Depends how you want to do the credits... like in a classic movie where its dark in background and then you see your credits scroll up? In that case, you need to use a black tile, use that as your background, then use "Floating text" and move it towards a direction.

Would "Game - Send message" thingy work?

I would just use Game - Display message for your messages, and also, in the backround, have a second trigger displaying spaces every .X seconds. So the spaces will force the text to move up.

Or you could just do what blizzard does and use transmissions.

Or, even better yet, you could do this:
Trigger:
Trigger
Events
Conditions
Collapse Actions
Set TempPoint = Center of Region <gen>
Floating Text - Create floating text that reads Message at (TempPoint) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 35.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 64.00 towards 90.00 degrees
Wait 1.00 game-time seconds

This will make it move upwards like real credits, just create a region and it should move upward from that time.

I hope this helps!

Please read this cinematic tutorial as well.

Yeah, but those won't work if he has cameras that are moving around.

That's why floating text won't work.
