Deus Ex Alpha • View topic - My dream came true: Eidos UK contacted me

by **Tonnochi** » Thu Nov 29, 07 11:06 pm

They contacted me through YouTube and asked me to add them to have a chat, and they even watched my video. This is THE dream come true. I'm going to add them now.

WTF? Why over that video? lol.

by **Kaiden** » Thu Nov 29, 07 11:53 pm

What video? Maybe it's to discuss law infringements. :wink:

by **Allan** » Thu Nov 29, 07 11:56 pm

The video where he does an analysis on the trailer, methinks.

I think it might be also. I know it isn't anything good! I can't come up with any scenario where they say you did anything good, but we will see.

by **Tonnochi** » Fri Nov 30, 07 1:04 am

Thanks...

by **VodunLoas** » Fri Nov 30, 07 2:14 am

I am not saying what you did overall was bad, what I am saying is Eidos trying to contact you about it doesn't look good. I can't quite understand what they would say to you if it wasn't about any infringement. Sorry, for the way I said that.

It's true mate, though it sucks if it is concerning copyright infringement... However, loads of other sites used it (even this website has the trailer on it!) so them targeting only you is fairly... odd. It could be fake, you never know.

Probably would've been best to make the video and upload it here for peeps to download lol. I know I would've.

by **Tonnochi** » Fri Nov 30, 07 3:16 am

I don't think they're contacting me about copyright infringement. He complemented me on my work and seemed to exclaim no hostility. I think he was genuine.

by **Mr. Tastix** » Fri Nov 30, 07 3:19 am

Hmm... could be your lucky day you SOB lol.

by **Tonnochi** » Fri Nov 30, 07 3:20 am

Oh shit.

Take a look at this channel:

Now take a look at the channel the message was sent from;

http://www.youtube.com/user/EidosVideos

I hope it is genuine, who the hell would stomp me like that?

by **Mr. Tastix** » Fri Nov 30, 07 3:28 am

The question is not "who" but "why?"

by **Tonnochi** » Fri Nov 30, 07 3:38 am

Have any of you ever seen the movie "A Scanner Darkly"? They come home and a joint is in there ash tray, and because of their heightened paranoia, they go as far as thinking of leaving the country, when Bob's girlfriend comes out of the hall and explains that it was hers.

We're too paranoid.

JC was paranoid and look where it got him... to godliness!!!

JC was also a bunch of small pixals running around on a monitor... everything he did was pre-planned. :roll:

Invite them here, and maybe they will see that DX still has a fairly decent community. Just before we invite them we must lock away Jay, Alex and Kaiden.

by **Tonnochi** » Sat Dec 01, 07 9:36 pm

Kaiden and Jay already asked me, I am delivering them a strong recommendation that Eidos and its partners keep a constant presence here.

by **Psykorgasm** » Sat Dec 01, 07 10:27 pm

Sounds good. And well done for the quality vid.

by **Siva** » Sat Dec 01, 07 11:05 pm

Holy penis, what a scoop

by **kBo** » Sun Dec 02, 07 12:57 am

Ask them if it's possible to record the "chat" if it happens and post it on YouTube for the benefit of the masses.

by **Kaiden** » Sun Dec 02, 07 1:30 am

Lock US away!? We're moderating DX3 like 24/7 atm, so keep your spam out!

As of the release of the Deus Ex 3 news, we have a new policy, especially for this forum. This forum is 100% seriousness.

You can't moderate DX3 considering you don't own the rights to it nor does it exist yet. I do have to say though, you do a better job at moderating than some other forums I've seen...
