Advertising obviously helps but it helps because it increases the visibility of the game. If Summit started playing it again don't tell me some of the 1000s that watch him won't download and try it? Especially if he seems to be having a fun time. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True there were those who did not like it , and I can think of how one was griefed non stop while playing APB. But in the end , APB is changing for the better so I believe APB news can be better than back then with those streamers. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rade 54 Posted January 21, 2019 This is the sort of stuff I would expect the community manager to do. WitchQueen should be Community Manager! I think you have potential to make this into something very big, I'm interested to see how it develops over the coming months. Keep rolling. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure CM is so much more than making a video every few weeks though. First development is to think of some more challenges and start using fonts that people can read rather than fonts I like lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He explodes in popularity again. The game gets a resurgence in popularity and the game is actually growing again after its dismal launch and now it has all other top streamers trying to leach off summit's and Sea of thieves success. Now it's at the top of twitch. I think summit had 80k viewers on that game last night. Remember how everyone hated Sea of Thieves at launch? Look at it now. Can it happen to APB? eh I dunno. But it's basically free advertising and you're delusional (or live under a rock) to think it wouldn't affect the game population given how much twitch and youtube dominate game visibility these days.

Especially considering we had a measurable increase in players after your meme-y APB video got really popular. Streamers and Youtubers are the best form of advertising for games these days. It's like word of mouth except a thousand times more effective. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, that's likely true. Always did my best to point them in the right direction when I saw them. Use the advanced district select etc. Damn shame that video got big a month or 2 too soon :v Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And if that ain't proof I dunno what is. Just make sure you have a video ready for engine release, new contacts and basically every new update.
