Tommey begs for Warzone stream-sniper fix after being hunted in Nadeshot\u2019s $100k event Instagram: tommeyjt \/ Activision100 Thieves\u2019 very own Thomas \u2018Tommey\u2019 Trewren was playing in Matthew \u2018Nadeshot\u2019 Haag\u2019s $100K Invitational when stream-snipers spoiled the competition. Far from the first time this has happened, the Warzone star took to social media to plead for a permanent fix. For the biggest Warzone personalities, there\u2019s nothing quite as frustrating as the lack of a proper streamer mode. Without masking their identities in-game, enemies are able to watch their broadcast and hunt them down for easy kills. It\u2019s been a prevalent issue since Warzone shot to the top of the battle royale genre last year and \u2014 unfortunately \u2014 it doesn\u2019t appear to be getting any better at the moment either. Players are constantly exposing stream snipers in their lobbies, though some are more terrifying than others. Despite asking for a fix back in March, and even getting a response last week, Tommey is still encountering these pesky players on a near-daily basis. It just so happened the latest incident came during Nadeshot\u2019s massive $100K tourney. \u201cHi Raven Software, just really want to know if you plan on changing streamer mode,\u201d he asked in a May 18 tweet. An accompanying video showed the perspective of someone Tommey wiped out part-way through the competition. Immediately after being downed, the streamer noticed who they\u2019d been killed by. \u201cNo way, that\u2019s Tommey,\u201d they screamed while also broadcasting live for the world to see. \u201cHe\u2019s in 100 Thieves. F***ing pussy, I hate that f***ing guy.\u201d Moments later, he realized he could track Tommey down for some swift revenge: \u201cHe\u2019s streaming? He\u2019s in a tournament\u2026 I\u2019m stream-sniping this pussy.\u201d Hi @RavenSoftware, You guys have been incredible the last few months with fixing things and interacting with the community, I just really want to know if you plan on changing the streamer mode? People suck and do this shit daily. Thanks, Tom pic.twitter.com\/ZnLwB9HDrc\u2014 Tommey (@Tommey) May 19, 2021 All the player had to do was pull up Tommey\u2019s Twitch stream to instantly know his whereabouts in Verdansk. Upon winning his Gulag, he could drop back in and make it his sole focus to try and kill Tommey. While this example caught fire online, Tommey assured it was one of many. \u201cSad part is, this happened multiple times today, as it does to near all streamers.\u201d Obviously, this creates an extremely unfair dynamic, one which ultimately saw Tommey bowing out of the $100K tournament in 13th place. The moment was swept up in a storm on Twitter, with Tommey\u2019s original post netting more than 4.7k likes, and more than 300 comments from CouRage, JGOD, Symfuhny, and plenty more. Perhaps fearing backlash, the stream sniper soon tried to apologize: \u201cI was in the heat of the moment and shouldn\u2019t [have] said what I said.\u201d Read More: All Warzone Season 3 Reloaded map changes – \u201cNot true,\u201d Tommey fired back. \u201cWe watched your whole VOD back and you played the entire game for us. I woulda\u2019 loved for you to just apologize and move on. Sh** happens, you live and you learn.\u201d Not true, we watched your whole VOD back and you played the entire game for us. I woulda’ loved for you to just apologise and move on. Shit happens, you live and you learn. \u2014 Tommey (@Tommey) May 19, 2021 Countless pro players and popular streamers chimed in to express their displeasure with the state of Warzone. For the time being though, the current streamer mode simply doesn\u2019t cut it for most of the biggest names. Beyond asking Tommey what he\u2019d like to see done, Raven Software has been quiet on the issue. There\u2019s no telling when we might see the issue resolved so competitions can play out with no fear for stream-snipers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
