The
TAKEDOWN Kickstarter Page offers a few changes from when this fundraising proposal launched
earlier this month for a "Crowdsourced Hardcore Tactical Shooter." There's
an article on Kotaku explaining what's different (as we have entered an era when even crowdsourcing gets rebooted), regretting their failures at conveying why gamers should be excited about this project and picking a name that "SUCKED." In addition to the new title, the site offers new art and other resources to attempt to convey what to expect. Word is: "Will we be successful? Time will tell. We'll write a postmortem for other game developers to learn from, so no matter what we hope to make the landscape better for others. But no one will be able to say we gave up."

From the kickstarter's page:
What will the $200,000 be used for?
$200,000 will bring TAKEDOWN to Alpha. Private investors are lined up, but unsure of the market for an old-school tac shooter. A successful Kickstarter campaign will convince them that this is a viable market. Along with their investment, pre-sales of the game (A $15 Kickstarter pledge is a significant discount on the final game price) will also contribute to completion of the project. Kickstarters will have access to a closed Alpha. That's ridiculous. They want to crowdsource an AAA game? If that's the case the should be talking to a publisher because they're going to need a hell of a lot more money to produce that sort of game. Sounds like they want 200k to do a demo in hopes of securing funding. So money would be wasted on these clowns. Stay far away from them. |
