I've been trying. I'd suggest making a full article about it on the SimHQ front page. This way we can reference to it when posting it elsewhere... seems like a good idea. Might as well have SimHQ be the first site to make an article on it.

This is what Ive been looking/waiting for, I used to love the old R6 games .

I watched the MOH:warfighter MP video and its still quickscoping snipers and run n gun BS .

This is on the unreal 3 engine? looks great!

I told 3 of my old ghost recon pals about this, I think PC gaming is in for a great renaissance thanks to kickstarter!

I pledged the Vet Edition.

If it works and since I don't like BBQ and don't drink alcohol, the game better be very Tactical or else...

Will pledge soon.

Pledge today knucklehead. And tell your friends.

Once I have the money I will. I pledged and spread the word for takedown.

I agree there, some nice titles being put out. But we only have $33,000 with only 26 days left. We still have roughly $380,000 to go. Keep letting others know and reply to threads listed here:

If you know anyone who runs game reviews/whatever on Youtube, Twitter, websites, blogs, I would suggest asking them to write an article or two on the front page to gather some interest.

It's not the game or the idea about the game. Real Tactical Gamers are a dying breed!

Very true. We've had ArmA 1/2 and AA3 released since 2005/6 (SWAT 4, RO1). AA3 was and is very buggy. Which leaves us with only one series in the past 7 or so years for our realistic and tactical shooter needs.

Well Doug got it on the front page for us... seriously... I will be PISSED if Ground Branch falls flat... all these other stupid games can collect a half of a mil in days, and we can't... the tactical community/gamers will piss me off if we fail here.

Is there anything we can do?...

At least there are certainly lessons to be learned from the past how to run groups to motivate Real Tactical Gamers and discourage passing through immature players.

This is also as community members part of our responsabilities to help forward the ones that do well and ignore the ones that horse around to create a stronger, reliable group of players thus a stronger community as a whole.

We need to pave the way as leading examples to influence the willing.

Only when the community will be strong, united and able, will we have money pouring for the games we want because some people will recognise us an opportunity to make money.

Because, if today you want to make money what type of game represent a good return on investment?...

Or, all the Real young Tactical Gamers opted for signing up with the USMC!

300k in 27 days it is more than 1k/day.

I pledged vet ($500), I can't do more!...

We are part of the problem as much we are part of the solution!...If ground branch does not take off, it will be the kick up the B... and time to regroup to build something stronger without compromise!...Fight for it!

Keep the threads at the top of their respective forums, though do not spam them. Write well thought out posts with some substance... explain how you are looking forward to this game and why it is different from BF/CoD. If we gather some discussion between a lot of people others will likely read it or become interested. Seeing one or two people go back and fourth and bump the threads makes it look like no one is interested.

Also let your gaming friends know.

You also try contacting bigger game media websites (Total Biscuit's youtube for example).

We updated the KS page to be more streamlined and informative. Lot's of pretty pictures to!

Check it out and inform people.

I'm getting the feeling that some people dropped some dollars on the "Takedown" Kickstarter project and might feel overextended to "double down" (sorry for the gambling reference) on the "Ground Branch" project.

In my opinion, if you’re at all a fan of MilSims, you have no choice but to double down.

DO IT!

How do you reach that conclusion?....(not a sarcastic remark), but out of curiosity in reference to your post.

Well that is much appreciated... and very generious... much thanks, wish I could support that well.

Thanks Magnum.

You are actually in a different way and much more than $500 would buy!

We all do do what we can with what we have!

You know you have pledged enough when you almost hope it doesn't happen because you'll be charged for it

Keep up the work. Remember to reply to the following threads. Make thoughtful posts and make a discussion:
