Forums - Gaming Discussion - Has anyone faced a famous youtuber before?

I wouldn't recognize a famous 'Youtuber' if a 'Youtuber' walked into my living room with a t-shirt that said "I'm a famous 'Youtuber'.

No but to semi relate to the op and the Halo post...I played some of the developers at Bungie in Halo Reach...I know it doesn't count...it just reminded me of it.

This is cooler to me than playing some YouTube "star" douchebag.  

It was pretty cool. I think it had something to do with a winning streak and the servers but all I remember is ending up in the lobby with 2 gamers that had unique Bungie gamerpics and the flaming Hayabusa helmet about two weeks before it was released to the public.

 

We played two 4v4 games and we won both games.

To be honest...we owned both games. :)

 

Edit: come to think it might have been the Recon helmet...I can't remember...

lol I wish Sony would allow us!

And like you I haven't played against a youtuber but I've matched with pros in Halo.

Heinz and Str8 sick in Halo 4, recently in MCC Dersky and Naded (Naded was on my team twice)

Well ... I did play with a Youtuber, just not a famous one xxxxDDDD I'm not lucky enough for that!

It's so cool that you've played with pro players though I remember when I was first getting into the idea of "competitive" gaming, I would play with this 15 year old that kept talking about how he was a Pro  player. Looking back on it, it is funny, lmao. Such a "pro" that I looked up to. 

If there's anyone I wish I could have played with who was a "pro" it would be NBK from Counter Strike Global Offensive. He was so underrated when he was on Titan. Everyone just cared about KennyS but as a leader NBK was an ace of all trades. Dude was tight. I tried to start watching competitive again, and apparently he and KennyS are on a new team again. Which is pretty cool. Too bad my  MLG phase kind of left a long time ago. 



Im highly ranked in SFV (Diamond) so I face top players and youtubers regularly.

I don't even know any famous YouTubers, lol. Guess I'm too old for that, I'm sure my son could tell me all about that stuff.

I met Britney though in RL once. Which means I paid a stupid amount of cash to get top notch tickets for one of her shows for the chance to see her for like 12 seconds and get an autograph and stuff. But anyway, no regrets whatsoever. =D



Official member of VGC's Nintendo family, approved by the one and only RolStoppable. I feel honored.

No, but I met and talked with a lot of game developers over the years.

My personal highlights:

Ron Gilbert (Monkey Island series, Maniac Mansion, Thimbleweed Park)

Charles Cecil (Broken Sword series, Beneath/Beyond a Steel Sky)

Ragnar Tørnquist (The Longest Journey / Dreamfall series, Draugen)

Boris Schneider-Johne (German translator of Monkey Island 1 + 2 and Thimbleweed Park, editor-in-chief at two of the most successful game magazines in Europe in the 1990s, PR Manager and Product Manager of the German Xbox team until 2011)

Jan „Poki“ Müller-Michaelis (Deponia series, Edna & Harvey, The Whispered World)



I used to work in Los Angeles as a driver, an actor, and at a large private airport. Met plenty of celebrities through the latter two, met a few Youtubers on their way to YT's production studio through the former - though their names/channels escape me atm.



I played Lowtiergod in Smash... or at least someone with that name. They played a Min-min mirror when the character was new, and ragequit, so good chance it was them.



The only "famous YouTuber" I might actually care about is James Rolfe (AVGN), and he's not really into that scene.
