Evil Eden	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:24:00 - [6] Edited by: Evil Eden on 23/06/2007 11:25:42 i signed up and got around the first 3-4 minutes free, cut off when spiral was interviewing Hellmar, guess should have chosen the 250k option and probs had lag or whatever :/ o well p.s Originally by: Ravelin Eb You only get 20 credits on signup, i watched 4 minutes of awesomeness awesomeness? it didnt seem awesome to me tbh, Amateur presenting, the 4 minutes I could watch felt very very scripted and very monotone.. I thought they were reporting someoneÆs death :/

Elissen Amarr The Arrow Project	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:27:00 - [8] Please let me know when your providers fixes the buffering issues, or you switch provider. I'm not going to watch it if that player is incapable of playing the stream without giving up. At the lowest quality it plays for less then 5 seconds and then stops the screen to start buffering again. ---- Weeks of programming can save you hours of planning.

Sarah Meiskin Fatalix Inc.	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:28:00 - [9] I'm only 15min in atm... I've just got to mention one suggestion for the next episode... Keep the eyes up! More than 70% of the time, the announcers are looking down at their papers, and we're staring at them what almost looks like their eyes closed. Could have used a bit of B-Roll during the Hellmar interview. Seemed a bit plain. Other than that, I love the media presented... the so far havn't been the most "biggest" things, but that's all good :P The graphical displays are simple yet perfectly suit the mood and idea of the show. I await Episode 2 :) --- Those who say the blind cannot lead cannot see beyond their own noses.
Greme Amarr Slacker Industries Exuro Mortis	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:28:00 - [10] Hmm, little niggly thing here. During the Player meet interview, it would have been a bit nicer to have the interviewees names sit at the bottom of the screen whilst they are talking for a bit of recognition. There were alot of interviewees which had me going "Who the hell are they?"

Evil Eden	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:29:00 - [11] Edited by: Evil Eden on 23/06/2007 11:34:34 p.s if you watch the first 4 minutes then get cut off, then you get more credits (if you get 200 more in ya mail) do you have to pay for the first 4 minutes again? so if you want to rewatch episode one do you have to pay again? grrr i tried to watch it again and skip the first 4 miutes id see, and the video stream got stuck yet the sound was ok, i waited a minute and gave up, closed the page, reloaded, logged in again and my credits had gone down :/ so looks like you do have to pay to watch again, or if the web page crashes... too bad you have to pay all over :/ alteast make the episode downloadable to you pay and you can watch half now half later, or even rewatch without wasting money....
Kretin JuBa Corp Vigilance Infinitas	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:32:00 - [12] Any chance in this ú11mill studio you have hired that you can find an autocue/teleprompter to put near the camera, as having the presenters spend most of the time looking down at there notes just makes you look unprofessional and tbh is irritating.
LoxyRider Body Count Inc. Mercenary Coalition	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:34:00 - [13] Originally by: Kretin Any chance in this ú11mill studio you have hired that you can find an autocue/teleprompter to put near the camera, as having the presenters spend most of the time looking down at there notes just makes you look unprofessional and tbh is irritating. Please remember this is a pilot, the autocue issue will be fixed as best as we can in the next episode.
By Design Brutal Incorporated	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:41:00 - [14] LOTS of audio screw ups, whoever your engineer is, fire him immediately. There's far too much variance in speaking volumes, most notably in Spiraljunkie's interview with Hellmar. You need compression and someone to actually change the microphone's volumes. Audio is not set and forget, much like the camera. A bit lacking in content, hell who am I kidding, a lot lacking in content. But my major gripe is post production, especially the audio. Work on that and your presentation skills and you might have something work the price. As it stands I can find more substance and more entertainment in the midday soap operas.
bigred monkey Sphere Systems Knights Of the Southerncross	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:44:00 - [15] loved the show but was a little disappointed in a couple of things..... 1) everything in eve moves at a quick pace i know, but the big event everyone is talking about in locals at mo is the destruction of a titan in 0.0, surley a special news broadcast wouldnt have taken long to knock-up??? 2) emotions people!! the broadcasters looked a little 'yeah yeah' to me, and could spiral of been any nicer asking about the cheating issue, could we please have some tough questions for the dev's next time? i wonder what would of happened if spiral had just asked ' what is your response to allegations of corruption amongst some of the devs and major allaince?' dont think hellmar would of seemed so comfortable then! but on a side note, it is definatley a good thing, i shall be a avid watcher in future and look forward to the many interesting stories you are liable to follow Congratualtions, your signature broke all of our signature size rules - exceeding the maximum allowed dimensions of 400x120 pixels and filesize of 24000 bytes -Timmeh ([email protected])
N1fty Amarr Dead Reckoning Corp	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:47:00 - [16] Spent all that money but couldn't afford an autocue? Liked the mercenary coalition story, that bit actually sounded professional and I would pay money for future reports of that quality. And then during the pub meet report I accidently hit backspace and went back to the previous page. Found I couldn't jump back where I left off and missed the end. Waits for it to appear on youtube Did manage to see my friend eatingYak though, woo fame and glory! ============================================
Mythrell Minmatar Omega Enterprises Mostly Harmless	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:54:00 - [17] As someone noted earlier, please try to improve your sound levels for the whole episode. Every clip had different levels and Halmar was louds as hell, so it adds that extra difficulty level for following interviews, specially when you aren't that fluent in english. But yeah, overall I think it's a great idea, I'm not going to pay for it tho.
R3dSh1ft Dark Knights of Deneb Against ALL Authorities	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:54:00 - [18] I have to say I really enjoyed the show. Favorite part was the MC coverage. Was also nice to see players meeting - agree with a poster above we like to see the interviewees' player names on screen. Still a tad expensive for me, I won't be able to watch the next episode, but good luck. _________________________________________________________ DKOD - an awesome synchronised killing machine
Mr Vrix Pegasus Mining and Securities R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.06.23 11:55:00 - [19] As a first episode,not to bad really. Hopefully people will not have dissected every second of the show to justify why they are not paying for it, time will tell. I do suspect in amongst that you will find people with experience and offer advice. If people remember, this is afterall a first show, with new presenters, new way of doing things etc. Spiral looks the most relaxed due to previous experience so can only get better for everyone I had no problems with watching the show at 500k, never stopped once or faltered. Wondering what the next tournament will look through this though, will see. Obvious points as mentioned above, we want to see ya cute face Stevie, not looking down at the paperwork, that will be sorted though so only a minor thing. Someone mentioned the audio, it did vary for myself also, maybe needs looking into. Again minor thing,easily fixed. London meet, nice to see people, but a few did have their questions cut off. Hopefully it was to demonstrate the potential of whats to come rather than being polished up etc. Most interesting part for myself, was Fangtooth. I can see this developing into an interesting section each week. You can tell you have not played to much yet, looking to see the way you describe the game as you progress differently. I have a suspicion the help your going to be offered within the game is going to propell you into some interesting encounters hehe. Crunch question, will I be paying each week to watch the show? Honest answer, not got a clue yet. Taking the first show at face value, pilot episode, with things I am sure your all aware of, its a great idea, unique to online games, and I am sure you will more than cover the costs etc. by people who will watch teh show and never even bother to come by the forums to be disuaded.
R3dSh1ft Dark Knights of Deneb Against ALL Authorities	Posted - 2007.06.23 12:02:00 - [20] Also forgot to say Jalipo didn't have any buffering problems for me (in the UK here). Although I would still hope the team are looking into a downloadable/paypal solution. _________________________________________________________ DKOD - an awesome synchronised killing machine

Mythrell Minmatar Omega Enterprises Mostly Harmless	Posted - 2007.06.23 12:09:00 - [21] oh, forgot to add that buffering thingy with 1024/512 ADSL that 1000k stream was buffering every now and then (once per 30-60 seconds that's prolly due to my ISP's not so stable transfer rate) but the 500k stream worked just fine, ppl might want to try and see at lower rate if they have buffering issues in future too.
Jark Mennings Save our Souls	Posted - 2007.06.23 12:10:00 - [22] No buffering for me, worth watching again. And 5o5 got a mention
Evil Eden	Posted - 2007.06.23 12:12:00 - [23] First show was ok, the MC part was the best, mainly because it sounded and looked fairly professional, the interview in the pub meet... she was umm and arring a lot, ok sheÆs new, sheÆs nervous but still, if you expect us to pay for this cant you train the presenters in presenting? on paper the weekly shows are great but i think you could have done much more with it. Will I pay for it? Ill watch what I can of the next show and see if any feedback from the forum has been implemented but to be honest major improvements are going to have to be made, the eve subscription is higher than other MMORPGs which I donÆt mind paying for as itÆs a good game, Eve Voice is yet more we pay if we want to use that feature plus we have DT which most other games do not, so thatÆs an hour or so every day, may not seem like a lot but add those hours up = along time were paying for nothing and now we have to pay more if we want to watch Eve TV, how much money do CCP think there customers have?
M'buku Minmatar Black Nova Corp Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.06.23 12:14:00 - [24] Interesting first episode. The Hellmar section could have been a little shorter though. The Jalipo stream itself was faultless unlike the fiasco that went with the PVP championship. It's not much to subscribe and top up your credits to watch the next few episodes. It's an extra and therefore you need to give a little extra. If a little extra sub for a cool valued added extra isn't your thing then don't subscribe. Whining about how upset you are that you dont get it free just tells me you have over important sense of what people should owe you. Signature Your signature has exceeded the 24000 byte limit (by 48 bytes ). -Darth Patches
Stephanie Savill	Posted - 2007.06.23 12:47:00 - [25] Edited by: Stephanie Savill on 23/06/2007 12:47:12 I just watched and enjoyed the first episode, so congrats and thanks to everyone involved. During the news items I particularly liked the way you presented the character portaits with their statements - I think it helps to bring the game alive in the program. Now then, payment. I don't know if this has been mentioned before (apologies if it has) but I do find it a little strange having to use real-life currency to pay for in-game TV. Surely it would be much more fitting to use in-game currency to pay for my weekly in-game TV fix. We have GTC's, how about VTC's (View Time Cards). If I could use isk to pay for Eve Tv I would certainly become a weekly subscriber. I have always been a strong supporter of Eve Tv and I wish you all the very best of luck with it.
Seleene Body Count Inc. Mercenary Coalition	Posted - 2007.06.23 12:57:00 - [26] Notes as I am watching: Spiral looks like he needs some sleep! Freighter ganks 4TW. Nice report. I would have liked to see a bit more coverage of the SHC gank night. I hope this becomes a regular feature as it's always entertaining. The interview with Hellmar was interesting. I'm still curious to see how this Council thing works out. Guess I'll head over the "highlights" section to see the rest of it. The 505 report was fun and a nice surprise focusing on something other than the giant WAR. OMG EVE CARDS GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL!! MC Profile - Very nicely done. I'm sure these will get better and better as time goes on. Hopefully you'll revisit some of the alliances as the program evolves. The London meet - Fortuna is smokin'! Farjung still needs a haircut and I saw Hygelac!! I agree with the comments about putting the players names at the bottom of the screen. LOL @ the guy who was so drunk he could barely pronounce his alliance name. And there's Hardin... Mr. Public Relations! Laythun - I agree about Stan - he's a bald lunatic. EVE's first Community Manager was <bleep>. General comments - The presenters do need to work on not looking at their notes so much. Either improvise a bit more or do the teleprompter thing. I was running the 500k stream and the audio was a bit uneven but not that bad. At about 25:55 it was seriously low though. Question - On stuff like the Alliance Profiles, will those be gathered into a 'special features' page at some point? I'd love to be able to show those to people without having to watch the entire broadcast again. Will these broadcasts ever be able to be downloaded in whole or in part? Overall, a great first effort. I'm sure it will only get better with time. - OWN A PIECE OF HISTORY!
Skyren Prison Break Inc.	Posted - 2007.06.23 12:58:00 - [27] I quite enjoyed it but as others have said there were some downfalls. I was highly surprised to find i'll have to pay for future episodes, i've already tried buying some and it kept not letting me but i'll try again later. Where is the humor though people? i know you want to create a professional news show yet the one thing that made me watch the alliance torney was Spiral and others laughing and joking as it was entertaining. I'm also missing the dinosaur. just me 0.02ISK
Kirja Rage and Terror Against ALL Authorities	Posted - 2007.06.23 13:06:00 - [28] I've got a mixed feeling about show. It does feel amateurish but at the same time people did try to create something interesting. Addressing concerns mentioned by other posters in this topic would help (especialy regarding reportes not watching into the camera). I have a question though... What prevents me from registering new account each time i run out of credits? :D
Lord Matrix PBA Corporation	Posted - 2007.06.23 13:21:00 - [29] I've just finished watching the show at 1000kbps and I must say it was without any buffering whatsoever for the entire length. The speech side of the audio was a bit weird. I guess you need some practice with the audio equipment (frequency filtering). The most interesting part was the presentation of the MC alliance, I really liked that part and I would like to see it being a bit longer in the future. The presenters behind the desk were looking down most of their time, probably reading. It's not about being professional, it's about being able to remember a few lines of text. Since this show isn't live, you have plenty of time to learn those lines. If the show is going to be as short as it was (only 30 minutes), I suggest you remove the player meetings from the show. Fanfest is ok, but everything else I think is a waste of a very precious time you have. You were lacking fresh content (things we don't already know about). We all know about suicide gangs in empire and we all know about various empire wars against major alliances. This are not news to me. The whole show gave me an impression like it was made for someone who doesn't know EVE and not for players who have been playing for more than a few months and can already be considered being a part of the EVE community. This is not as important, but I think some optional subtitles would be in order since most of your presenters are speaking with a British accent which is very hard to understand. I will be watching the show next week to see how the improvements will be like.
Hermia HIVE O X I D E	Posted - 2007.06.23 13:29:00 - [30] First show was good for me. Pleased that the stream didn't pack up after fully expecting it to. I thought the information presented was relevant to a wide audience, however i wish the style was less wooden. Less CNN and more FOX news. good show all!
