Any thoughts on the show?

I hear the Pilot came with the Ultimate edition and I'm looking to see what you'll thought. I realized if I'm gonna be playing the game might as well give the show a try too.

The Ultimate Edition came with the soundtrack and a 10-15 min preview of the pilot.
The pilot preview has made me even more excited for the new series. The production value was very good and the CGI looked better than most stuff I see on SyFy.

I also bought the ultimate edition and watched the sneek preview into the show. It was very well done and interested me a lot. The show looks very promising after I watched the first 15 minutes. I can't wait to see it on the 15th.

I'm wondering if they're going to add characters from the series as NPCs into the game - that would be an interesting development. Also wondering if the success or failure of events within the game will have any effect on the show as much as the show will impact the game, it's exciting either way.

@Player 1, *Maybe Spoilers* If you did the episode missions in the game at the end where Nolan takes off with the gem, I noticed in the first 15 minutes of the show that the game ties in with the show in a neat way.

[Player 1]

Hnnnnng, that makes me so much more excited!! Haven't been able to log into the game yet, just oggle the goodies and the extended trailer bonus episode spoiler DVD thing. That CG is pretty fantastic, hoping it really takes off!

I recall hearing in a developer interview that they already have a line in the show that will reference a player from the game TBD later

@Player 1, what are you doing not playing this awesome game? I would if the servers weren't down. But yeah, I would recommend doing the episode missions asap to gain some knowledge that will make sense once the show airs. When I saw the scene in the 15 minutes that referenced back to the game I was very impressed. It's not an obvious reference but if you played the missions and had the opportunity to watch the first 15 minutes it's like an, "Oh ******, that was from the damn game!", moment.

I've been trying to login from 8pm PST - 1:30am PST. No dice, hahaha!! Definitely looking forward to episode missions, would you say they could be done all in a row or is there any grinding necessary inbetween?

[Fhail]

They can easily be done all in a row. I think my brother and I finished all of the episode missions in an hour or so. The way the handled the referencing of the game was immaculate. It's not like they go to any extent to make it known that this or that is from the game, but as it flows you just notice them and in that glimpse you notice something is really familiar and then you realize it was from the game and I got to experience it with my brother which was awesome. We were watching the 15 minute sneak peek together and when the scene that referenced the game was shown we both yelled, "OH $#!T, that was from the fcking game!" at each other and from then on I was hooked and excited for the April 15th premiere of the show. The way they are doing the show and game is awesome and an experience that you don't normally get with video games and tv.
