So basically I was playing the other day a little, and one of my friends was on Steam, and he wanted to watch so he jumped on my broadcast thing.  As you might expect from the title, I experience significant fps loss to the point where I was having trouble playing.  This happens whenever he watches my broadcast in Hawken, but not in other games.

 

Anyone have any ideas why this is happening or if there is a fix for it?  It's kinda lame that it only happens in this game.

hawken is already tweaked as far as it will go for most of us perhaps hawken is doing alot more traffic than those other games try making sure bandwidth is set automatic and not unlimited and i hope your using hardware encoding for streaming over the net

A guess:  probably due to the fact that Hawken wasn't originally built for Steam at all.  It had a very poorly made built-in system for spectating peoples matches, and my guess is that Adhesive slopped their way through making that 'work' on Steam rather than rewriting it FOR Steam.


To be serious for a moment this is just a joke
