[2022] Twitch Mode Interruptions

over 2 years ago - /u/Fatshark_Hedge - Direct link

Heroes!

Throughout February, there will be some intermittent interruptions of the (now legacy) tech that drives Twitch Mode in Vermintide 2. This will ultimately lead to a “permanent” shut down on the last day of the month. We still have some work to implement the changes needed to retool the Twitch Mode to work with the new tech in place.

As soon as the changes are implemented and verified on our side, we’ll work to hotfix the issue for our PC players. There will be a more protracted downtime for our players on PlayStation and Xbox as we will likely place fixes into the next content updates on those platforms.

Twitch have published the schedule for the planned downtimes of this service:

February 9, 2022 – 2-hour shutdown starting at 11:00am PDT (8:00 pm CET)
February 14, 2022 – 4-hour shutdown starting at 11:00am PDT
February 16, 2022 – 6-hour shutdown starting at 11:00am PDT
February 21, 2022 – 24-hour shutdown starting at 11:00am PDT
February 28, 2022 – Permanent shutdown

We truly understand how important Twitch mode is, whether you’re a Streamer or just enjoy the extra spice Twitch Mode delivers in your games. We will do all we can to minimize the interruption to the game mode and keep you updated on this situation as soon as we’ve got more info to share.

This is a result of changes on Twitch's end right?

Twitch are deprecating the APIs we use that enable Twitch Mode in favour of a more contemporary suite of APIs. We're in the process of updating our implementation to use these newer APIs, but until those updates are in the live game, there will be downtimes as per the schedule in the OP.

Just to clarify:

So it is safe that twitch mode will come back at some point after the end of the month but it will be temporarily disabled until you have integrated the new twitch api tech stuff?

So it will come back but after some currently unknown down time due to new implementation?

Yep!

We’re not all clued in on what possibilities there are with Twitch’s new tech, just that their new tools arent compatible with our 4 year old game so we need to make some changes to keep twitch mode in Vermintide 2 working.

Any news about when twitch integration will be back? Is it possible to say if we should expect days, weeks or months of downtime?
