»jabjabjab Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 Lol.. would be funny to see a commerical of Continuum on tv, (though im sure that would cost alot.) Im suggesting going into gamming communities, Maybe stuff like G4, IGN, GameTap, and any other gaming community out there, and advertising ourselves. I've done things like this for our community, but obviously it isn't enough to keep ourselves at a "peak". Honestly, IMO it's how much of a difference we can make to wake up PriitK to see how much value is still left on working on our game, than just throwing random crap out there here and there.
»Lynx Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 The mass advertising thing worked a tad bit, I dont know how many people actually downloaded and played the game, and it was bothering me I couldn't tell. I actually did it in 2 phases, first with the cards, then the pay per click on MySpace. All the advertisements pointed to www.get-continuum.com (since Wondered didn't want me to do any of that on his site!) and I added a tracker to the download links. Heres some of the stats. The MySpace Run: Impressions:368,204 Clicks:168 Ok, so with 100 bucks, thats the stats. No to many clicks, but heres the download stats. This is the MySpace Campaign and the card deal:Plus, MMO top sites, etc etc. ID Clicks Added Web page 1 60 2009/01/24 Mirror 1 2 46 2009/01/24 Mirror 2 4 29 2009/01/24 Mirror 3 5 35 2009/01/24 Mirror 4 6 30 2009/01/24 Mirror 5 7 36 2009/01/24 Linux 8 0 2009/01/24 Root 236 downloads. In a matter of about a month. So, I lost the Get-Continuum.com domain cause my card number got changed, but I would like to do this again sometime this summer, its actually pretty fun for me. I dont mind spending a few hundred bucks on a campaign, I was thinking maybe actually moving it to Facebook aswell with a Advertisement. Thoughts? I have a much larger plan for Facebook, message me in game about it.
L.C. Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 Shit Polix, you're still here. I almost want to DL SS sometimes for nostalgia sake but looking at the list of zones I've pretty much got no interest in anything that's there. Maybe if I could go back in time and play Sub-Icide with my old friends again. You know, back in 99/2000 when this game was the shit. It's always been the people that made this game and well...everyone I knew save for a few people that refuse to go away have pretty much vanished over the years Does anyone have the Subicide files for that matter? I wouldn't mind hosting it. I used to play in Subicide for some time, under some alias I can no longer remember.
