yeah, nothing beats chasing down and ememy then they "Bleed Out" in front of you...

So Conduit didn't break the NPD Top 10 for June. Though the lowest number was PS3 Prototype @ 192k. Conduit wasn't expected to break 200k so then it's actually not surprising.

I wonder how far down from that they are. VGCharts is claiming 160k for American sales so far. Might be pretty close to accurate this time.

It should be noted that The Conduit was only out for about a week when these numbers were taken. I think we'll get a more accurate look at the game's sales when the July NPDs are released.

If you look at the sales it wasn't a blockbuster unit moving month anyway, and some of those games have been out for close to a month like Prototype.

If they are good Sega will volunteer that information. If they are terrible they will release a Press Release indirectly blaming Nintendo.

Just finished playing my first couple of matches online and, wow, it was terrible. Once I finish the single player it looks like this game won't be getting much play. Sad.

*sigh* Looks like I'll be getting back to the Conduit a lot sooner than I anticipated, as my PS3 just died tonight with a total Disc Read Error. $149 to get the damn thing repaired, and it's for what apparently is a software issue...not a hardware issue.

BwrJim! · « **Reply #2258 on:** July 16, 2009, 11:46:40 PM »

bummer... (about the conduit online experience) were you with friends or worldwide?

as for the ps3 issue, if its a software issue, you might want to check your license for the system, sony may be directly responible for it and you might be able to press them..

Considering my PS3 is a refurbashed model I bought off a 3rd party site 4 months ago, I think it's safe to say that Sony's clear of any responsibilities for it still working...unfortunately, my warantee with that seller has long since expired. Besides, I've been concerned with the Blu-Ray reader for quite a while now, as it's had hiccups in reading discs before but they always went away and were never this bad.

Lag is hacking the game!

I had one guy who I was shooting with the shotty, then he went through the wall and disappeared! Didn't pursue, but he didn't get dropped either...

Yeah, that's a lag thing. I see it from time to time. The model is trying to catch up to where the game is saying it is.

Shocking...

The source.

The in depthinterview.

I didn't want to post that because it might encourage people to follow that guys lead.

Stratos · « **Reply #2264 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:07:44 AM »

A very neat read there, Dj, thanks.
I like good hackers. So the spawning issues were being caused by hackers. Interesting.

What do you mean?

Hax0rs are among us at the NWR.

Stratos · « **Reply #2266 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:10:21 AM »

So Maxi doesn't want there to be more good hackers? Are you saying you're a bad hacker, Maxi?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #2267 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:24:20 AM »

Don't be silly Stratos. I have never and will never be a hacker.

I was saying that people might try to find a way around what this guy is doing if this info got out.

While I agree with what did at the start I think he should of just went to HVS and Nintendo with his findings so it could be resolved without letting nefarious people find out about it.

Stratos · « **Reply #2268 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:26:09 AM »

Pah, people like that can and will find the info they need either way. I'm sure they know how to do a google search.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #2269 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:29:10 AM »

But if this guy went and just went to HVS and Nintendo there wouldn't be anything on the net to find.

Stratos · « **Reply #2270 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:32:28 AM »

Like I said, they would find it anyway. How do you think the homebrew community started? Plus people were hacking Conduit before he came out with this. Hackers can just gut the game/system and find what they want.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #2271 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:40:14 AM »

I hope Nintendo and HVS get rid of all the hackers. It makes me upset these people do this stuff in games. Why the heck do these people do this stuff. It gets me riled up thinking about it.

I don't feel like discusing this anymore.

Stratos · « **Reply #2272 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:42:10 AM »

...
Then let's talk about sales! What are everyone's predictions for July sales and end of year sales.You think Christmas will boost it or will it even survive to Christmas?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #2273 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:47:05 AM »

I think it will be 250k at the end of July.

End of the year I think it will cross 1 million.

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #2274 on:** July 17, 2009, 03:58:13 AM »

I think it will sell 1 copy total.
