Hi just wanted to voice my concerns for when catacombs expansion is released over here.
I can't see there being many new players when it comes out if any as the marketing in Britain is non-existant. Mythic seem happy to not bother with Britain and just sell the game by word of mouth which is really crap. when ToA came out they was hardly any adverts in mgazines etc atll, if any. And all games magazines gave a crappy quarter of a page to review it yet they give about 6 pages to EvE and SWG etc... they gave ToA mostly above 80% but by reading the review i just feel they didn't really care enough. DAoC is one of most popular online games but mostly gets ignored by the press and marketing is horrendous. Mythic/GoA made no effort at all to promote ToA when it was released but i remember when SI came out there was alot of adverts in magazines, i remember getting a poster for SI from PCgamer with maps and stuff. I just feel British release for Catacombs will be ignored or forgotten about just like ToA was which is a shame coz daoc is one of my fave games and every year more and more ppl leave game with nearly no new players, also the fact that DAoC is nearly impossible to get hold of in Britain which is just sad.
Cmon Mythic marketing department, get yer fingers out of yer arses and do some work for a change
