Planetside 1 Stream

[Favion]

Hey guys, I just posted a bit about a stream i nthe 24/7 Planetside Project, but I would like to have a discussion on this. I've been streaming for about 2 years, one of the original Twitch partners, and have been a Planetside fanboy for 6 years now (My battle rank doesn't show it...). Would anyone be interested in a Planetside 1 stream for nostalgia, and to see what's going on lately? I started playing a bit with the queen vanu (purrfectstorm), and it's actually pretty fun to stream, unfortunately we don't get many viewer wise. So would the PSU community in general be interested in watching / supporting a Planetside 1 stream? If so, I definitely have some ideas to make it look good, and enjoyable.

I'd be interested. I'm resubbing tonight anyway. What's your ingame name?

[Crator]

I'd rather be playing then watching someone else play :) You pose a good question though... Is there an audience for PS1 game streaming? Or better question, could there be?

[Zulthus]

Sometimes I like watching people play games while I'm eating.

[Coreldan]

I've always sorta wondered how are streams so popular.. Why don't the people play the game for themselves? Unless they are at work or something else keeping them busy but wanna sorta watch something related.

That said, I could be interested, but then again I could also just play myself, but depending on your quality settings I can't most likely watch it :D I have such a lame internet connection.

The reason streams get so popular is the streamer personality. As casters, it's our job to entertain, and present a huge personality that people would enjoy being around. It's really difficult when I'm having a bad day, but I have a cast the same day and I need to act super hyped and happy. The quality would be around 720p, but you can change the quality.

I would like you to take part in something for 247? I need help with on part of streaming, and you could be just the person to do it :D

And I know there are plenty of people willing to watch entertainment, its just how you deliver it that counts. If you want to be a big contributor to PS 247 send me a PM I need all the help I can get.

Oh and favion, I followed you with all my channels, could you do the same please :D

Edit, oh and another thing, Planetside 1 can still be very entertaining! :D

[Johari]

I would watch your or anyone else's stream of Planetside. I already watch other live streams of games on Justin.tv or Twitch.tv regularly but i've also seen a few on ustream and whatnot.

I say go for it.

[Favion]

Sounds good, follow me on twitch.tv http://www.twitch.tv/favioncast or on twitter @FavionCast, I'll tweet whenever I go live with Planetside, and you'll get an e-mail! I'll try and stream daily, if not just to a couple of people!

[Tigersmith]

I already do this from time to time. and i used to stream every time i played 6 months ago.

Favion, me you, Coreldan and GTGD should hook up one night get a little team going.

Oh, and some feedback for you PS stream, can you change the resolution (of the game) and turn in down a little, as the text cant be read. And its a shame as your streaming in good quality.

Also get an archive or YouTube channel so you can send them to it, and then folks can watch in all the resolutions.

Keep it up.

[Favion]

I will definitely upload stuff to Youtube soon, my youtube is FavionTV atm. As for text, I can just make it larger, that isn't an issue, and perhaps turn up the quality of the stream to 720p or 1080p, as PS doesn't take much resources. And I'm up for meeting whenever.

I have a justin.tv account, how do I get my videos onto twitch?

If you stream to Justin.tv Gaming, you should automatically be on Twitch. http://www.twitch.tv/InsertYourCurrentUsername.

I advise you to watch out. I know with my stream people used to cheat.

They used to look where i spawned the logged in and OSed. also I always love doing backhacks. So that was also out of the question when I streamed.

People on the other empire use to hunt me and think it was funny. lol (which it was) just be careful. I ended up covering up the minimap and never looked directly at the AMS and u should be ok lol

[Favion]

Hey I'm going to go live now with PurrfectStorm (Planetside 2 grunt (designer))! If you're thinking about re-subbing, come check it out, or just for fun! http://www.twitch.tv/favioncast

You guys are cool to play with. Even when you don't know the difference between eject and accelerate in an aircraft :p
