The Secret World new ad campaign: "Buy Now for Early Access"

ZooceZooce Member Posts: 586

 

(Seen here first on mmorpg.com)

 

Funcom debuts their fresh advertising campaign aimed at enticing the customers who get excited about early access, but don't yet realize the game has been out for almost 2 months already.

 

I thought they would've instead mentioned something about the recently unveiled 3-day free trials, or rocket launchers and chainsaws.  Apparently the advertising department was lost in the layoffs?

    ooooh, I am so going to mistakenly re-buy a lifetime sub for this...............

    That's so crazy, it just might work!

    I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.

    Wow I WISH I could dual wield blades. 

    That's ok, on the AOC launcher it still wants you to register for TSW beta. Haha. 

    Both fun games I currently sub to.

    Perhaps they are going to start over ? ,,, August was just a beta that cost $15

    Maybe Funcom is planning to do the same thing SquareEnix did with FFXIV and the advertisement is for TSW 2.0?

    I saw that on the main page earlier and got a good chuckle out of it.

    Well, if you do buy now then you're getting early access, because if you bought it later then you'd be getting.. later access? Um...

    OK, so I'm probably just being picky or maybe I'm so tired my eyes aren't working right, but do her legs look a little bit messed up?  It's like everything is fine from the knee up but from the knee down it just looks....        wrong. 

     

    As for the original point of the thread, this is a conspiracy game, so maybe they are just leaking a clue to let people know that they actually haven't been playing TSW yet. As far as we know, there could actually be all sorts of hidden clues pointing to this, but nobody has figured them out yet! Maybe the game will release in a month or two and be a huge success!

    I get banned in the forums for games I love, so lets see if I do better in the forums for games I hate.

    I don't hate much, but I hate Apple© with a passion. If Steve Jobs was alive, I would punch him in the face.

    You're completely right about her feet being short below the knees. I bet she looks weird naked

    Hmm I guess they don't have the money left to redo the banners.

    And yes her legs look they got badly twisted.

    Its not like Funcom is the only company that takes time to remove ads.

    How long after Christmas do christmas commercials linger on tv and the radio?

    Calm down, people.
