Topic: First Strike...

Please, I want to make this clear that I'm not attacking anyone, or trying to bring the 'First Strike Team' Or whoever is in charge down in any way.

But, I'm just curious. How do you expect FS to be popular? You guys are hardly ever releasing news about anything. Now, I don't know where in the world you could post 'news' about this.. except TotalBF2. But, I have hardly heard anything about this game... You all are not releasing stuff in which this game should be releasing. It's a STAR WARS MOD FOR ONE OF THE BEST GAMES EVER CREATED FOR GODS SAKE!

Now, I usualy search into games like this. But I guarentee not everyone does that. So you'll need to make yourself known, not let people find out about you. The game was sopposed to released this month, so says the release date.. But it's not. Now that's ok... You gave us an indefinite release date. Like I said, this game isnt well known. There has been about 3 stories on Total BF2 about this game. You should be releasing info about almost EVERYTHING. (On your main site, maybe not totalbf2) Who has joined the team, what maps you have created or finished.. weapons,.. kits.. etc...

Re: First Strike...

I agree that First Strike could do with some more exposure, but I think too much exposure prior to an initial release could be a bad thing.  If tons of people are waiting and waiting from the very beginning, they might get frustrated and give up, but if we get a release out and THEN start hammering the community with news of future releases...I think that would make an impact.

I know xERO and some of the other guys work hard on getting updates out, but it is hard work because there are lots of members working on lots of things at the same time.  I'm sure xERO will make another update when we have super great amazing stuff that the community to handle.  After all, we wouldn't want to release TOO much at once, heads might start exploding wink

Have faith, the team is working hard.

If you want to notify some BF:2 fan site administrators, I doubt that the FS team would mind the extra publicity. Go right ahead.

Re: First Strike...

funny, i got the exact opposite impression from FS. I think they're the most open team ive ever seen. Their main page has a wealth of good info, they listen to the community an act on what they hear, and they consitently give updates that are on most bf sites. There not even done with first release, word will spread quick when it is.

The pre dev Un-Co:
I agree with Arch Angel, the dev team is extremely responsive and all listen to our input. Also the update are more regular then any other MOD I know of (Roughly one a week, sometimes more). These updates also appear on several other sites (see the links on the right hand side of the home page). How many full games release the amount of content you are asking before a release? The answer none. By giving away too much info on what happens behind the scenes, we'd

Dev Un-Co:
Big update is coming your way soon wink (Before people start speculating its not a trailer or release date)


How many full games, release the amount of content you are asking before a release? The answer none. By giving away too much info on what happens behind the scenes, we would end up being chained to our PC's (We have real lives we are proffesionals). Basically what you ask for is unreasonable and down right greedy. I have wasted enough time on this reply as it is if you know any other site that want updates post them here otherwise THIS THREAD SHOULD BE CLOSED.
