Went to a convention. Too some notes during the Gaia panel like a good little geek.
Anticipated Updates
1) We can anticipate another item update based on a known American TV show (another partner CI/RIG thing).
2) They are adding Friends Chat into Towns
3) Summer event will test out a new feature people have been wanting for a long time. If we like it during the summer event, they'll forward production on it. Virtual Piggy will have an item linked to the Summer event.
4) They will add servers to Rally, in a different but similar way (aka they're adding servers to Rally but it probably won't look the same way server-choosing used to look).
5) They are developing 2 new games:
a) multi-player strategy game, competing with an opponent to destroy opponent's units (lol vague) - will be for facebook & iOS
b) ? did not catch or DJ did not mention
6) They are in the middle of finalizing negotiations for Gaia's board game. Kickstarter page will determine if production goals are met (prob via pledges to buy the game). DJ was unsure if he was allowed to talk about the theme of the game so I won't mention it here. But yeah. It's an actual, physical board game you'd be able to purchase and play with your friends/family. DJ was asking people how much people would pay for a board game. Thought I'd make a poll. biggrin So answer the poll!
Misc.
1) Mystery of the empty Partner forum section explained:
New section was to host forums for other companies. Gaia was originally going to host for a company but they backed out, which is why it's been empty for so long. Gist of it is that a company lets Gaia host their official forums on Gaia, and Gaia will do everything else for free. So if you know of any companies or businesses out there who don't have message boards/forums but would like one hosted for free (and are pg-13)....let them know about Gaia ;D
2) It takes a long a** time to create those partner RIG/CI item updates. Like 8+ mo.
It looks like he's on a campaign!
SOOOooOOOooooOOoooooooo....
The thing I'm most interested in is the Summer event thing. What do you think the new feature they're testing out during the Summer Event is going to be? I can't really think of things people have been wanting for a long time except PvP games (for zOMG).
Also hypothetically speaking, if you could move an entire forum from a different website onto Gaia, which website/forum/fandom would it be? Do you know of any websites/companies that don't have forums but you'd love to see Gaia host forums for?
For me I'd love to move Kshownow's forum over here...but they have an 18+ section so...never gonna happen lol.
Thread music
in b4 the mpreg jokes. watch for the pepsi endorsements lol. it's not even subtle.
Yeah , i was going to mention the pvp for zomg too. lol !
I wonder what show they are going to promote? Breaking Bad ?? If they do partner up why not something from SyFy?? or History channel?
Or how about more Funimation? Funimation is coming out with all the hot new anime anyways.
If they do make a new rally. I hope they actually make a raceing game out of it. I mean come on the previous racing game....well it got kinda lame quick.
BTW, i had seen that vid before in another forum don't remember where... Did see Pepsi logo.
Also , that bra seems to be very popular.
EDIT: maybe they'll fix the pvp in Moga. Luv the music of that game , but it's laggier than zomg.
Long-wanted features...hmm...marriage system comes to mind since there was a topic on that recently. It would make more sense to introduce that for Valentine's if ever, though.

Long live zomg !
yeah. there are like 100s of popular american tv shows out there. i'm not much into anime anymore though so i like that they found an american tv show sponsor/partner.
they're not making a new rally, just adding servers to it. like, if you wanted to meet your friend at a specific spot you would be able to direct them to that spot/room.
was it in SF? xd I posted the video there too. lol. it still fascinates me.

I think it might have been. Me i think i will always love anime. I mean it just gives itself to all genres. So whatever show they partner up with will get the anime treatment once it becomes item. lol. They should think about partnering up with the Discovery channel. They could do Mythbuster items. Or any of the recent HD shows. Unless it's to graphic . idk.
