It is a joint marketing event with Marvel at their SDCC booth. It is something worth marketing to the vast majority of players that aren't supremely jaded. Anyone who thinks the only big or important marketing announcements either involve them getting rewards or them getting to participate in something aren't really worth trying to please with marketing announcements.
Besides just being a fun event that involves the community, if not literally every single member of it, the event gives me an idea of how Marvel views MCOC as a product in their licensed gaming portfolio, and indirectly gives me an idea of how successful a product Marvel thinks MCOC is. Not only continuing events like this, but scaling them up says something to me that is interesting, so I think the announcement and the event itself is noteworthy even if I'm not actually going to be participating in the actual competition. I think it is good for the game I play that MCOC is continuing to get this kind of exposure and attention from the company holding the strings to it all.
Kabam shouldn't be surprised that the response to this is less than enthusiastic. They never showed why we should care about this. Maybe if the winner got to spin out a crystal of their choosing and everyone gets what comes out. I'm interested in that action.
I think most of those youtubers viewers won't want to watch content they'll never ever get to play through as opposed to a new champ review or tutorial. The only scenario where I picture myself watching would be if this uses a new practice realm or something.
It is of course also going to be disappointing to a very small number of players, but I doubt that number is significant either. If players thought like that in general, no game would organize events like this. No game would do any community coordination and reach out with members of the community if most players were uninterested in anything that didn't directly involve them. For that matter, there wouldn't be any visible members of the player community in the first place, because no one would give them a second glance.
I got excited when I read it thinking that you could sign up to compete or at least be chosen to compete. Your lame kabam and so is this tournament.
If so, this is a big deviation from all the public statements that Kabam has made stating that content creators don’t get any sort of special treatment from Kabam. If them being selected to compete for exclusive rewards isent special treatment, I don’t know what is. Can we assume you will be changing your messaging about the content creator program going forward?
This “tournament” is a joke.
I'm not the slightest bit triggered. I don't take it home with me at all. They did have a big announcement. It's the Tournament. Something they've never done before. That's big. Are we all doing it? No. Are we getting something from it? No. Is it big? Yes.
What's comical to me is the moment they mention big announcement, most peoples' minds tend to go to any place that gives personal benefit. People have their own reactions. Can't really argue with that. What I can say is it's not disappointing in any way. They said they had a big announcement. That's about as open as it gets. Not something game-changing that will come to us all. Mind you, the Champ they're announcing may.
If you're implying I'm just contradicting people, that can't be farther from the truth. Believe it or not, this is exactly how I feel.
Watch it because u enjoy McOc and u actually have fun watching gameplay.
Some people love Sports. They watch for hours and hours. They root for their Teams, buy their merch, place bets with their friends, talk about it for days and days. Personally, I'm not into Sports. I get it, though. People love the game. They watch other people play for hours and hours, when they never win a thing. They don't get the Cup. They don't get drafted. They don't play the game. Yet they watch it.
If you're asking why you should, no one can answer that. You're either a Sports Fan, or you're not. Some people love to watch and cheer others on.
I would fire anyone with that pitch in a heartbeat.
