New Possible TotalBiscuit Match to Promote Sin's Multiplayer

A chance to show him the Sins MP the right way

So after seeing his first stream and how he was a bit disappointed with the very slow pacing of his online game. He was playing FFA with just normal settings and frankly it didn't go so well for him or really anybody in general.

So I tweeted him and invited him to try again with us 1-4 year veterans in a 5v5 match up.

He actually agreed to it to the possibility. Though it won't be this weekend but at a later date. Problem is that if we do go through. My worry is that TB will just be slaughtered unless we can try to keep everybody at bay. I am unsure if we should try a custom map or go through with the random map.

Thoughts/Concerns?

I am being very optomistic about the situation.

If he could boost the popularity of this game maybe stardock could get more funds to help improve the game as well:)

Quoting DirtySanchezz,
I was just thinking that.  It would be just our luck that Total Biscuit's game would minidump on him.

It would be hilarious.

Oh dear lord. Hopefully ICO and the game won't do that to us.

Then we have to give him the "it's a beta" excuse

But then he would check the forums and know that we are lying through our teeth.

If only that wasn't true. To be frank I had only 2 minidumps since beta 2 came out so it seems to be getting better.

Quoting RedDwarf999,
While TotalBiscuit is a fair reviewer he seems to gravitate towards first person type of action.  He liked Space Pirates And Zombies and Tribes Ascend as examples.  (He did not like Snuggle Truck so much.   )  From the videos he has on YouTube he spends a lot of time in StarCraft 2.  So he likes action.  

 

Yes true, however he does review lots of indie/lesser known titles and loves them. It's not like he does Triple A titles only or FPS only. Quite the opposite, for instance he loved Terraria.

In my experience, which is limited, minidump happens early in the game, quit later on.

hmm i've had minidumps occur at no regular pattern at all.  If there was a regular pattern i'm sure the devs would have an easier time dealing with this bug.
