Anyone know how to get on any of the new Island Epic features ?
It’s always been kind of random for me and I have no idea what gets me on there. I know there’s not really much information on getting islands featured in any way besides through applying for Epic’s picks.
If anyone has any observations or anecdotes on how they end up on the featured page that they’d be willing to share, I’d be eager to connect and share any observations I make along the way too so maybe we can start to map out what’s going on while we’re still in the dark.
1.discover highly favors uefn over creative 1.0 maps.
2.discover hates old maps even if they are freshly updated and uefn converted
3.discover loves freshly published uefn maps BUT- only if you played a decent session with friends immediately after passing content review. If you publish, pass content review and then leave the map to chill overnight before playing it with friends then the map is pretty much doomed or it’ll be difficult to gain steam with it no matter how many times you play it with parties.
4.dont publish until you weed out glitches! if you publish and have a good play session but find a glitch, pushing a fix update is gonna be bad for discovery algo
this is all from just personal experience so cant be for sure for sure just my 2 cents
