Shadowrun Shadowrun: Hong Kong Pre-Release Discussion [GO TO NEW THREAD]

[twincast]

The last 24h rush is a psychological certainty. There are people who do things they need to do immediately, there are people who wait for some time, and people who postpone everything until the very deadline and then they rush panically to do things they could have done months ago. It's the same with a kickstarter.

Weirdly enough, my KS pledging behavior is generally the opposite of my usual procrastinating self.

 

[Jedi Master Radek]

Final surge has already begun. Day hasn't ended yet,but it is already the best day since 28 January. My older estimation was 1,5 milion. I lower it now to 1,2 milion.

 

[ZoddGuts]

Wonder if they'll put another stretch goal, a 1.2 million is doable.

 

[Zorba the Hutt]

I vote for Ulminati's mission as the 1.2mil stretch goal.

I am one of those.

 

[Jedi Master Radek]

Are you doubting I am speaking about anybody other than me?

 

[Onholyservicebound]

There's also the bystander effect, "Pretty sure it'll get funded and reach it's goals without my help."
What does one pledge matter?
Harder to justify the closer the deadline.

Did SR:HK get mentioned somewhere or something? $30k already today and it's not like people have started receiving their 48H email notifications yet.

 

[Ellef]

Did a google search for the last 24 hours, there's a bunch of game sites mentioning it nearing completion, that's about it.

yeah, as a valentines day special :D

Did SR:HK get mentioned somewhere or something? $30k already today and it's not like people have started receiving their 48H email notifications yet.

It was featured on the KS front page.

 

[Infinitron]

Kickstarters always start picking up a few days before ending, even before the email notification. Not everybody needs that email to remind them. Some of them are people who already pledged but choose to increase their pledge near the end.

 

[Darth Roxor]

 

[naossano]

The number of yesterday backers is also quite impressive.
Almost 800 backers, it is more than any day, except the first three... And there is three days left...

[LeStryfe79]

Wonder what the new goal for the final day will be. I'd like to see a slightly bigger mini campaign with the ability to port high karma characters from any previous campaign.

 

[ZoddGuts]

Making the mini campaign a bit bigger would be fine. Hopefully the next stretch goal is at 1.2/1.25 because no way their reaching 1.5 million.

 

[Infinitron]

I don't know why you are assuming there will be another stretch goal.

 

[Diablo169]

I think they will be happy with 1 million, anything above is just the cherry on top.

 

[Transfiguring Roar]

People will throw a fit if there isn't another stretch goal.

 

[Ellef]

Another tier for polish or bigger everything would be good. Anything that makes people pledge more is a good thing for the game (excluding any co-op ideas!)

 

[getter77]

General polish across the lot of it or something relatively "straightforward" like just more musical tracks are about all that would make any sense barring some sort of truly massive surge right at the end.
