Streamer Mode: the host against the audience

Streamer Mode turns this GTA V map guessing game into a show for streams and big groups. The audience guesses each location first, then the host guesses with every audience pin visible. The host wins by beating the audience's average total, with 2–100 players in one invite party.

How a round plays

A game has 5 rounds. Each starts with the audience phase: every audience player has 45 seconds to pin the location, and those pins stay private. Then the host phase begins, and the host gets 45 seconds with all audience pins shown on their map.

The true location stays hidden until the round settles, so the crowd can be confidently wrong together. The host has to decide whether to follow the cluster, split the difference or trust their own read of the scene. In a Custom game the audience and host clocks can be set separately.

Who wins

Every round score is the normal one, with up to 5,000 accuracy points and a speed bonus of up to 10% measured within the player's own phase. At the end, the host's total is compared with the audience's average total. The comparison uses exact whole-number arithmetic, so no rounding tips a close game either way.

The audience roster is frozen when the game starts. An audience player who misses a round or leaves still counts in the average with 0 for those rounds, which pulls the audience down. Equal totals are a draw, and if the host leaves, the audience wins by forfeit. Streamer Mode has no leaderboard.

Setting up a Streamer game

Streamer Mode runs only as an invite party, from 2 to 100 players. The host creates the lobby and shares the code with viewers or friends. There is an option to hide the lobby code, which is useful when the setup screen is visible on a live stream.

It works with small groups too. With 2 players it becomes a quick one-on-one in which the host sees the other pin before answering. That makes a fair handicap when an experienced player takes on a newer one, and a relaxed way to learn the flow before a bigger stream.

Streamer Mode tips

  1. Hosts: read the spread, not just the center. A tight cluster usually means an easy location; a wide scatter means the crowd is guessing and your own read matters more.

  2. Hosts: use your 45 seconds to confirm. You can still look around and walk, so check a sign before trusting the crowd.

  3. Audience: answer every round. A missing answer counts as 0 in the average, which hands the host an easier target.

  4. Audience: be quick as well as close. Your speed bonus runs within the audience phase, and every point lifts the average the host has to beat.

  5. For a newer community, a Custom game limited to Los Santos keeps locations recognizable, while the full map is the better test for regulars.
