But pretty much each thread gets at least looked at for material.


Good to know.

I think you guys should be happy and know that you've done something that many others said could not be done. Now that you've completed this phase, we'd like to hear whats next and maybe some clarifications on the game. Expected pc spec required to play? More than anything I would like to hear what you think is important for us to know or expect. Congratulations on a succesfull kickstarter!

Completely agree with suggestions of a cosplay by the older devs. That photo is epic and Mike Stackpole's description of the photo shoot that day on Rock, Paper, Shotgun was hilarious! A YouTube video is definitely a great idea too.

Also, if you plan on having a live q/a maybe just not a visible feed? Or some kind of filter? Some of the comments on DF's feed frankly made me cringe. People's excitement over seeing their own words appear seems to heighten the animal-brain or impair higher-functions or something. I mean I guess you could also avoid that by making sure no attractive women are present but that's not very jolly for you guys then.

If this happens, the RPG would obviously have to be Mercenaries, Spies, and Private Eyes.

We'll look at what we can do during the party a bit more but we want to try to keep it a bit lively. We might get some guest appearances too!

What time would you like to see us wrap up? The KS closes at 5am PST, which is a bit crazy for a party (not unheard of though ;)

We are thinking of having a "last day" party that ends at 12am EST (9pm PST). Doing a few hours on Monday as a thank you to everyone. Do you like this time or is there another time you'd rather see?

Alcohol! works well for this.

I'm actually up and usually on the computer at that time so I say 5am!

+1; Awesome suggestion. I'd enjoy watching this very much. However, it should take a back seat to more relevant issues, such as a Q&A session with the assembled team. Nevertheless, if time permits, it'd be fun seeing them play a few unique Wasteland segments on an Apple II/C64/IBM PC. Brian Fargo vs. Faran Brygo FTW!

+1; Seconded. Not only for fans unable to view the live stream but also for posterity. It is, after all, a historic event.

IF they do, in fact, sit around playing a game of Wasteland, what I would like to see are comments like, "That aspect right there is something that we definitely want to carry over to WL2," or "That feature will be updated so it looks more like _______," or "You can expect to encounter that character in your travels", etc.

^ An elegant and viable solution for mixing business with pleasure under posed time constraints. Panel questions answered via gameplay comments is a bright idea well worth considering.

A drunken Q & A session! :D

Have the team take LIVE questions from the viewers! I know there's a program for it... I forget which, but Blizzard used it to host a WoW themed Q and A session a few months ago. Basically it allows you to filter out what the audience says, and answer questions without having to worry about dozens of people posting stuff at once. You choose whose question is displayed, then you answer it.
