Subject: The Webcams and their future

The Stig is dead to me
-Carrick

Ok, I sent DeeJ a message yesterday with the hope that he might start up the webcams again. At the moment they are merely a cold, dead, empty shell in the deepest corner of the website.

Here is the message:


Hey DeeJ, I'm not going to take up too much of your time here. I'd just like to put in a request, on behalf of the community (If you don't believe me I may start a petition).

I remember the days when you would load up the webcams page and see a new picture every time you visited, With a cryptic message or blatant shout out. every now and then even a clue to something mysterious, or a competition. It was part of the special connection between Bungies staff and community members.

However, as time has passed, the activity has lessened, and now we are stuck with a hard to access page of nothing more than a few Jpegs. There are a few members with a smidgen(real word!) of hope that they might return, but in case no one heeds our public cries, I direct our pleas to you.

Please see if you can return the webcams to their former glory, that we might be able to enjoy creating conspiracies and posting them in the webcams thread, and strengthen the bond between studio and community once again.

Also we will love you more, and root for the newbies in the Pentathalon.

Cheers
-DC

P.S I sure hope you read this message. Fingers crossed, I know you're a busy man.


And here is DeeJ's reply:

Webcams will be live on Friday, to cover the Pentathlon. I will see if I can sustain them after.


I think that basically sums everything up. If you have any love for the webcams, If you miss them and want them to return, speak now.

Also, what is the most memorable webcam moment you have had in the past?

Speaking of the Pentathalon, will we get to see some more tu-tu, fairy, and cosplay action?

Imagine all the info we could gather from them.

  • 01.17.2012 10:14 AM PDT

Someone should watch every second incase we get any sort of insight into their next game.

I'll try and get info out of the IT guys i'll be playing with, heres to hoping they'll be so inebriated that they don't see it coming.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

It would be cool if they are livestream for a while.

We were discussing this in the BF3 PC group and there may or may not be a live stream of us vs them. I'm not confirming anything.

Кланяються мені!

Maybe we can expect some changes to coincide with the new project. A series of riddles as hints to keep the community guessing until finally an official announcement.

I mentioned a few things about the cams to DeeJ a little while back as well.

I'd really like to see some serious revamping of the cams. They have so much potential!

  • 01.17.2012 12:45 PM PDT

I've never been around for anything regarding the webcams, so I hope this will be enjoyable.

Off-topic: If you know he's a busy man, why did you write such a verbose message? ;P

EDIT: Did someone just say the webcams might be a live stream of BF3? ewwwwwww no grose

Not true at all. In keeping with the most important conversaton on this forum currently, this was my reply:

Dear Mr. Carrick,

May I call you Darth? Or does that create confusion between you and all of the other Sith Lords? I could have sworn that there was only supposed to be two of you, but that is beside the point at hand.

Thank you for your question. I do appreciate messages from the community, even if I am unable to answer all of them. To answer yours, the webcams will be live on Friday, to cover the Pentathlon. I will see if I can sustain them after.

While I can promise nothing, your enthusiasm is duly noted and endlessly appreciated.

Respectfully yours until I am dead or you find someone better,

I expect jokes poked at my username the next time we pm.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Hello Deej,

Webcam contests are fun.

Cordially,

At least you got a response, I sent him a message about the podcasts and got a broken heart in return.

How would a webcam contest work?
