Lol good for that guy  :D

Edit: Maybe it's a good idea to spread word, but probably not on Squads website. Maybe on other medieval games forums since those would be people who would actually play.

I usually spread it on Taleworlds and Life is Feudal forums... but there is little if any response these days.

We should start recruiting people to fill up cities, even tho a playable epic world might be a while a way, clans could get some practice together in the Conquest thing. A head start couldn't hurt anyone.  :D. Just finding a good leader could be hard

Well the clans are pretty much set already, Druzhina, Greys, Templars etc. etc.

There are already plenty of guys waiting for it.
The team just needs to throw out a copy to some gay youtubers with no reallife expect streaming, let them increase the hipe for the costs of a free copy, lean back and see how little children will flow over (like lol lcs and counterstrike streamers these days there are plenty of "we play everything" chummers with more than 1-2 million views each vid.)
So I guess spreading the word to your friends should be enough at this state.. Also there is no kickstartet at the moment so potential players will read and visit everything, can't buy it and forget about it next months.. just stay tuned should be enough  :oops:

I know that RipperX obviously is already on board with MBG. imagine AngryJoe would test it... I know he already played some M&B so he might be interested in this as well.

Well the conquest mode reminds me very much of Squad, so I thought, maybe when people are tired of shooting other people in Squad, they will come looking for some Melee.  :wink:

There's little point in promoting M:BG at this stage. Until they have a proper trailer and/or a gameplay video people won't get excited about the game, as amazing as it is to watch a sleep deprived chadz monologue.

That's not to say the dev blogs are pointless, but they're just catering to people who've been following the project for a long time already, i.e., cRPGers.

Still, when they have somethink and a person, who's already heard about the game hears about it, they are less likely to just pass it as another shit game, rather they might think Hey I heard that somewhere before, oh yeah it's that game someone told me about when it was early in development, lets check it out now, when they have a beta or whatever...
