Attention Goldeneye Source Developers!!

(1/4) > >>

terps4life90:
I think we all know the main reason why Goldeneye: Source isn't a very active mod. I can sum it up in two words. "Fucking advertise EVERYWHERE." Excuse me 3 words. I mean shit...this doesn't make sense how we finally have what we all have been waiting for but barely anyone plays it!?!?!?!?!?!?! All of us remember goldeneye on the n64 was one of the greatest games ever, Remember when we all thought it was getting a remake for XBLA and how happy everyone in the world was?!?!?! How the fuck does this mod not have a million players and if one of you retorts and says "The graphics are shit" i will find out where you live and punch you repetitively in the face everyday as soon as you wake up until you die! WE all know this game beats basically any game on the market, even in today's world. You guy seriously need to stop asking for the community to help and step your game up. I get that there are legal issues and copyright bullshit but there are ways around it. I applaud each and everyone of you who have made this game possible. You all should be proud of yourselves. Just becuase not a lot of people play this doesn't mean you can half ass your marketing skills. Don't take my criticism to harshly but honestly i don't think it  was any secret. OK RANT OVER.

TriDefiance:
I agree with you that this mod is not as big as it was intended for, but if we advertise, it could cause Activision to find us and then force us to shut down since they have the rights to James Bond games.

terps4life90:
Fuck activision, I wish the developers in Goldeneye Source would advertise directly at activison, and hopefully they would spot it and learn a thing or two on how to make a amazing  james bond game. Far as I am concerned activison is mediocre at best compared to the developers here.

Rick Astley:
as much as i am with you Terps4life90 i agree with TriDefiance, we cant advertise
that much or Activison or MGM could shutdown the mod-its not worth it GES still
has to remain in the shaddows....like Batman

i can try to advertise it at Pimppad (this place in Australia-never mind) but i just dont want GES to die

on a diffrent but related topic- what if all the players are now just playing with bots instead of being online?

major:
How about instead of telling us to do something as vaguely as possible, you give some actual ideas on how you think we can improve things. How do YOU want us to 'advertise'?

Do you want us to go to every game forum/site and spam them up? You want us to spend money and take out advertisements? give us SOME kind of clue here. Fun fact; we've taken out ads. Yep. We've (and when I say we, I'm speaking only from my actions) spent hundreds of dollars on ads(Google, and Facebook) and what has it given us? Maybe a player or two, and as you can tell from the server lists, they're not still playing.

It may seem like we don't care or aren't doing everything we can. However, when you look at our team its the same people who have been here for 5, 6, maybe even 7 years or longer. We have had fire under us and done everything we possibly could. We've been front pages of webs largest sites, been in magazines, featured in countless articles, all done by our work.

So I'm just saying to present us some ideas, and maybe you can help us drive in that direction and become a driving force WITH US. In a day and age where unless Valve picks up your mod, Source modding is dead. The fact we've been around and still have a community to this day has to show some damn hard work has been put in.

Work with us here. We need soldiers, not analysts.
