>“There’s nothing worse than getting stream sniped,” streamers said a mere week ago. Oh, how naive they were. >The latest major update for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds added, among many other things, car horns. Suddenly, the practice of watching somebody’s stream of a game and using it to gain an upper hand—evolved. Now instead of stalking their favorite streamers and killing them, people have taken to following them around in cars and honking at them incessantly. It’s called stream honking, and it’s infuriating and/or hilarious, depending on your perspective. >Brendan “PlayerUnknown” Greene commented that stream snipers and now stream honkers will be banned once their actions are brought to the attention of the developers.
First stream sniping now stream honking. Why must people be massive cunts in vidya?
If you are looking for pity you won't find it here. I think it is funny personally. They have the option of not streaming.
Adrian Allen
When will people fall in line and learn they are a fucking second class citizen as far as glorious streamers are concerned.
Aaron Morales
Why dont they just put a delay on their broadcast? Whoa so hard, suddenly stream sniping is useless. Bitching about car horns though what the fuck? Fuck streamers they're retards.
Nathan Howard
because it's fun
James Ramirez
>stream sniping >something bad
dude lmoa just like set up a delay kekkkkkk
Dylan Powell
And griefers have the option of not being fucking idiots ruining the game not only for the streamer but their tens of thousands of viewers.
Camden Moore
I know shit game played by retards but this is getting ridiculous
Owen Carter
inb4 honking is removed from the game entirely. PU has to suck streamer cock. They've made his game into a success when it would have just been a shitty flavor of the month.
Wyatt Lewis
>(((Greene)))
Jaxon Mitchell
>underage streamers disscover screen cheating
Evan Sanders
>no good videos of this yet Them getting pissed off at this has to be gold.
Justin Campbell
I fail to see how fucking honking ruins the game for streamers, especially when they can literally fucking shoot the offending players
Joshua Perry
>I should have to put a delay on my stream because some idiots cannot find the self control to not cheat
Fuck off
Oliver Nguyen
GET A GRIP STREAM HONKERS
Liam Miller
Streamers aren't human, why does Brendan insist on sucking their collective cocks?
Charles Davis
yes you should
now go hang yourself on a tree pussy
Blake Torres
bada bing bada fucking boom
Eli Richardson
1. It draws nearby enemies 2. Team killing is a bannable offense
Jacob Hill
I was just looking for some i want to see streamtards getting angry and throwing a fit.
Dylan Robinson
>Go around just honking my horn at enemy players >One of them happens to be a streamer >Banned Nice game
Levi Miller
What year is it? Strategies to mitigate this are over a decade old by now. If you're playing PUBG though, you're not playing professionally but for money. Just roll with it.
Ethan Hall
>They have the option of not streaming. This Don't want to be sniped? Don't stream.
David Jones
then cry more L-O-L (laughing out loud)
Asher Long
MAYBE DONT FUCKING STREAM LIKE SOME KEKOLD LORD
Evan Anderson
>broadcast your screen to thousands of people >cry when someone uses it against you
Lmao what a fucking pussy
Zachary Carter
I'm glad the doc doesn't give a shit about stream snipers.
Michael Sullivan
>I'm having this problem >oh well here is an easy solution >I DON'T LIKE THAT SOLUTION
literally women tier problem solving
Lucas Rodriguez
It's really fucking annoying. Fuck stream snipers and fuck stream honkers. Let me watch my streamers in peace you faggots.
I'll give a (You) to whomever can give a food analogy comparing to this.
Jeremiah Evans
This could be solved if streamers just put a longer delay in their streams, but they won't because having an audience of 20k+ viewers watching and noticing things that the streamer missed is an advantage that none of them are going to admit.
Andrew Lee
>inb4 developers ban players because of doing this Oh don't pretend the devs don't get a hard on when they see streamers playing their games! It already happened with the friday 13th game, it will happen there as well.
Josiah Reyes
>it draws nearby enemies So just shoot them before they get close enough to you >teamkilling is a bannable offense They aren't even on the same team
Angel White

That's how retarded you sound like right now
Angel Kelly
>make a public stream of yourself playing in realtime >act surprised when people use it as an advantage You're asking for it you fucking retard. Kys. Just kys.
Wyatt Parker
>watches streams >calls other faggots
Dude just,like, play the games yourself.
Kayden Gomez
Sniping ban is understandable looking at where an enemy is on their stream to get the upper hand is a form of cheating. It'd be like looking at an opponents hand in poker. Banned for honking a horn? Bullshit.
Ryder Lee
WHOOH DUDE WHOOH DUDE WHOOH GET DOWN ON THE GROUND DO A CAN CRUSH FOR JAY OWEN YOU HAVE 10 SECONDS TO COMPLY
Caleb Long
>stream snipers and now stream honkers will be banned once their actions are brought to the attention of the developers
Camden Ross
Because they bring their drones/fans to get interested in the game...seriously do you even think before you post?
Michael Brooks
wow how dare they *DING DING DING* THANK YOU FAGGOT99 FOR YOUR DONATION even consider *DING DING DING* THANK YOU OPISFAG78 FOR YOUR DONATION interrupting a stream with *DING DING DING* THANK YOU DIGDICK01 FOR YOUR DONATION an obnoxious noise
the fucking cheek
Colton Phillips
>forget
more like refuse to
Charles Brown
>forget to lock your car door
>voluntarily broadcast your in-game location to thousands of viewers
you're fucking retarded
James Miller
Wel, he's right you know, or you are those guys that says that rape's fault lies on the rapist and not on the idiot woman?
Dylan Davis
>“There’s nothing worse than getting stream sniped,”
how about getting stabbed in the face?
Logan Clark
>your phone number is in the phone book >that means people should call you 20 times at 3AM
Fuck off you retard
Sebastian Bennett
Can you really complain about other people in the game finding you easily when you're LITERALLY BROADCASTING YOUR POSITION CONSTANTLY?
Logan Kelly
...
Jayden Perry
I keep hearing about this shit and people sooking. I just now after seeing this thread loaded up a video to watch it.
Damn thats funny watching the Streamer getting more and more upset about it, demanding the person get banned.
Noah Bell
Watching streams is like eating chicken, you might enjoy it fried, but roasted chicken is akin to shoving religion down people's throats.
Blake Jenkins
>I don't know the difference between could and should Okay idiot.
John Thomas
Streamers deserve it for ruining the video games industry.
Ethan Flores
What a shit analogy, kek. One of those can actually end up being illegal in the states
Cameron Martinez
>broadcast your game to the world >it's somehow not your fault is someone uses this against you
Elijah Anderson
...
Easton Martin
>Don't lock your car door >Tell insurance company that >We're not paying out, you failed to secure the vehicle >WHAT THE FUCK REEEEEEEE This is you
Samuel Perry
what's struck me is why can't the streamer just hide what server they're on
blur out the map at all times or some shit
can't be that hard
Samuel Nelson
So what does honking do exactly?
Does it give away the streamers position or is it just annoying to listen to?
Why don't the streamers just shoot the person honking? Seems like an easy kill right?
someone pls answer these questions i dont play pubg
Tyler Mitchell
>forget to honk car door >lock yourself out of stream >call the cops >gabe comes and bans you from stealing video games
wtf it's like I'm a second class citizen
Jaxon Young
shit i meant
Adam Harris
>I should carry a gun because some trash doesnt have the self control to not rob me Granted thats a shaky metaphor but people are cunts and everyone should have the self agency to take care of something themselves if possible Its like reporting someone for saying nigger or faggot in a game instead of just muting them if you cant handle mean words
Jaxon Williams
It isn't your fault, it's the fault of the aspie who loaded up your steam just to harass you. Do you understand what "fault" means?
Ian Ward
can't those fools shoot those people? It's a shooter, right?
Streamers have saved and revolutionized vidya by adding a whole new dimension to games. Instead of just something you play yourself, now there are games where viewers who aren't even playing can influence the course of the game.
Brayden Wood
>streamers have been streaming games like Dota 2 and LoL for years with no problem from stream snipers because THEY ALL USE 2 MIN DELAYS >suddenly memerunknowns memergrounds streamers throw a bitchfit and refuse to have a delay to counteract sniping ???
Dominic Howard
>stream honkers will be banned
Owen Wilson
Stream honking is funny because it annoys them and since you aren't killing them (offering free kills) this shouldn't be an issue, now any streamer can claim someone "stream sniped" them when they lose
What a load of entitled babies
Gavin Parker
these salty tears of kid's cock-gobbing streamer's dick, mmm, my favourite
Jack Miller
>wont just fucking block out their game screen until they land >whines about stream sniping >dev sides with them
i like the game but god damn
Adam Baker
>not looping footage of yourself camping in one location to lure in stream snipers >not waiting in the grass 100m away and sniping bitches with the kar when they try and snipe you I swear, streamers have no fucking imagination
Levi Johnson
It's done all the time to no one's great detriment. These individuals are being disingenuous and petty to market themselves.
Not should, could, and yes, they could. And do you know what I could do? Turn off my fucking phone.
Luis Jenkins
Do you actually believe this?
How old are you?
Caleb Walker
>banning people because they aren't playing your game right but aren't cheating or otherwise exploiting/breaking the game
Fuck anyone that supports this.
Tyler Kelly
Shut it. I have over 12,000 subscribers and make over $5,000 a month streaming. I will not sit idly by while some underage losers try to literally destroy my livelihood and my ability to put food on the table, How dare you try to ruin someone's career for the "lulz."
William Mitchell
>be a loyal subscriber to a pubg streamer, among a few other streamers >low on money, but can cut a little bit on food to afford my monthly subscriptions >finally get my Mickey D's paycheck >rush to my computer so i can start subscribing and donating to my based streamer bros >after subscribing and donating around $20 each to all my favorite streamers, it's time to leave the best for last >i subscribe and donate $40 to based mr.disrespect >right as i do it, some ASSHOLE is honking his horn in stream, detracting the attention from my very special donation which goes nearly unnoticed because every one of my twitch chat bros are talking about the stream honker instead
I hate you fucking stream honkers, and wish you would all die
You people have zero regard for your fellow man, and i dearly hope someday you'll be prosecuted to the full extent of the law for all the grief and pain you've caused to the streamer community
Ethan Flores
>play the game for the first time >kill someone who happens to be a streamer >get permabanned >gaben steals your house >you go to prison
wtf i hate gaming industry now
Noah Thomas
Streamers should be banned.
Aiden Ward
>Banned for honking horns
What will they ban next?
Luis Wright
i know nothing about streaming or battlegrounds but it can't be that hard to tie a fade out to the map button or someshit?
Blake Collins
>I should be banned because some faggot streamer gets butthurt
Yeah, I know which one sounds less reasonable.
Owen Thomas
how the fuck does honking ruin your carreer
Daniel Powell
A thousand time this. Same shit applies to MOBAs where playing a character "wrong" can get you banned. Fuck modern multiplayer games.
James Reed
>go out of your way to ruin someone else's game >get banned >REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Kill yourself
Tyler Scott

Daniel Cook
@386286557 Now that bait is too obvious, no (you)s for you
Carter Carter
>Lock your doors That's the equivalent of "ban and keep out stream snipers". Streamers would like that.
Thomas Thomas

Caleb Campbell
>make meme game >market it with streamers, even having commercials for it that just show streamers playing it >actually put systems in place to see if people are purposely leaving and joining lobbies to end up in the same game as a streamer >actively give out bans if they suspect that you purposely stream sniped someone >people defend this
Levi Collins
>Now instead of stalking their favorite streamers and killing them, people have taken to following them around in cars and honking at them incessantly. This is fucking hilarious.
Isaac Johnson
People in my streams start calling me Honky and I tell them to shut up! Then everyone else starts making fun of me, and I have to take a few days off of streaming just to cope with it.
Noah Cooper
Lol fuck yourself loser - you're putting the vulnerability on yourself by streaming. Banning any snipers is horseshit - if anything, ban them from watching the stream, not the game
