Changes to the Media Rank + Media Team!

Is previous MC-War content considered? <3

 

For the marketing team, could we implement rewards based off of how many players they bring to the server. Maybe when a player logs in for the first time, they can type a creator name in chat and it will add to that creators count?? Maybe we could even include a new forum trophy??? I'm just trying to brainstorm more reasons for more people to make content for the server

 

Do you guys not know how many people got big doing literally this? People would literally upload HG games and get thousands of subs. Encouraging this would be much wiser, more content is better.

Glad you guys are finally doing this. I suggested it as far back as the raid media event, though wouldn't be surprised if it didn't even get discussed. Anyways, this is something that should absolutely be done.

 

I agree with this, well-edited montages and stuff are cool, but they are inefficient. There's a reason that the biggest gaming YouTubers don't really get big off of these types of videos and instead get big off of literally just commentary over gameplay which is the most bingeable type of content + most sustainable in terms of time it takes to make a video.

For example, a well-edited WarZ montage that took 2-3 hours to make might get 200-300 views, but a 10 min episode with minimal editing asides from maybe some funny moments usually gets closer to 500+

Tbh, at this point Brawl just needs to spam videos if you really want the server to gain players lol

 

I advocated for this whevlnever I got involved in the media aspect, which was only like two or three times. I've said why it should be done before, so if they care to know why it would work, they can scroll through the staff server and find it. I could list a few servers it has worked for, but it seems like too much effort.

 

Maybe in certain gamemodes, but are you aware of any small to medium sized HG players from back in the day? Maybe the gamemode was more fun that what is left (personal opinion), but straight gameplay was enough to get 5housands of subs and views. Publicity in quantity, to become visible, should be top priority, with small amount of high quality, since you have a tiny playerbase currently. When you have the resources, you begin shifting. You can't behave like a massive network until you reclaim the status of ACTUALLY being a massive network.

I think that, if certain things change, the promotions I saw will be massive for the network.

 

Yeah most of this is fine and fair I guess but I see one issue and It’s a glaring one.

these two are mutually exclusive. You can’t ask people to upload a ton of content (once a week isn’t necessarily a lot, but for example, I make a video when an idea presents itself and don’t go looking for ideas to make videos, if that makes sense) so if someone else subscribed to the same thought process behind videos i did, they’d probably have trouble finding content eventually. I know for a fact if I tried to make decent content on raid these days I’d run out of ideas within a week. In which case, you have to allow people to upload let’s plays / commentary’s. That’s literally 99% of all HCF you tubers content which allows them to upload daily, and seems to work for them. The only reason people watch them is because their personality. Which if you don’t make insane edits / are very good at the game, personality is all you have.

content should obviously be judged. If it’s literally just meaningless garbage then Someone losing their rank over that would be justified. But you can’t tell people they need to upload a lot and also tell them it needs to be content with lots of thought out into it. It just doesn’t work.

you want a lot of content? Tell them they have to upload a ton but have no rules on quality. Want really good content? Have strict rules on quality / hours put into the videos, but don’t have a upload schedule.

you don’t get to have both.


P.S. my channel is very small, but the most popular video I have on there is quite literally just random shadow plays of me and my friends time on raid. That stuff is fun to watch.

 

This is impossible, the server is in a very bad spot and has been for a while. Until the reset, there is not really any content that would promote the server, other than making content for contents sake.

Rsugar for media

 

Sounds like an interesting change

 

Interesting...
