Week 10 - Online Gaming Communities

As technology improves, so does online games, and as the games and quality of the products improves, there will always come an increase in users. As a result, modern gaming communities are some of the largest online communities with several social platforms geared specifically towards gaming, such as Discord. But you can’t talk about social gaming platforms without content creation, which is where streaming platforms such as twitch.tv come in.

With the rise of video streaming sites like YouTube, there was becoming a demand for platforms that allowed users to play and talk to viewers in real time, as well as for competitions and tournaments to have a way for online spectators to view the matches as they’re happening as opposed to after they happen.

With players and viewers able to enjoy the content at the same time, naturally communities will form on these platforms to share in the experiences with each other. Taylor talks about how Twitch allows streamers to “mix together gameplay, humor, commentary, and real- time interaction with fans and audiences” (Taylor 2018).

An example of an online community here in Australia is the “Australian Anime Fighting Game Community”, a community of players who congregate on Discord to share their love of games. One of the biggest benefits of these online communities is how they allow people to find others with these interests online, and then meet with one another in person at events such as Battle Arena Melbourne.

Thanks for checking out my blog and hopefully you learned something over the last 8 weeks about digital citizenship.

2017 Year in Review - Blog Revival? Part 2 - SFV

Back again for Part 2 and Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!

By far my most active game this year was SFV, entering many leagues, attending many locals and travelling to quite a few Asia tournaments.

May not be that well known but SFV S1 had me questioning whether I was going to stick around in fighting games or take a long break. Despite winning the S1 Couchwarriors ranbat league, the 8 frames of lag was a huge annoyance for me as a defensive player. S1 had me bugging out with how ridiculously easy strategy wise it was to play some of the top tier characters. 

Thankfully the minor lag reduction & S2 re-balance patch gave me hope of better days. S2 saw the rebirth of Dictator as an actual threat, no more getting abused by Chun/Mika/Ryu & v-reversals into set play so I decided to stick it out and see where it takes me.

It took me places I’d never been, like Taiwan

Dark Sided

So I started off the year 2017 by joining up with team Dark Sided.  One of the major reasons for doing so is that I saw all the great things they had been doing with ZG & Falco and they were proving that they were an organisation that cares about the local FGC. I’d been sponsored before, but it was a very hands off affair that never really went anywhere. I was originally concerned about a similar situation but Dark Sided not only proved themselves as a great team but a team that actually cares about their players. 

If you wanna check out the year Dark Sided has had, click the link below. Lots of great moments!

Hyper Magazine

The next big thing that happened in 2017 was pretty much a life achievement. I used to read Hyper Magazine as a kid at my local news agency and I never imagined I’d be featured in an article. Needless to say I’ve kept a few copies to reminisce about when I’m old and retired (just old right now, not retired just yet).

Battle Arena Melbourne 9

The first major tournament that I attended in the year came around in May. 

The global Capcom Pro Tour Premiere Battle Arena Melbourne 9. I was doing quite well online and locally so my confidence levels were up there.

It’s also the first time I’ve got an interview on Capcom Fighters, which was an awesome experience

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FI_tXf-zTx4

There was one major problem I didn’t account for though... for the first time in about 10 years I lost my keys on the way home on Friday night, the day before the tournament.

My spare keys were with my partner who was sleeping, far away & had work early in the morning so I was pretty screwed.

After about an hour of trying to break into my own place, I walked to the nearest motel at around 3-4am to get a few hours of sleep before the tournament started the next day. Needless to say the motel wasn’t exactly the greatest place to sleep but I did manage to get around 3 hours.

Next day my partner let me into my place and I was able to go get my keys. Rocking up to the tournament feeling like trash, I was knocked into losers in a relatively close match vs Tokido. Once in losers, BKsama’s Urien eliminated me. BKsama took me out and had a really close match vs Gamerbee next, just falling short of taking him out.

The main lesson learned here is always check for your keys - and if you do happen to lose them you have to try extra hard to stay on point (or get a lot of decent sleep) because the best players will notice and body you systematically.

Infiltration visiting Melbourne at BAM9

As a long time fan of Bonchan’s Sagat in USF4, it was amazing to see him run through the brackets at BAM9 and take out the event with a nerfed Nash. Especially when it was against such a strong Cammy player too!

The grand finals were sick and you can review them at the link below

Stay tuned for the next part! I’ll have it up in the next couple of days.
