There's no doubt that streaming is huge right now. Whether you're a huge community/site such as Magic: The Gathering and the Capcom Pro Tour or just stream now and then, most (if not all) PC gamers have the technical capabilities to stream; it's just getting the proper setup going between your game, your streaming software of choice (for me that would be XSplit), and making sure everything runs smoothly. For those who like playing Wargaming.net games, that process just became easier.
Gamers can now stream their World of Tanks and World of Warplanes gameplay directly from their respective clients with the new WG Stream mod. Now with one simple click you can stream your gameplay directly to your Twitch.tv channel. Since the launch of the mod, broadcasts for these two games have doubled and spectatorship for them has increased by 18%.
