[QUOTE=X-Neon;41315123]You appear to be in the US. In Europe, Twitch can become basically unusable if there's a really big event on or something.[/QUOTE] i like watching people play games i like and can appreciate the skill level involved
[QUOTE=SPESSMEHREN;41315143]am I the only one who finds that watching other people play a video game is pretty boring and lame, and that making money off of playing a video game all day is even lamer?[/QUOTE] people watch it for they can learn. lots of games have insane learning curves like Dota 2
[QUOTE=Karmah;41312370]Is this update live?[/QUOTE] Yeah it's been live since it was announced.
It's too bad Twitch's customer support is getting as bad as Ustream's. Just take a look at their latest [URL="http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/22/twitch-tv-is-down-users-will-need-to-reset-their-passwords-when/"]fuckup[/URL].
They're letting it down because they have no competitor, since the shutdown of own3d, twitch became worse and worse because they have nobody to lose their customers to.
And still no Steam client optimization... Cmon man, it takes forever to open and fiddle about with....

That's cool and all, but can they please add the search function back into the mobile app already?
[QUOTE=Dr. Evilcop;41319182]That's cool and all, but can they please add the search function back into the mobile app already?[/QUOTE] The mobile app is in dire need of updating, especially with the new community.
I would be nice if Steam eventually got all the social streaming features that the PS4 will have, it would be pretty cool to be able to watch a live feed of your friend playing a game, maybe being able to take control of a friend's game if there's a difficult part etc.
Dopefish switched over to Twitch a few months ago after Livestream started asking them for more money. Hope this means Dope gets to better entertain us.

[QUOTE=Christarp3;41320160]sounds like facebook integration that does p much nothing wow big news guys[/QUOTE] Facebook integration just annoys your friends. This actually gives you things.
why the fuck doesn't steam have twitch integration fucking origin has it already. that's like the poor kid down the block getting a gameboy before the rich kid.

Good news I guess
[QUOTE=MaxOfS2D;41316483]I don't see the appeal myself, though for some specific games, or at a high skill level, it can be pretty fascinating to watch[/QUOTE] I've been able to enjoy watching professional TF2 in the same way it's interesting to watch an NFL or MLB match.
