[QUOTE=Ownederd;45440439][url]https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1577656602/areal/posts[/url] hooh boy[/QUOTE] Holy hell, what are they thinking?

since they only need 163 bucks in the next 4 days it looks like it'll be funded and a lot of people out of their money, sadly

[QUOTE=Ownederd;45440439][url]https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1577656602/areal/posts[/url] hooh boy[/QUOTE] uh what

The devs donated $10,000+ to their own kickstarter with fake accounts. They're only a few hundred away from reaching their goal.

[QUOTE=zeldar;45442089]The devs donated $10,000+ to their own kickstarter with fake accounts. They're only a few hundred away from reaching their goal.[/QUOTE] Yea, they just pulled in over $20k within a few hours. Seems strange.

oh my god that "Putin" email this has to the year , no the CENTURY comedy!

[QUOTE=Mbbird;45442485][B]whoaaaa[/B] how is that not against Kickstarter terms?[/QUOTE] i'm gonna wait for further proof 'cause i don't wanna pull of a knee-jerk reaction. it's a bit weird but then again kickstarter is wildly unpredictable the only reason why i'm interested in areal is because koan (aka Alexey Sytyanov) is officially on the dev team, and he's a really talented game designer

So I finished SHoC with Old School LURK and Clear Sky with TFW and now I want to do a modded playthrough of Call of Pripyat. What are some good mods? I mostly would like to have a lot more guns modded into the game. Any thoughts on Arsenal Overhaul? What about "I Work Alone", Swartz mod, or Shoker Weapons? Any other suggestions?

I'm looking at it's ModDB and it doesn't seem to be telling me much.

So Areal has their 50k ATM. I feel bad for those people who backed the project. If people would just pull their money from it before Thursday.

Well, I suppose we will see what happens come Winter 2014. 50k USD to UAH is 582,699.85 UAH, so.. I mean maybe there is something to this, maybe they will take that 50k and get it in UAH, then they would have more than enough for the things needed in their country, but the release date is so soon, not to mention all the unity BS and stolen "alpha" screens. Good chance that this is a scam and they were successful. -snip-

I'd just like to point out that, donating the rest of the money themselves makes sense. I don't know how much they needed, but if they needed 20k to fund it, that means 30k was donated by not them and if they donate the rest themselves they still get 30k and the 20k they gave themselves.

That's why it's sketchy and seemingly against the fundamental concept Kickstarter is built on?

[QUOTE=Ownederd;45442538]the only reason why i'm interested in areal is because koan (aka Alexey Sytyanov) is officially on the dev team, and he's a really talented game designer[/QUOTE] Yeah, I don't see anything in Areal yet that would make me back it, but I'd also be against judging it too quick because the brilliance of Areal(if it aims to be like S.T.A.L.K.E.R.) will be hidden in what the gameplay is going to be like and not the external factors. If they have talented game designers on their team, the outcome of the product might actually be relatively swell. [QUOTE=Kirovich;45444258]but the release date is so soon[/QUOTE] Yeah, unfortunately that makes it really sketchy.

I am Vladimir Putin and I can confirm that West Games is changing the title from AREAL to VERYREAL

no i'm from fsb, i'll let you in on a little secret: AREAL is actually radioactive cereal in a game box

Should have been SURREAL instead.

Whoa ... 10k in 2 days ... that's pretty damn obvious.

Guys, the Areal devs posted an update with personal information of backers they considered to be trolls. [url]https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1577656602/areal/posts/920631[/url] [t]http://i.imgur.com/Zfuuzrx.jpg[/t]

This Areal mess is getting weirder and weirder.
