@OkezFN@horkypog@ben_braint @SpookyABC123 @BoopNL_@trippernn The ROI isn't there at all lol. They have just decided to give developers their fair share. 40% of fn players play UGC games so yea.
@SeanUEFN @GlimpseCreative @FNCreate Like geerzy, dux has also constantly been trying to do every exploit possible to keep his map relevant. I hope @FNCreate does something
I agree with Fortnite Creators: It's a game genre.
We, Hypixel, originally created many new game genres over the years, such as The Pit (2018) and The Walls (2012), in Minecraft.
I enjoy seeing people use these game genres however they see fit. Over the years, the names have become generic terms to define game genres, like Battle Royale.
I love to see our innovations go beyond Minecraft.
Epic Games promoted The Walls in one of their promos, and I was happy to see it. It takes me back to 2012, when I first came up with the name and genre, living in a small one-bedroom apartment barely making a living. I also believe in my ability to make new and innovative content and name genres in the future; I do not hold on to the past and wish more would do the same.
I think it's great to see @Geerzy succeed with our game genre and name, The Pit. He has done an amazing job remaking it in Fortnite and has had great financial success. He was a Hypixel player, got YouTube rank, and spent hours on The Pit and other games before making his Fortnite version of The Pit, doing his research to improve it. That's great. I'm happy for him.
However, I am disappointed with how this has turned out with his recent actions. I hope he can use this as a turning point, work alongside other content creators, and rebuild relationships because, in the long term, this matters to a business's survival. This is how I built Hypixel from the ground up and made great relationships. I was lucky enough to work alongside the biggest names in the industry over the years and have made business deals that have changed my life's path.
Let me know if I can be of any assistance.
I wish you both great success.
@Geerzy Honestly you make a great point, creators should be protected for their work.
I'm sure you wouldn't mind sharing some of that $10M+ you've made off the the name-likeness of @Hypixel and @Simon_Hypixel's Minecraft The Pit if you feel so strongly about the topic. 🙏
Physics is so satisfying, even if it's just shooting down potted plants.
#UEFN Morning Warmup: mini update day so I decided to keep it simple with adding a scope to Lego weapons.
