AfterWorld Survival Forum

Not sure why you put this into the suggestions thread as its a suggestion for players, not the devs ^^ yes i watch people playing SC2 and LoL often on twitch, there are many players there that do it as a job. In the future i might stream myself, at the moment i don't think its really worth it with my low end gear, but also simply because of the game AW is.. the games I watch have a beggining and an end, and are played competitivly, AW has no begging/end so therefore i haven't thought (yet) of a good idea on (if i streamed) what i would do.

one thing is, you would have to either "hide" information that you dont want publicly known, perhaps your map markers or your awd amount or your skills or attributes, or you just dont care and share with the world (on my part i think i just won't care and won't hide anything). Twitch/streaming is where i got my idea of making tutorial type videos from. (but those i want to save/put on youtube so they can be watched/rewatched.

However i do think maybe theres a future of streaming But, there needs to be some sort of good idea behind it because 1. the players, would probably rather play themselves than to watch someone else play UNless they were doing something boring like for example picking rocks, then they could watch and play at the same time, and 2. non players im not sure why they would watch because.. well, AW isn't too "exciting" to watch, so perhaps to only stream when theres like, events of some sort going on, or perhaps of you make a goal and you work towards that goal and explain what you're doing/why you're doing as you're doing it, so that those watching can learn from it

just a few thoughts

Hehe, it's in kinda in the right topic, cause Torque engine has all the audio-video streaming capabilities and we were promised video capture will be ingame... sometimes in the unspecified future.


So i think it's kinda a reminder, of sorts

ya Tor should not be allowed in game or the forum

no mobs today, not very exciting.  ya all my old videos disappeared...  but sure

someone using that IP I got atm has been a bad boy

You have been blocked from using Twitch. Please visit the Support Center for more information on why you may have been banned.

EDIT:Never mind, forgot to turn Tor off...

actually, for additional security, AW should block Tor network exit nodes too. Imagine someone breaking into other people's accounts, if it's done by using Tor, it cannot be traced.

Criminals and other bad people will have other ways to be untraceable.
There are established and effective methods of dealing with this risk in a generic way.

you know, this game will not be a hit on stream. why? because like in eve online, people will use your stream to hunt you and kill you. unless you do not so risky things, like picking stones and then noone will want to watch you.

DayZ is a survival type game where killing is easy and dying is easy, despite this and snipers (ppl who watch streams and hunt the people) plenty of people still watch streams..

for AWR, i think it would be mainly only benificial if the person streaming was sharing information or teaching the viewers something, or perhaps doing things that other people cannot, or perhaps is doing something for fun, or some kind of player event. I am sure people might find something interesting, but i agree, its usually not very exciting to watch.

perhaps pvp would be exciting to watch, especially if you are in a team, and are all on teamspeak or something. to prevent being hunted, you can simply add a delay to your video broadcast. someone might figure out where you are and what you're doing from watching what you did 10 minutes ago, but it sure would be harder
