Competition Codexian Wasteland 2 Location + Statue Fund-Raising Drive

[Shannow]

I want Wasteland 2 to be a good game. You're more optimistic about it than I am. It's a slippery slope for shit like this. It will only get worse in future kickstarters with people paying for more and more dumb shit that will ruin the games.

It's not so much that I'm more optimistic (I may or may not be), I just prefer to be constructive about it. I don't see the point in whining about fans making stupid suggestions. Just give a counter point. The Super Poll I plan on making will have options to vote for muted vs. wacky references and I'm pretty sure most people will prefer the muted option.
And even if inXile go totally wacky and over-the-top with the references that might fit the game and turn out better than anything discrete that I may suggest. On the other hand they may implement it discretely and it'll be complete shit.
Either way, 1) I doubt very much that the overall quality of the game will hinge on this one aspect 2) I'll only start whining when inXile start showing stupid stuff.

No digital copy for me either.

I wrote this in the paypal comment, but just in case, I don't need a digital copy either.

I will donate $1 just to get a $15 copy then

He raises a valid point. Donations under $15 shouldn't be eligble for digital copies, as that would just undercut Brian Fargo and result in less jewgoldz being sent towards W2.

Don't worry. Currently, I'm only negotiating copies for those who've donated at least $15 (and needs one) with Fargo. Nothing is set in stone yet, but that is most likely to be the case. As soon as we reach an agreement, I or DU will post an official announcement.

I don't agree, if someone wants to donate 10$ then he will, even if he does not get a digital copy. We stated specifically that this donation is for Wasteland2 and the whole digital copy business will be worked out later on. If people that donated less than 15$ get a copy, why be butthurt about it ? Isn't it great that we all can probably get a digital copy ? Or would you want to hoard your copies just so that <15$ donators will not get one ? I *really* don't think that the tens of users that donated less than 15$ will impact Brian's profit much eh.

 

[Ulminati]

But the second someone would be willing to donate $15 directly for a copy, but decides to donate $10 to our fundraiser instead because it looks likely he'll get a cheaper copy that way, we're competing directly with the kickstarter page. Which seems counterproductive for a fundraiser for the project.

and if someone isn't willing to pay $15 for wasteland 2, fuck 'em. They don't deserve nice things anyway.

 

[felipepepe]

No need for copy for me either.

 

[Marshall Malibu]

Give my copy to another bro.

 

[CappenVarra]

My copy is up for grabs as well.

 

[TwinkieGorilla]

I've noted everyone who's said we can keep their copy in the thread to date.

Add me to that list. Give mine to the starving children!

It is I, another member of the list who will not be needing the digital copy!

 

[majestik12]

I wonder why people who have registered yesterday already are patrons and I am still not.

 

[Havoc]

Maybe you donated only 5$ like me.

 

[Jasede]

Give me a copy, I haven't donated anything.

WASTELAND2

I wonder why people who have registered yesterday already are patrons and I am still not.

I was wondering the same thing but DU said that he was getting to them today. I imagine it has been quite the clusterfuck with so much going on recently.

I mean he still has to find time to use all that money so that hookers can do lines of coke off of his cock. Priorities, man!

Illuminati, all of them.

I was a patron before.Lost it somehow with the site overhaul and still not even after I've made my donation for wasteland 2. Maybe we don visit frequent enough to count as patrons ( :looks sadly at the post count)

 

[DarkUnderlord]

Noted up to here everyone who said we can keep their copy, though I note a large majority of them aren't in the top 50 anyway...

Going through the list and organising donations now.

 

[HanoverF]

I don't need a copy, if I qualify M:

 

[MetalCraze]

DU I hope you won't be a moron and will ask Fargo to NOT include a reference to the Codex or any other forum or nerd into the game because of this donation.

Please. You know it's the right thing to do.

 

[Marquess Cornwallis]

DU: I'm listed twice on the donor list (kicked up the contribution twice, some of it probably wasn't merged with the original), don't need a copy.

 

[Gregz]

That's kinda the point man. Subtle, tasteful rape. An inside joke, but present in the game to show that we were there when the revolution started. That we helped kindle it, and then fanned the fucking flames.

The statue should be with two raging middle fingers raised high towards

and all the other AAA dildos who were instrumental in the decline.

This was about far more than Wasteland (awesome game that it is), it was about taking back what's ours.

 

[Jasede]

I think you might be getting a bit too much into this. I am hoping for the best but thinking that this is some kind of new movement that'll liberate us from publishers is a bit premature. We'll just have to wait and see.

 

[oldmanpaco]

Come on Jasede drink the Kool-Aid!

Also I don't need a copy (and I am in the top 50 bitches so my sacrifice is a real C&C deal).

Also it would be cool if we could be the donation that put them over the 1.5 million mark.

Also I'm drunk on a random week night. Do I have a problem?
