So recently I have decided to open up a SCPF, I am working on a game where I will be able to get robux from for ads and sponsors but my mail question is how to keep the player base active?
In many popular groups you see like a server full of people but with small groups you won’t expect such thing but is there any way to encourage non group members to stay in the game or join your group since then you’ll be able to grow a community and make the player base bigger like having players on the game all the time.
Make the map fun. Add a raid feature thats fair and isnt game breaking. People these days like to raid SCP groups just for the fun of taking over the facility/installation.
I’m not familiar with SCPs but if you want to grow your games just make them fun and engaging. Players will stay longer and their friends will join, their friends will join, and so on.
Just make sure your game is fun and works completely. And maybe try adding an incentive for inviting players to the group, like a referral code or something.
If your group is still small you could start announcing events (like some SCP breached or a hostage situation idk) so that your group has something entertaining to do. [I’m assuming you have a discord group.] Another thing is that you could designate certain times where everyone joins and spend some time with each other in the facility. This way your group doesn’t “die out” because the players have nothing to do.
In my opinion its good to keep the game fair. Dont make payed jobs like MTF E-11 (1999R$) because if you let people pay for too much and have too high prices, they wont have much fun at all.
There’s no such thing as group game with more than 1K player unless you spammed Advertised them but if you really wanted a group game with that much amount of player, you have to make a game more exploitable, Not hacking but for Class D for example, they always got bored out because they’re inside the Class D area having no escape option for them which is what all SCPF game problem is, Class D got bored out and then the game slowly dying because there’s nothing to do. But you can also fix this by allowing player to join as Researcher but it’s not as effective as Group player Researcher so I can think of one idea and that’s adding something for Class D to do. Not in regular way but in Gameplay way, like Crafting,Escape route that require some tool and teamwork and stuff and you must make it difficult otherwise it will like one of those Jailbreak game, I mean yeah you can buy a gun as Class D but that’s cash grabbing which is something I hate
I understand that concept but I am at current point am aiming to expanding my group and player base so things I am looking to find are things like how much I should put into ads or how I should recruit
