i think the complaint of caster/obs disconnect mostly kinda falls on the casters rather than the observer ngl
we used to regularly use a plugin that let the caster snap to observer pov any time we wanted to on a toggle bind, but nowadays we dont use it for most coverage for reasons im not really comfortable talking about on the forums
we DO however have a live obs feed for casters to use (i casted from it exclusively last season). Getting used to casting from a first person feed can be quite scary and i understand why most of my peers prefer to cast from an stv (usually at lan casters have both an stv and a stream feed) but it is very doable. Obviously when casting from home youre almost always doing it from a top down pov, which we would never show on broadcast. Getting used to pov casting takes a bit more time and a bit of practice
tf2 is a really dense game and a lot of the time there are too many things going on at once, as an observer (or anyone) you WILL miss something important when watching through a game, and atm getting the big boy esports split screen that league/dota/cs etc. has is just not realistic
this is a very rambly way of saying that the observer/caster disconnect will probably always be a thing and tf2 fights are too big and complicated for it not to be the case, but casters have a fairly straight forward way of fixing it ty for reading
