On the Promotion of Planeshift...

[Icefalcon]

Heh, that won\'t be what he gets. My estimation is 2 months yet. Better be safe than sorry. Anyway, I have mentioned Planeshift to a number of friends, but unfortunately, none has looked into it extensively. I keep urging though.

Ive talked to alot of friends, and on some forums Ive posted. But for some reason I always find hack\'and slash bloks. So no use, or they totally lack the IQ for a RPG. So they just kill everything in sight. Not a good thing

But I tried, al you can do right?

I\'ve got a badge to PS on my website which gets about 100 hits a month (at the moment, I might add some PhotoShop tuts which will increase that).  Those who have a personal website etc. and would like a badge you can go to my website and just do a save as on the picture (http://www.falconnet.co.nr orhttp://www.freepgs.com/falcon  - same thing).  It\'s there just below the nav bar.  I\'ve mentioned PS on my school message board, but I don\'t think much attention will come from here as no one can play it.  :/  Maybe some of my fellow animation students will give it some attention...

There was a mention on http://www.linuxgames.com a couple of days ago.

Just curious...does anyone know if many Windows users have shown interest in Planeshift or not?  (I\'m guessing its probably no...but it never hurts to ask  )

[josephoenix]

A good number of all new planeshift players are windows users, simply because there are more windows users than linux users in the world at the moment (\"I and my New Earth Order will change that and overthrow the evil empire! Yarr!\" )
The development team has packaged it up nicely for them and planeshift has been mentioned on many sites whose main target audience has been windows users. One of the great things about planeshift is and will continue to be (hopefully) its cross-platform compatibility. True, the mac version of MB was never released since there were endian issues that couldn\'t be resolved without everyone changing their client, but dfryer is working diligently on a MAC OS X port and the project, being open source, is (theoretically) portable to any platfor m your heart desires

Altharion,
     I doubt that anyone will be making any bets with you this time unless they either A: were not here last year or B: know nothing about testing problems.

I\'m on a Windows box (mumbles something) and it works pretty well. Also when there was a thread with people posting pictures of their desktops I seem to remember the bulk of them being WinXP desktops, although I do remember a couple distinct Lnx users and I only remember seeing one Mac screene
     Pretty much if you can operate a computer with any level of dignity you can play the game. There are those that do nothing but complain about how they want it to be like every other game out there but thats not a computer issue is it now.
