Sir_Conor 946 Posted February 5, 2018 Thread for all new possible suggestions that Outbreak could either create a new server on. In this current suggestion phase, there is not going to be any real restriction except for the obvious of what we a feasibly actually do. As mention in the latest update for me personally, it would be nice if was an idea that Outbreak can make special, that will be interesting for new and old players and something that can have some sort of monetization to support Outbreak financially. I'm going to repost a part of my Hey Outbreak thread showing some of the things I personally look at when looking at possible new servers for Outbreak. New Servers Every time a new game comes out or something in OB gets plenty of players are interested in. Technically the first thing I'll check is can I actually create a community server after that some of the biggest things I look for are: What will make it an OB server? When thinking about creating a new server I want it to be an OB server something special, to give it OB personality. How can OB make it fun and special for new and old players alike. Players Does the server have a possibility of actually getting players? Is it popular in the community currently or is something we can get players over time. Members Can the players be turned into members. Is there a reason for new players to return to our server? Is there any benefits we can get Members without ruining anything for new players. Monetization Usually, this is just thinking about can the server be monetized to support OB. The OB coffers always need help and I want to be able to do special things for the community like tournaments that can back to people that may not play the main OB servers.

Pasickle 643 Posted February 5, 2018 CSGO 1v1 arena server with a competitive leader board. I feel like this would be rather useful for OB as many of the members are competitive cs players this will help them warm up at the same time as populating the server. The competitive leader board may bring new members to the community by coming into the server to try and stay at the top. 1 1 Jamie and FlaSh reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post

Or/and a DM server, i think a dm server would be better since it is a better way to prepare to play a game of cs and since the Ob Gathers are a lot more succesfull atm i think a dm server will fit in perfectly 2 Pasickle and FlaSh reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post
VENGA BUS 2,027 Posted February 5, 2018 If you're gonna make suggestions, at least do it in the format lol. (good ideas tho) Also if we're running low on coppers, just let us know. Pretty sure most of us would be happy to pitch in. 1 Jamie reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post

Bringing people into the community through these servers wouldn't be as hard as it seems either, from my experience in other retakes i've met some funny people who've i enjoyed playing with and if those types of people join, why not recommend checking out the forums. tl;dr for you lazy fucks Hard to monetise these servers Not that hard to get members from them Competitive leaderboards for more fun Edited February 5, 2018 by Akame™ 3 1 VENGA BUS, Pasickle, Scrune and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post

Vemix 205 Posted February 5, 2018 I may not know anything about ARK but I heard you can rack up a nice amount on a server. Like others have said a Retake/DM server would be nice but that would hardly get us members. People only come and go on those. You want a community for csgo get a TTT or expand the community via twitter or more social media like some communitys I have seen. (Possible RL Captian for RLCS for another community!)

I would really like to see some retake servers/exectute/dm servers.In my opinion it will grow the community atleast a little bit,if its done well. Quote Share this post Link to post

When you hop on a retake/dm server what do you mostly do? You train your aim before a csgo game or just train in general. I personally from what I have seen on Lanii servers have been the only dedicated member and even then their staff is most utter shit. Quote Share this post Link to post

I wouldnt base it of other community`s but I think with our community it will be different, just need to advertise gathers in some sort of way to draw the players attention while they are warming up/training and let them try it out. 13 minutes ago, Vemix said: When you hop on a retake/dm server what do you mostly do? You train your aim before a csgo game or just train in general Also since most of the players playing retake servers are planning to play a game of cs after,gathers/faceithub would interest them to it.Especially if there is a prize for first place which we have and if there is an increase in players to the new gather system we could increase prizes and it would motivate people to play more and potentially be apart of the community.It just has to be advertised well and if players/members from the community bumb into someone they chat with while training/warming up,they could also influence them to play a gather.

The only way prizes would be made if the player did them. Quote Share this post Link to post
