why no updates

[Wolfentir]

I'll be happy to support you on Steam. Maybe post a topic on how we can do that and other ways we can help.

Cheers

But would it be possible for us players to help? I mean we could invite friends to play, but would it be possible for players to add in-game content? Sortuff like a community contest.

See, this is what I love about the Dawn of Fantasy community, everyone wants to help to make this the best game it can be.

Thanks for your support. Steam Greenlight is scheduled to begin late August. Closer to the date we'll be making forums posts to let people know about it so we'll be ready when it launches.

Once Steam Greenlight has begun, we'll get Dawn of Fantasy listed and we'll post in the forums and send out a newsletter asking everyone for their help with instructions on how to do so.

I'd love to see some user created content. Before joining Reverie I used to design custom scenarios for Age of Mythology as a hobby and I know some of the other devs made scenarios for Age of Kings amongst other games. It would be great for Dawn of Fantasy to build the same kind of scenario design and modding community.

Dawn of Fantasy comes with a powerful, yet easy to use scenario editor. I think you are right, if we can get enough people interested we should have a contest to get people to design a new town to siege or a new quest to complete perhaps with the winning scenarios added into the online game world.

awesome!if this game actually goes on steam then it will be the game we dreamed of: full of people fun and competition!i simply cant wait
Also, steam already has a program like that so if it could be possible and u would agree with it, we could use that one (Steam Workshop)

[Generation]

But Steam workshop is only for the modding community isn't it?

[OxyKnight]

I have created one scenario and its only halfway done, but is there anyway to share it? I'd like to get an opinion on how I should improve etc.

You can always Zip your .dofscn scenario file and post it on the forums (using attachment manager)

[Gruber12]

hmmm create your own scenarios.... I need undead models

Finally got update on the Steam situation. Our 'soon to be announced' new partner has a contact at Steam and I finally got a reply.
As trivial as it might sound - Steam won`t accept DoF as our Metacritic score is not only bad, but we don`t actually have enough reviews for an official score... http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/dawn-of-fantasy. And Steam will not deal with Indie PC games without a proper Metacritic score at least with 60% rating.
Right now we have 3 reviews there - all with 50%+ rating - and fairly so - these reviews date to October/November - as Dawn of Fantasy was in a really messy state back then (thanks 505).
So now we actually have a contact to get us on Steam without Greenlight, BUT - we would need to get a proper review, or two, or three first. And while there had been some really positive DoF reviews, we need someone from Metacritic official list to review the title...

Would someone reading this know someone who works at any of these reviewers?

Heh - the headaches I have to deal with

[Novakiller]

Well thats a pretty crazy position to be in, the best thing i would suggest is to get in contact with giantbomb/gamespot/IGN/1UP/ and PC Gamer mag to get your reviews up, I dont know how to go about that but im sure you do konst.

Those to me are the big hitters for reviews and meta scores that are fair and balanced, i know gamespot i believe reviewed DOF awhile back, but im sure you could probably get it re-reviewed considering the massive changes that have been made since DOF's release.. At least now you know, and we all know what the issue is, now you can at least work on getting the issue fixed so we can all enjoy our DOF on steam, which is probably going to be a massive promotion for you guys as well soon as you can get on there.
