Firaxis: what would they like?

[Trifna]

Well the message goes no where when I put "Soren" as a recipient. Can you just send me some Firaxis name through the IM? Perhaps we should wait for them to announce the game though, as you say...

[Fosse]

Not a surprise. Imagine how many PMs those guys would get if they bothered to receive them. You could always throw a letter into the dark abyss of whatever e-mail address Firaxis has on their homepage.

[Trifna]

I think that this thread has better chances

Should such a thread be sticky for a while when/IF (!) we get an official anouncement? It doesn't really cost anything, except a bit of space.

I also wonder if Firaxis aren't a bit afraid to admit that the List wasn't THAT useful (because maybe they rather wished to bring their own vision of civ). It's sometimes a matter of public relations.

[DarkCloud]

no, you see. His login is Soren Johnson FIRAXIS... all the firaxis employees have logins... Dan Mahaga FIRAXIS used to post here (But I think he's left the company) and so have some others ask some of the Civ III section regulars- they can give you a list of names.

Why not post something in the C3C forum with attn:firaxis in the headline. If I were you, I would get someone they are very familiar with, a former (current) beta tester or someone similar. I can think of a few names off the top of my head that would draw their attention (no offense intended for the fine people here of course )

[POTUS]

I think that could work.

[Trifna]

asleepathewheel: Well just give me the names and so on. I already have an all-made message for Firaxis. I just wonder if we should wait an official anuncement, since maybe Firaxis just CAN'T answer in the meantime.

[asleepathewheel]

I've sent you a pm.

Good luck in your endeavors, I hope that you aren't terribly dissapointed by lack of communication with firaxis.

[DarkCloud]

Well, they DO visit the forums here

Jeff Morris_FIRAXIS comes by every so often at the Civ III secton, IF I remember correctly

even though they get flamed from time to time for putting out an inferior product

[Trifna]

Well I'll wait for an official announcement and then just send a short message proposing them to say what they'd prefer.

PS: Thx for the PM :P

[DarkCloud]

That's probably the best solution
