TotalAA should come back for AA3

[thejeran]

Well as all of you know (Probably not) AA3 comes out on June 17th. 15 days. And there used to be a TotalAA but there really wasn't much going on with the old 2.x so it died off. The new AA3 uses the Unreal Engine (Familiar) Steam (Familiar) Ingame-Voice (familiar) and its badass. So there is no reason for this to be a very popular game this summer. It is free so theres nothing to stop people from DLing it and since (unless the devs are lying) it's going to be a great game TGN should watch it... closely.

Re: TotalAA should come back for AA3

If there happens to be a massive influx of AA3 discussions and people playing the game, then maybe. There's no point opening a new section if we're going to have a lot of trouble drawing people in.

Ok then the Half-Life and Off-Topic sections are an exception.

I think even the Tech Center has had more posts recently than COD. In one topic in the COD area, 300+ people have viewed it since the last post over 24 hours ago, no one has replied.

Thing is that once you start a new section, you don't want to remove it in the first place, even if it has few active members. The reason the current game sections are up because they had a lot of activity in the past/has a lot of things to come.

Total MoH would seem rather dead but since there's a new MoH game coming, we keep the section for that game, because there could be news coming everyday and very likely that game is going to be something completely new which potentially could give a lot of traffic in the future.

Total FFoW was up because there was lots of activity in the forums before it was released, many of the BF folks were really looking forward to it, but when it flopped the community went back to what they were doing before. There never really was much time for the forums to build up - and no news of a new game was coming - so the site was closed.

Also, every game section is like a big database for information. Take a look at the Crysis section - far from dead but most people just post in the Picture of the day threads. Still, there's a lot of viewers, usually it stays in the 60's - why is that? Most regulars here have stopped playing the game, but other random people that is looking for answers to their questions looks around, and maybe even finds answers and decides to stick around. If you search google for the answer why your palm trees looks like crap in Crysis, it might redirect you to Total Crysis - that is some desired extra traffic.

Not to mention Crysis 2 is in development - yumm.

^COH section was closed a few months before COH:Tales of Valor was released.

There wasn't much discussion in the forums about ToV at all, it just seemed to fade away... Granted, there was a bit of activity, but it wasn't much and there were no news of a follow-up game that could spark up the section again.

But I don't personally know all the reasons why a few sections have been closed over time... pm spawn or someone else if you really need to know.
