PewDiePie - Let's play!
Hello kreedz players! I just had a conversation with SoUlFaThEr and we talked abit about the activity of KZMOD. Since KZMOD didn't really get all the attention that it should get, we though of a plan that might help raise the activity in the game by writing a PM to the famouse youtuber PewDiePie and ask him to try out KZMOD and help us get the game really running! I'm sure SoUlFaThEr and all the other in the KZMOD adminstration would be GLAD to have people showing their respect by helping out and trying to get this message to PewDiePie and hopefully get more people to try out the game!
For you who don't know who PewDiePie is, he's a Swedish gamer that actually earns money from making youtube videos and having people watch them. He plays ALOT of new games and unfamiliar ones, so It's a fairly big chanse that he might try out KZMOD if we gather up enough requests from us players!(for the record, he has the most subscribers on youtube and he always get's millions of views on his videos so this will SURELY make some difference.)
For you who decides to help out, huge respect to you guys and thank you for helping out!
PewDiePie currently has: 24.860.518 subscribers on youtube.

PS!: Please add SoUlFaThEr contact information in your email because he would really like to show PewDiePie around and guide him! :)

That's fine, it's your opinion :) But could you please explain why?
Sure, well first of all i think that guy is aweful. That ofc is my opinion. He has a large fanbase yes, so has justin bieber btw, but does this guy ever make a serious video? I think that would backfire hardcore in him making fun of the game and showing glitches instead of gameplay...
The idea, to have a rather known youtuber, play us is nice in general. But please choose someone, that dosnt focus on stupidity to make his audience giggle. Im not very familiar in this genre, so i can not suggest anyone. Cheers to your initiative tho ;)

Thanks for replying and I can agree that he makes some jokes in his videos BUT... He will firstly contact soulfather(if he decies to accept) they will talk about what will happen, and SF can mention that he want's to keep it a bit serious, since we are really asking for his help right now. I personally believe that PewDiePie could make a good job out of this and really help us, but that's ofcourse my opinion, and btw, Justin Bieber is also good in my opinion >:(
Anyways, thanks for you mature response and I'm glad I can do anything to help :D
-Peace! <3
Sure man, i just cant stand that dude and i wouldnt trust him a single bit. Its not my decision tho, so keep it up ;)
its a great idea but he might not do it since he would rage quit in 10 seconds because he has no experience, so it wouldnt make a good video for youtube. (i dont think). but if it works that sure is some great exposure

Yes, he doesn't know how to strafe and bhop. I doubt that if he can even finish goldbhop...:/
As being a follower of Pewdiepie since late 2011 (he had 200,000 subs) I can say that this is .... a decent idea.
Yes, he can help with the popularity of the game, but that's almost IT. "Showing what the game is capable of" will fail miserable.
Stop it with "he can't even finish X map" ... that's not the point. He will probably just try the courses, the "mods", the challenges, thing that'll be enough as a presentation coming from a guy like him.
FragGyver : This isn't a matter of whether somebody likes it or not. It's not the best idea, but it's one of our best shot. Why can't we promote this ? I'm all in for it !!
You guys might already noticed, but I want to point it out. There is one thing that I think you should consider is the video's progress while he is promoting KZMOD. He needs to have certain amount of skill in order to make smooth progress in the video. If he isn't managed to finish the map or gets stuck on one place for too long, people probably get bored and he might just skip that part or the map. Also, I think it is important to let him show people how to play the game correctly, so people know what does it look like when they play the game. So, the problem is how to make sure he is showing the fun and actual part of KZMOD(Maybe he should train a little bit before start recording or go play another mod?). I don't disagree with this idea. It is just something to concern about...
Well thats the point of having alll you guys write him asking him to contact me. IF he does, i'd like to to talk to him about the game and find a way where he can be himself, but not denote the game in doing so. Even if he does, it is not a fail for us because someonje watching will like what they see and try it out.
even off the other thread where a fewe guys came inot the tutorial map lobby only......and painted a mans favorite thing all over and just plain had fun with the paint tool.....got us a bunch of new players already checking out the game and thanks to guys like daza being there.....they got to learn how to play it right :D
You should come in on the server with him SF and explain/advice different shit so he doesn't get lost and run out of interest immediately. Also, make sure you start your "kzmod run" with something soft and what anyone would be interested in.. some fun features, forget about original kz for the start. Show the paint tool first, then some cool looking map (maybe the football court), then raceway on kz_mix_journeys. Also, you should probably carry some good player with you to show some good runs, how the professional kzmod look like, when he gets bored.
I'm not a youtuber, can't advice anyone but the point is the game to be seen, as long as the video embraces vast public it's all good.
The only major problem if this exposure pays off and a bunch of new players come and really like it.......
we have 1 server that, when full, has packet loss problems and makes everything unplayable.
It would require a solution to the tune of:
everyone gets their steam ports forwarded and opens lan games to the internet and let people join...only problem is that valve ruined the ease of this and they wont know to get the ip and connect with "connect ip".
meh
not gonna read the entire thread BUT i utteryly HATE pewdiepie and ALL his hard fanboys and girls and i would gladly skip having them in my presence
I also dislike what this guy does, but if he can bring some light onto KZMod, why not :-)
I had a similar idea a while back to generally make KZ more active by telling SeaNanners about this mod, and give XJ/KZ some more publicity and a wider audience since he has played and made a lot of videos of HL mods like The Hidden, Prop Hunt and he actually did a few deathrun videos, but not too many like the others. He generally plays a lot of Garry's Mod, so he might not be a total stranger with how the engine and physics work - although it's source and not half-life.
PewDiePie is way too immature, and the extra audience he has over SeaNanners is not, in my opinion, worth the risk. I imagine he would make a short video where he points out potential bugs, non-sense like how the graphics looks, why it's an ice pick as knife instead of a banana, etc.
Overall, SeaNanners would be the safer bet here. You could also try out some of the people he plays with like GassyMexican, GoldGloveTV, EatMyDiction, Hutch, etc. All of them have a fairly large fanbase.
Completly agree with that Camel. Pewdie is a clown (and i dont mean that as an insult), would be way better to have someone present the game, that actually cares about showing gameplay.
First of all you forgot to mention that Pew plays mostly HORROR games, not "standart" games, Outlast was a truly success thanks to him, also Dark Souls and much more, thanks to him, those games were top1 of the year and bla bla bla, nevertheless, I disagree, a guy like him can't play such game, is like dressing a man with women clothes... It's stupid, funny, but stupid, I really like Pew, he makes the videos NOT boring and also pretty good to watch but styles are styles and I don't think he would do that much, search other good youtubers imo. The idea was ok if not pretty good.
Well guys, then my soulfatherly advice would be to get up, open your youtubes or email acounts, and invite ALL of them that would make sense contacting, to a gameplay session in KZmod's 1 little server.
KZmod was made by people who make things happen. The way to start up a great community for KZmod, is being exactly that. Get an idea.....go for it. That is exactly what I did when I started this whole KZmod thing. Nikita set an example here that many of you COULD very easily follow.
You know the people. You know how easy it is to contact someone. You already know how to turn a good idea into a better one and this thread is a perfect example of that. Now it is time just play your parts in the whole thing and go contact those people. There is no one that will stop you from helping make all of this FRICKIN AWESOME. The worst that can happen is they don't reply but at least you tried, but not trying is a crying shame.
Storm the Front!
