Discord is About to get a lot Better, Here’s Why
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 тра 2024
- Discord's potential is now unlocked... because Discord is allowing developers to make their own user bots and activities.
Now as a person with absolutely no will to live, I mean with no coding experience, this doesn't seem like a big deal to me. And boom baby, that's why I did some light reading and extracted the important information that affects us chronically online Discord users.
Imagine a world where you could have actually fun games for Discord activities. Imagine a world where you could get a Discord bot to type out responses to questions you get asked every day that slowly chip away your mental sanity. Imagine a world where Discord gives you advertisements.
Well stop imagining goober, that's what Discord is going to be.

"No one would ever ban discord, it's just a chatting app" wish school's had the same energy
Fr
Same
School doesn't like it when you have friends
Im sure i was the reason for getting discord banned at my school, i used for a year and the next school year my sister told me it got banned
My little sister had discord banned at her middle school because she was caught using discord on the school computers and got in major trouble because they had to pay to get the IT guy to come out and specifically ban discord.

very accurate
Why do I feel like these custom activities will end up like the whole game store thing they had several years ago? Getting some serious deja vu here
I missed the boat on that whole deal, tell me. If someone did buy a game do they still have access to it?
yep
@@nothing4mepls973 yeah i have one still
Right? I already don't know a single person that ever uses the activities, and yeah, sure, they suck, but also like... Steam exists and it's really easy to just get into it there. I can see from an indie dev perspective why getting onto discord for advertising would be useful, but I don't understand from the average consumer perspective why someone would choose to buy a game on discord instead of steam like is probably an ingrained habit already. (Competition is good, but I *highly* doubt that the average gamer is going to say "Yeah, I just don't want steam to have a monopoly, so I'll go buy this game on the untested discord feature instead of steam which has existed for years with no signs of stopping.)
@@alestrius My friends and I all play activities all the time and I constantly see activities going in the servers I am in so I think that's just a thing with your specific circle tbh. Discord wouldn't keep working on activities if they weren't popular.
4:05 "Discord wont be banned by schools."
Me: it is already banned by schools.
It is apparently a security threat blocked to prevent an attack on my browser.
your school bro not every other one
@@LNP618 Everybody i've asked has discord blocked at their school
@@LNP618 discord IS blocked for all nyc schools
@@LNP618 their school AND every other one
Trust me, there's good reason for it, but writing out said reason in public is... tasteless to say the least, so they just say that instead I believe.
If you didn't know, discord activities are just embeeded WEB games, so nothing that is not web-based would be portable
The visual novel my community made was just a webapp until we moved to Unity. Even now you can hook up a Unity game to work with it so; yeah this will be interesting to see.
Does that mean if I publish a game on Newgrounds or Scratch for example, I could embed them as custom discord activities?
@@drewo.127Newgrounds maybe, Scratch no. The thing about activities is that you’re expected to have Discord account integration and offer a seamless multiplayer experience
doom in discord is gonna go crazy

4:09 ”no one is gonna ban discord”
My school banned discord so i gotta use twitter to dm my friends
Why don't use use a real program like Signal? or even just sending an SMS?
Set up a VPN to your house lol
@@MsHojat how tf am i supposed to send an sms on a chromebook, and do you think twitter mutuals just give out their phone number to everyone or something
@@ZaHandle how would that change anything. Oh yes the site restrictions built into the computer can be bypasses using a vpn. How am i even supposed to install a vpn on it, the play store is disabled, the linux terminal is disabled.
@@SASTSimon If it’s just on the device, just use another device without school spyware on it
"Better"? The way activities work is way too simple and doesn't need any type of authentication from the user. It's litearally a webpage () you load and Discord displays it WITHOUT SHOWING THE URL. This means new scams are going to be popping up having "verification bots" that ask you to start an activity to fill a captcha but instead display a fake discord login page because you won't be able to see the URL you're actually looking at. Good job, Discord!
thank you for having a brain
discord going the "make shit for us so we don't have to" arc pretty damn hard lately... I feel like I'm back in 2009 wtf
Did you miss the money part?
This is great news for both of the people using discord activities
Thousands of people use them lol what are you saying? I was just in an event last night playing the gartic phone activity that had 20+ people show up. I constantly see activities going in the servers I'm in. As better activities get added theyll be used even more.
My thoughts exactly I'm not trying to play minigames this isn't 2002. Some privacy/security features would be nice but it's Discord we're talking about here.
@@kivtazI guess if discord is your gaming system or you’re just that “online”
@@killfalseprophetsno bc QOL is the opposite of what they want, lets add more clutter bullshit instead that’s cool.
There’s also a poll function that was added by discord for a few servers, actually I think some of the servers turned off the perms to use it but now I could only see it in one of my servers
"Discord is about to get a lot better"
*proceeds to talk about things that I absolutely don't need in a messenger/voice chat application*
I just need them to finally fix these crazy chronic bugs that have been running rampant for so long
As a programmer, I find this very exciting. I've been looking forward to something like this for quite awhile
As another programmer I am also very excited I program JavaScript and html (not that html will be on here idk)
@@cytroyhtml isnt a Programming language so unless discord uses hyper text to stylise things I don’t see them using it
Can you share ice cream please 🥺

5:35 dont worry your voice is amazing its one of the main reasons i watch you :D
5:35 whaat? Dude your voice sounds really good what are you talking about. I'd put you in a top 10 tier list for best voices.
About 2 days ago a new feature entered a server of my. A Discord integrated polls.
I love it :D it looks clean, shows every relevant information but so discretely that you only notice it if you want to..
these custom activites are gonna be crazy, imagine someone making a recreation of garry's mod for discord activites, it would be so funny.
As an Experienced Game, Web, discord bot, and Software developer this is awesome!
Imagine pirating games on discord
I clicked on the video because I thought the title was discord got a lot balder
Discord Hair Loss Update!
I love you too, NTTS.
I love you my glorious king NTTS. I have constant fantasy's about us having "fun" together.
ayo 🤨
Nice
ChatGPT told me this is unhealthy
@@NoTextToSpeech it probably is
Oh. Yep. As I thought, NTTS is not a fan of the creepy sexual comments he gets sent on his videos.
ntts never fails to make me explode everytime he uploads
In happiness, right?
@@NawleyRoblox PROTECT THIS GUY ABOVE ME AT ALL COSTS, KEEP HIM INNOCENT
Physically like a bomb
Discord already tried the "we want to compete with Steam" marketplace thing, didn't work out.
If anything, this custom Activities stuff will be competing with things like Gartic Phone. Not Steam tho. I anticipate it be be close to DOA.
You know what would really make discord better? Not crashing, not glitching out when input device changes, not randomly degrading audio quality and not instantly hiding someones stream when their discord inevitably crashes again.
And so much much more lol. When I clicked on this video I was hoping to hear "discord is gonna get a whole lot better: because they're FINALLY investing some of that wad of cash they get from nitro into their bug fixing team!"
Your vids might be 8 mins or more or less for me they are hours of fun smart content that feeds anybodys brain with fun cool stuff cool things to know about discord and life i always feel fun watching those vids of yours i hope you stay like thia forever and we will like gaming content or streaming just chilling but dont be like the others read everyones message in chat you are one of the bests
"Director of micro transactions" was actually so funny
Imagine if its gonna be an April Fools joke 💀
@@Deadpool-mk7soWhat is your deal my guy, you're on most comments .-.'
@@smalldummy804that is a bot

they did app pitches last year too so i doubt that
The April fool's joke would be if they said they plan to fix their bugs
CoolMath Games was the GOAT in school, idk where it went but the Armor Games splash screen will definitely be a memory of mine forever.
I just want discord to have their mobile version have a customizable internal and external audio settings like in pc
They def got better viewership on their youtube channel
the outro is insane🔥
3:15 hmmm, isn't that date suspicious?
Real
Nice!
Now we wait until they revert the UI on android/ios, that's gonna blow everyones mind.
*3:45** hello fellow Flash game enjoyer.* 👋
3:50 Cool math games!!!???, my 10 year old brain just screamed!!
NTTS being nice to discord is a once in a lifetime experience lmao
Thanks, NTTS, I love you too. ♡
I'll go back to enjoying the video with everyone else now.
In all seriousness, i appreciate the way NTTS says that. it's just nice to hear, even if it's from someone i dont know at all, lol.
i dont have some weird parasocial relationship.
4:08 my school network banned discord

Hell yeah! CoolMathGames was the shit!
it's nearly impossible to get your friends to play terraria
Factual
my friends are cool and actually play terraria
I can for at least 3 hours. And then they play without me when I don't play woth them for one day
true
i tried to make myself play terraria but no.
Thanks for the info buddy
As a developer, this is really cool!
i feel like 2 companies suddenly started listening to their community at the exact same time, and both are known to do the exact opposite. Discord and Roblox.
"nobodys gonna ban discord its a chatting platform" buddy every k-12 school district in the country bans it. It's the "chat for gamers" not the "chat for students". You severely overestimate the average school district's trust in anyone using their networks.
I think having a visual representation of those famous text rpg bots would be sick
amazing video! keep it up!
Bruh
Finally a Big Company that cares a bit about their developers
Your title is grammatically incorrect. I literally can't fathom it
Cope
I suggested this feature (custom activity) to discord last yr in an activities suggestion/feedback forum and I'd like to think they listened to me... BUT THEY DIDN'T PROBABLY :(
the custom activities feature suspiciously sounds like the discord games store from years ago
STOP PAYING FOR NITRO!! NOW!!!!
??
No u
Got em
I think I didn't like my comment
Tim Sweeney should've also gone there, but in that day there will be the cardinal for Epic Games vs Apple thingy. So maybe Fortnite quests will exist, not like there wasn't an official bot last year with Fortnite quests
imagine if they raised the groupchat member limit
i liked my own comment
Edit: this was a test to see if this crap actually works
no one cares

the user apps feature is the best thing they have added in a while
loved hearing "and you probably aren't either" while playing this in the background of me coding my game 😭
the only discord news channel I watch ❤️
I don’t even use discord anymore but I love wacthing your videos😭
"you probably aren't either"
Didn't know I'd get offended within the first 10 seconds lmao
Thanks for your video, NTTS

Him: no one's gonna ban discord it's just a chatting platform
My school: challenge accepted
"when always a new discord feature shows up, there will be always someone trying to use it to scam someone"

as a dev this update makes me very excited
Can't wait to make a visual novel on discord
HOLY SHIT. As a dev, this is such a good update.
You just made me remember that I had frequent dreams of eating ice cream recently.
I just gotta say, as a student right now, cool math games is far from dead. Almost everyone at my school (at least the guys) plays cool math games. Only difference is now they always have the computer.
Can you share about your browser extensions? I like those tab ones
your mouse cursor looks different than the normal windows one, are you using posys cursor?
"And no one's gonna ban discord because it's just a chatting platform!"
my high school did shortly before I graduated, their network would not let any traffic related to discord go through so it would just infinitely load lmao (they also blocked VPNs and had mobile data blocked in the building, also blocked Facebook messenger so it was extremely hard to get a hold of my parents when I needed to)
This sounds cool. Unfortunately, I use an old version of Discord because I hate the "new" UI
i bet the security on those app will be top notch, and nobody will steal any personal information at all with a simple hidden app
crazy timing ngl i didnt even finish watching
Finally, TOS complying plugins
I think you should make these three videos:
How to make a simple Activity -> No joke I know how to code but the discord activity thing whole through isn't good and just didn't work
How to store data with an activity
Finally the coolest and best one how to make multiplayer discord activities (This one would be really hard but cool if you pulled it off)
First quest i saw was one for the game 'The Finals'
it's cosmetics
Who's editing your videos and making their thumbnails?
Assuming that's the AHK code that you use, it doesn't look like it's written poorly at all. Although I would tend to think that a lot of it was just copy-pasted so maybe the stuff that was shown wasn't a part that contained much of your unique code.
While it is nice that the ban info can be now shown (and possibly appealed) by logging in to the account on Discord, however ultimately it is useless if your Discord account gets hacked because 99% of the time you would have your login credentials completely replaced making it impossible to login anyway.
And it kind of sucks when it comes to Discord support ticket system, I see their discord_support account on Twitter saying that they're experiencing high load right now but what's strange is that me and my friend who also got his account stolen sent an Account Hacking ticket around the same to each other and my friend got his account recovered within just a few hours while I'm here sitting a 3rd day now without any response from the Discord Team & Safety staff. Very annoying.
That man is a true hero of the internet.
Cool math games were THE BEST, I loved that blacksmith one, and the pizzeria one, they were the best
"The submissions are open on April 1st."
Huh... thats nice, i wonder what will happen on a totally normal day like that...
Valefisk really gotta get on that discord game market
