Buzz Improvement / Followers / Popularity gain


Rambo

Recommended Posts

buzz can be entertaining. I just would prefer there to be some type of AI system related to followers that increases fighter popularity. Like the ability to upvote or like a post. And the more people that like or upvote something, it'll offer a popularity boost and an artificial increase to followers.

AI Buzz System:

( Fighter Hype ) = Likes X followers

(001-100) = 1 x 1

(101-200) = 1 x 2

(201-400) = 1 x 3

(401-599) = 1 x 4
(600-699) = 1 x 5

So based on fighter hype, you'll receive more followers for same # of likes.

You can even go with ( Fighter Hype ) = Likes X followers X Popularity Hidden *

* if it's even a hidden and not just a 1 time boost at start of creation lol.

Based on fighter Popularity hidden it would multiply a percentage to that equation. If you have low popularity hidden that % will be a 1 and they'll be no bonus. Say you have average popularity it'll be a 1.5. High popularity and it'll multiply by 2.

Would almost make the popularity hidden more viable... almost.

The added fighter popularity would be a very basic milestone system based on followers. Just add +10 popularity each time they reach it.

50 followers

100 followers

500 followers

1,000 followers

5,000 followers

10,000 followers

25,000 followers

50,000 followers

100,000

250,000

500,000

1,000,000

2,500,000

5,000,000

10,000,000+

if you somehow miraculously get to 10 mil AI followers, your fighter has a permanent 150 points added to popularity. Personally I think it should be double that, but this just a quick lil rundown.

It'd be a pretty easy formula and I don't think it'd be too difficult to code.

-----------

Keep in mind. This does not impact Fighter HYPE or p4p ranking at all. It just boost fighter POPULARITY. totally harmless.

I'm still trying to figure out how to buzz. Every time I try to buzz nothing posts, is there a buzz guide in the forums? But, I also like the idea.... Followers = Popularity

 

I have noticed that when you try to buzz in game it has a low % of actually working lol but time to time it does or if you do it a few times it finally does post but it's easier to just go to the actual buzz feature which you can find right in the list on your right of the screen where my fighters, fight offers, finances are all listed and buzz is at the bottom but if your wanting to buzz a manager you would put @M followed by the ID# of manager so @M1234 for example and the same goes for if your directing it towards a fighter you would just put @F rather than @M

When a fighter posts a buzz it should help that fighters hype/popularity as well as the topics hype or popularity he may hashtag for example an org or company and events but this would only work if the owner/employee of the company/event being # was to include that hashtag in the companies buzz page just like you do when posting new posts on here (forums).. Example: my company is RAGS OF A RONIN clothing in Tokyo so on my buzz page I could list various hashtags that would be related to my company like #RoaR #RoninRagsTokyo and if I had new product being released I could hashtag those also but then if those hashtags were used by someone your company would get a positive outcome from it...

 

I don't understand why you get the beneficial credits for spin N win from posting on here in the forums since really this is outside the game but with the Buzz feature being more in the game you get nothing from it really besides amusement at times from posts lol

Another thing fighters could receive from making buzz posts could be different outcomes like you get from private jet trips...like maybe your fighter was noticed by a company and was asked to do a photo shoot to be a rep of that company and this could help popularity as well as maybe a payment of x amount of $

This a pretty good idea. Would increase participation on it as well.

 

For sure and I thought for the longest time Buzz was used as a way to build a fighters hype/popularity level since the word buzz directly relates to hype usually lol

I'm all for improvements to buzz, but it shouldn't increase hype. Keep hype/popularity separate. Taking advantage of the system and increasing popularity is harmless, but manipulating fighter hype is no bueno.

I agree but I also think it would not hurt to have a slight increase in hype for certain buzz posts but the whole issue with how to prevent people from manipulating the system is the thing that makes it to risky to have hype be affected

Remove hype from equation and you never have to worry about it.
