Was there much publicity for this game?

I live in london, and have only seen ad's for this on the web and on the syfy channel (syfy only advertise the show actually) But if its getting exposure in the US then np, if EU server pop is too low then we can just jump on a us one.

Kotaku has been neglecting to cover the game... which is weird cause they normally cover everything since there an hourly news site

i dont expect the actors to be hitting any major talk shows untill the second episodes rating numbers are out. if the first episode has good numbers and the second has better, they have a hit and the actors will start showing up everywhere.

personaly i dont like it when they try to over hype stuff, it generaly a bad thing.

Well, they have two pretty major youtubers promoting the game.

I think this game is great loved the beta and I'm eagerly waiting for the servers to go live, however, i don't see the game in many stores or some big on-line retailers

Example:
i rarely pre order on-line i usually go to the store at midnight well whilst looking this game up on a site i know most people in the uk use Play.com it was not even listed as a game

second example i went to Tescos (like walmart) and it wasn't there or on the top games to pre order chart i mean even GTA 5 was on it and that's coming out in September

so im wondering how much backing or money went into getting the games name out there cause a big MMO coming out on 3 different formats you would think more people would be pushing it to the public.

Whats it like in America or rest of Europe?
is anyone else seeing the same sort of scenarios?

Dont think they have had any publicity in Scandinavia, could been at the gathering, 5-6K people playing games at one location. A big stunt here would get them a lot of publicity in Norway + some in Sweden, Denmark and other EU countries. Events are live streamed and it ends the day before the release (tomorrow), to bad they didnt do anything to get pr here.

I have seen many ads on various TV channels, especially when I use my cable company's On Demand option, as well as the internet (and not just gaming websites), and even ads at movie theaters as well.

I live in the uk and the first I heard of it was when a friend told me on facebook.. they could have done better I would say.

In the Netherlands i see no advertisement some big game sellers claim not even heard of the game.
In the States the hype with the show did not got across the sea it seams

The fact there is NO YOU TUBE reviewer saying any about the game is a PR disaster .
Could someone wake up this aint the 90"s !!!!!!!!!!
People rather have raw data than them sell out websites.
They promote games but could as easy promo dogfood , condoms or what ever

Getting your business target means you fail to think big...

Edit . Not enough You Tubers , with all respect to others i mean the big ones most people follow.
You can dislike them but they have direct contact to Gamers .
Don't fear what you can't control , Sony does understand that now and they are now rising stars in the gaming community ....

Agree, they need to advertise more, especially in Scandinavia, a lot of people play MMO games I found out about this game by an accident... (youtube, showed up in search results)

Steam is what advertised it for me, if i didn't have steam i probably wouldn't have herd of it
