PSP off season shenanigans!

Yea, the city may have given them a deal as well. I know there is plenty of convention space there, so loads of hotels available to hopefully keep costs down.

As long as it's not during July or August the weather is usually quite decent.

So the RoF for the pros has been revealed, with a cap at 12.5 bps and implementation of "True Semi" (no shot queues/buffering) - looks quite controversial with those who have tested it out!

The thread is seriously interesting reading. Looks like most folks will get around 9-11bps. Until they can teach their fingers to walk at exactly 80ms intervals.

Honestly with uncapped semi back with my Angels, I was only hitting 11-12bps anyway, so it's not too much of a change for me...also not playing Pro PSP so not going to impact me

It'll make for some closer games though, moves will be able to be made through gaps in streams now, and breakouts may be 5v5 more often than not until folks retrain their fingers.

You need to tune out the background noise in that thread, the only real contributions to the OP are from the pro players and manufacturer reps. Its a bit like every car owner getting worked up about Formula One rule changes, its only going to directly effect the manufacturers and PSP pro teams. However, I expect we can see a new 'PSP Semi' mode appearing on boards near you soon

Yea the really interesting comments are from Jack, Stoney, Grayson and the Revo guys who are actually playing with the settings. Bringing real firearms, or reverse ramping, into the thread is just silly and doesn't contribute to the conversation.

CEP officially folds. Confirms the rumours.

Tampa Bay Damage folds

Rumours of DYE having issues running rampant.

Does that leave Ironmen as the only Dye team in the PSP pro ranks?
