Morgoth Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 So, just the other day I'm suddenly recalling again that Obsidian has, besides of Alien RPG and SoZ, also AP along the pipeline, and checking the SEGA release list, they're still saying Feb. 09 as release date. That's like....4-5 months from now! And yet, I haven't seen any hands-on previews, or major media coverage, or gameplay footage, no, nothing! It's like they must have postponed the game another year and forgot to inform the public. Isn't this very untypical? I know SEGA has always been lacklustre regarding marketing buzz and stuff, but Obsidian still owns the AP property, so surely they should have some free reign to talk (and show) more infos to their fans, right? Just sayin' Rain makes everything better.

Cl_Flushentityhero Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Hopefully, they're playing their cards close to their chest. I've not known Obsidian to provide a lot of pre-release coverage on their titles in the past either.
Xard Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Hopefully, they're playing their cards close to their chest. I've not known Obsidian to provide a lot of pre-release coverage on their titles in the past either. NWN2 was everywhere KotOR 2 did get fair amount of coverage too MotB not so much but it is just expansion pack How can it be a no ob build. It has PROVEN effective. I dare you to show your builds and I will tear you apart in an arugment about how these builds will won them. - OverPowered Godzilla (OPG)
SteveThaiBinh Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Is it the developer who organises these things? I always thought it was up to the publisher. If I were a publisher, I think I would want to have the final say in what publicity events happen, whether I owned the IP or not. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)
Xard Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) And of course Alpha Protocol. Again, very big news about to be released concerning this game, for the game itself as well as audio, but I won't spoil it here. Just that we're wrapping up Storm of Zehir and this coming week will be hitting Alpha Protocol HARD. writes Brandon in his blog So quit whining and start to hype yourself up Edited September 26, 2008 by Xard How can it be a no ob build.

Morgoth Posted September 27, 2008 Author Posted September 27, 2008 Boyo, big == good! Rain makes everything better.
Moatilliatta Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 The big news from Obs: Hey guys, big news today. Obsidian Entertainment is closing down and all the devs are taking up embroidery instead. SoZ, Alpha Protocol and the Aliens RPG has been given to Bethesda to finish and will be published by EA. Big news are awesome!

Moatilliatta Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 I don't know. I'm pretty sure the Obs devs could do some wicked embroidery.
SteveThaiBinh Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 Will this embroidery have choices and consequences? How about romances? "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)

Morgoth Posted September 30, 2008 Author Posted September 30, 2008 When will AP news hit me hard oh my when will they hit me? Today? Tomorrow? This week? Rain makes everything better.
mkreku Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Want to know something annoying? My apartment is inside a house owned by "AP Fastigheter", so everytime I walk through the stairwell to my door, I see this big sign that says "AP". And everytime I see it it reminds me of Alpha Protocol. That's how disturbed I am. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Pop Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 When they're done with SoZ, sounds like. Which will probably be a month at least. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!

Matthew Rorie Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Sorry, it's been quiet while the game gets up to alpha. October is looking like it will have some good information released, though, and the process should accelerate from there. Matthew Rorie
