Getting your (Unity) game on Steam: will get you over 100,000 impressions quickly but it's not enoug

ThatNickguy started as a very genuine....or so I thought.

Then he started mentioning Jason Stateham's youtube channel in every single post and for "some" reason he has his name in his steam's description - even from his country. Call me paranoid but i refure to accept such kind of promoting, also known as: spam.

Just becauese he got away with a good first message doesn't give him the right to sell....bikes or simply promote someone's youtube channel all the time when this wasn't the topic.

 

I live in the UK too, why not tell me since I enjoy using xenforo features.

 

You just want the opportunity to use them a few more times before you're stuck dealing with the Lithium features.

 

oh well...the guy who knows how to use who.is.

Where have you been? Those type of "smart people" have been...well I've been missing them since years.

"Good job", sherlock!

 

google "feed the trolls". I'd leave it like that, for...well because i can.

 

I honestly don't want lithium at all. Simple as that. If Unity can't be open about researching alternatives, I have to question why they want it. They're not open enough.

Don't understand why it would lead to you being upset about "his" country. He doesn't own it.

 

That's why i wondered if he had played a video game before. Maybe the formula is supposed to be "decent gun models, decent environment (skyscrapers), player can shoot at things => decent shooter game".

I also think there is a misconception about why people take exception to asset flips: I dont think it's so much because someone actually bought (or downloaded free) assets to use in his game, but because his greenlight and early access prototype is supposed to indicate someone's skill and talent as a developer. When it turns out that someone just took UnitZ then it's obvious that he is neither willing nor able to keep working on the game, and with crappy early access games it's often about promises and expectations ("i'll make the game good, i promise; Just look what i've already achieved" [shows UnitZ]).
Kinda the Star Citizen principle, haha.

 

So you blamed Unity for your technical problems first and now you blame Steam for your low sales, you just can't accept that your project is bad and that you are not ready to make a commercial project. Seriously, how old are you?

Also IIRC the NDA doesn't stop you from discussing your sales, I've seen plenty of developers sharing their numbers, Hell I do it too from time to time.

 

is your game really that bad that an interview will get you banned from the UK, or his island as you like to call it?

 

What's sad is that really is most of the formula. Tight controls and interesting enemies are really all he is missing.

 

For the record, he will regard this as trolling.

 

He clearly came into this wanting to emulate the slaughtering grounds guys. I don't think you'd have known about them if you didn't play video games to some extent.

The website kind of solidifies it though, he's not even trying to be a game developer. He's a scammer who figured he could make money on the video game side, then ended up getting sort of stuck in it. It took too long for him to do. He got a little too invested in actually trying to make something. Despite being a scammer, I think he sincerely wanted someone to appreciate his work.

It really explains almost everything.

I mean, that website where he sells facial recognition software and f**king superconductors - lol.

 

I've actually seen several complete movies that Boll made and most of them are truely bad. Not even the entertaining kind of bad like all the brilliant Troma trash, just really bad. However the Postal movie actually was entertaining for me. And after having seen an interview, I actually started getting a bit of respect for him. And say what you will, him following through on the "I'll fight you!" threats is kind of cool. Not fair really, since he had boxing experience and they didn't, but at least he's not "all talk".

 

Here's how I see you though, you're welcome :

Lol, very cute

So I'm pretty close?

 

You do realize that most of your audience at this point consists of those trolls, right? By all means feed those trolls.

 

In an attempt to make this thread even more random...I found this:

http://g3ar.co.za/2012/10/15/patent...infringed-for-years-before-patent-was-issued/

so, patent troll is actually a thing.

 

Also, I love that you finally responded. After the 4 posts about how you were "too good to feed trolls" - that last post was a little too much for you to resist...hahahah

 

You must live under a rock.

 

i just instructed the guy from the Queen's county to google "feed the trolls", not saying i'd resist or anything...well.

 

Aim higher. Uhm, well, lower really, much, much lower:

lol, very funny dude. I read the subtext. There are some numbers on that site too if you want to play this game

 

well, fine - i googled it. But i still don't know what twitch or dota is...till recently i had no idea what WoW is when a guy asked me if i play it but consider this: I've made tens and even hundreds of products, having sold thousands of them without having a good knowledge of the sphere I am in. Maybe with some exceptions, I like books and making music but sometimes...well anyway

^ got longer than planned.

 

Sadly Turbine is very good at putting themselves under. They don't need any help from anyone else.

 

This thread is just pointless without any effort from anyone including the op, so it's locked.
