leetservers Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Just saw the 2.8.4 update, the client deploy. I see that Non-Honor GSP's are offering the files. I'm curious on how much Pragmatic is paying the GSP per meg? =bobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonF Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Well, It is advertising to them. They host the files and AA puts their company's name on their site giving them exposure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SickPuppy Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 You would think that Deploy providers would get some kind of discount rate on Honor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamnp Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 If you really think about it logically here though, how many providers do you think they can garner freely just with the exposure...Why would they pay or provide discounts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VicToMeyeZR Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 We have had over 10k downloads of our deploy client that has OUR logo on it. That exposure is worth the free server for downloads for this. I'm not complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leetservers Posted October 20, 2008 Author Share Posted October 20, 2008 10K worth of downloads on your dime, for advertising a free game, how hard is Pragmatic laughing. =Bobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VicToMeyeZR Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Technically its not really a free game. Not many people want to play on non-honor servers, so that's not free. And not just any joe GSP can provide honor servers. Its not like EA, where if you............................. well, just anyone can't provide honor servers.

leetservers Posted October 21, 2008 Author Share Posted October 21, 2008 Anyone with a pulse can host Honor as long as you pay thru the nose. -Bobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SickPuppy Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Deploy seems to be a well disguised scam. The small amount of exposure you get does not make up for the resources used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECF Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 To provide bandwidth and server resources for a game that you do not host seems kinda silly to me. Anyone downloading the client isn't looking for a non-honor server, they are looking for an honor server, and most likely already have one. If you don't provide honor servers then why would you waste that bandwidth on people that could care less about your services? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, 95% of the people who download from your site will already have an Honor server and the other 5% will never visit your site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
