Preview posts

Oxydizer · 03-02-2007, 09:42 PM

Is it ok to make posts about the preview here, until the preview forum is working??

Raidergoo · 03-02-2007, 10:39 PM

If I am not mistaken, the protocol is that you can say whatever you want, wherever you want, but it would be polite to point out issues in the preview forum in addition to give OOTP Dev and SI to fix issues. I think that is what I saw on FOFC.

EDIT

They already have a thread going over at FOFC, so clearly, this is going to be very public.

OK Raidergoo, I don't have anything bad to say, just wanted to make a post about FaceGen....It's allllllll good

Why does that board get so much OOTP chatter? Seems like they know things over there before we even know them here.

Also, where exactly is this thread on their forums? This is the right address, no? http://fof.sportplanet.gamespy.com/forums/

Why? Because anything goes, and Jim Gindin takes a very long time between games.

PotatoPeeler · 03-03-2007, 12:07 AM

I see. I remember a couple of times last year that Duffy and/or Markus posted game info over there before it was even posted here, which I always found weird.

And refuses to put much in the way of fictional or historical capabilities into his game.

Yes, which is why this is very odd.

I'll bite; If he doesn't include capabilities for historical or fictional, what's the alternative?

Modern "as-is" only. R/L startup.

Yeah, I can get in there, and I thought I had a post in there, but now it's gone. Hmmm.

Marc Duffy · 03-03-2007, 04:55 AM

Post it again, I dont see any deletions?

Cooleyvol · 03-03-2007, 07:36 AM

I'm confused as to why a preview forum for this game is on another forum.

Marc Duffy · 03-03-2007, 07:37 AM

I'm confused as to what you are saying. The preview forum is about 3 down from this one.

Cooleyvol · 03-03-2007, 08:31 AM

OK, there's a link above to a thread on the FOFs. That's what I was speaking of.

Dagrims · 03-03-2007, 08:32 AM

Are only people who receive a preview copy able to see the preview forum? I don't see it listed anywhere.

Must be, because I don't see one anywhere.

Yes.

They are allowed to talk about the game on this forum too, though...

Cooleyvol · 03-03-2007, 09:54 AM

Why are the masses not allowed to at least read the previews?

Seems to me you guys would want those who haven't purchased yet to read what those who have the game have to say about it.

I can see not allowing posting as it would lead to questions, but reading them could be a good thing for those who either have not decided if they'll purchase or not or just didn't pre-order.
