Poor Marketing/Release on PS4/xbox1?

[Jamie1]

No.

Sorry Sir Biggs, I just get these crazy ideas sometimes

 

[Biggs]

I accept your apology, like I accept the marketing of GTA.

 

[Crossy333]

If we stopped talking about the game someone might start trying to sell us kitchens.

 

[Biggs]

^This is a fellow who receives it.

I'm fairly certain GTA has kitchens.

edit: Thanks internet:

 

[Snowy]

Look how far NEXT GEN has taken us

 

[Biggs]

I feel like technology was advanced JUST to make kitchens photo realistic like that. Makes the ladies feel more comfortable I guess...

 

[MattW]

I was quite disappointed to find out the kitchen wasn't accurately restored in the house where Bradman grew up. Bat to the future at Bradman's home

Where will I bake the cake?!

I can't believe he opened a thread for this.

PS I to feel the game will not release this month but the rest was well even
worse than my posts. Matt he also talked about GTA, time for the PC bat of pain.

For Ross here you go mate, when you do read though this new thread just think ) Positve.

The game was set to release in March as of late January, 2 months before the expected release date.

Sure, an exact release date wasn't provided, but who cares if it gets pushed a bit into April, or if the date only comes not long before the game is actually released? Seriously, I actually like the fact that I don't have a set date, so I don't have a day (the day before) that takes forever to pass by, because I am expecting the game.

GTA is one of the most popular game series in the world at the moment, and so it's sales is not only done by marketting, but also by the fact that people trust it to be a good game, and most people enjoy the style of game it is. Cricket is a sport not enjoyed by that many around the globe, and you don't expect it to sell that many, and so of course, the amount of copies distributed to stores will be far, far less.

Please, be patient. TruBlu may give a reward if people are patient.

Sorry to disappoint but if you're thinking realistically this game wont release in March 2014... Thats literally under 30 days and we dont have a release date. I think it will get pushed back alot more. which is sad cause these developers seem to have absolute no clue about marketing. You have to announce a release date atleast 3-5 months prior to release. Look at games like GTA for example, which is no comparison to this game but even games that are scaled that high needs alot of marketing prior to release. Look how well GTA did in the market. Now I'm not trying to compare GTA to this game but thats just an example.


Another thing is PS3/360 Era is slowly dieing. Its been like 4 months since the release of the new consoles and once the price drops in a couple of months, 80% of the gamers will move on to the new consoles. Which is pathetic cause they have no plans to release this game in next gen. I think its better to just delay the game and release it in both gens. Or Release the game on this gen and port it to ps4 later in the year.


What do you think?

fonz?

 

[grkrama]

^fonz had a way with words like scripted randomness and stuff

 

[Biggs]

Comparing GTA or any AAA title with DBC14 is like comparing Melbournes best cafe? promotional advertising with McCafe's.

Irrelevant.


? SevenAM, Bay Street, Port Melbourne... Ask for Jason
