When we say "the excitement is gone" ... we really mean that. Right now, I'm waiting for release, but not anticipating.
You will have to do something to increase the sales. Demo is the first wise and logical step. Next is - presentation, with a pre-made video and a man to comment most of the features and concept of the game (talking about PR). Next step - which should have been the very first - become more open to the gamers community. They give you all the respect when they feel they are cared for, and even if not, they still deify you because you might be creating the game of their dreams. So, just imagine how much it hurts to find out after 5 long years of waiting and development that we will not see multiplayer in it ... just imagine. I guess I could go on, but you get the point.
You _don't_ want us to feel the team's exhaustion while we'll be playing it, do you? The game must shine and smile when it comes out and we should be enjoying it. Each such wound you make will not make it that much enjoyable anymore.
Hey... I post too much, I never post so much. I guess I'm hoping the call will be heard. And just to shake the developers ... they know they need this, so just accept it  |
I agree with you.
Demo!
It can be made...
Here's some ideas....
For a demo make a really small area playable on borders of that area make some cliffs so if players want to go to that area they will fall from 2 km and BANG it will be the end of the demo LOL
That would be also hilllarious, you play the demo and then go to that cliff and bajumbadum crash the truck haha.
So basicall no crackers could crack your game and make it full workable.
Even before some companies could find the way to make a restricted demo.
So no releasing a full game that could be cracked of course I don't wish you this. But apriori saying we will not make a demo is very stupid for your wallet.
Small number of people played Kings of the Road. And grrrrr my friend lost my copy of the game.
