God the future is so fucking retarded
Are games gonna get more or less pozzed now
chess is already an olympic sport.bridge, the card game, is already an olympic sport.
>>683546773>no fpsWhy? They are the highest skill caps games by far.
No speedrunning?
>>683546773>No Q3A
>>683546982Chess is not a video gameCard games are not video games>>683547085They're less of a spectacle than fighting games or MOBAs. Dunno why racing or sports games are on there though. Sounds retarded.
>>683546963More how?
>FPSlop is less important than fucking mobile games
>>683547085There are no good competitive fps.
>>683547172>Chess is not a video game?
>>683546773meet the "athletes"
>>683547172surely you can at least understand that there are certain parallels between chess and bridge being recognizes as sports, and videogames being recognized as sportsdo i really need to spell this out for you?
>>683546773>Saudi Arabia championshipwho cares?It's not Olympics. It's just Saudi shit.
>>683546963If the Saudis are financing it, then games with Olympic ambitions won't be able to put blatant gay tranny shit in.
mahjong when?
>>683547085guns bad (ignore any shooting competitions)
>>683546773WHENS BEYBLADE
>>683547293Yeah, not all athletes look like the Gigachad meme
>>683546773>competitive multiplayer games at the OLYMPICSOoooh boy, if you thought games were censored now just wait until companies have to adhere to whatever the Olympics demand to not be shown.
>>683547363You're not trying to kill each other in shooting competitions.
i can see fighting game, RTS' like starcraft and racing games, but fifa, nba and mobile games?Those are non-skill games.
>>683547389Too edgy.
>>683546982>>683546773Yeah and they shouldn't be either.We don't need to force everything to fit the same event, it's okay to keep them separate.
>>683547272That is a video game that emulates the rules of Chess.>>683547297Okay but Chess isn't a video game? And neither are card games? I dunno what the issue is here.I'm also not opposed to video games being recognized as sports necessarily. It just depends on the game.
>>683547350They'll just not care about the event then lol. Is saudi paying IOC or individual publishers?If they want to stop it they'll need to do a saudi blackrock, and clearly they don't care enough.
>>683546773zoomers are not interested in sports, olympics is pretty much dying out with no bidders so they have to pivot
>>683547085leftists think FPSs are icky as they involve guns
good choice not including shooters.they are nothing but cheaters.valve is a joke for allowing cheaters into tournaments for a decade.fuck fnatic and fuck flusha.
>>683547448That's why nobody watches them.
>>683546773Is that why gaming has been improving?
>>683547085Saudis don't wanna associate with gun games
>>683547293>blown away by a light breeze or possessing their own gravitational pull, the peak athletic physique of the future.
>>683546773This is why gamers should never be allowed to be in charge of a nation and it’s financesThis is Elon musk tier of missing out on a childhood and trying to make it up as an adult
>>683547293for me it's roy
Chess is a 100% skill based game. Anything that has luck shouldn't be in the Olympics. Fighting games are probably fine, but League of Legends and more has too much luck involved aka any.
>>683547508leftists play and love FPS' though? Are you unwell mentally?
>no souls
>>683546982That's pretty retarded. They should lump those types of games and vidya into a seperate event, though games being corporate IPs is also kinda retarded and not the same as something thats over a 100 years old and culturally relevant.
>>683546963the olympics have been the most fucking pozzed thing since 2010
>>683547085everyone cheats >>683547530competitive fps are a joke
>>683547293
>>683547085Arabs don't play FPS.
>>683547487oh, so you made this thread with the sole reason of drumming up (you)s.
>>683547572oh no no no no
>>683547572>luckleague is a ripoff of dota 1. they are not luck based. its skill based but team dependent.
>>683547350It also means games will need to be more woke as SA does not allow Stellar blade tier shit. WWE is forced to make its women pretty much wear burqas. This isn't a positive thing if your dream is to get sexy women back rather than even more censored women.
>>683547293The Greeks are rolling. Brothers, how did it come to this? Some smelly fat basement nerds, the same title as peak physique human beings. This is insanity and all part of the collapse. Enough
Welcome to 2024 how retarded are ya?
>>683547645I'm not OP lol
>>683547389They missed the boat by about 25 years
>>683547487chess is a game. a game that does not require any type of real training of the body. therefore, it is not a sport. but it is a competition, nonetheless and deserves to be apart of the Olympics. the problem with video games in the Olympics is there is no standard of rules as there is a different iteration of that "Sport" within every year.
>>683547671uh... chess sissy bros? our response?
>>683547272Damn the queen's got a body awooga
>>683546963More sanitized definitely.
>>683547671Yeah, Whites are more skilled, as usual. Problem?
>>683546963>country that won't even let female athletes wear normal sporting outfits and instead makes them perform not at their best and at risk of heat stroke because MUH SHARIA!Depends. Is forcing every fighting game character with tits to wear 100% body covering outfits woke or not?
>>683547702Big improvement from tranny Mary janes though, atleast there would be real women
>>683546773>/v/ complains about this but is fine with the stupid fuckign ski-shooting shit and curling
>>683547702I only care about sexy women in single player games, which are obviously not going to be in the Olympics. Multiplayer slop is whatever.
>>683547293>0:42unironic kino
>>683547085>Overwatchdead>Valorant not taken seriously >CSthe Saudis are the ones organizing this. one of the teams in the game is called Terrorists. this should answer your question.>CoDseries got popular by making you kill towelheads
>>683547807That's the prince.
>>683547850Nah, not an improvement at all. You can fuck off and kill yourself, censorship bootlicker
>>683547738Buncha IOC suits saw how much money vidya gaems raked in and said "I want a piece of that."Honor and dignity be damned.
>>683547859Those are at least physical feats. Not that I am going to make any grand argument for them
>>683546773>mobile "games">LOL>no FPSThe absolute state of this god-forsaken world. >>683546963Even more pozzed and retarded beyond repair. I can guarantee you that you will see them at the tardlympics as well.
>>683547751they brought it back
>>683546773>Funded by Saudi>Fighting games will be thereDoes this mean Fatal Fury is going to be at the Olympics? I would actually watch that.
>>683546773I said before and I say it again - there are shitload of things that they need to fix before making videogames into an olympic sport.First of all, make an opensource videogame that anyone can inspect code and fix potential exploits and issues, not to mention opensourcing it ensures that it will be futureproff. Something like Rocket League is a perfect candidate, since it is a mirrored game with no real RNG.Then standardise the environment and tools, just like every other sport has standards for their equipment. Release a docsheet with standards and then sponsor some companies to produce first batch, this will ensure that when people come to play the game, they have periphirals they are familiar with and you can be sure that they didn't bring a fighting stick/mouse/keyboard/gamepad that is loaded with malicious software.But instead we will get commercial products as olympic sports and people can use whatever the fuck they want as their peripherals, ensuring that shit experiment will be shortlived.
>>683547903Idgaf I'm committing lese majesty on that ass
>>683547416>Terunofuji>not a gigantic chad
>>683547923shooting is not a physical feat
>censorship of tits: America>:(censorship of tits: Middle East>INSHALLAH BROTHER PEACE BE UPON ALLAH!!!!!lmao joke of a political affiliation, this site.
>>683546982Chess shouldn't be accepted either, games are games and sports are sports
>>683547172Video games are just virtual copy/simulation of a real GAME. The first VIDEO game was a virtual version of pong.
>>683546773>mobile games
>>683548043uh huh
>>683546773who gives a shit whites already dislike the idea of powerlifting in the olympics because china dominates the categories, it's not worth taking seriously
>>683547572Chess is a solved game. There us no point putting it in the Olympics or even having tourneys
>>683547738Even the regular modern Olympics have always been a sham since the beginning. They started out as "amateur" because it was meant to be an event for rich people to go fuck around and pretend to be the best at something. Over time, it became one of the premier competitions for young athletes, but many Olympic records are still much worse than the world records at professional tournaments that are held by the people that take whatever sport seriously at a pro level. It's never been about sport as much as showboating and spectacle for nations.
>>683546773>Airgun shooting is an olympic sport>Chess is an olympic sport>fucking card games are olympic sports>but vidya can'tHere's your gold medalist bro
>>683548043what
>>683546963More, big exposed tits isn't a good look for something so formal
>>683547389New beyblades suck shit man. Bring back the original designs and then we can talk.
>>683547671Do they play multiple games a match in competitive chess?A draw is basically a loss for white as long as it's a two of three
>>683547508>gunsGuns aren't awesome for the reason you think they are. Ask >>>/k/
>>683547753Tbh, the Olympics is a big hodgepodge of shit that should be broken up into different events.
>>683547859Curling is based, you're a pleb
Hololive only grows stronger.
>Press buttons with thumbsWtf I am an athlete
>>683547358Hopefully never, jesus christ
>>683547085>Why? They are the highest skill caps games by far.RTS has the highest skill ceiling. Some RTS, like Supreme Commander, have effectively no skill ceiling, for humans at least.
>No shooters Giga based, shooters ruined gaming by drawing in normalfags.
>FIFA and 2k when Football and Basketball are already Olympic sports>mobile gameswhat the fug
>>683547994This. Hell, Pong makes more sense to be at the Olympics.
>>683547994This.After seeing how every fucken Valve tourney have hackers, surprised they'd allow video ga->Saudi Arabia money Bros the IOC didn't even ask a question kek
>>683547085>highest cheater ratioftfy
>>683547994They just need to use games with a longstanding competitive community and no current balance updatesShit like CS Source, Brood War, Melee, Third Strike, Tetris, or Rocket League as you said
does anyone even care about the olympics anymore
>>683548510Fucking imagine Melee "athletes" walking in during the Olympics opening ceremony.
>>683546773We really live in a Idiocracy
>>683546773why are the Saudis trying so hard to improve their image with gamers of all people?
>>683546773Why is everyone here such a doomer faggot? Ten years ago this place would've been positive about this. /pol/ ruined this site with culture war bullshit
>>683548663Because their princes like video games and western stuff and they want to be able to indulge.

>>683548681You are a tard. This topic was brought up constantly over the last 10+ years and its always been laughed at here.
>>683547085Maybe arena shooters but not the current multiplayer games that everyone plays
If you force players to be grouped by their nationality I feel like that's really gonna skew the results.Curious how they end up structuring this
>>683546773
>>683548063I hate trannies even more
>>683548663every young man in the west is into video games. this just bolsters their soft power and perhaps even makes people more open to Islam

>>683546773Street Fighter at the Olympics baby!!!
>>683547702>It also means games will need to be more woke as SA does not allow Stellar blade tier shit. But they did?

>>683548681>me 10 years ago>"gaming is not a sport and unfit for Olympics"Looks like it hasn't changed I don't get why you being up shit like chess or shooting either. I don't think that's a sport for the Olympics too

>>683549241Hayao becoming the first gold medalist 3rd Strike player would be incredible
>>683549309They're technically allowed, just that no one's been skilled enough to pull off a Hadoken yet.
>>683549274Also Saudis backed up Stalled Blade I think, so I don't think they're against hot women as much as westerners are
>>683547508https://www.wertle.com/Imagine having such a high opinion of yourself, without having worked on a single good game. It's all slop that's listed here.
>>683547836>Is forcing every fighting game character with tits to wear 100% body covering outfits woke or not?Saudi's own SNK and they've shown that they absolutely do not give a single fuck about that kind of stuff. Capcom is the one that's been doing that kind of stuff.
>ignoring basic hygiene is going to be a legitimate Olympic strategy
>>683546773>Dogshit like NBA2K and FIFA>No Counter StrikeThat's retarded if true. >>683547085>They are the highest skill caps games by far.They aren't. The difficulty in competitive games is not only mechanical skill but also treating limited information and coming up with strategies on the fly. Considering that DotA 2 is by far the highest skill cap game imo. >inb4 RTSIt is up there but they don't have as many variables and strategy checks. You scout one or a few times what's the enemy plan, gamble or not on a build then it's mostly execution.

>>683547938I haven't thought about Bayblades in years. How does this shit work as a competitive sport? Isn't it just randomly banding into each other?
do people even respect olympic competitions?I don't keep up with that kinda shit but I do watch basketball and hockey from time and time and any time I see the olympics brought up it's always treated as a joke due to either the professionals playing and the teams getting stupidly stacked, or them sitting out/not being allowed in and them being a lower class to actual professional playI guess it's different for solo things like swimming or track idk

This is soft power and influence, the Saudis are playimg the long game. All that oil wont last and they are seeking other avenues of influence. The less American buisnesses and corporations have influence over entertainment across the globe, the weaker their propaganda becomes. This is how how you fight non physical wars. You are fighting for the minds of the people which now consist of thr global villiage e.g. the world.
>>683547530Nah niggers just get shit on in shooting games so run away to their retarded MOBA shit gamesI’ll say that RTS are the most “skilled” genre and I mean big brained like chess. But they could easily take hacks out of shooting games for the esports. They can do it for every other genre. And I’m not entirely convinced MOBAs don’t have cheaters.
>>683548578>no wonder why cops are killing y'all, they doing us all a favorJesus
>>683550335Yeah so Gaming is an Olympic sport in the IOC, nothing changes the topic
>>683546773wtf I should start training for the olympics right this second
>>683550053Depends on the event.There are certain team sports like Basketball where people clearly care more about regional competition than international stuff, but for the most part it is going to be the biggest event of the year for competitors. It's not like hundreds of thousands of people are tuning in to see whatever is going on in Handball leagues, but you can bet your ass that millions will be seeing the gold medal game in that event.Same applies to solo events, but in that case the importance of the medals is more reliant on the country you come from rather than the event (unless it's something really high profile like sprints). If you're from a country that regularly wins buckets of medals you can get lost in the shuffle, but win even a bronze/silver while reping a literal who country or one that doesn't perform well and you can turn into an overnight national hero (and more importantly, get a shitload of endorsement deals that'll set you for life).

>>683546773Olympics are for physical strength and endurancegames require neither
>>683550053i enjoy the olympics a lot but it's mostly for the niche sports that I otherwise wouldn't watcholympic hockey is typically a complete farce bc the NHL usually doesn't allow most players to go compete for it (which is understandable bc it is during the NHL season). International basketball is just dumb, it's always just a "gee maybe the US will choke" competition which is hilarious when it happens but it's generally garbage
Obviously they have no clue what video games are even about, who the fuck paid them for this farce?
>>683546773it's not in the summer olympics they're just making their own esports event basically and hosted in great glorious saudi arabia for the next decade because that's a great idea

>>683548578i actually feel somewhat bad for the buck boys. on the internet it's just pajeets/blacks/latrinox who spam bbc or a literal paid drug addict whore who is saying it but not meaning it. meanwhile actual black women are out there putting them down with the most cruel comments possible saying cops killing them is good. you have to pay a drug addict prostitute money to get her to say something like that while the black girl does it from her heart.
>>683546773Poetry used to be in the Olympics too.They ought to bring back some of the brainier shit while they're at it.
>>683552786>>683551120Proves my point
If you pay the IOC enough money, they will make reading an Olympic sport.
>>683552997i would watch olympic chess
>>683551528you're wanting the foods sir?
>>683546773Gaming should be banned, not promoted.

>>683547085>aim at head rly fast>highest skill caplmao shut the fuck up retard. they are ridden with cheaters because there is almost nothing more to excelling at the genre than aim
do the saudis realize how dumb this isthe way that most esports circuits work this will just be another tournament and yet they felt the need to throw bribe money at the IOC for it
>>683550053I hope my picture answer your question.
>>683550053a lot of the major sports in the olympics are just defacto U-20 meme tournaments, divegrass and hockey especiallythe kino is in all the other stuff
>>683546773They're trying to appeal to kids way too hard. Between this, Snoop Dog carrying the torch for the final leg, and dropping Karate because it's not interesting enough, the Olympics is really losing all their esteem as a serious sporting event.
>>683550592Theres also location altitude makes a big difference in how fast you can run and how high you can jump
>>683553371Saudis have unlimited money to do this as well as unfinished and ridiculous architectural projects. They literally bribed FIFA for the World Cup (fully confirmed) and the one thing that happened was "promise it won't happen again lol". They are idiots with too much money trying to put their legacy in every pie but they're part of the global elite - thing is, they're on a time limit. Their land is inhospitable and getting hotter every year, the oil wont last forever, so they need to branch,

Say goodbye to Juri being barefoot in the next SF games.
Why is SA investing so much on gaming?
>>683553882oh my god are they still working on that?
>>683554063yeah the only national teams I can think of are Spirit and VP in cs2, and that's mainly because people are being faggots about the heckin russians so nobody else will have them
>>683547085>They are the highest skill caps games by far.
>>683548663>why are the Saudis trying so hard to improve their image with gamers of all people?The Crown Prince is unironically a gamer. I shit you not he used to import Neo Geo games because he loved the system.
>>683554285oh also astralis is all danish but>astralis
>>683554343and now Saudis are funding the new game made by the old metal slug guys, funny old world
>>683548663Saudis are throwing their oil money into all kinds of other investments so their entire kingdom doesn't go tits up if oil prices crater again

>>683552475honestly though would the olympics put on a better tournament than those that valve ran for the international in 2016-2019? i doubt it. this olympics tournament is going to be a joke and i cannot fathom why anybody would care. I am already struggling with todays commentators in esports being family friendly and genuinely really booring to listen to. can't imagine sitting there and watching counter-strike at the olympics were the objective is to murder the other team whilst the commentators aren't allowed to swear
>>683550547Damn if only a society existed where you just hit women when they're being whiny cunts.
>>683554441I'm of the opinion that it was Metal Slug that enchanted the prince into gaming with its comical Arabic themes.
>>683547085>They are the highest skill caps games by far.Those are DOTA and RTSGo see one of the autists that have been playing Age of empires since the early 2000s to see what absolute autism looks like

>>683554040>>683554137Whiter than you, mutts
An observation: most videogames are team v team while the vast majority of olympic games are individual feats like who runs the fastest who jump the highest or whatever.How do you incorporate, say, lol or DotA? Do you run a tournament? Doesn't sound anything like an olympic event
>>683554873This dudes anatomy is so fucked, he just puts shit through a low res filter and markets it as "80's style."

>>683554959>This dudes anatomy is so fuckedSo is real anatomy.
how much money do these ngas have from oil?everytime i hear about them there doing some big ass plays like its nothing
You wanna add games ina olympics then you have to use an Olympic Game. Flip open the cover of an nes and pop in Track n Field. LoL
>>683555048>flexibility =/= bizarre proportions
>>683554804you mention 2016-2019 but we're 2024 so it's possible it's better than the tournaments they ran in 2021-2023 and even 2024 lol. saudi already hosted a couple kino dota2 events that were the great. last year the highest paying event was the saudi sponsored event for dota2 not the valve international. i think saudi's can do it if gets in, but i'm not sure if dota will get in. riot will probably pay them money do the handshake and valve retard faggots will sit on their hands then vent their impotence after the fact.
>>683547350Yep, eswc seemed pretty clean. Seems like Saudi has become the place for eSports now.

>>683554185Everyone else has pulled out of esports because viewers don't wanna pay for it.These sand people are retarded as fuck. As soon as their oil money stops they'll go back to mud huts. Look up that "line" project
>>683554941i mean most olympic sports are already in a tournament formatbut esports do not have national teams, and most games' esports scenes have incredibly mixed international teams these days. So it would be very weird and stupid

They're one of the few reliable sources in the middle east who haven't devolved into a total warzone and they sell to everybody.The recent uptick in weird projects and investments is because, to their credit, SA knows they can't survive on oil demand forever. Execution is lacking, however. There doesn't seem to be any well established plan other than "throw money at things until it returns a profit".

>>683555484No my point is that IRL deformities in anatomy also happen and I think your nitpick isn't valid. If you said the leg could be improved then I wouldn't have an issue, but you dismissed all the work because you come across as nothing will do but absolute perfection.
>>683555673if you look up beijing 2008 swimming highlights you'll see them, they were like onsies (I'm only talking about the men's events, i have no idea if the women had them too)I think nike made them but I might be wrong. There were extensive studies done later on that found they were complete bullshit to wear against a swimmer not wearing one. The one relay where USA and France finished 1/2 and both smashed the previous WR by like 20 seconds is what prompted that lel

>>683556517I'm not applying absolute perfection, most 80's anime did NOT have the exact same issues I'm bitching about, I'm calling out this faggot for marketing garbage as "80's style" to appeal to retro retards like you. Imagine it without the filter, does it still look 80's to you?

>>683547753>the problem with video games in the Olympics is there is no standard of rules as there is a different iteration of that "Sport" within every year.This is operating on the premise that the videogame changes every year. For all you know it'll just be 40 years of nothing but the first NBA Jam game.
>>683557406A big ceremony where all the nations come together to show off is a good thing. The olympics in its current state is shit.

>>683556794Well it's more like >these physical activities and sports show tremendous levels of skill. We should make a tournament for this Of course the advertising and branding around that is true, but it came second. The sports themselves also are free entities. Sure fifa "owns" the largest football competition and league, but it doesn't OWN football. You can go play that right now anytime and do what you want with it, it's Pure, but a video game isn't, you're always signing a contract to play no matter whatAnd now to build on that, video games entry into the Olympics, in 2024:>we will give you an insane financial number to include this medium using the brands/games that we allowYeah, not quite the same you agree?
>>683557332>USA Swimming, the national governing body for swimming as a sport, welcomes the new regulations.Usa always jealous of the bugs
>>683556794Basketball isn't the brand. Sponsorships are different from the sport itself being a brand. If you want to swim you go to any large body of water or practice karate at any dojo or ice skating at any rink. You want to compete here you play Overwatch™ and League of Legends™ and Call of Duty™. Evo is already used extensively to push the newest fighting games as a way to promote the game itself. Beach volleyball and diving isn't like that.

>>683558436and if you want proof of that you can see if you can find videos of the 2008 US olympic trials, they weren't wearing them. Might be hard to find on YT tho bc that was a long time ago now thothose suits were very new at beijing but they def already existed during qualifying
>>683558531It was a thing for the Tokyo Olympics because people were already paranoid as fuck about COVID shit, so they discouraged possibly spreading it around like an STD through the people in the OV fucking all over the place.

>>683557306Why is Sumo still not an official event there and why isn't it more popular internationally? It's genuinely the only sport I give a shit about, mainly because of the lack of external media circus faggotry around it.

>>683562073Sorry that I don't I'm not familiar with where you live, europoorWhatever it is, I'm pretty sure it's some irrelevant country where gay sex is legal>Look at your neighboring cunts for a reference of how you would've lived had it not been for lucky spawn on tons of oil, and country unshitholing itself by sheer luck doesn't sound like a good reason to be this proud of it.Yes, thanks for admitting that my country isn't a shithole like yours
>>683546773>LoL>no Dotabesides that, aren't the top teams in LoL not allowed to compete outside of their own tournament? I heard in the recent EWC they had the D teams playing for millions of dollars.
>>683563191Probably because lel is more well known, also riot bux.
>>683561479Two countries, there's a lot of competitive Mongolian sumo wrestlers apparently
>The N1 Grand Prix will happen in our lifetimeBATTLE NETWORK GODS IT'S FINALLY OUR TURN
>>683546773>mobile games???
>>683563191>I heard in the recent EWC they had the D teams playing for millions of dollars.no?
>>683563536Blah blah blah, cry me a river, europoor.
>fightan games are a-ok>but no shootan gamesokay, this is already pretty funny>mobile gamesAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>683546773>iRacing is allowed but actual racing isn'tUhhhhhh
>>683564127Think that has more to do with logistics
>>683564127They would have chosen assetto corsa if they knew anything
>>683548187Are there any games that let you use competition guns?Even if it's just as a joke weapon like the compound bow in battlefield or whatever.
>>683564127Not every country capable of hosting the olympics is willing to close even more of their city infrastructure for proper car racing, but every country is able to accommodate for iRacing rigs.
>>683549804Is HRT against Olympic rules?
>>683560923Counter Strike is outdated pleb, camping snooze fest garbage. The absolute state of shooters is a joke and they are are better off any serious competitive scene regardless of you seething faggots who are allergic to better and more strategic games.
>>683547085That would be fighting games
>>683560521Did mods ever stop the Peruvian?
>Mobile gamesWe are one step closer to watching gachashit on the Olympics OH NO NO NO
>>683549665>What the fuck is that smell?!HOLY KEK
>>683546773>>683547085>to be clear no game has been announced yetOP is a misleading faggot. Zero source for any announced games.
>>683565538Anon, FPS is not a game.
>>683549665poopsock bros it's our time to shine
>>683564521The best I could find is that the Tranquilizer Pistol in Alpha Protocol is clearly based on the Crossman 2240 .22LR CO2 pistol.
The gaming community has no fucking idea what they're in for regarding the olympics. It's all so comically corrupt and there are so much cancel-worthy shit that happens that just slips by because maintaining diplomatic relations is worth every scandal that occurs.
>>683566161>that time US swimmers trolled the entire world into thinking they got mugged in MexicoThey're not doing a real good job on that whole "maintaining diplomatic relations" thing.
>>683565143El PeruANO is alive and well. You would have known if you were in the Euro/Copa America threads earlier this month.
>>68354868110 years ago is 2014 bro.
>Sports games
>>683557231Mount & Blade: WarbandTotal War: Shogun 2Dissidia 012DDRMen of War: Assault Squad 2
>>683566276I didn't say they ever did a good job at it, but they'll fucking die trying because the alternative is war. It's the same shit as the world cup really.
>>683546773>LoL
Isn't LoL balance atrocious?
>>683566739post>yfw you're going to live long enough to see something equivalent to "BAN TECHIES" at the fucking olympics
>>683566981Isn't Techies DoTA? Does LoL have an equivalent meme?
>>683546773I think this is a bad idea because a single entity has a monopoly over the games that end up in it. If it's going to be an Olympic sport the software should be an open source project that is maintained by a committee, or at the very least, balance changes must NOT be handled by the company because that gives them a bias.
>>683547416>Posts a literal gigachad
>>683547389Lets skip the middleman and make robot deathmatches part of the Olympics.
>>683566739Yes.People complain about dota but despite everything cast is somewhat balanced.
>>683547293this guy won an esport game
>>683549241I think that's the first Japanese pop-off I've ever seen.
>>683546773I'm tired of all the ((((sport)))) bloat, if I watch the Olympics I want to see simple, peak, human physick. Fastest runner, highest jumper, able to lift the most weights, etc. It should be over in a fucking day
>>683546773Actually embarassing>>683561246I like sumo too but who else is gonna participate? Japan, Mongolia, Hawaii, then what?
>>683547416This could grab you by the neck and just rape you while you powerlessly punch his giant meat shield of a bodyLiteral definition of a gigachad
>>683568037Rikishi are fucking incredible in action. When I first started watching I was expecting them to be all slow and deliberate but they move like giant ninjas, it's crazy how agile they are.
Allowing sports games is so corny
>>683549241Wasn’t even aware Hugo was viable in competitive SF3. Fuck those boring-ass Ken players.
>>683566161Mate, every large international business is practically mafia in all but name. Oligarchs know that the best way to keep the authorities off them is to infiltrate.
>>683546773>sim racing in the olympics before actual motorsportslol
>>683568596Some get sanctioned more than others, but the Olympics always has controversy and are often given slaps on the wrists for it. It's just a big ass scheme that the gaming community at large is largely sheltered from thanks to the obviously different demographics of interests, they're about to learn about corruption on an international scale, and wonder why cancel culture means jackshit in these kinds of things.
>>683547416Looks like a giga chad
>>683567641POE isn't e-sports, but he's undoubtedly the best player the game had ever seen. But it's not that uncommon to see really good players of a particular game also be gym bros or just really into fitness generally. There are plenty of those in the CSGO e-sports scene. It's probably the same aspect of autism that allow these guys to grind a game endlessly and also enjoy broccoli + rice + steamed chicken for every single meal they eat.
>no Dota, SC, or any FPS>includes meme car soccer game, iRacing (literal who), apehoop game, dive grass game, and Candy CrushThe toppest of lels. I cannot wait to watch competitive Pokemon Go at the Olympics.
>>683546773Based. 400lb gold medal olympic champion coming through.
>>683546773>Gaming is in the OlympicsGamers are not in the actual Olympics, if you couldn't tell by the name they're using this is an event segregated from the actual Olympics so 100lb twig nerds and 200lb muscular hungry man breakfast Olympians don't interact. They did a test run of this last year for a week.
>>683568939>Some get sanctioned more than others, but the Olympics always has controversy and are often given slaps on the wrists for it.I know. UK Olympics had a controversy over slave like accommodation for workers but they couldn't say anything because they all signed a NDA. Shit only leaked out because family members of those workers got wind of it and when to the press to expose it, but nothing could be done because those workers who most were probably illegals didn't say shit. The oligarchs know how to bend the legal system and authorities turn a blind eye because of ego for prestige and pocketing lobbying money.
>>683569087You laugh, but power walking is an olympic event.
>>683546773lol cannot be a sport due rng mechanics. They would have to put damage at a fixed value rather than a % chance for it to be an actual sport.
>deathmarch got replaced for esports and breakdancingwhy even watch the olympics anymore
>>683547416>fearful expression on lady>fucking flying cushionsQRD?
>>683547085the amount of zoomfag replies to this post are staggering. they have no cluehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdkDjsBiO58
>>683546982Chess isn't owned by a corporation that can and will radically change the way the game is played from one to the next. Those games are constantly getting rebalanced, especially LoL which is practically a different game compared to season 1. Chess isn't like that at all, its been established for hundreds of years with at most very minor and obscure rule changes.
>>683571591Looks like they're throwing programme booklets and the woman is fearful and poorly trying to defend her head from getting hit with one.
iracing is the quake of racing games so score one for the oldfags i suppose
>>683571852that's true. iracing is huge
>>683571883auto racing itself should be an olympic sport but the logistics of such a thing would be insanethey were 15 years too late for trackmania nations
>>683572163>auto racing itself should be an olympic sport but the logistics of such a thing would be insanewe would get a bunch of new sick race tracks out of it
>>683568401Hes not. A few JP players came over for EVO to fuck Americans. You should watch that set, picrel dabs on a crippled nigga.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8DpmASk_ho
>>683546773I don't want or need this. Leave my hobby alone, tryhards, you will never be an athlete.
