TimTheTatman: “Warzone Screen Size Doesn’t Matter”

TimTheTatman

Players of Call of Duty: Warzone are all too familiar with the dangers of playing on a TV rather than a monitor. But, while gaming on the Cowboys’ stadium Jumbotron, TimTheTatman discovered the truth and that is; screen size doesn’t matter in Verdansk.

Input lag, response time, and latency are just a few of the terms used to describe the technical aspects of multiplayer gaming. However, the principle is simple: larger screens are great for watching TV shows and movies, but they aren’t perfect for gaming.

In fact, among competitive FPS (first-person shooter) gamers in particular, it’s a hot topic. Have you ever puzzled why someone seemed to murder you before you even saw them when you were watching TV? Because the delays on a PC and monitor are much smaller than on a console and TV, it’s extremely likely they did.

Imagine playing on the Dallas Cowboys’ Jumbotron screen, which is… 160 feet wide, if people think a 65-inch TV isn’t a good gaming setup. Tim not only did it, but he also put all scuffed gamers on his back by winning.

Tim has started his AT&T Roadshow, where he streams from various locations, shortly after joining Complexity Gaming. The first was in the stadium of his favorite NFL team, where he played games against a large backdrop with star running back Ezekiel Elliott.

Tim opted to try playing on the large screen directly after getting his feet wet. The game wasn’t going to function properly for the PC gamer at 160 feet wide and 72 feet tall, yet he persisted. When he received kills, there were pyrotechnics, his teammates were unwavering in their support, and the ending was worthy of the Guinness Book of World Records.

TimTheTatman came out on top in the end. It wasn’t nice, with only four kills and less than 1,000 damage, but it was still a win.

While previous pros like MerK and TeeP assisted the Complexity streamer, he taught us all a good lesson: even when the odds are stacked against you (hundreds of feet high in this example), if you can trust on your colleagues, keep your head up, and commit to a shared goal, you can do anything. Passion and teamwork, not screen size, decide your worth.
