New ideas for e+
about ur fodder part, just about this part, if i imagine fodder in a trailer, people may get the impression that u can't hit in e+.
Then you see skull, or someone equivelant and go huh, they have a varying population of skill and style. Keep in mind, clips are only 3-5 seconds, in most cases. To show anything more is simply annoying. Pretend you are a producer, You are filming a school kid. the whole day is exciting, the kickball match, the 10 minutes of laughter when someone sneezed and farted in math, etc. Everything except the silent 5 minute walk to and from school. You would probably exclude that because it has no value to the film. Now, if the school kid met up with a girl on the walk to or from school you would probably include that in the movie, or at least that brief scene.
That's why you have to be mindful of what to include in an advertisement. Show them how EVERYONE moves, not just you, or that guy who just randomly bfg jumps around hitting off walls, or the guy with the CPMA strafing; show them how EVERYONE shoots, not just skull, show them how everyone gang bangs and dogfights, not just the most anticipated 1v1 match between two unnamed e+ players who never come on anymore. You show enough variety, to let THEM think for themselves, wow they have variety, i could fit in there. The point is, we show too much of the shots that only happen once every game and not enough of the ACTUAL game play. Or you show too much of one person, which lets outsiders assume everyone plays like that one person.
Of course, getting people to try the game, and getting people to like it and stay are two different things.
nicely said joey.
actually i suggest somebody starts an community movie.
here is an example of what im talking about:
What would be nice to see would be a comedy movie based around the personalities and play styles of the current players. (also their doesn't appear to be a comedy e+ movie, yet so many other games have them). This would be popular and help the mod.
This could be nice way to show what are community is like. (not just a load of people showing of their massive skills)
have weird idea, DOOM3, i saw q4 is not so poppular and dead thing, i wonder how e+ can look at doom3 :DDDD ok maybe its just a joke, but anyway :DD grafiks are cool ,
i think fancy things(high qual.grafik) atrakts too, i saw there are many mods for q3 that enchases grafik ;] take them and use on e+ as default thing, so any newcomer not knowing that will omg this is new q3, and its e+ ,
including gun skins HQ textrues efekts ... make some ~40-60mb xp2.1a pack nowadays mostly all have gud conections ~100mb download isnt a problem, so ~10mb adidtional maps pack includet can be too, or mby just make an addon for e+ with maps+textures+skins+hq_icons

can't disagree, kids dont care about skill much, they have to have some fun , anyway we too are not snobs
hmmms... nice ideas
i would help if i can. Maybe we make first the youtube account and upload the nice movies from the past.
- facebook account for E+
There already is youtube account, terror knows more about it
ohh ok thx for info
1 )advertise around the internet(moddb, wiki pages, quake sites, etc).
2 )a standalone game with new maps and models.
3 )make on E+ gametype and maps from Q3 TEAM ARENA.
4 )Add e+ to Clanbase or ESL..
5 )more developers such as coders (for improving mod).
6 )webdevs (to finish this site).
7 )designer (for some art work).
8 )people for documentation.
9 )make a trailer video.
10)an Excessiveplus account for youtube
I agree with joey and skull, but I think that we need to make a guideline, a progect or something similar before to start working.
i would also involve more people as possible, because this is a free comunity where who are member should have the burden to make it grown.
