Title: Ideas
Post by: RedVulnus on April 26, 2015, 06:11:22 pm
Okay a couple of ideas for possibly getting more members, but I was unsure of where to post so putting it here.

First
Having a larger scale set of RPs designed around having a good number of players.
This of course would require a good number of players, or a good bit of commitment from those we do have. I think having a long running, consistent RP would help give us credibility as an RP community and would give something for new people to join that has some history.
I'd be up for being a primary GM though I'd like it if we had a couple to help in case one of the GMs can't be on at one time or another

Second
We have a steam group, why not try and be a gaming community. We have people interested in all genres pretty much, and we can organize events to get together on the steam group and here. We could also make a division or whatever its called in PS2 since we've got a few people here who are into the game, and then grow that.


EDIT
On the steam group
If people think it's a good idea to try and make a gaming community with it then I'll start wearing the tag in some games and trying to recruit for the group. I'll also try and run a few events in games that I do own (probably payday 2, unturned, Planteside 2, Star Bound, and Dying Light, Company of Heroes 2) and I'd like ot have a few people who have games in other genres who'd be up for running events.
On The PlanetSide 2 guild
I'd either make it or have someone else here make it and then start recruiting for it. I'd also like to get some of us together in a squad and move around, as that might give the recruitment drive a bit of legitimacy. If we do this I'd like to get with whoever is in charge(if I don't make the guild) and set up some guidelines and rules, essentially how we expect our members to conduct themselves and what they are and aren't allowed to do.

Both of those sound good to me, so, both?

Alright then
I'll get to work on the RP, though I'll probably put up a dev thread sometime
As far as the steam group I can't put up events or anything, think I need to be either an Admin or Moderator to do that. Also, for those who don't know I'm Vulnus_Harrow on steam. Also, I'll probably start putting up a link to the Steam group in my videos and such. If I'm going to try and recruit may as well go all the way.

EDIT: Going to hop into Unturned, put on the group tag, and record. whether or not I put up a video depends on quality and what you guys think. This ain't my community so in the end I'm not going to make that kind of decision, so if you guys don't want me putting up links to the steam group in videos that's fine.

Okay. having trouble getting good footage, I'm either constantly dieing to zombies or getting disconnected from the server...fun.

Protip for unturned preview, you just need to get the zombies one by one. The basic punch stunlocks individual zombies real good.

In the preview it doesn't work as well as it used to. Can't stun-lock them anymore. Still can take them out WITH YOUR BARE HANDS.

I certainly like the idea of an over-arching RP plot and would support it. However I believe we should discuss the theme of it more since I too have ideas for a setting. I'll make a separate thread now for it.
