Beginning of December, streamers were having a hard time trying to play Rust because snipers zerg in PvP.
Recently, OTV set up a private server for streamers only and the game has exploded in popularity.
Is it a bad idea to have a streamers only server?
Other benefits:
- Less streamers on other servers, because if streamers play on a different server they are consenting to being stream sniped.
- Opportunities for streamers to set up collaborative content/events in the one server.
- Major publicity centralized in one server.
- easier to manage the ebb and flow of streamers coming and going from a server.
- Streamers don't have a hoard of their audience giving them every item in the game.
