(tokamak) #4

I’ll side with that. Man, I wish I just hibernated this winter.

(evo) #5

does this mean there is going to be a demo or beta

(tokamak) #6

Not in any way whatsoever.

(crazyfoolish) #7

Can somebody please explain to me how this suppression of new information furthers Bethesda’s or splash damage’s cause in any way?

(Hyperplutonium) #8

I have Paul’s Signature! :slight_smile:

Why bother?
Why bother posting this and why bother reading them?
It’s just pages of nothing new, we’d only be wasting our time if we read through it all.

So thanks, but no thanks.
Let us know when you have something we might actually want to hear.

(Humate) #10

Why bother?
Because these people are doing their jobs. :slight_smile:

These previews, were never intended for the typical poster on this forum.
The fish here has already taken the bait. They want to see how many more they can catch.

(BrigandSk(A)) #11

Not all interviews are the same, some better than others and few with 1 inch of stuff you might have passed over.

Like the bugs of syringes going through walls to into the hands of wounded teammate, medics being dragged to places where they cant go by light body type teammate while healing them or that if you damage an enemy 90% and a teammate finishes him off that you get 90% of XP. Button remapping for consoles confirmed. Etc

Anyway… if SD devs repeat every same information with a huge smile on their faces showing off huge hype about their new baby… then if you are a true fan you should never get tired of it too

How exactly are the press previews suppression of information?

As I’ve tried to explain on the marketing threads before, you don’t unleash the big guns until just before launch. The most critical time for public awareness is right before launch, and you only get one launch. The “public consciousness” has a very short attention span, unfortunately.

Yes, it sucks for us specifically, as many of us have been following this for years. But we are the faithful core. We’ve waited years, what is two months more?

Exactly! which is why I’m saying, why bother for them to post it here. And why bother for us to read it?

Thank you for agreeing with me!
Even if unintentionally.

(tokamak) #15

That’s it really. We’ve been way too excited, no need to impress us anymore.

(Maca) #16

I’d like to know why does it matter if they do collect all the previews and interviews into one nice package.
You might not want to read them but others do.

(tokamak) #17

I don’t complain about them being collected, I complain about their lack of news. We’ve been sold the same regurgitated **** for months.

(Mad Hatter) #18

Like they said, we’ve already been caught, and I don’t think any of us are going to flop back into the water at this point. These previews were not really meant for us.

I’m just waiting for the proverbial thrown bone.

(tokamak) #19

Still, we’re the ones that start threads on other forums. Give me something new and I’ll revive at least five of them.

(trigg3r) #20

i’ve talked 5 ppl into preordering Brink already and 4 told me they will get it for sure. I bet i can get many more if they show a gameplay video or give new info.
