MORE ADVERTISEMENT!

But to make tournaments Nadeo will need sponsors. The sponsors are only interested in a game with many players and supporters. So putting money in advertisement is more important imo.

Exactly.

Sure they work, maybe they will bring several people in. The point is if to choose whether to spend money on tourneys or on TV ad, tourneys will work far far better.

I don't agree with this statement. Advertisement is a really good way to bring new players that didn't know the game existed. But tournaments are important to keep the player base.

The thing is we are talking about one-two TV advertisements up to for 500 000$ of money. You really think there are enough people that will get interested and buy the game to cover up that expense? For the game that doesn't provide any entertainment other than playing for skill and has no tournaments to give you more incentive to practice? Average guy will watch the ad and forget about it in a second, there is no obvious entertainment or gain for him. I myself, for example, started playing competitive FPS having a thought at the back of my mind that maybe I will become good enough to compete in tournaments. Now I don't think I will, but that is another story.

Sponsors want to see many players and want to see tournaments with many viewers first. It has to be publishers/developers investment first, it is the only way to get sponsors.

The most efficient way to bring in players, IMO, is first organize tournaments, not one, but at leat two in a year, advertise them as budget allows. But that is a risk, and since Ubi and Nadeo are quiet regarding this so far, they don't want to take the risk.

The problem is in game and platform, not in ads

There is some times, I saw a video ad on Youtube for SM. Why not redo that?

Maybe because those who can give an insight are all on vacations. I know Hylis left for vacation, he might be not back yet.

You probably dont play how much we do, and you probably don't even realize how bad the game is going and that is probably even too late even advertise or whatever. Most of players are gone after your "updates", and they won't come back..
