Hi all,

I need help here please so please do get involved!

I am chatting to a new sponsor of my stream - they are very keen to join and have asked me to create a WISH LIST of games & hardware that YOU as viewers could WIN.

Remember, to win is so easy and I plan to keep it that way.

1. Subscribe to my channel
2. Like the videos - you are even welcome to DISLIKE the videos, but you must please comment on the videos and say WHY you disliked the videos.
3. Interact on the streams, by either joining the discord channel or by joining in on the chat while the stream is active.

With that said, without me going and "googling" "top games" etc - post what games and computer hardware you'd like to see and hopefully win.

Dont be ridiculous obviously and say "a gaming laptop that costs R50K" because I doubt that will happen (then again, we never knew where my channel is going to go!)

So... post away!
Remember, you welcome to include PS4, XBOX ONE and PC games and hardware.

I'll draw up this list and send it on once I have enough information.

You can start with something like your GPU, GTX 1060 6GB and on stream you can promote how it's the same one you're using to game and stream with right now in 1080P60 no problem.

Maybe a nice Samsung SSD too.

And for games I would think Ghost Recon, Mass Effect, NieR, Sniper Ghost Warrior or some upcoming games like Prey, Destiny 2 and Shadow of War.

medicnick - I appreciate all the effort you're putting into this. Kudos...wishing you much success.

I don't watch game streams except for tournaments (CS GO, Starcraft 2) but I'll try to make an attempt to pop-in now and then.

That is super awesome, congrats

I guess mouse-keyboard-headphones-ssd and such are always nice gifts, unless vouchers can be obtained to spend on whatever you feel like at said "sponsor"

Thanks for that Purply - I've added your suggestions - what I did was, I went to TakeAlot, Raru and Steam and looked at their "Top Sellers" and then combined with what I see people want online (other forums) have slapped a nice list together - how the sponsor is going to do things going forward, I need to discuss still - for now, I just need to get the wishlist done.

Hi all,

Based on feedback received.

I've added "NIGHTBOT" to the STREAM - it has a whole list of features, but the main reason I want it is to monitor the people who chat (those who don't join via Discord)

As you all know - to win prizes etc, I want people to SUBSCRIBE, LIKE or DISLIKE (with reasons!) and then INTERACT (be it via Discord for via the chat) - so to make sure the INTERACT part is monitored nicely is to have a app/bot that keeps information of "REGULAR" chatters and also "TOP" chatters.

I want to watch and support you but I physically can't watch The Division.

Edit: You played Wildlands and I missed it.

I know bud, I know I play alot of "The Division" but I do really enjoy the game - however, I plan to be more varied with the game play.
Watch this space - you yourself know I am constantly looking for ways to improve and such and I do appreciate your feedback.

I know, I once told you on stream to play the stuff you like, no point in forcing yourself to play something you don't enjoy, then it's going to feel like work.

Hi all,

So today I finally managed to get time to sit down with the PS4 and setup remote play via OBS.
I did 2 test streams which you can watch - according to a viewer the stream was "fine" with "no issues" but on my side there was MASSIVE frame rate drops - obviously I'm running through a wireless connection (PS4 Pro) so maybe that was the problem - however, watching the 1st 'test' stream back I didn't see issues so I'm waiting for the 2nd stream to finish "processing" to confirm.

I'll run a LAN cable ASAP.

Hi all,

I've been doing some testing as some of you may have noticed;

1. I can stream from my XBOX ONE
2. I can stream from my PS4 Pro

At request - I've been asked to play some older games as well, not just the newer popular ones - I fully agree with that and played C&C Red Alert 1 last night - I'll do more of that - promise.

1 complaint I received was that when I "GO LIVE" - people only get notifications (especially on mobiles) AFTER I have stopped streaming - I've asked YouTube about that a few days ago around and I'm awaiting feedback - on testing this myself, I've noticed it as well - I start and stop a stream and then the notification appears on my cellphone - I apologize for that I guess.

I have received queries regarding sponsoring of my stream - I'm fully open to that - so if you are interested in sponsoring prizes, please do contact me on "medicnick83 @ gmail.com" and we can discuss it further.

I've also started changing the images (YouTube refers to it as THUMBNAILS) on the streams - if you are a subscriber and a member on the discord channel and especially a "CHAMPION" (Someone who has contributed to the stream) then you can choose the images and such.

Thanks all.

Maybe start/stop/start stream right in the beginning so that everyone gets the notification :D

I've watched some of your streams, it's the most fun when you interact with team mates. The Division as a game is just a bit boring to watch for me, the C&C game it would have been nice if you said what you're planning to do, why you're building it, are you trying to rush, etc. (I only watched the first 10 minutes though). You are filming your face/recording your voice, interact, it's not only about the game you're playing, you want to engage even if you're not directly talking to the audience.

I'd love if you played something like Dead by Daylight with some people from your stream and just recorded everyone speaking.

Busy going over some of your Ghost Recon vids.

Hi all,

I've spent the better part of 2 hours muddling around with the general "overlay" for my stream and made some changes.
Obviously, I looked at a few other Twitch streamers and such and saw what they did - I plan to do more but please let me know what you think of the current overlay.

I like:

You interact. :D

Careful with the links at the top, lots of your games health overlays are there. border change to red maybe?
I will say something terrible about your logo, brace yourself, but the m needs to change from black. I basically can't ever see it in most games.
