First-ever Wardogs stream ends in a Twitch ban. The rationale? A rogue, flying dildo

There are some issues that I do not count on to be writing about on a Friday morning. In my a few years as a journalist I’ve coated shock launch date drops, firm acquisitions, and the whole lot in between. I’ve by no means, nevertheless, needed to write about flying dildos. I suppose there is a first for the whole lot.

Throughout their first-ever Twitch stream, Wardogs developer Bulkhead was banned mid-broadcast. Why, you might ask? As a result of, in the midst of a really critical match, one developer selected to launch a quite massive, shiny yellow dildo at his colleague. The incident – which Bulkhead has entitled ‘Dildogate’ – led to a direct, dwell suspension that is set to final for sooner or later. It isn’t the longest ban on this planet, however it’s actually humorous.

“WHAT!!!!!” Bulkhead writes on X, displaying a Twitch warning message that reads “you’ve briefly been suspended from streaming for sooner or later.” A fast take a look at the developer’s official channel additionally reveals a notification explaining that “this channel can not stream at the moment resulting from a violation of Twitch’s Neighborhood Pointers.”

After having a fast perusal of stated pointers, I am fairly certain yeeting a dildo at a colleague most likely falls, comparatively loosely, below ‘sexual content material,’ which prohibits the “show of intercourse toys in a non-educational context, comparable to bragging in regards to the dimension of a dildo.” Whether or not or not Bulkhead’s dildo-yeeting might be deemed instructional is an argument for one more day. Bluntly, I am simply glad it wasn’t aimed toward my head – it was fairly huge.

The stream, which is not obtainable as a vod on Bulkhead’s channel, seems to have continued elsewhere. “Thanks all a lot for watching our FIRST (and second…) ever Wardogs livestreams. It was a memorable evening.”

Wardogs, which sits at a stable 42 on Steam’s most-wishlisted charts (beating out Gears of Conflict: E-Day and Halo: Marketing campaign Developed), is about to launch in 2026, and options hardcore, tactical FPS fight. “Wishlist on Steam to make the ache price it,” Bulkhead writes, and truthfully, I’d simply.
