Czy kiedyś zastanawialiście się co porabiają
Quake'owi idole z dawnych lat? Odpowiedzi na te pytanie przynosi portal cyberfight.ru. Dziennikarze owego serwisu przeprowadzili kilka miniwywiadów ze znanymi rosyjskimi graczami. Łączy ich jedno, wszyscy wnieśli gigantyczny wkład w rozwój Quake 3 jak i esportu w ogóle, a jednak coś spowodowała, że czasem w sposób gwałtowny przerywali swoją karierę. Shad2y, Cooller, Makaveli, devil, polosat1y to gracze, na którzych wzorowała się większość z nas, a którzy w pewnym momencie przestali pokazywać się na międzynarodowych turniejach. Sam artykuł traktuje o większej ilości osób powiązanych w różnym stopniu z progamingiem. Pod lupę wzięci zostali również CS-owcy, osoby odpowiedzialne za organizację największych międzynarodowych turniejów jak WCG Russia, Olympic Champion oraz ludzie odpowiedzialni za przekaz społeczny czyli dziennikarze.
Konstantin "Shad2y" Kachalov - ojcowskie powołanie
Przed paroma dniami gościł On na naszym
SOTW. Powodem przerwania jego kariery były narodziny bliźniaków. Każdy kto ma dziecko wie jak bardzo wpływa to na całokształt życia. Młodego Rosjanina spotkało to szczęście podwójnie. Nie powinno to dziwić, iż postawił ojcowskie powołanie ponad
Quake 3. Reszta wywiadu to standardowe w takim przypadku pytania o najciekawszą chwilę związaną z kłakiem, wartości jakimi kieruje się obecnie oraz czy coś zyskał grając w tę grę. Odpowiedzi jak nie trudno zgadnąć są jak najbardziej pozytywne w stosunku do Q3.

**Tell thy life as evolved in recent years? What has been achieved? How can boast?
Shad2y*: *In the past few years my life turned on its head (and could, and vice versa). I got married and became the father of two wonderful pacany =) Last year at the excellent degree, which somehow miraculously slabal himself and for 3 weeks. A year and a half has worked leader gaming projects in Moscow's biggest Internet provider's (Comstar-Direct, Streaming). Only a few days ago received a very attractive offer, which was unable to refuse =) now working in Multiregion Holding, which unites more than 20 - not Internet providers throughout Russia. In general, complaining about the luck, I do not have the right.
What is important for you in your life? Has replaced benchmarks?
Shad2y: For me the main thing now - my family, self-realization and personal friends. Landmarks - In spite of what compared. Of course, I already different goals and ideas than when I was, for example 16-17 years, and I carelessly reylil and bazyulil.
**How do you otsenivaesh TO TIME (time spent among promoters)?
Shad2y*: *About that time I have left only the positive memories, and if it was something bad - not remember:), all the more so with me as a time directly associated with my carefree youth. It was in TO TIME I met people I now believe their true friends! And just a lot of good people to learn for the future.
**What event from the (past) life you remember most?
Shad2y*: *Well, I do not know, one highlight, as well as soon fails. Much has been no victories, defeats and, in general, every emotion. One of the most striking impressions - all week WCG Russia Preliminary 2001. Pereigrovka with Dream-type, which we have taken place 3, but not the second. In itself, the atmosphere of the first championship that level in Russia. Ildar (noBap) and Roma (Polosatiy) will recall an accident at the garden c Philips' th, which had recently died, his heavenly kingdom. When it was necessary to deploy on the garden in two solid and Philips Rome said: "Yes won, look, there is ment!" At that Roma man answers: "Yes zabej, it is spin:)" Philips twisted steering wheel, and begins to unfold in us FSOshnikov nine army, which flew on vstrechke. A couple of hours porazbiralis, tied to the bumper bows in the club and went to the MT train. That was the day before the finals, if my memory serves me.
**Do you now keep for a modern-eSport scene?
Shad2y*: *Slezhu, set to work:) And it is just interesting that happened in this world. It's interesting to compare that already have in the west and with us here, and of course becomes a "pity" for the Power, as well as Russian projects lag behind Western counterparts for 5 years, at least. I can not refrain from criticizing =), for example, the draft Propley I did not visit the principle, like any site at boot which gets popap flash the whole screen. I think this is extreme contempt of uebanstvom users and the all-pervasive.
Anton "Cooller" Singov - legenda za życiaMówisz
Cooller, myślisz wymiatacz
Q3. Czy można dodać coś więcej o tym graczu? Jest to jeden z nielicznych, przy którym poza nickiem, pamięta się także jego imię i nazwisko. Jaki jest powód jego absencji? To co zwykle. Życie, odkrywanie samego siebie, początek kariery...w pokera. Osobiście nie czuje się on weteranem: "w razie potrzebny zniszczę każdego". Intrygująca jest również metamorfoza fizyczna Rosjanina (chodzi mi o muskulaturę). Obrazują to dwa poniższe zdjęcia. Jeśli się nie mylę to pierwsze zdjęcie jest z około
2002 roku, natomiast drugie (czerwona koszulka) wykonane zostało całkiem niedawno.

**Tell thy life as evolved in recent years? What has been achieved? How can boast?
Cooller*: *Nasyschenno, intriguing and effectively. Relatively sport - this constant trips abroad, speak at events, victories and defeats. Regarding life - this development as a person. I think that I became very independent, and confident adults themselves in recent years. Replaced many cars - proschupyvayu so to say this area is not going to stop ... Began career in poker.
What is important for you in your life? Has replaced benchmarks?
Cooller: Yes of course, given my age, guidelines have changed globally. It is now a stable livelihood, which allows live with dignity, health, self-development, intellectual as well as physical. Yes, and it is time to begin to build their lives ...
How do you otsenivaesh TO TIME (time spent among promoters)?
Cooller: For me, my kibersportivnoe past - is what has made me so what I have. Thanks, I learned to be circulated independent, and self-educated man. My English - Merit sport. I saw virtually the entire world with his own eyes ... Since 16 years, I have never asked money from their parents, no matter what, just because won more than sufficient for the tournament. In some quarters, I earned credibility and is well on the whole world .. Those were the most wonderful years of my life. A most flow of emotions and excitement.
**What event from the (past) life you remember most?
Cooller*: *I remember every last moments of his life. I allocate a given is wrong, because each of them individually so that incorrect to compare think .. Here for example, Dim, remembered WCG 2002 in Korea, when we were in favour Unkind'om s58? Or, as we have with you noBap'om nights before finals and drank coffee with the morning syrkami glazed?
**Do you now keep for a modern-eSport scene?
Cooller*: *This question sounds like a veteran, I really .. That is not the case .. If necessary, can unleash any, haha .. My kibersportivnaya life goes on, even "asusy" and ESWC ahead ... Just priorities reversed - if in the past for me, for example, "asus was a global mega-event to which I diligently prepared, and dreamed of winning, and now - trite lj populyat, meet friends and a good time .. I understand that their already played, but I am not finished. So, I know all the e-sports events always.
Roman "Polosat1y" Tarasenko - dawny mistrzPowód przerwania gry przez reprezentanta znakomitego teamu
c58 był dość prosty. Pieniądze. Jak sam mówi, za czasów studenckich, mógł spokojnie oddawać się swojej pasji, jaką była gra w
Quake 3. Przyszedł jednak moment, w którym doszedł On do wniosku, że ważniejsze jest zabezpieczenie finansowe na przyszłość. Gra na tak wysokim poziomie przyniosła jednak wiele plusów, z których najważniejszym była zmiana poglądów na życie. "Chcesz się nauczyć jakichś umiejętności - uczysz się" - tak w skrócie można scharakteryzować jego motto życiowe. Obecnie jest fotografem. Robi zdjęcia eksluzywnych lub stuningowanych aut dla wielu magazynów rosyjskich (pewnie współpracuje z
devilem, ale o tym niżej).

**Tell thy life as evolved in recent years? What has been achieved? How can boast?
Polos*: *Life is going well. Starting from the time I started playing Quake 2 in 1999, I learned to make any goal set for ourselves. Want to become so-and-so then - became. Wanted to learn certain skills - learned. True, while as students get older and start to realize some of the nuances in life - not all can be done, and not all the money on zarabot force. And it is not immediately understood that the little things to make checkbox, it is good to have all of the financial benefits and receive - in the sense that I appreciate it is often because with a decent wage, I do not lose the motivation to continue to, but not samosovershenstvuyus because of the goal to earn more, but simply because of kajf. Conclusion - the ability to achieve the goals I cjelini, it is time to turn this into serious money:) Because what I have achieved so far, a complete sludge. We want more! Hoping to achieve more ... Pro classes - at the moment, I am engaged in automobile photography, doing pictures for a few famous Russian magazines about cars and tuning. At this point my goal - to compete with the world the skill level of the photographer. If this can be until summer, then will think how to become the best. Most can not grow quickly - often prevents laziness - but, well, as is clear at a time parsing any errors, as well as time to be able to competently sell their work. For some of my friends simply remove the picture is very beautiful, but it does not sell to anyone. I am so uninteresting, want serious money, expensive cars. If that some of my photographs can be viewed on the site www.nice-cars.ru (simple site without any metering, etc., simply warehouse snaps).
**What is important for you in your life? Has replaced benchmarks?
Polos*: *Family. The rest is all pretty. In fact, so much free time. Much as I am constantly doing is not just a job, and quickly, much more quickly than others. So there is no reason to claim a lotta time. And because benchmarks can be very different. Can month every night logged in Quake 3. Then a month to work productively, for two to three months ahead. All I can spare time to study and learn new things, probivatsya to work further and further. But, as everything goes its course, I often just lenyus, rublyus in Quake 3. At work I come in 3-4 days every day, I hope not feeling unloved at me for that. In reply - I try never to let a term, to do everything in advance, and so I always reserve for the rest of time before colleagues. That's cool:) 2008 year, most likely, I will devote an effort to become a driver (such a possibility). There is also an idea to do a poker game, but I am afraid to start because I can not work just for money. Many people in this life limelight at work just for money, so I would not been able to. But on the other hand, suddenly everything will turn out, and the money there when circumstances suddenly successfull. So try to succeed there, too, perhaps, for instance. But I also do not rule the possibility that the chip does not popret. Or will not be able to morally, financially, physically.
**How do you otsenivaesh TO TIME (time spent among promoters)?
Polos*: *Perhaps the best time in their lives. It is thanks to Quake, I realized that my grip and can do a lot. Want to become a good player - has become. Well, and games started with the chain of events that led me to my current occupation - I always remember about this and very happy that all is well. In conversation, it was a lot of moments of random coincidence and luck - I am also pleased that sometimes carried. But if it were not grasp, and it was not a precedent for luck. Punk clearly do not do the pile-and then some ...
**What event from the (past) life you remember most?
Polos*: *All progeyming in general. It is very difficult to separate events on a single scale, somewhere, I won the money somewhere glory ( "респект"), where a chance to develop further, break somewhere. If it is a very emotional event, it's likely BWEC 2000, where I composed the Russian team for Quake 3 became European champion. BWEC Why? Because we won four, and felt the joy of each other. For instance, I can not do a good thing for themselves and rejoice. This is boring. A much steeper do something that others enjoy. Well, you - emotions: in the form of money, respektov, but, more importantly, the pleasure of the fact that all succeeded.
**Do you now keep for a modern-eSport scene?
Polos*: *Monitor, as well as periodically invited me to stay a reporter at a major championship, for example, the World Cyber Games. Despite the fact that I scored quite a long time, I was almost at all WCG (except 2002 and 2006).
Alexander "devil" Beloborodov - od quakera do milioneraWiele osób może go nie kojarzyć jako, że swoją karierę zakończył w
2002 roku. Dodatkowo był graczem teamplayowym,
2-krotnym mistrzem Europy. W jego przypadku powód zakończenia jest dość ciekawy. Otóż, wygrała tutaj jego druga pasja - samochody, motocykle, tuning. Co może wyjść z takiej mieszanki? Właściciel firmy, która jest liderem, w tuningu samochodowym w Rosji. Nieźle co? Dzieła firmy, którą prowadzi Rosjanin możecie oglądać na stronie
www.exstudio.ru. Jeśli macie zamiar tuningować samochód to tylko u Niego, zwłaszcza że jak powołacie się na grę w
Quake 3 to może zgarniecie jakiś rabacik.


**Tell thy life as evolved in recent years? What has been achieved? How can boast?
devil**: *Achieve, something supernatural was unable… After completing his career progeymera in 2002, had to be something to deal with, to continue its work in the computer industry to become programmerom, a systems administrator, the prospect for me is not the best… Since childhood, in addition kompov, I felt different to the technology, cars, motorcycles, etc. Potykavshis for various vacancies, "I understood that to find a decent job" among the many proposals or so just… After considering numerous vacancies had resolved to - need to get ourselves another profession, and went to work in the auto, all at once… Motorist profession, locksmith, diagnostics, tyuningist.
During the work met a painter who was painting (paint) cars and motorcycles… over 3 years of my work in the auto cool friends, and we decided to develop this area alone. After 2 years of our joint work in this direction, we are a leader in this business and we are not going to rest on its laurels.*
**What is important for you in your life? Has replaced benchmarks?
devil*: *Frankly say is not easy to answer this question. At this point in the first place is work on the project www.exstudio.ru Christ, working for 10 hours a day, 6 days a week. Landmarks left earlier - Should be, the best… be, as it was with our team in kibersporte 2000 and 2002…
**How do you otsenivaesh TO TIME (time spent among promoters)?
devil:** It is difficult to estimate, probably in a period of life that has passed, but it certainly left a big mark on my life, of course, I think that could be done better, but perhaps at the time - this was possible. Personally, I may never regretted what had happened in the time that I spent in the cyber environment. Everything was mega hot!
**What event from the (past) life you remember most?
devil*: *Undoubtedly, the first victory in 2000 Championship in England BWEC for Quake 3, where we took first place. This was my first trip abroad for soccer, and immediately - victory. In the finals, we played better with the Swedish team for Quake - Nine [9], about a year before they come to Russia for the first international match for Quake 1, which defeated us with the score 9:1 in their favour. Winning them at the European Championship in Quake 3, it was simply a matter of pride. It was a victory not only for us but for Russia as a whole, it became clear that nothing is impossible. Personally, I believe that with this victory in the championship and you can count down the emergence of a professional sport in Russia.
**Do you now keep for a modern-eSport scene?
devil*: *In part, all my time is my job. But nostalgia hurts me from time to time, and I have great pleasure in reading reviews championships if it were more time, the pleasure came on the championships, but as spektator. Play itself once already and do not want.
Vladimir "Makaveli" Svintitsky - weteran, ale nie do końca...Można mieć tutaj mieszane odczucie, jako że gracz ten wraca powoli do aktywnej gry. Przykładem może być niedawne 3 miejsce na
QQC#12. Obecnie jest zatrudniony, w górniczo-metalurgicznym przedsiębiorstwie Norilsk Nickel jako kierowca-strażnik. Od 2002 do 2004 roku nie mógł brać czynnego udziału w życiu sceny
Q3 z powodu odbywania służby wojskowej. Jest jednak stare przysłowie, "ciągnie wilka do lasu". Tak samo jest z
Makavelim, który jak widać przeżywa drugą młodość i chce udowodnić, że nadal jest liczącym się graczem na scenie.

**Tell thy life as evolved in recent years? What has been achieved? How can boast?
maka*: *After my arrival of the Army (2002-2004 year), I changed a little, their priorities, but never forgot his favorite cause (quake3), even in 2005, was invited to ESWC, but the fervor and passion for Gambling, tell you the truth, by that time already priugasli. I tried to create an atmosphere for yourself, the one that I have had before, but years passed seen being felt, and I realized that there has been no return. Started to work in the mining and metallurgical company Norilsk Nickel in the security service, as the driver-guard, married, live shorter than normal adult lives.
**What is important for you in your life? Has replaced benchmarks?
maka*: *The most important in my life now believe their small family, but I think, over time, will wait additions. Benchmarks, I would not say that gave way, I just added.
**How do you otsenivaesh TO TIME (time spent among promoters)?
maka*: *It was a great time, which I will remember always been ups and downs, victories and defeats were, but the main thing that I have always enjoyed - this is the spirit of excitement, it never left me and kept me playing all my years, even honestly, they still I have, but neither the kibersporte. I am very pleased that this was precisely gaming, suction, even unable to provide for themselves than the other, sometimes look at old information about tournaments, photos, interviews, and I am very pleased about this recall.
**What event from the (past) life you remember most?
maka:** Hard to answer so what event I remember most probably call my very first tournament that we visited, I met many good people and a real expert of his time, even some Bush (Polosatiy, Pele, Zlo, Power).
**Do you now keep for a modern-eSport scene?
maka*: *Yes, I try to follow, and even if possible, take a direct part in the tournament, and certainly not not skip one tournament series ASUS, because it is also a kind of nostalgia, and I remember to this day as to what he started.
Wszystkich wyżej wymienionych graczy, łączą wspólne mianowniki zakończenia ich aktywnego grania.
Kariera,
rodzina,
pieniądze, czyli krótko mówiąc
życie. Beztroskie lata grania po lekcjach w szkole, czy zajęciach na uczelni odchodzą, w momencie konfrontacji z obowiązkiem utrzymania siebie, czy rodziny.
E-sport na świecie nie jest jeszcze, aż tak bardzo rozwinięty (poza może
Koreą Płd.), aby mógł być pewnym źródłem utrzymania. Stanowi cały czas dodatek do życia, możliwość 2,3-krotnego wygrania wielkich imprez (
ESWC czy
ASUS LAN, w przypadku
Q3) i na tym koniec.
Weterani Quake'a nie żałują jednak ani jednej chwili spędzonej przy tej grze. Jako plusy wymieniają możliwość poznania nowych ludzi i miejsc. Sama gra nauczyła ich konsekwencji, umiejętności dążenia do celu. Myślę, że taki cel i podejscie powinno przyświecać każdemu kto gra w
Quake 3 więcej niż trochę.
Pełne wywiady przetłumaczone na angielski możecie znaleźć pod zdjęciami każdego z graczy. Tłumaczenie jest średniej jakości, ale pozwala na wychwycenie wszystkich istotnych kwestii. Poza tym lepsze to niż próby tłumaczenia języka rosyjskiego.
Wywiady ze wszystkimi osobami z artykułu znajdziecie w linkach poniżej. Wstawiam je jako ciekawostkę. Każdy gracz to inna historia. Ponadto znajdziemy tam też wywiady z osobami odpowiedzialnymi za największe imprezy esportowe na świecie. W skrócie znajdziecie tam dużo ciekawej lektury.
Wywiad #1:
cookie, devil, Mila Masina, Polosat1y, RedWhite, Worma.
Wywiad #2:
Askold, bull3t, Cooller, Lexx, MadFan, Makaveli, Map4ello.
Wywiad #3:
Nook, Runcha, Shad2y, Dilvish.
