They didn't really get in the way of the match, but likewise, they didn't add anything to it in my opinion. If anything, the reactions to some plays were distracting since I had a face to go along with the chatter.

We're kind of there to watch ships beating each other to death, though. Typically, all we need from commentators is audio.

I actually found that they did get in the way. Every time one of them made an exaggerated movement, it drew my eye away from the match to them. It was like having a screen in a screen, where the second screen didn't actually have a purpose.

Okay sweet thanks for the feedback.
I'll remove the webcams from the actual game, how about just using webcams for pre game talk etc?

I'll make a nice overlay graphic with squares for me and swallow.

Cheers,

Qwerty

I would call it a distraction during cogs, but a great addition to usual streams.

Maybe keep it for sniping matches or when one team keeps camping King on the Hill on Scrap while the other team is playing the Dunes. Gives the stream something to watch, withle nothing is going on.

The FPS should be higher, though.

I'm sure Swallow will be happy to know that people were saying that he looks like a teddy bear (I could completely change what this sentence implies if I removed the spaces in "a teddy bear")

That sounds like a good compromise.
