Do you think it might be worthwhile supporting smaller streams and not just the 4000-viewer one?

[keeposaurus_REKT]

i don't get why WG always promotes QB. he's such a big streamer, he has enough viewers.... he doesn't need any advertising! stop being lazy and make your own videos or at least promote other streamers except Quickybaby. he really doesn't need that ffs.

[Deldrin]

Guys, it's obvious why WG is promoting him. He never says a bad word about their decisions.

Not a big suprise why he wont, because he makes living from it, but still in this case WG should look into mirror and maybe promote someone else or even a group of streamers.

Thank you again QuickBaby for changing maps for us.

[Cobra6]

Well, at least the video is informative unlike most WG promotional materials ;)

 

Shame however that all maps are becoming World of Corridors™ rather than actual diversity. Almost all long range spotting/sniping locations are removed and everything is centred around holding narrow corridors. This of course is great for brawlers but not so much for everyone else.

Yes, he words it wisely and prompts for comments in particular areas if you notice.  The only bad comments i've seen him make is around the WTF-E100 where he says he feels bad driving it, but even then he doesn't directly say its wrong.

He has said on multiple occasions WTF E100 should be removed from the game completely.

 

The reason why WG promotes QB is because he is very entertaining, yet is easily understandable. He doesn't swear and drop f-bombs all the time, like many streamers... seriously, those are things that matter to WG. And also because he streams at a very high quality.

People are just jelly that QB makes money. ^_^

 

Edit. On a more serious note, while I know there are streamers that are better players and more entertaining for good players, QB is by far the best streamer for new players. He is always explaining why he is doing something and he does it in English. And no, I don't follow his stream.

The reason this video from Quickybaby was chosen was because 

 

a) He's the only one of our current contributors who has created content specific for 9.2

b) The video gives a lot of details about the current map changes which unless someone has been on the test server, they won't know about.

c) Whilst official videos are preferred by some players, we have a wealth of player created content that we want to promote

d) We would love to feature other players however if they are not producing videos and for example only doing a livestream, that's not content that can used for an article like this.

 

If you don't like Quickybaby as a streamer, please gentlemen get over it. You've made your point.  It's the same people again I see quick to come in and troll and you're starting to sound like a broken record and someone with a vendetta.

 

An alternative video guide for the map changes can be found here - http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/410648-all-92-map-changes-in-7-minutes/  the main reason that this video didn't feature is because last month players complained about the previous video being put on out portal much later after the video was released... 

 

If any player reading this is planning on creating content specific to future updates and would like to share that content with a wider audience, please e-mail your details to worldoftanks_en@wargaming.net

 

We will require the following details:

 

Youtube channel name

Your in-game name

Details about what the video includes

 

Please note that to feature on our portal your video needs to be of good quality and have relevant and helpful info. The intention of video spotlights like this is to help the community know about upcoming features so the quality need to be of high standard and easy to understand.

Yes I do, however for this article we were specifically looking for content relevant to update 9.2  It's the information in the video that's more the focus here.

The only reason I'm posting my comment on a QB video is because there is nothing else that is promoted. Why don't you promote some other content creators who are perhaps not as well known? (you could argue people know TheRiisingSun already)

 

And I'm not just talking about Youtube content either. The guy who runs Wotlabs has already started his own sponsorship program. I'd love to see something like this from you guys as well. :P

We're absolutely up for adding new contributors - I just added two for our Hungarian players a few days ago. We're especially interested in those that show great promise but perhaps haven't had much exposure yet. We've got a thread here where people can submit their suggestions.

I like quickybaby streams alot. He has good behavior and helps  people who are not skilled players. 

I learned alot about this map review and cant  understand why people come whine here.

To echo what Brynd is saying we plan to promote a lot more players and their content in the very near future and also add a lot more players as contributors.  Sadly right now our team which should be 5 people is only 2 due to promotions and vacations.

Cool. Sorry for making it sound like a QB diss. I have my opinions but my posts here weren't about those.

 

Also stream some more Ectar!

I don't believe it's about people not liking Quickbaby, rather that from time to time it would be nice to give someone who is not yet so well known with so many subscribers a chance to get more viewers

 

 

[Infektid]

Well i guess that if QB is now a contributor, a E50M buff is expected. 

 

 

On a more serious note, i like QB videos, this one was ok. I dislike the stream (the channel moderators are [edited]....)
