Spectator mode seems like it would be a great addition to this game in particular for various reasons. To list a few:
-for players to learn from, newbies and vets alike can watch others play matches to learn basic map interactions and gameplay or more advanced tactics etc.
-for EVE players to spectate the battles they are invested and make them feel more involved/attached which would help encourage the cross game dynamic and community.
-for streamers/shoutcasters/etc to help encourage competition, ramp up popularity, and attract more interest in the game.
I wouldnt be suprised if players had to fork over some isk to 'pay per view' or buy cameras if they wanted to free roam spectate. |

Greetings,

While I would love to see this, I would have to say no for the simple reason that this can be exploited too easily and meta-gamed. Mind you the meta-gaming is going to happen anyway, but this feature would be abused so heavily that your corp / team would almost be required to meta-game in order to compete.

Yeah, for how this game works, if they do allow something like this, it should be recorded matches only. If you're allowed to watch live, I'll just have a buddy on skype and have him call out what the enemy's doing while I'm playing. |

spectator delays are also an option-I know some streamers delay their live footage for competitive play.
I mostly wanted to encourage the idea of spectator mode-I have full confidence they would implement it in a non-gamebreaking way if they decided they had the time and resources if there seemed to be enough demand for it. |

I too would like to see a spectator mode, I'm pretty sure it could be implemented in a way that's non gamebreaking, even if that means watching matches that are not live. |
