(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So I've had words with some of staff and this is why I am now making this poll to see what you guys think...

A lot of website nowadays have their own streaming pages and I want to make this happen on NGU but it's you guys who can make this happen! With your votes this idea could become reality here on NGU.

So lets get into it as I'm not making a poll without a giving you guys a rough idea what is in my head... Bare in mind all of this can be altered to perfection and this is just a base idea but it would be pretty similar.


  • A particular bunch of people that would be willing to stream, members old and new! (Was thinking "Stream Team") Name is subject to change if it does happen.

  • They would be given access to come to their onsite streaming page with a dedicated chatbox for user/streamer interactions.

  • Would have to have certain requirements for a good quality stream. These requirements would be things like a good upload speed and a HD capture device along with a PC or console. Also an intermittent connection wouldn't be beneficial. (All this could be discussed further).

  • Good activity would be a plus as well.

  • Basically I want you guys to have something like this to enjoy yourselves and have laugh and interact in a different way with the users. I also believe this could attract new users to the site.



Leave your thoughts below. Any troll/stupid comments will be removed.

Thanks and please vote and let us know what you think!

Wow, I really like this idea. I think this would bring a lot of new members to the forums as if we've got a good "Stream Team" more people will be interested in watching the streams. As for the stream team, I think it'd be a very good ad on and it would bring new people to the forums as well. I also think that the stream team should have a separate user bar and username colour, maybe a purple user bar and purple user name? I'd also be glad to help out on this, help setting it up and stuff. I also think that on the stream page were the video's are being streamed there should be a chat box, so like a shout box but a bit smaller and more vertical.

I have one more idea, I think that if this idea does happen we should have give aways in the stream. So we can give away codes and stuff to the users that are watching the stream, I would be able to do this.

It's great to see some of you guys wanting this in and some of you willing to take part!

Also could people who would generally just like to watch this kind of thing let me know what you think?

Welp, here it is again, a great idea made, but will NGU actually go 110% full effort on it? Ehhhhh.

Well, I'm sure this idea was brought up before, and I like the idea of it, and I would be interesting in helping y'all and it's nice how that the next-gen consoles can stream for ya without getting extra shit, but yeah great idea, I'm sure a lot of people would wanna help out, it's just NGU gets great ideas all the time like this and the staff just doesn't go all out on it lol.

I'd really like to see this idea come into action. Sitting down and sorting out how it would work would be something I'd also like to do. As I said in the OP I've already spoke to some staff members, not all of them and this is why the poll was made.

Basically we need people to give us their thoughts, even those who will just be the viewers! Would you view this if we have people to do this? I'll leave this poll open for the foreseeable future to see how it goes.
