William Porter's Blog

Recommended Posts

I think I saw that in the ArmA demo I played at GDC.  Glad to see you pulling ideas from the community Medvidek

Don't forget we are still watching these forums smile_o.gif

Amazing idea, you guys are really creative.

Much better than the EA tv adverts "Girls, Guns, Bang, Movie Tie in".

This fits in perfectly keep it up biggrin_o.gif

Here is my question, and I don't ask you to reveal anything big. tounge2.gif

Is there a plan on the regular updates of the blog? Like every 4 days or weekly, or it's just random when you get time?

Try to check William's weblog every day and you will see how it is smile_o.gif But Will said something like he is not able to get to the internet every day...

Long time BIS contacted me with a request, they wanted me to draw something , a kind of angry man very badly , without any talent.

Of course it was a (bad attempt at making a) joke wink_o.gif

actually i think this blog is just to make us mad.. tounge2.gif

why would BIS creat a blog like this? What for?

If they want to expose info they should do in a normal way, not like this... this is torture, psi-war arf!

If this blog/info was created it should be updated regulary to make sense.

nothing make sense now..

It's pretty obvious to me. The blog is not there to expose ArmA to the press (ffs). It's there to provide a prequel to the campaign. That's not tortue, just a gift to the loyal fans. xmas_o.gif I doubt it will give out any info about the game itself.

So if you don't like the blog thing then just ignore it.

BIS has always been creative with communicating towards the community. No stupid/boring news reports on the website, but hidden, funny stuff like the Fun pages and this blog. The only normal thing from the last few years that I can remember are the E3 press releases and the letter to the community.

We just know the name and the shape, thats all  tounge2.gif

EDIT: Made the quote easier to understand.

If you really think that's torture then you need to get a hobby. yay.gif

What I meant was that I doubt there will be blog entries like "Today I saw a blackhawk with 2 manable machine guns" or "Today the weather was clear and the viewdistance was about 5km, it didnt kill my FPS".
