Title: cool....
Post by: kuntguru on January 26, 2002, 09:43:00 pm: This mod looks amaxing, ive been watching over it for awhile...and i like it alot... the story, the new ships (especially that super new one that was in the featured shot) - anyways, just wanted to say it looks amaxing and good job and....

...well...

...i wuz wondering why u aren't mentioned on like FS watch or n e thing, i mean i dont htink many people know about this awesome mod (i dont even remember where I heard of it from (some BB poster on a drunken rampage sayin sumthin about "Machineterra frey pon sit" (guess that's why i wuz so interested) HAH)

- anyways, just sayin compared to like BWO (which i think isnt even as cool-looking as this campaign) you guys dont get much publicity...jus sayin this cuz it would be a shame if you release an incredible mod and no1 knows about it...

anyways, good job...

Post by: Shrike on January 26, 2002, 11:55:00 pm: Generally, Zylon doesn't represent the views of the HLP staff. However, this time around, we might make an exception.

What in god's name gave you the brainwave to come up with that name?

I think to date I've posted as much about MT as I have about BWO on FSW and I work for both teams. Why does BWO have publicity and MT not? I don't know, probably just plain old hype.

I also suppose BWO doesn't look as cool because we're keeping everything a secret while Styxx prefers not to. Judge when they come out (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif).

In either case, we're not competing and infact both teams have collaborated on more than one occasion.

Post by: Styxx on January 27, 2002, 04:58:00 pm: Hey, I am keeping things secre... er, wait - no, we're telleing you everything about the campiagn. Yes, that's it. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

And Machina Terra is probably not as known as Blackwater Operations, or even Inferno and Over the Top lately, because we don't release stuff all the time I guess - and because we don't usually post about the campaign on forums outside this one. So, basically, only people who frequent HLP usually know about us. There were days back when the VBB was acceptable that MT was better known, but anyway... (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

When the campaign is done we'll make sure to pimp it everywhere, and a lot - don't worry. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Post by: Nico on January 27, 2002, 05:08:00 pm: mmh? You forget about the VWBB... MT is well known there, can't say the same for inferno or Over the Top (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif)

Post by: Turnsky on February 10, 2002, 10:40:00 pm: something tells me that the "guru" has walked away in shame of such a bad handle.

Yeah, my campaign needs more p1mp... Anyway, when i try, it ends up... well, see my last attempt in the modding forum (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif)
Plus I don't like to p1mp, in fact ( unlike Law Enforcer (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif) )

Post by: Fineus on February 13, 2002, 03:29:00 am: For reference I've got a few ideas on how to pimp campaigns without having people posting stuff on all the forums just to gain attention... but we'll see (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
Title: cool....
Post by: Styxx on February 14, 2002, 05:13:43 am: The best way to keep people interested in your campaign, I think, is to constantly release new information, pics, models, and any other stuff about it. The problem with MT is that we just don't want to give too much away right now, not to spoil the fun for when the campaign's done. If all goes well, though, and I get the time to work on several things that need to be done, we'll have more stuff posted soon. :)
Title: cool....
Post by: Setekh on February 20, 2002, 02:20:14 am: Hopefully, a good campaign will be able to stand for itself, without having to get everyone interested in it beforehand. :)

Well, don't think you'd enter location info if it was a one-joke... Rather I think you guys scared him off... :lol:
