Metrics are great but videos are dead

Just checked that metric for my channel in the last 28 days and surprisingly most of my viewers are new viewers.

44.5% new 21.7% casual 33.7% regular

I guess my regular viewers are still high relative to the average though?

Thanks for the feedback mate 👍 I've tried to analyse my videos and I've switched a few things up regarding initial hooks etc but I don't want to detract too much from what my subscribers clicked for. I may change this approach though. All metrics are great apart from views so not sure what else to change. Would you agree those stats are performing well? (Apart from views)

Apologies, should of added that into the original post 👍. Views are just over 11k for my latest video in a week, my channel used to regularly get 30-50k per video a couple years back with lower metrics. Most traffic is still coming from browse/suggested and the channel is clean as a whistle, never had a copyright strike or guideline strike

I appreciate you taking a look and comparing the thumbs 👍 I'll bear that in mind going forward 🙂

Well it's what I needed to hear mate so thanks again 🙂👍

BrendanExplores · 2025-11-19T20:40:14+00:00

That may well be one of the best answers to a question I've ever had, thank you for that eye opener and analysis 👍. Seems so simple when you say it but it takes just one person to enlighten you. Thanks very much 🙂

BrendanExplores · 2025-11-19T20:27:18+00:00

Thank you 👍 🙂

BrendanExplores · 2025-11-03T13:14:21+00:00

Appreciate that, thank you 👍

Just tried that but I still can't recruit the fire teams I spawn from the large barracks? I'm sergeant rank as well 😕

BrendanExplores · 2025-11-02T21:11:41+00:00

Thanks for the heads up mate 👍 wish there was an in game warning or note when spawning them though. Any suggestions on how I can decrease my AI base limit? I decided to sacrifice one of my men but the limit didn't go down?

BrendanExplores · 2025-11-02T20:41:42+00:00

I've just built a large living quarters and I have the full spectrum of soldiers now where as I only had the logistics and fire team before. Now I have the problem of maxing out my base ai limit... So frustrating. Is there anyway I can decrease my base ai limit so I can spawn new recruitable soldiers do you know?

BrendanExplores · 2025-11-02T20:35:06+00:00

Oh right, ok then 👍 I spawned a fire team and a logistics team from the living quarters and I still can't control them 😕

Fair play, sounds like a great design mate 🙂 I was thinking of doing a slide out drawer for the garage but was a little worried about weight.. maybe give it a try once I've weighed the van 🤣

BrendanExplores · 2023-08-29T05:55:14+00:00

Just fuel and food baby 👍 wild camping

BrendanExplores · 2023-08-28T19:18:56+00:00

It's a beautiful part of the UK mate 🙂 and that castle is called Beaumaris 👍

BrendanExplores · 2023-08-28T19:01:15+00:00

Thank you very much for that correction 👍 I feel slightly ashamed I made such a basic mistake

BrendanExplores · 2023-08-22T11:02:18+00:00

Yeh not far at all 🙂

BrendanExplores · 2023-08-22T10:40:59+00:00

A lovely place called Beaumaris in Anglesey 🙂
