Developers of Escape from Tarkov Banned on Twitch Following Imitating Suicide on Stream

Published

on

Developers behind the game Escape from Tarkov have been banned from Twitch after a member of their team imitated a suicide act during a recent stream.

The official Battlestate Games Twitch channel has been banned for violating the streaming platform’s Community Guidelines.

The act in question occurred during a stream on December 29th, a member of their dev team wearing a balaclava picked up an unloaded pistol, cocked the gun, placed it to the side of his head, and pulled the trigger.

The act was done apparently to convey frustration over a price of an expensive in-game item.

There is currently no update as when, or if, the channel will be unsuspended from Twitch.

Published

on

We have rolled out a new update for the Gamactica mobile app for both Android and Apple. Below are the patch notes:

  • Fixed Notifications issues: we resolved the issue where not all notifications were being pushed.
  • Notifications Menu: many users reported that they would prefer the menu tab for Notifications to be more prominent on the Menu, so we moved it to a higher placing for easier navigation.
  • Members Menu item: Officially renamed ‘Members’ to ‘Gamacticans’ in the menu tab
  • Gamactica Global: re-developed the Gamactica Global section, and created a LIVE tab present on the Menu. This will direct you to the Gamactica Global section where you can see streamers from around the world who are streaming live on Twitch, and find live channels based on language, location.
