Yeah and we let that happen on purpose. Of course! Why would you miss out on attention.
I mean come on guys, in the end, it's a fort and clan technology. For WIJ, it's going to be fantastic doing defense-sessions at Vermillion and other future forts. It's going to help us a lot and it's going to be a lot of fun. And that's what it's designed to do! I hope a lot of raiding clans will enjoy their time as well. Clans are meant to be fun.
It's not a new massive Xbox or PC game coming out! It's much smaller than that. Yeah, the hype is massive but it created itself (with a little push from the creators, of course, I mean hype is fantastic to have). It got to the point where hype can't overcome the game. But it was an awful lot of fun.
I learned that hype isn't necessarily the best thing to have. And you guys can do WIJ a favour by judging it *not* from the hype, but from the update of W3 to W6 (BiB).
Oh and all clan projects are like this. There is no difference. It's the jump from previous tech to new tech, and fun, that matters.
Thanks.

Being humble is certainly a step down from the luster, huh?
As some advice, if you're going to hype a project, hype it with news of features you actually are going to add, so people have something to look forward to.
Instead of getting overhyped by vague details. |

| no, silentswords is probably just upset by the (presumably) large amount of people under-crediting the system, which is actually nice. it's totally understandable. |

@Master
I'm sorry but the Q&A thread got like 10 pages and was up for a long time. Besides, we didn't intentionally want it to grow like this. We gave it a push yeah but who doesn't want the attention. You would too.
A lot of clan projects are misadvertised for the sake of attention, that's my conclusion.

No, it doesn't. All these projects are apples and oranges. You can't compare different engines from different genres or themes. People try and set out to do what they want, and ultimately, it's up to the public to decide what's considered good or not.
I'm just stoked to see all this pride, while not being yours in particular, being swallowed. We're all equals, and now it's becoming more obvious. |

We are. Hype is the ignorant factor here. If you truly need to compare tech, do it without the hype influence it had.

Don't get too ahead of yourself CT. You've been hyping yourself a very large amount, and Spectrum will most likely be the same result.
Good, but not what was promised or bragged on. |

"BIB SO GOOD" "BIB BETTER THAN SPECTRUM" "WOW GUYS BIBx1000" "1000 BIB THREADS" "BIB BIB BIB" "SPECTRUM BAD BIB GOOD" "ALL HAIL GLORIOUS BIB MASTER RACE"
-bib released-
"WOW GUYS I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU WERE EXPECTING SO MUCH AND GETTING SO HYPED, JUDGE IT JUST BE THE TRANSITION"
And thus Silent's pompous attitude these past few months hit him in the face.
GLORIOUS SPECTRUM MASTER RACE REPORTING OUT. |

| It's just annoying that something is getting a lot of praise when it really shouldn't, or just not that much. Very similar to how that 'shock troopers' claim victory when they had such a BS advantage. The problem here is: illegitimate results, and has been for a year. |

Spectrum has caused some hype too. Do you seriously believe it'll live upto the hype? |
