TV show and International audience among game subscribers.

What gets me is that the producers say that what happens in the game will have an effect on the tv show. How ? and would this not lead to a very uneven episode release.

Your thinking too short term, They said something along the lines that a few players who rise above all others may receive something along the lines of a mention within the show. They could include this towards the end of the season and leave it till a/or player/s have achieved something of note then could record it and add to an episode at predefined point.

They could also have a large event happen in game, record two possible episodes win/fail. Then depending on the outcome of the in game event, show which ever episode was required.

Doesn't have to be simultaneous.

Eg. there could be a broken bridge like you can see at the top of the page. Players might be tasked with fighting off enemies and reconstructing it. Some time after they've accomplished this (maybe a season later) we might see the reconstructed bridge in the TV show.

Basic assumption around the forums seems to be that on the off season things happening in the game will be mentioned during the show when it comes back on season and certain scripted events that happen during the game will afect the show based on whether or not we fail/suceed at those.

For our international fans, now would be a good time to mention that Defiance just got picked up for broadcasting in Canada.

As we grow into more regions, we'll keep you updated.
