Suggestion: Ability to watch replays in browser - eumerk - 07-08-2012 08:44 AM
Hey OML,
First, this game is a ton of fun. Haven't bought the uber pack yet, but I definitely plan on it.
Now on to my suggestion... It would be awesome if we could watch the replays that are posted to this forum in a browser. As of now, people are taking advantage of the replay system and posting games so the community can give feedback and advice, which is awesome... but to watch these replays I have to switch to my iPhone, watch the replay, then log in on my desktop to leave a longer reply. It's not that big of a hassle as it is now, but it would be nice to be able to watch the replays on my computer.
Thanks for the hard work!

I'm sure it'd be more work for them than it's worth to us, but it definitely would be a nice addition.

One can still dream...
I agree, that it would be awesome. It would allow for some crazy things like 'featured matches' on the OML blog or stuff - the couldn't be any better promotion for a game than actually seeing it run. Not just in a video, but in a really lightweight and clever way. HTML5, anyone? Don't look at me, I'm no HTML-wizard.

However, I didn't get much feedback from OML other than "yeah cool", so I guess they are not interested in community guys creating official stuff, you know.
And without support, character sprites and/or dummy databases it won't happen really soon; even if they changed their mind I'd be lacking time -now-.
