Meh, if we always waited for the next release, we'd never get anything done.

I've postponed advertising 2.1... 2.2... I'm not gonna wait for 3.0. :/

my point of viev is this:
you want to advertise the version without new graphics that is nearly like the original game?
players will look on it ant those who will not like it will most likely not look on it again

on the matter of moddb i think that the old versions of the game should be removed to avoid confusion. What do you think?

У меня вопрос: будут ли когда-нибудь выложены у вас на сайте видеоролики к игре с русской озвучкой? Я человек из России и английского не знаю.

My question is: will there ever be posted on your site to the video game with a Russian voice acting? I am a man from Russia and the English do not know.

As far as I know there is only English and German version. So until someone will create other versions it won't be available...

Good points on both end. While it may be best not to delay spreading the word, I think the fact that version 3 coming out soon changes everything. The fact is, allot of people are into graphics, so waiting a bit before publicizing the game may be the right move now, since I doubt anyone who isn't really into RTS games will decide to just try Warzone.

The prettier graphics may help with getting someone to try the game, then hopefully they'll get hooked on the gameplay. I've made forum posts in the past (not sure how many players it brought to WZ) but holding off until the version 3 is probably the best move right now. We can prepare some stuff for the advertising until then.

As andron stated, if potential players see it and are turned off (graphics may cause that) then they may not decide to check it out another time. So wait, so we can wow them with an even better first impression!

I apologize if this has been suggested. This game when the 3.0 release comes along should release a game play trailer at the same time. I feel that it can make a game much more enticing than a release announcement and a few screenshots. It is also a good way to showcase new features in a way better than basically a changelog.

I am working on some ideas for advertisement. If anyone would like to help out with any ideas, feel free to send me a personal message here on the forums.
