ROAD TO GA 2K12.

@ Drunkze et Mafia, je me suis assez avancé dans les protests et support. A vous de jouer maintenant, j'ai du train à rattraper :O

ESL is killing the Battlefield 3 scene with ridiculous restricted tournaments like this. The European community is unable to compete against each other because every tournament on this website is region restricted. EPS is German only and played at the exact same time as the Go4BF3 tournament so no German teams can play in Go4, whilst some of the best EU 8v8 teams can't compete in EPS because of the German restirction.

Now we have this tournament which is some of the best prizes seen on this league and the majority of the community is left out because it is French only. Prize tournaments like this should be highly competitive, large tournaments. They should not be contested between 3 teams, all from France, who are the only skilled players in the entire tournament.

"But tbh, i think any EU teams can't reach a top 5 in this tournament."

Well that's your opinion and obviously teams will be trying to prove you wrong. 8v8 teams won't 'move' from 8v8, they will compete in any tournament and any format providing the prizes are there. Regardless, it is just stupid to restrict the entire EU community from tournaments like this. What is the reason other than circle-jerking the French community at the expense of the rest of us?

@dLIGHT : ESL is only taking care of the online qualifiers on behalf of EA. Most of the prize pool is provided by Futurolans partners. This really hasn't much to do with ESL.

Okay you obviously don't have a clue. I was asking why this tournament is restricted to French teams only, and you reply talking about 8on8 vs 5on5. That isn't even remotely relevant to what I was asking you. THIS is a big 5on5 online / lan tournament. If teams in EU want to play in this and are committed to attending the LAN then they should be allowed to play.

Thanks Tomesch for an actual answer.



Trust me. EU community cares where the money and prizes are, that is all. If tomorrow all prizes for 8on8 was dropped, and 5on5 tournaments like this started appearing everywhere, then the majority of 8on8 teams would come and play them. You're saying the EU community should be punished for some teams not liking 5on5? That's just destructive to the entire BF3 esports scene. It should be a collective European community where teams compete cross-country. It should not be each country jerking themselves off to see whose cum flies the furthest.

@ dLIGHT : Because its the french cup and ESL France is independent of any sections in ESL.

kill every nation section and be it europe, fail shit ger+fra+spa

I think we have already ask for having more 5on5 cups in EU but you're still playing 8on8. Now it's too late for complaining. Maybe if all 8on8 teams leave and go to 5on5 EA and/or other partners will organize something cool in EU.

EA France tournament, not our fault. Same for B2K cup in Germany, was organised by EA Germany.

Now I hope that tournament will start moving the EU teams.

coupe de FRANCE < y u no understand ??

I just saying that ACTUALLY, french team have a lot of advance on .eu teams. And ACTUALLY no one can beat Fr team, because we playing 5v5 since the start of BF3.

Tellement drôle de voir les EU rager pour dire que le 8v8 est le meilleur mode, et dès qu'il y a du 5v5 dans un pays avec des prix conséquent ils commencent à s'en mêler !

You talk a lot, yet you haven't proved anything. We're all waiting for any good 5on5 european teams to perform in that game mode.

And to make things clear, that tournament is supported by EA. ESL did not take any decisions concerning country restrictions.
"Coupe de France" I know it's in french but you can easly understand it's a national event.

Eat what you cooked BF scene. I doubt most of the french teams would stand a chance if there would be LANs like this for the EU teams, the only reason you dominate the 5v5 scene right now is not because France has suddenly become the infantry heavens before BF3's release but because noone gives a shit about 5v5.


Slightly offtopic:
EPS is absolutely ridiculous, with the amount of terrible players in this game there's no way there can be more than 3-4 decent teams in a country for 8v8, have fun in that 'pro' league, we only play 8v8 for fun yet we can dominate most of the EPS teams easily.

1- It's for the French because it's a France Cup, such as football.

2- This event is built by EA FRANCE (FRANCE = ONLY FRENCH), the community manager may be better than in other countries ?

3- We do not underestimate any team, on the contrary we would be happy to have more. Everyone is free to choose his method of play.

This section is French, thank you for speaking only in French and tanks google traduction.

Bisous, Bisous = Kiss, Kiss
