PC piracy is a 'huge concern' warns Red Alert 3 dev - briefly
(hx) 12:03 AM CET - Nov,06 2008 - Post a comment / read (4)
VideoGamer.com has published an excerpt from an upcoming interview with Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 producer David Silverman who also works as a presenter for C&C TV. He said that "In all honesty piracy is a huge concern. Luckily people haven't figured out an easy way to pirate on consoles, otherwise you'd be telling me, 'oh, the console market's dying!'. It's a big problem and it's hard because you've got people like Greg (Black, lead balance designer) and a lot of guys on the development team who have been spending countless hours and someone just goes to download on a torrent site and they get the game. It's an unfortunate likelihood and it's one of the penalties that broadband came out. But unlike the music industry which went about it in an interesting way, we're trying some new things and I think we'll be productive in the years to come."

Silverman, however, believes that the PC gaming industry can tackle the problem of piracy by taking a different approach. He said: "Things like digital distribution, things like doing micro-transactions, things like that really find a way to get people involved and then also keep them interested. It's also a challenging thing on our end to make the game more engaging to people. If you give people a reason to buy the game they'll buy it. It's what happens. I use the music analogy again. If I'm an artist and I have an album with 14 songs and only two of them are good, then my album is probably getting stolen, but if every one of the 14 songs is awesome and you keep releasing maybe a new song or what not for people who bought it, I guarantee people will be buying my album. So it's just a different approach and a different way in how we have to look at it in the future."

While the PC version of RTS Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 was released on last Friday, the Xbox 360 version won't be out until November 14. A PS3 version is currently in the works but without a release date.

imho strategy games need a good multiplayer component.
people who want to play these games online will buy them anyway. because you can't play online with the pirated version.

if nobody buys this game maybe it's because the game sucks? C&C has been the same for the last 5000 years and I personally have -1 interest in the game, did not even bother to play the demo or pirate it.

What's an even a bigger concern is half ass finished games, bloated 6 Gigabyte buggy crap that would have fit on a 700MB CD 3 years ago....

What Greg needs to focus on is not to give players pink tanks, plasteline buildings, 30 fps cap, and maybe we will stop torrenting games. We torrent games because we want to "try before buy". I certanly wouldn't buy this crap. If I did - I would ask for my money back.

Keep up to standards and we will keep up to our payment. Selling games for consoles doesn't mean the game is good, it just means that you might or might have not screwed someone for their money by selling them crap.

Just because it took you 3 years to make something you could have done in 1, doesn't mean it's good or that you deserve sales. Deal with it. We are not limited to consoles and we are torrenting because we don't wont to get SCAMMED into buying a bad product for our hard earned money, and we cant rent the games because of DRM.

Developers keep kicking the ball in the wrong direction. I don't see "Witcher" selling bad, or "Dead Space" or other games that are less hyped and more quality. Starcraft 2 will sell good because it doesn't have pink tanks and it has a gamplay worthwhile , no cinematics with chicks with one eye looking in one, and the other in the other direction...Makes me puke...
