20 days where are the videos?

Fansadox · #1 03-03-2011, 06:10 PM

Like the title says where are the gameplay videos? I really love the Il2 series and i have all of em and i bet Cliffs of dover and future addons will be just as good or even better.

But when it comes to releasing info, proper gameplay videos etc im a very sad. I remember a few weeks ago we were told we were getting tons of videos and awsomeness so where is it then?

And i mean proper gameplay videos with sound, showing damage, menus, options etc etc

Thank you in advance

I bet we will get a few videos tomorrow for the update... If not Im sure there is a good reason to not release any. At least I hope there is a good reason

Every week, these past couple weeks, I hope to see new videos.
Hopefully tomorrow.

Feels like the 'quiet before the storm'....

I don't understand why there's not much videos yet. Even work in progress/beta videos would be better than nothing or the 3rd person videos we've seen. Show me something with fraps!

I think it would do a lot to boost the pre-order amount for the game. Hell, the two leaked vids that hit the net a few weeks ago hyped me up enough to pre-order from ubi. something i never thought that i would do. I was originally going to wait for the steam release. I'm sure some official beta gameplay videos would do wonders for CoD's presales.

I honestly think it has to do with the leak that happened a while ago. I don't necessarily think it's a form of punishment, but was rather just discouraging to Oleg and team. I'm sure most of us have seen the leaked video, which takes all the excitement out of showing us videos for Oleg. I can only imagine how frustrated he was when that happened.

So what your saying is because of the leak they are going to punish themselves by not posting any 'in game' video that would really help sell the game. The leaked video has been the best bit of marketing to date, they should give the guy a job.

There's only one real reason to post videos and that is to advertise and sell the game.
People who know nothing of this sim will want to see something,blimey the amount of adverts on TV showing games [some ingame footage ,some not ] Advertising these types of product are increasing.
People will self seed the product via web hosting sites ,facebook,you tube etc so advertising will be painless for them so why are they holding back.
Tree was correct,the leaked video was the best hype on here for along time,i don't agree with the way it was done it should have been done officially and had that happened the leak wouldn't have been so interesting.
Ironically by keeping things so hidden they opened themselves up.
Here's hoping for something tomorrow in the update.
