Rocky Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Can we keep the negativity to the appropriate threads please - this is for discussion on the meaning of the new viral from Ubi. The S08 marking could be an indication that the folder is a military recruitment dossier.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traveler Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Data pull info is pretty cool. It has ticker counting repair time. I guess when complete the info will be viewable. 33 hrs and 5 min as of now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYR_32 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 My guess is this is for that new Clancy Air Combat game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brettzies Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 My guess is this is for that new Clancy Air Combat game. I would say that's a good guess. The Splinter Cell site has a peice...but it links back to the GR page. Splinter Cell debris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TelicPatriot Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 (edited) The frontpage report that "ubi_graw_onchnl" is a clue aren't right. Look at the page source...that is http://ghostrecon.us.ubi.com/flash/ubi_graw_onchnl.swf, which is just a GRAW promo piece on the page.

Iceman87 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Well the current location of those 4 diamonds (blue diamonds/GRAW), certainly look like they are on the coast of the Med. My Clancy-iest guess would be either an American or Russian satellite has crashed in either Libya, Egypt or even worse, Jerusalem. Of course these satellites have a Plutonium core, which could be used in a dirty bomb. It's a pretty crappy place to lose a bird. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYR_32 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 What is interesting is I ran across an "ad" for this on a large gaming forum. It redirects to ghostrecon.com. Kinda of strange that they would advertise a new "brand" like that. Didn't Endwar have it's own website almost immediately? Kinda weird, the recorded message's lead me to believe it's about the new brand, but having it based on GR.com is, off. *shrug* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brettzies Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 I know a lot of people aren't satisfied with the way GR has gone, myself included, but I'd still like to see the franchise continue. As for an AirCombat game, if this is it, I'm interested in that too. I actually loved AceCombat6...a little too arcade like with your hundred missles and what not, but I would love to see that done in a more realistic manner. Maybe not a sim, but just something with correct loadouts, etc. Sort of a cross. AceCombat6 was just plain fun with great looking scenery and graphics all around.

Pave Low Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 http://ghostrecon.fr.ubi.com/ It only appears on the GR site, not R6 or EndWar? It is now showing on all of the Ubi Tom Clancy sites.. http://endwargame.us.ubi.com/ http://rainbowsixgame.uk.ubi.com/ Etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brettzies Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 (edited) Seems a little premature to label this game as the TC: Air Combat game, even though the clues seem to point in that direction. The one discrepancy being that all the other sites point back to the main GR site for the most info. Unless of course: GHOST RECON: ADVANCED AIR COMBAT WARRIOR ... ...now the Ghosts can fly with their super-jet pack narcom acceleration boots!

The one discrepancy being that all the other sites point back to the main GR site for the most info. Yup, every other site brings you to GR.com for the more detailed stuff. The other Clancy game sites are showing something similar to what appeared first on GR.com. I'm curious to see if those change as well. One thing I do have to give credit to Ubi for is that they have some cool viral marketing campaigns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brettzies Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 Yeah, they definetly could change, or UBi could just be too lazy to do the thing for each of their sites, so they put it on one major and have all the others link to that. Effiecient if nothing else...but confusing for GR fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightspeed Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 (edited) BUT I have a very very good feeling about the next Ghost Recon game. I think it will be huge. on what do u base this? this is what UBI must love - we can screw these players over n over and they'll still give us more n more chances. let's churn out some more [mod edit] Do not bypass the swear filter.

RAbbi_74 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I'VE GOT IT! S08: S = SUCKFACTOR 08 is on a scale of 1-10, 1 meaning it doesn't suck at all, and 10 meaning this is a new all-time low for the bar to be set! OK, but in all seriousness, as long as it's an Ubi product you KNOW the PC folks are gonna get JUICED in favor of ... well, y'know. We've been through it three times already... I really wish I had ANYTING AT ALL positive to say about it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutlink Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 No way these things cost millions, but I hear you. At the same time...this is the entertainment industry. I love the GR games, but I can admit that their marketing (packaging, ads, etc.) has lacked pretty heavily. $8 million for a PS2 game back then, I don't think it's changed a whole lot. Rough estimate based on 20 months and 200 employees Even EAs Montreal boss says the cost of producing a game is crazy. Of course these are higher end games usually, ones that are worked on for an extended period of time and/or heavily promoted (ie Rainbow Six Vegas, GRAW 1/2, CoD4, Crysis, Unreal Tournament, Gears of War, Oblivion, and Halo all come to mind). And a little more on topic, I'm beginning to think this is another extension of Endwar. It really wouldn't make sense for them to be promoting Endwar and another Clancy title at the same time. Endwar just doesn't seem interesting to me because I have a feeling it's going to be "dumbed down" for lack of a better term. Now if they made it similar to Company of Heroes, well, that'd be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Invisible Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 (edited) The 2 videos with audio,seems to be a pilot flying and aircraft. So it is a Flying Combat Simulation. The last game(of this kind) i bought was lock ON,i think from Ubi. The buggiest game ever !!! Edit Lock On: Modern Air Combat is a popular modern fighter simulation developed by Eagle Dynamics and published by Ubisoft Release date November 20, 2003 Disadvantages The initial version of the game was flawed with many 'bugs And for Last While v1.02 of the original game is not quite as stable as v1.12b, the community has designed user-created corrections for the game, or 'tweaks', which allow the game to run in a smoother manner Yes the community gave the solution !!

WytchDokta Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 (edited) In the first video with [broken] audio, I heard the words 'in-flight personnel', or something to that extent. We might be able to determine more about it if we knew what language one of the guys in the first vid/audio is speaking. I heard something along the lines of 'missiona completta' followed by 'alpha'. As you can see, it's not a language I speak/write myself. Edited March 29, 2008 by WytchDokta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
