Yep, it's so terrible that I consider it non work safe, especially with the ridiculously loud and annoying music.

LOL that music is pretty bad and annoying might be an understatement. It almost borders offensive.

The page would be much better served with something like.This

Which is at least tolerable to listen to while your reading the page.

While we may be groaning about the adverts and stuff. Gotta say this community is really something special.

How many other products do you know of where the existing customers actually give a damn about how the product is marketed?

If sum1 does make a film because of a contest, I think the winner shuld not only get a free year subscription but also a years worth of free beer (no budweiser). Waddah ya think ?

Nope it's on all the time. I saw it yesterday around 11:30 am CT. They must have gotten the cut rate advertizing plan....when no one is home or awake...

Now I know why most of the noob's are between 10-14. Adults look at the commerical and say to themselves "I wonder why they're putting arcade game commercials on this channel".

The flight model is so much more than what's represented in the commercial. If nothing else they should update it to the modern version including the outstanding explosions and smoke trails when a plane goes boom!

IMHO, if you want a larger audience then take that 15-30 second spot and shoot what the game's flight model really looks like.

what makes the vidoes look crappy is that there shown in F3 mode now if it was in F4 mode it sould look ALOT better

I thought to commercial told as much about the game as it could within the 30second's it has to do so.

Ones percpetion on what looks good may differ.

Did it get the job done? Yes. IMO it did.

Was it effective? Yes. I see more and more new players in the game each week.

Did it look good? Some of it did some of it didn't. Much of it has to do with the limitations of the film viewer.

Maybe if Hitech wanted to do another commercial created by the players there could be a contest type of event where the 30 second films would be submited and then voted upon bt the HTC staffers?

Again, its near imposible to show someone who knows nothing about this game everything it has to offer in a 30 second time frame. That being said... I think the current commercial does a good job at this.

Actually, this is something that we've been talking about.  We've seen a lot of films produced by the community that impress us and we'd love to tap into some of that talent.  We're looking at putting together a contest of sorts to see if someone from the community could actually produce a 30 second spot for us to air.

Ah just read your post pyro...took me a little more than two minutes to type up that whole wall of text.



In that case...it's my commercial idea...MIIIIIIIIIIINE!  Muahahaha!

What about teaming up with people...often times it takes more than one person to gather the required film and do all the editing.  Allow up to 3 players to team up on a commercial?

[lasersailor184]

Yeah, I know, I know.  No need to thank me.

I think one of the biggest challenges will be to compile the movie without violating any copyrights in the process.

We'll need some musical talent at least.

I'm on it..  Just have to give me an idea on copywright laws you don't want me to break...  I can do it...  I have a ton of ideas..

What format do you want, size of file, and size of viewing screen.

[NUKE]

Is there a schedule for that commercial? I'd like to see it.

[daddog]

That would be good.  I have not see the commercial, (no T.V. here) but I have heard it really lacks.

Go for it Stream!
