Asked a while ago on discord 'any confirmation if Intrepid will attend Gamescom 2019 ?'
Got as answer from Steven 'Not yet, but we intend to give you ample notice.'
I just hope IS tell us asap.. got my tickets anyway but i know alot of ppl are doubting to go based on if IS will be there. letting us know at least a few weeks in advance would be nice because getting pre-order tickets will be hard then

I would hope for at least a month prior. I am going to gamescom regardless, but if people are attending only for Ashes, knowing in advance would be awesome

I thought Steven said they would not be attending any of the game conventions as it took too many people out of development to warrant attending. I could imagine travelling to Europe from the west coast of America is one hell of a journey to make.

True that :P For a game who's advertisement depends greatly on the community they should care more about something this important. But il just tell irl friends that got intrested in AoC (and would only visit Gamescom to see Ashes!) that they can take a gamble and buy a Gamescom ticket now OR stay home and dont waste money.

Wasn't it just one specific convention? I believe it was this years Pax east

@branegames Maybe

I believe the question was specific to PAX East, but he answered in general terms stating conventions were not on the radar currently due to time costs to the development team that he wanted to concentrate on development.

That's fair enough, but if they want to be successful they also need to do advertising and PR for the game (something that is rather lacking right now). Conventions are one of the best ways to get the word out about your game. Yes they had a good showing at PAX last year but with the sheer amount of games released since then I doubt many people remember Ashes of Creation.

Some sort of "official" yea/nay would be appreciated. As was earlier mentioned, pre-ordering tickets can be an issue.. along with travel plans, overnight stays and the like.

Regardless of the decision, sooner is better than later (and hopefully it has nothing to do with the euro region falling under my.com or something).

So zero response. Wonderful.

you sound surprised.

chylok

Well, I am. The question is one that, potentially, affects community plans.. not just a single person. It is also a question that was asked over a month ago.

1. they don't care much about the EU (looks at my.com)
2. they disclike the forums

Wololo

a simple 'no' would mean so much

Didn't someone ask a little while back, where they said it would take to much time out of their schedule. But that might have been some other event
