Hopefully not. Hmm...but I don't know. Which is the best marketing strategy? Release a demo before or after the game is out? Maybe releasing a demo before the game is out would be the best choice, but I don't know too much about marketing.

Re: The Demo
Well it would be, but the devs can only do so much, especially when there's only one coder.

Re: The Demo
Don't blame everything on lack of programming resources. High levels of Sloth scales in southern sweden might have something to do with it. As might high levels of Order sclaes in North Carolina.

Re: The Demo
Too bad North Carolina isn't closer to Sweden. Otherwise, we could all put a lot of faith in Shrapnel and hope for a dominion push to speed up the demo release. 
Here's hoping my Luck scale here in Atlanta somehow has an effect. |

It hasn't had an effect on 285 traffic, so my hopes are minimal

Re: The Demo
I'm confident that the threat of a sudden and determined supercombatant invasion from the neighboring province of southern Finland will keep the population in southern Sweden busy.

Re: The Demo
I think Johan took a breather after getting out the Gold.
As far as marketing... Im not sure if the game sales would be effected much by the demo prior to the release of the game. However, a week or two later when we all turn into Zealots trying to convert everyone we know.. well then it would be handy to have. 
Ahhhh thats the Tshirt I need.

I can understand that. Wish there was a way we could all get together and have a Gold Party.

I don't knwo much neither about marketing, yet releasing the game *and* the demo *simultaneously* would likely have maximum "hype" effect |
