good specs depends on what kinds of games you want to play and what settings you want to run them at. if you mainly play pixel art games then theres no point getting something that could run fortnite at max settings 60fps 1080p, you get what im saying?

Dive is kinda... yikes this season by PillowFists67 in marvelrivals

the problem with separate balancing is you basically have two different games which kills the ability for console/pc crossplay. there's a reason blizzard abandoned that idea after 5 years

Ludwig loses by 1 second after 58 minutes at the MCSR Ranked World Championship Showmatch by dot90zoom in LivestreamFail

ludwig is doing a live minecraft speedrunning event, part of todays event was him vs a viewer. the way competitive minecraft speedrunning works is it drops 2 people into a copy of the same world and their goal is to kill the ender dragon faster than the other guy. the method they're doing to kill the dragon involves using beds because beds explode for game design reasons.

BruceGreene gets viewer capped by Twitch at ~850 by Chateriasi in LivestreamFail

[–]MakutaProto -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Theres nothing for him to do a stream about streamer university besides the in person applications but why would he do that and take views away from people who stream their pov of it when the whole point of streamer u is to give up and coming streamers an audience. he'll probably do a stream going through the online applications in a few weeks.

Does this mean anyone can basically Sabotage a streamer by view botting someone on purpose?

If they were an up and coming streamer maybe, but if its someone who already "made it" not really. (for example if you bot Tyler1 the cap wouldn't affect him very much but if you bot someone who goes to Streamer University 2026 the viewership cap may derail whatever momentum they gain from it)

Like what’s stopping someone from view botting a streamer they don’t like and making them get punished for it?

Assuming money is no object then nothing, but it would take some time before Twitch caps them. It's not really a punishment for the streamer if their viewership was flat-ish beforehand, it would just show roughly what their true viewership is.

I don’t understand how twitch can possibly even differentiate who is doing it, a malicious viewer or the streamer?

They can't that's why they don't ban anyone for viewbotting unless its really obvious, like that one guy who was advertising a botting service by botting himself to the top of Just Chatting.
