Hey Guys,
Im sure the Team of Xero is doin big efforts behind the scenes to give us new event options and prepare everything for future content. Id like to kinda talk with you guys, the community, to brainstorm how we can reach potential players for the future. Ofc sometimes u talk with friends and maybe here and there xero gets a new Player from time to time, but im talkin about finding a way to actually reach bigger crowds. If the amount of new Players is not big enough, they just get stomped by experienced players, just to de-install after 25mins..
What possibilities are there to reach people, besides advertising in a classic way over Ads?
Maybe some Posts in the right corners of the Internet, more support for the Streamers of S4 Xero, whatever ideas u have, maybe we find a way to get some life in this game again.
It just makes me sad to see the game dying more from day to day.. So maybe we find a way as a community..?
The biggest thing would be proper content creation, constant flow of shorts and stuff.
Now the caveat is that it would need to be done properly, treated as if it is a large game, proper help for new people, proper videos about it, edited shorts etc. Mute gameplay or low effort commentary is essentially going in the void.
I'm pretty sure though that the ROI of that effort will be really really low initially, so there could be a possibility of rewarding content creators with something, to at least give some short term motivation.
Specifcally for edited videos of course.
However it's really hard for new players to start, so even if you get an influx of new people, the game is so demanding and competition for a new player is so high, it's gonna be hard for the to stay.
Streaming isn't really helpful currently because no new people will find the game, the only viewers are active players.
I personally don't see any other way, even traditional ads I doub't would make a big difference. Showing that the game is alive, has a community etc, is what would help.
Even scrolling randomly and finding a short about it, yk.
For the first months if not longer it's basically sisyphus work, with no guaranteed return, but most likely it's the only even slightly realistic option, barring throwing money at it and basically doing a full remaster with full ad campaign etc, but nobody will do that.

Maybe some of the Xero Streaming Guys could help with clips, I myself cant really Videoedit but maybe there is someone talented in the Community?
So flooding yt shorts and Tiktok with short edits is a good way, there are many fuckin bots spammshittin shorts with Ai Slop and Movieparts while inserting No batidao or other Phonk in Loop, maybe we also has someone who is able to pull something off like that?
I know its a bit fishy, but maybe tell some larger streamers about it, those kind of streamers who are not insanely huge and play more niche games, if just one of those jumps on the train, maybe his followers join after him/her and give it a try? Many older and shittier games went viral after the right Streamers made them popular, i mean we could try it no?
Any more suggestions Guys?
