How to attract more people.

[Dunenewt]

How could we attract more people to this board and get more people to buy the game? I mean it doesn't cost that much to get it off e-bay and if just a few people from this site  bought it we could get this board much busier.

If it was still being sold at the store near me I would have bought it. I saw it there one day but I didn't buy it. $10 Canadian.

Dunno, is there a competition that is possible for the game? Like a time race or some other stats?

Would be a pretty cool multiplayer game. Trying to kill your opponent with a Crysknife. :)

[Dunenewt]

I don't think its possible to edit it :(

Maybe we could tell people to buy it as a stocking filler for Christmas.

[Dunenewt]

It's not crap and at

Reverse engineer the game and offer it with workable controls, bug fixes, the author's name spelled correctly, and a few mor missions for good measure.

(Ok, to be fair, I did complete it with a touchpad, but the controls are still lacking)

[Dunenewt]

You've completed it now? No longer stuck on the Worm mission? 

Well I'd like a FPS done with some of the features of FH's Dune personally.

[nemafakei]

Yes, I used a computer with an external keyboard without a broken down key and was careful. Thereafter, it was relatively straightforward, with the possible exception of the lengthy smuggler mission. (And the last mission I managed first time). Though that's no excuse for it being difficult to control. Difficulty should come from the gameplay, not the controls.

I brought emperor cos it was a RTS and dune2k only for the same reason. So I guess it is just the wrong type of game for me.

[Dunenewt]

But if you saw it in Game for a fiver would you buy it?

[erjin999]

Well, of I did, it would only sit on the shelf next to Dune2k, while I wear out my emperor discs.  :-

[Dunenewt]

Wouldn't you give it a go?

[erjin999]

Oh shure I would try it out, I would try everything it can do, but I just dont think it would be as much fun as emperor. Maybe I could be wrong, but I have played a lot of those big hyped games, and they have been good, but a small low hype game like emp has my loyalty.

I would give it a fair shot, like I did for Dune2k.

I wish I could suggest a good way for you to attract more people. Maybe somewhere to get some info would be a start, as I dont know harldy anything about this game (including its existence for a while).

[Sober]

I saw it for like 10$ Jewel Case, but tis long gone. Oh well.

[Dunenewt]

Each to their own.  I rather enjoyed it. It's a great RPG, and the graphics were and still are very very good.

[Dunenewt]

Role Playing Game. 

The graphics were very good, I doubt therefore, your game was running at its best.

[GUNWOUNDS]

This game is not a RPG....Morrowind was a RPG... and FYI a "dud" with pretty graphics is one of the worst gaming offenses.

[XaarKhan]

I used to have the game but never managed to hold out long enough to learn the controls.

The controls putted me off and finally I never played it.

As for the topic, if you want more players to get the game you could make a sticky with links to reviews, patches and more stuff.
