When did this become a thing? I still have my PS2>PS3 converters from 2006 when I used to play. It's the player's responsibility to convert their sticks and pads, not the TO's.

Right. TO's voiding their warranties and shit so kids can use their old controllers? Nah.

 

[ian to the max]

Really hope Twitch (or someone else please dear god someone else) steps up their game if this Youtube thing starts harming replays. Their archives have been atrocious.

The best part is reading this in your mind in Chris' voice.

Still the best FGC .gif I've ever seen. Classic.

Didn't this whole FGC video monetization happen once before? Maybe around the time Gootecks discussed the CC issue? Someone from capcom said it was okay as long as they weren't charging consumers.

the problem is that it won't just be capcom stepping up to the plate, there are already a huge amount of fake claims/content ID trolling to try and scoop up the revenue illegitimately.

I would hope someone would be able to step it up as well. Right now, Twitch seems like the logical contender, but I feel that they have a number of issues (both technical, and I don't mean just streaming, say, API for example and UX related) that they need to improve dramatically to make it close to providing what YouTube does in the VOD space.

That said, even if Twitch did rise up, that wouldn't stop companies that have claim to the original content from leveraging claims against whatever new service pops up and becomes the service du jour and taking the content down there.

If a company is going to be aggressive enough to protect their IP, they're not just going to go after it on YouTube, they're going to go after it everywhere that has a monetization model in place (which Twitch does).
