Stream Sniping....

[en1mal 12]

BikeMan just stopped playing DayZ SA so often because of those snipers, thats hella lame! 

 

I can understand it can be fun I myself thought about joining that same server and do some shit,

but in the end you'll just ruin everything, and the fun of the streamer playing at all.

 

Bad Karma!

Feeling important enough to think care to watch you play is lame.

 

What is even more pathetic are the people who waste their time watching someone else have fun and play.

 

You just went full retard, never go full retard.

 

1. I dont see how feeling "important" has to do with OP.

2. People generally watch that type of content because of the person who plays it, his opinion, commentary etc etc

3.Bad troll is bad.

PewDiePie. I find him unbearable, as much as i find Justin Biebers music unbearable, or Skrillex', or the paintings of Renoir.

Beans sir. I understand watching vids to get tips/tricks/secrets. But to spend copious amounts of time watching someone play the game, instead of playing it yourself seems odd.

 

When was the last time you saw a huge audience watching the pickup basketball games at your local park?

 

If you ask me for my personal opinion:

 

1. stream sniping is lame. its griefing on a meta level. dont try to find excuses, your objective is to ruin another persons experience. you're an asshole. deal with it.

 

2. announcing on what server you play in public and then crying about being griefed is lame. you're not a special snowflake just because you stream. you're not entitled to special treatment, protection or hugs just because you stream. and no, it doesnt matter if you have two or two thousand viewers. deal with it.

 

 

EDIT: (offtopic)

 

The most prominent YouTuber, PewDiePie, earns four million USD per year from ads alone, because people enjoy watching him play video games. Google is trying to aquire twitch.tv, the main videogaming streaming portal, for reportedly one billion USD. This is the reality of video game streaming. Watching others play video games, competitively or "for shitz n giggles", is a growing entertainment business.  Your antiquated views are yours to keep, and i dont expect this post to counter your blatant intolerance, but your insults are out of place. Just because you lack the ability to understand that others can enjoy different things as you do does neither make them pathetic nor their entertainment a waste of time.

Just because it's a thing, doesnt make it any less pathetic. Ashley Madison is a "thing" now, does that make encouraging adultery acceptable?

 

Probably some clumsy metaphors, but I can't be assed to think of better ones. My point stands though. I accept yours as well, though with a helping of shame for our younger generation.

 

Of course, this is just my opinion. Younger folks are going to disagree.

You can play games while appearing offline. I think you're getting "appearing offline" confused with putting Steam in "offline mode". Most games should function fine while in offline mode anyway, save for a few that require a connection to play at all, i.e. Dota 2.

     Yeah, I was thinking of other stuff at the time. I was just messing around on the forums because I couldn't get to sleep.

I'm wondering why you even need to ask this question? You can't work it out for yourself?

I did figure it out for myself, i posted my thoughts after my question.

basicly this.

Griefing and meta play has been in dayZ from the beginning. rather you do it or hate it its there. be mindful that it is a thing. if you choose to do something that singles you out as a target you certainly arent entitled to special treatment
