love it.. Egames have other formats and leagues running for other games which don't charge. £344..00 to join and the pay out is higher infact it is free.

Nice rip off scam CCP. You really can stick your torny's where the sun don't shine. Twisted

what extra equipemnt. just use fraps like the rest of us.

i'll await the ban and fanboys to flame on.

Did it ever occur to you that most of those tournaments have sponsors or get help for outside organisations such as the IPL. CCP is shouldering the entire running cost for this tournament without help and has just announced massive additions to the prize pool as well. But no because some random idiot doesnt like it, best call the whole thing off. Do us all a favour, shut up and let the adults talk.

What most people fail to include is the significant production costs involved in a large scale production like the New Eden Open.

Not true. And cry me a river.

This is a marketing budget cash outlay, hopefully well-spent and with good long-term returns for both CCP and its business partners.

And how many teams signed so far ?

You can see a list of teams that have signed up on the tournament sign up page.

I've been looking for the teams and the only thing i can see is:

http://community.eveonline.com/en/tournament

http://community.eveonline.com/en/tournament/tournament-info/rules

http://community.eveonline.com/en/tournament/tournament-info/entry

and

http://community.eveonline.com/en/tournament/tournament-info/prizes

Nowhere does it show who has signed up.

Edit: and yes the sign up page also does not show me anything

In that case I'll tell you right here how many teams have signed up. At the current time 61 teams have signed up.
