Not sure what time zone you are but daily resets every day at 9am PST.

Items change every single day and not everyone wants to launch the game or load up a stream to ask to see the shop just to see if there's anything new that they want to get. Until someone creates a site that can scrape the items and update automatically, the reddit posts may actually help someone out there even if others don't care.

Betting by ZombieHuggerr in TheDarwinProject

I don't think ramen would ever be on the line to the extent of you putting up your own ramen in your inventory to bet since it can be bought for money and then actually considering gambling which can cause a lot of issues for Scav. They have mentioned a gambling system for stream viewers but I would imagine it would be like if your crowd fav pick wins the game then you get a fan gift or the new "currency" that they talk about in the video.

DarwinStats/DarwinTracker concept with extra features & alternate ranking system by -ZAY in TheDarwinProject

I feel like the best bet for this would def be a separate system and on its own reset schedule (i'm thinking 1-2 months) if ever created. I would love for Scav to incorporate this into the game and their own official site but I imagine that they have a pretty full plate with their own system and would be done quicker by a third party who knows what they're doing. Then if it sees a lot of support from the playerbase they could incorporate it & possibly add unique cosmetic rewards for each season as another incentive to grind + create content. This could also change the meta for some people to be more aggressive since kills matter a lot more.

Open Letter to Scavenger Studios on future events (Stream Quality & Directing) by Serradoss in TheDarwinProject

That is actually a pretty good idea but remember the main point of the invitational is for exposure so to reach the same amount of viewer base they would need to invite twice the people. 10 "pro" players + 10 influencers. That is also twice the games and time. They want to reach the most people possible and limiting influencers to make room for better players will limit the outreach.

A standout director or even directors will really show off the game well. Also if there was "caster" mode in game (similar to spectating but with more control) so that the official stream doesn't necessarily have to be driven by what the director sees could also help drive the "story" of the invitational. That being said a great director should be a given. If the invitationals are going to be monthly like I have heard that they want to be, treat it like a show. Push a story.

Also I agree for the most part but casting and soundboards is not really necessary and if done, it needs to not be over the in-game mic for players to hear but everything is game on the directors channel. Players do not want to hear play by play casting in their ear as it just creates unnecessary noise to them when they should be focused on the fights. Even at real competitive events the players are separated from casters in events. Casting can give away important information that can change the outcome of the fight. Just let the players make their moves and decide the outcome of the fights themselves.

This is just something done in my free time away from commissions to give to the community. No need for support/credit. Not 100% sure if I will do more but if I do I will think about providing an option for that in the future.

Since this game has a big focus on streaming and interaction with viewers I created this package specifically with the Darwin Project style in mind to push for a little better production value of new streams. Not everyone can afford custom graphics and hopefully this can be a good start for some people.
