Basically I need more people to sign up to VIP. Takeup is probably half what I was hoping for. Still OK but I need to improve it. So...

 

Question to VIPs - what do you think I should be bigging up, to get people to go VIP?

 

Question to non-VIPs - is there anything that I could do to convince you to buy? If the answer is no, that's cool, please say so in the poll above. If you are tempted though, what could sway you? Speak freely basically.

 

Thanks for all your input - much appreciated :notworthy:

I am a VIP, because I am a firm believer in supporting things that give me enjoyment. I like this game a lot and I can tell that a lot of hard work goes into it and expecting that to be done for free is selfish imo.

 

The same people who play these games for free are usually the ones you find complaining that things are not the way they like as well...lol

 

Anyways, i think the game is a lot of fun and has the potential to be HUGE some day and the only way that can happen is if we support the guys who are putting their time into making this thing great.

 

I am very new to the game so unfortunately I do not have enough knowledge to recommend what else I would like as a VIP, but I will continue to support the game.

Thanks for the input guys. Everyone who's voted is a VIP so I guess the more active people are already VIPs. Anyway, I've come up with a cunning plan. I'm going to put gross pictures up as adverts, like this one :D

That's brilliant! You could also make a portion of the forum like a VIP's only place, you know, just to add some mystery and intrigue. People are somewhat naturally voyeuristic and go mad when they can't see what's behind the curtain.

one thing that might help and I dont know if its possible but live play by play of the fights......This might get some people aboard.....we should limit the number of organizations though.....

I am VIP and I like it just the way it is. I don't know if adding more fighters is the way to go. I am allowed 10 and have only made 8 so far. I don't know if I could handle more.

 

One thing you might want to try is give new users 2 weeks of using the VIP features (but only 3 fighters) so they know what they are missing by not signing up.

i am a VIP member. i would like to see the option to have more than 10 fighters. to me, building your fighters is the most fun part of the game. also, i think VIPs with companies should get the extra fighters too, not just VIP members without a company. i've seen it discussed as a possible future option if you don't own a company, but i think it should be for all VIPs.

i think 10 fighter is perfect. not too less, not too much. if one user would get like 15 fighters ... 3-4 friends together could run a promotion without any other users involved which would borderline suck. a couple guys could abuse the system beyond holyness.

 

i like VIP as it is. i just look forward to all the other things that are planned, mainly ways to spend money for the fighters (hotels, housing, wellness, booze, hookers etc. ;)).

You could do that right now, just with 4-5 friends instead of 3-4.

 

I'd definately make more fighters, given the option.

This seems true. I'm not sure people would pay just for that, but it would probably add to the appeal.

 

 

 

I think the losing your VIP thing might still be keeping people away. Even though it's not even an issue for most people. (Is that still in existence, by the way, or was something else decided?)

something like a VIP lounge does sound like a good idea. i doubt that'll change any minds or anything...but it'll add a bit more incentive, heh. i think the main thing would be more fighters.

The big selling point of VIP is the ability to run a company.

 

Supplement companies - overbuilt. At most MMATycoon can support a handfull of successful supplement companies although an eventual monopoly is most likely as one company becomes known as the most-trusted high-quality source.

Clothing companies - if you aren't an artist, don't bother. Even the great ones like Bushido and Boondock aren't making hardly any money, much less your average-joe clothing company.

Gyms - overbuilt everywhere. Gym faliure seems likely in many cities.

Fight Orgs - currently I see enough room for about 3 new ones.

 

The lure for VIPs is running a company. The door for new companies is largely closed. If there where a greater variety of companies I think you would sell more VIPs.

 

Good news for you is that the door is wide-open. It's already clear fighters will quickly be earning way more money than MMATycoon has a way for them to spend it. Look to other similar "sim" games for how they have player-characters spend their "money". You can then model additional companies off of that.

Of course, you could also change your advertising to focus strongly on the 10-fighters and Fight Assistaint aspect. In fact, I couldn't imagine playing this game without the Fighter Assistaint thing. I'll do a testamonial for you!

 

Figure out what the chief selling point of a VIP is, and position your advertising around that one selling point.

The losing of VIP almost turned me away i was like 40/60 on it

u should make a privete fourm for VIP people this will make the appeal better and most people will buy VIP more often
