🧵Going Head to Head: How the @ESLCS @CSGO HUD got its 1v1 Update for the #IEM Rio Major | Thread🧵

Ironically, 1v1s can be an infuriating proposition when it comes to FPS broadcasts. Some of the most intense moments that you can have in a match... [1/x]

"...but the story of Dust 2 begins with a kid named Jave Dohnston, purveyor of Counter-F***".

Thanks for this look at Dust II, @noclipvideo! https://t.co/kfSXSFCFJG

A lot of game devs are dunking on this, but if you're not a game dev it's probably not actually obvious why. So I thought I'd take a moment to answer a little more thoughtfully in hopes of giving gamers a little more insight on what we do.

If you are into sports graphic design, you are going to gobble up this 29-minute presentation.

Last season, @espn overhauled its complete @NBA graphics package in a matter of five months. This is how they did it.

When I helped engineer the matchmaking for Dota 2 at Valve (aka Game Coordinator) I chose a 32 bit value (up to 4 billion) for the match-id. I estimated at one game per second, that's 126 years.

I was wrong, Dota 2 quickly moved to more than 15 games per second. Oops.

As expected, there's now an entire laundry list of stuff that we want to do for next year🛠️

From pure eye-candy to what we think will be some interesting quality of life improvements for ingame elements, we won't have a shortage of options to keep us busy over the winter❄️[6/6]

🧵Folding space: improving the @ESLCS @CSGO Augmented Reality integration for the #IEM Rio Major🧵

https://t.co/BQdikeRBFY

Ingame AR isn't exactly a novelty within the CSGO space or @ESLCS broadcasts, but it *is* rare enough that it raises eyebrows when it's used [1/x]

[Vlad Rosca @tallvlad]

The camera tracking was also greatly improved, thus making the display of AR elements more believable

Sure, we all know that they're not *actually* part of the game itself, but the illusion that they do exist within the levels is generally improved [5/x]
