Announcing Battle of the Beasts, The First Official Planetary Annihilation Tournament

I've heard varying things about this one, but since i've been unable to repro it......
You get the picture, i think.

Does Gunshin run any mods?

Shouldn't you be off getting a nose ring?

We should avoid playing on systems with a moon around a moon from now.

Great tournament, I really enjoyed watching what I could yesterday. But I missed some.

Will the matches be watchable on YouTube as well? Twitch is a bit slow and laggy.

ps. Great casting, too.

I disagree - they are often the most fun and dynamic systems.

It cannot be helped that some people just don't play orbital enough.

nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu not my centuurion!!!!!! ... T^T

I demand that Godde and Giggle start Twitch streams so I can live the Beast Commander through them.

So did Uber announce the tweet winner for the videocard yet? ^^

For some reason they seem to be keeping that information close to the chest. I can imagine why....but I'd rather not.

If you want to know I suggest watching the final match. It was pretty awesome.

I did, but did they actually announce a winner? I don't remember.

The people who won the final match got the graphics cards.

A couple of questions.

Could Gunships finally have their own icon? Simply flipping the actual icon upside down would already work since Gunships can be stationary nearby the target, therefore do not fly as fixed wings air vehicles do, anyway.

Are you planning to release the replays of the official tournaments, so that other players will be able to better analyze the match and learning how to improve their game? That would highly enhance the experience and value of Tournaments in general.

There was also a post that if you retweet Ubers tweet you have also a chance to win a videocard.

By the way, congrats for winning the 2v2v2, you sneaky nuker!

But were the Halleys bugged? Yellow could have smashed into you...

There's lots of issues with strategic icons.

I hope they completely redo them once they finish the unit roster.

Edit: the matches are already available online. You can see them on Zaphod's twitch channel or on PA Matches.

They weren't bugged. They just couldn't figure out how to use 'em.

ZaphodX will be putting the videos on YouTube shortly. You can also view them on Twitch right now.

Use transparent icons until then.

But I actually like the icons already. It just a bit confusing distinguishing Gunships from Fighters at glance, until they actually move and attack something.

About the icons in general, I find them very useful. I rarely zoom in so that I can see the units themselves.

Guys, we totally forgot this, Team Brad won. @forrestthewoods, it's time for you to get your first piercing.
