Giving back : promoting Arma3 on social media

[jerryhopper]

I have been using the social media channels ( facebook, twitter, google+ etc ) for a while and what catches my attention is that there is very few talk about Arma3 on these channels. i must admit, the arma3 facebookpage has quite some interactions from the community when there is news, but generally when you search for arma3 not much comes up.

Bohemia Interactive has been working for over 10 years on your favorite game, aint it time to do something back?
We all know that the PR for the armedassault series wasnt that strong, and with today's socialmedia, tools and gadgets it shouldnt be hard to get #arma3 more covered on the internet. untill Arma3 is released, we are the footsoldiers that can make the ArmA brand stronger than ever.

Therefore : Enlist in the #A3SA - ArmA3 Social Army

Your task :

Are you using any social platform? keep the following in mind.

- Promote/spam your social media channels with #arma information, links to articles, mods or videos : everything
- Follow your Brothers in arms, in order to get news around fast, and massively.


Your duty :

1. Always tag your twitter posts with the #arma3 and #a3sa hashtag ( also use it when posting pictures, video's )
2. Use mentions! instead of using 'BIS' use: @bohemiainteract
3. Use the 'like button' or any other social media platform equivalent on all arma3 articles.


How to enlist ?

Simply reply in this thread and fulfill your duty.


More idea's are always welcome...

Spam social media channels?

That's most likely going to drive your friends to the point where they will light themselves on fire as soon as ArmA is mentioned

Don't think spamming is a solution.

What is a solution is people with money to buy nice gaming PC's.

1. Start writing everyone a check for a grand.

2. Make videos that show off tacticool gameplay elements that COD/BF could only wish of having. Show awesome Halo jumps, coop play similar to RichieSpeeds videos (he's quite popular on Youtube)

3. PVP needs heavy focus and to be interesting enough to convince people to pick up the game, install mods, go through hassle to play it essentially.

You never know.

You never know.

Do you say that knowing something we don't or it's obvious PvP needs more of a focus?

1.He was a PvP focused modder and now he is a BIS dev
2. BIS themselves said they are giving PvP some attention

No one in my social media circle will care about Arma. I will however make some noise about Arma when I have something to actually show (community alpha!).

The best way to advertise Arma is by circulating an intense co-op video that focuses on teamwork, tactics, and most importantly, a shitload of firepower. A slow paced video just isn't going to cut it, the goal is to make the audience say "that game looks fucking awesome!".
My suggestion would be for some guys to get together and make a gameplay video similar to this -



Obviously the video wouldn't be narrated and music is a definite no-no. It needs to be the raw sound of guys communicating with each other and gunfire, LOUD gunfire.
