First Screenshots Released

[angad]

sorry to post in this thread. But I'd say he hasn't got it. It looks like a press event or a show to the players. You can see stadium seats just below tv. They are at a cricket ground.

Why be sorry!! You are as much a member of this forum as us....the whole forum is open for you !!!

It can also be a marketing gimmick!! Have broad post an old pic, and then release a trailer with much better graphics than whats shown in that pic. That ways even if the graphics in the trailer are not great, they would still get some positive attention as people would then start comparing it with broad's tweet!!

Either way, this pic looks awfully bad. Nothing worse than showing off such builds to the public when you are already facing the heat!

And this post shows once again how no one listens to facts.

Even though the idea is not a BAD one 505 Marketing department has screwed up enough for me to realize they couldn't market anything even if their lives depended on it... Broad either foolishly released info he wasn't supposed to or got mega pissed at the fact that his model sucks so he took revenge ...and personally i'd choose revenge if i was Broad...

Am pretty sure they re-hauled their marketing and PR strategy (and maybe personnel) after the big messup they had

They'd sue broad for making the game look even worse. Meanwhile on Ashes 13 fb page, ppl are crying for a release date. Sigh.

That is a stupid statement IMHO...

You can clearly see graphics are worse so how can it be a patched IC 10 with improvements?...
U know... maybe that's why it took so many years for development... We all thought they were making a new engine while in fact they were making a DOWNGRADE patch all along... And believe me that stuff is pretty hard to do! Ask me, i'm a reverse-engineer myself
(for those having trouble comprehending... this is sarcasm)

They can't sue Broad for revealing their own blunders... They cannot and wouldn't want to either... You really think people will support a company like 505 Games if they sue Stuart Broad!? and not to mention for something as stupid as that... They don't want bad rep...

 

[barmyarmy]

The PR agency assure me they're still involved but recent info on the game has come from the CEO of Trickstar posting a video on facebook and an England cricketer posting a screenshot taken with his phone.
Just when you thought the marketing campaign could get no weirder.

If it was a blunder they would have told him to remove the tweet.

Not necessarily. It may have been a blunder but they might have realised that removing the post would have made things worse, as people would have asked questions.

Take it easy mate. Think I should've mentioned that it was a JOKE!

i meant that the whole game is a blunder and its not Broad's fault for showing a picture of it...
