Pirating a game and posting impressions before the release date / embargo lifts

Cmon nikoshumi bro leave it. Don't take personally. I am pretty sure you and ambar can be friends. I disagreed with him more than anyone here ( I think) just check movie thread :P

superman sucks and srk is not bad and talaash sucked :devil:

 

I honestly have nothing personal against him. But I still don't think he or anyone else should be posting verdicts of a game before it even launches. But hey, that's just me.

yea it's just you then bro, when the game launches, it's full of hype.

Sometimes you might buy a game purely based on the hype & the bloated review scores.

What result is that you'll have an instant dust collector at a price you could have bought 2 Anarchy Reign copies :cry:/>

If we were to go by your standards there would be no such things are trailers, pre-release gameplay footage, previews, demos or even user opinions of anything pre-launch, hilarious because everyone has an opinion about something or the other, even more so pre-release. While we're at it we might as well pack up the forums and move to North Korea.

 

The difference is that everyone has access to trailers, pre-release gameplay footage and the rest of the stuff you mentioned. Getting hold of a full game before release date? That's not as easy (unless you pirate of course). Its sad when pirates gloat about playing the game early while the rest of normal gamers wait for the release date.

Everybody pirates, please don't tell me that you guys have bought every song, app, movie and game you have ever used/seen/heard/played. This is an open forum and people are allowed to post opinions and you can even contest them, almost everyone does that, it's how you create a healthy discussion but many of you get butt hurt commonly and then proceed to Bitch/Abuse on the forums.

 

All I say is that piracy should be condemned but you cannot ban the pirates. If someone keeps bragging about it again and again I think then they should be banned.

 

TBH if a game I have been waiting for gets leaked, I WILL download it and play it.

This actually goes for a lot of other similar reactionary posts in this thread.

 

Did you guys read the OP, thread title, anyone else's posts or anything at all before you started typing that nonsense? Its like you read the first three words of the thread title and nothing else. You missed the point so widely that the point and you might as well be on different continents. On a different planet. In a different galaxy.

 

Nobody gives a sh*t if you pirate or not. This is not what the thread is about.

 

Next time, try this. Read what others write. Try to figure out what the discussion you are jumping so clumsily into with both feet (which you immediately proceed to shove into your mouth) is all about. And then try to post something.

Well I guess most have understood the REAL reason behind the creation of this thread. The only good thing that came off is that we at least have a rule against revealing gameplay stuff before release and one flaw on IVG has been patched.

 

Anyways, can some one please update Forum Rules with whatever has been finalized here? Because still there are some confusions like:

 

1. We can post impressions etc if we post them in a spoiler and warn them before hand. Right? This has to be done by legit reviewers as well.

2. Can we post impressions of demos before release date?

3. What about movies/shows/music/phone apps? No rule around that? I frankly dont care about rule regarding that, because I am 101% sure that every one on this forum has got at least one thing illegally. So since this forum is about "games", we can choose to ignore that.

Dabe dabe paaon se

Aaye haule haule zindagi

Hothon pe kundi chadha ke

Hum taale laga ke chal

Gumsum tarane chupke chupke gaayein

Aadhi aadhi baant le

Aaja dil ki ye zameen

Thoda sa tera sa hoga

Thoda mera bhi hoga apna ye aashiyan

^^ if the demo is priced, and you pirate it, put your review of the "demo" in spoiler tags .... if its released in movie discs, and you pirate that movie disc, then again, post your review in spoiler tags .... capiche ?

^That spoiler tag thingy is still not confirmed. Sam says it is alright, but Athek here says he will ban. Ideally, Sam is Root Admin so his decisions override that of mods and admins, but you never know.

Just to put my two cents into the mix.

 

If people want to pirate games, that's fine. Just don't be obnoxious about it, since it can get pretty infuriating for those who have paid for the game and are waiting patiently for it. If certain members are on the fence about a game and wish to make up their minds with the help of those already playing that very same game, stick to PMs for that sort of information.

 

And like someone said, reviewers aren't really allowed to talk about the game before the embargo lifts, so even if you got the copy through legit means, keep it to yourself. I personally have slipped up a few times, but now I make sure my enthusiasm doesn't get the best of me.

If you're going to post game impressions of a game that is yet to be released, they must be posted in spoiler tags and before the tag there must be a clear warning that the spoiler contains gameplay impressions.

If a game or demo is officially released anywhere in the world and in any form, impressions from that may be posted openly.

 

Also, to known pirates like Dinjo, Ambar and Zodak, if you brag directly or indirectly about the fact that you pirate games, you will be permanantly banned. That includes smartass comments that dont directly reference piracy. We know when we see them.

For the record, I have never bragged about pirating games. Also, I usually buy almost all games I like.

This is the most important part. Thanks.
