As part of the next general Gmod update I'd like to have something more with the Loading screen going on. The only criteria however is that whatever you suggest cannot be interactive. With the way the loading screen is designed you cannot pass any key clicks to it. So far the sole Idea I have is changable youtube videos where you could pay say 5k cubes and swap to a video of your choice (of which it would then be locked for an hour). Any other ideas?
Why would anyone want to spend 5k cubes to view a video for an hour? Even if it is locked there is no guarantee that people will be on the server, or stay long enough for your video to play. I'd much rather just pull it up on youtube and watch it myself.
A slideshow displaying all the fun on the other BB servers rather th'n the one the user has just decided to join? xP
The idea is to prevent the loading screen from becoming too static and / or boring. At the moment I keep getting suggestions for videos but it's a case giving everyone the chance. A slideshow or suggested servers is a good idea though.
The video doesn't work. If you've already downloaded everything the server has to offer you see about 3 seconds of the video then it stops. An alternative is both images and text lines which players can contribute too.
5k cubes is WAY too much, maybe bring the price down. Back on deathrun it was far more difficult to obtain cubes, amassing 5k cubes was a job and spending them on a video isn't worth it.

You should have like a screen showing all the servers and the players on it etccccc will be good when rp is eventually out
