UK - Project Reality LAN 2008

[R-DEV]UK_Force · 05-09-2008, 11:26 AM

I need some feedback on a new concept I am thinking about, and wether its worthwhile to set up.

I have been approached over the last month by a reputable LAN Party Organiser, and it got me thinking about the possiblity of the following.

A Large Scale PR LAN in the UK.
Friday Morning - Sunday Afternoon, organised by a Pro LAN Company, but soley for Project Reality Matches, with maybe one other game - TBC.

On site Bar, Camping Area etc, normal LAN set up tbh

I am also in Discussion with the Army Recruiting Teams who could bring there "Display Team" up, for the weekend.

I have also had an email form John Goddard, the PR Manager for EA Games, who has shown an intrest in Project Reality, which got me thinking about contacting other firms, which I have started to email.

This all depends on the "real" interest form the PR community though

To that end can you please give me some "genuine" feedback on wether you would attend or not ...... dont say yes if you are not committed though.

Looking at sometime in August/September (Hard to pin a date down this early)

It will also be somewhere in the Middle of the UK if possible.

To make it worthwhile it would need around 100 people or more ....... thats my concern

Great vid Glimmerman!

@Maxfragg, perhaps there should be a medal handed out to the person who travels the furthest to be there!
