trailers at the movies sounds expensive, im sure TV commercials are off the hook $$$

I been playing this game for a long time and i will be playing til the wheels come off, i would just like to hear about what is in place, what is being done to spread the word about this awesome game.


Thats one more.................. For the good guys!

Ive heard that the main problem would be the price. I dont know that they feel that it is feasible to do commercials. I for one would love to see commercials though.

I would like to see anything. It seems to me that advertising here targets existing and former customers instead of looking for new ones.

Set to private on YouTube. Anyway you could set it to public please?

I don't use, care for or intend to visit Facebook or Twitter, thank you very much.

I definitely think we need to hear a little more about this Noble Savage. His outfit and armour and such seems to be rather Black Scorpion, but his head doesn't match up. He also seems quite Wretch, as has already been said, but unless it's due to the short time he spent living off of sewer water and rats, Wretch is light-skinned.

Of course, we may not know his Primal equivelent at all, but I'm going to be digging for these connections until I've been in Praetoria for quite some time.

You could always sign up for a free YouTube account, and then just sign in with it. I was able to watch it then once I signed in with mine.

One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

Thank you for posting a working, non-private link. Shame it wasn't in the first post.

I couldn't view any of the links posted previously even when signed into YouTube. Not that I want to sign into YouTube.

Come red people, if these vids are supposed to be your tasters then make them EASY for people to get to. Not require searches for working version, signing into FB/Twitter/YouTube (which may not be used by your prospective customers).

I can't believe I'm having to give marketing advice to you guys.

Glad someone can get it right.
Thanks

My question: What are we doing to get NEW players INTO the game?

No boxes on the shelves, no ads in magazines, no posters in the windows.
I know, right? They should make a box that has the game and expansion in it, making it easy for prospective new players to see the cool new stuff.

Then they could do some sort of promotion together with a major games retailer where people who preorder the game/expansion box through that retailer get something cool, maybe even small ingame bonuses.

They should at least make a video series that talks about all the cool stuff they have coming up, and post it on some highly-frequented social network website.

I have a YouTube account and I was signed in. Still couldn't see it. Fortunately, Avatea was able to solve the problem and for that I thank her.

I wonder if they have touched on all the areas that will be in GR. I didn't really see any new mission styles/innovations (although there were some comments about tip missions etc). Are these morality missions just going to be like the current arcs we have now? The Midnighter's Club arc has become a nuisance and a hassle. I hope the alignment changes don't get to that state.

All in all there seems to be a lot of cool little stuff to do but if the play style is just like what we have now and it all has a familiar feel...I think the long time players will tire of this very quickly.

I think me might see one or two tweaks to some of the standard mission types.

So, thanks for pointing it out.

The character creator screen is being shown off, so I bet the idea was to show how many options are possible. Which is probably why they went with that shot for the video as opposed to a normal screen sans weapon options. Is that really so hard?

Conversely, they could be playing an AR/Mind blaster, or some random hybrid that only the devs can play. Have you ever seen a Dev in-game? Some of their info boxes are very very long.

Noble Savage looks awesome

Only fitting to have the art lead with an amazing looking charecter for those of you whole missed it, screenie here



Also did i spot new pistols with new fx just after this part? 2:35 onwards looks like laser pistols *prays for unlockables*

I didn't see anything really "new" here, but they finally put some real pictures to what I have been imagining up to now. I have to say they lived up to my imagination in this case, bravo! Not many have been able to do that.

I will agree with Capa Devans and the many others complaining about the lack of advertising though. That is disappointing.

I'm actually wondering if this is the toon he originally played the game with (which means we probably won't see it around much anymore). Nice look though and it would make a good Red Name.

To me it looks like he's got a cybernetic arm and his fist is being held at chest/bicep level directly in line with the rest of the arm, which makes it look like it's missing.

Unlockable laser pistols would be pretty awesome.

Even if it's the character David originally played, that's definitely a custom costume with several pieces not available to players or even currently in the game. My guess is that it might be the Praetorian version of Wretch and David's new in-game signature character.

I'm sorry but, was that a pvp battle taking place outside of a pvp zone at 3:02? or possibly a praetorian pvp zone/new arena map? or was it just an npc killing a player?

everything looks pretty awesome so far, can't wait to see it firsthand!
