Here's the idea:
Specific premade versions of arenas that...
- Accepts only teams of 5
- Allows everyone to see who is in each team
- Allows people to "ride along" with any of the players: they get the same data stream (read only) as that player so they can watch from that players POV with their own camera (changeable angle/zoom).
Cryptic run tournaments with Cryptic provided (free to the public) lite clients to ride along with certain positions (team A,B:slot1-5) so friends, family, and thousands in techie-bars can cheer for their favorite players.
P.S. I'm available as a creative consultant XD

got a 1 question for you zigs, whats the %chance of this happening do you think?
%{chance of implementation} ~= %{need to promote the game and generate excitement and revenue}
^^
observer mode was such an amazing thing, easily one of the best features about GW.
Recording in-game demos as files is apparently possible already, but nobody seems to do it. The closest we get is the odd FRAPS video here and there.
