I have seen this picture a while ago on my brothers "Gentleman and Scholar" Account a while ago, should maybe take a peek at it again :)
But srsly, it's awesome how it changed and how the engine impressivly adjusts the atmosphere as already shown on an public melee:bg  youtube video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqXkarSSrlE).
This combined with smoother graphics and the new set shadow shown on this screenshot, is just an awesome imagination 8-)

mh? what you mean? I know very little about these things and already guessed that these are only some wrong settings. Still wondered, because for me (probably without the right knowledge) the video looked rather not so good.
Title: Re: Melee: Battlegrounds
Post by: Butan on October 27, 2014, 02:20:43 pm
I think likewise, I see a very detailed but at the same time very ugly video  :mrgreen: 
99% sure it will be solved with proper development time on the graphics... this is a demo and on the "potential" meter seeing all those weird effects put together mean that "the game support this" more than "this is the game", which is why alpha stuff can be shocking.

But since development can be quite subjective, it can be refreshing for developers to hear obvious facts like, we dont want that in the end.

No. There will be a NO Ranged DLC for 499,99€ , which makes the buyer invulnerable to incoming ranged attacks.

Sounds good, also try to answer the most "important" questions, like steam release and so on. :)

You can also try posting that on Reddit - if it goes "viral" there, it will also be mirrored on imgur front page.

Also, galleries, rather than just a single pic - better chance of getting upvoted to the front.

Is it just me who thinks that the horse proportions seem to be off?
Head too small compared to body, or something?

Horses asses are huge

In but not working as intended. We opted to not use them for now and go with a diffuse type of texture instead.

He means shadows casted by grass (disabled for performance reasons).

This so much this. And add some bits and pieces of info under each pic. Nessaj I know you can do better :). Just that you would pretty much want the kickstarter page to be ready and published before the real attempt at going viral. Then you can give them a link to the money button :D. The publicity in imgur comes fast (if it happens) and is yesterday's news almost as fast.

The good thing is that imgur loves to see stuff that others make (they even upvote food pics to the frontpage ftw). Such potential, much indie, wow.

There's no reason to just yet, we'd waste momentum on nothing. These were merely tests. No description was a choice because we don't want to throw "it" out there in big fashion just yet. Timing is everything.

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


You probably won't see more screens shared publicly via imgur until we're really ready to dance, which hopefully won't be too long :wink:

Yep.

Just make a gallery of 5-10 images (of which preferably one is a gif) and write descriptions ready for the operation imgur. I know you got this :wink:

Edit: Also throwing random mysterious screenshots like you just did might be good for the big day as well. Some random people have already seen it before and are somewhat hyped by it and create more momentum when you put the pedal to the metal :).

Also, hide a banana somewhere in the screens. They like bananas for scale. And someone will undoubtedly notice it.

Just don't mention it, because no one likes excessive pandering.

That said, I barely passed my marketing exam, so hell do I know. I went into accounting. :P

This is good. You could also photoshop Carter into one of the screens (includes banana as well) :D.

If you can have custom banner I also dont think that dickbutt would go that bad on a shield, but on the other hand, adding a bunch of standard imgur highranking things to a serious game might have the opposit effect.
Don't think the whole idea is to get those glorious fake points, but to get a good marketing opportunity for a new game in the making. :)
