Thread: Kickstarter

    I'm afraid you're preaching to the choir, I think most if not everyone here has already donated.
    If people know any other place to promote the kickstarter (even if it's your own facebook, twitter or YouTube channel) It could help them out.

    A little "kick" to free enterprise. I want the "game" for real passion ... because I did not "PC" use Mac, and it's a bit "vintage" but powerful. I'm going to play at a friend's house. Now waiting for the results.

    Sure we still need to do our best to spread awareness of the project, but you need to remember that we are at 24.5k right now. That's 70% of the goal with a full 23 days left. It's still too early to to start panicking.

    That's really for the absolute minimum though. Ideally it needs to be hitting at least the first couple of stretch goals

    True, but it can hit the stretch goals well after the 30 days have passed, as far as I'm aware. For the kickstarter to get through, it just needs the 35k. Still, we should all try our hardest advertising this project!

    With The Verge just recently posting something about the WO1-browser-thing, it might be a good time to give them a heads up (?)

    On my side I contacted Gamekult via twitter, the second most important French VG website and I asked if they could say a word about this in their weekly show.
    There is a show every saturday during 1h15-1h30 about "eveything during the week about VG" more or less and it's a good one, I like it.
    I don't know if they'll talk about it though...

    They wrote a small article about it 2 days ago. They should still talk about it on their saturday show, it could help a little bit.

    Pledge rewards updated. A new £20 tier is available for a digital PS4 version when it is ready, and the £150 Physical Edition tier is now available again. They've also lowered the price of the top two a little, but no biters yet on those.

    First of all: Hype! we are at 79% of the goal at 27.7k!

    Second: Should I advertise this kickstarter to F-Zero fans as well? It's the same genre as WipEout (ag racing) and the F-Zero fanbase is currently desperate for a new game for the franchise. They were also heart broken after it was announced that there are NO plans for any future F-Zero games. So how about giving it a shot? It can't hurt can it?

    Absolutely! R8 have been asking for people to share the link on any related forums, whether they are Wipeout, F-Zero, anything.

    What about on Youtube? Would leaving a comment on various related videos be acceptable? Because I can see that potentially being annoying... See I REALLY think doing that would help but it might be frowned upon. Thoughts?

    Just £1000 to go to the target, and someone has taken the plunge on the top level pledge!

    I'm confused about the 100k stretch goal.

    "the console (PS4/Xbone) version will be fully representative of the PC version of the game."

    What does this mean exactly? Does this mean that unless this goal is reached the console version will NEVER have all of the content or be released at all? That's what it sounds like...

    They've said that the stretch goals are to allow them to have the resources to meet these deadlines. They will still work on other versions if they are not met, but it is likely to be a very long wait.

    Also, depending on funding, the PC version will either be released with an initial 8 tracks or the full 22 tracks. The statement on the console versions means that it will be the same as whatever condition the PC version is in at the time.

    £500 to go...

    I see. It's truly amazing to see how much passion is being put forth by R8 and DR. Commited to the bitter end, even after Studio Liverpool was shut down, very repectable indeed. I'm going to continue doing my best to advertise this campaign.
