Blog Post TLOPO Beta Trailer

[Drewski0199]

Just out of curiosity, I'm seeing an ad when I view the video at :10. Does this mean tlopo has enabled youtube ads/monetization? I didn't think that was allowed, but maybe it was accidental or is something else?

Not sure. But even if that was the case, the amount of money made would be extremely small.

Oh My God! I'm so Hyped... Gonna be dead in school for a while while grinding the **** out of this. How will playtimes work, like will we be able to get anything above 3 hours? Thanks guys for all the work your doing!

Initially, same as the end of Alpha. There is a fair chance that these times will be extended to quote a Dev Stream (the July one).

We do not accept money of any kind. All costs are paid for by TLOPO staff out of pocket.

No advertisements when I watch the videos. A glitch in the system perhaps?

The main question is, why is Red seeing that at all? We already know TLOPO does not accept money of any kind.

My reply was meant to iterate that it was on accident. I don't know enough about YouTube to comment any further. Just wanted to make sure everyone is aware that our stance on donations and making a profit has not changed.

I'm sure @Mike Wass can take a quick peek and ensure that it is turned off, though I don't believe it was ever on when I had access.

I saw some interesting footage at the beginning of tents? I don't recognize that from the original game?

Amazing progress guys! Keep up the great work!

Such an incredible piece of work, congratulations to the TLOPO team! No words can describe my appreciation. God bless you!

Sincerely, Kyle.

Not really. Even if the video is monetized, it still should be legally fine. But if the video isn't monetized, Google likes to put ads anyway, without paying the uploader. It's not a bug, Google does this on purpose.

Thanks for posting that! That's huge news!

 

[Christopher Cannonskull]

The hype for the beta is huge especially with the new island

 

[PirateTim]

I think a trailer is a perfect way to bring interest from a wider community.

It certainly has me pumped for beta!

As you watch the video, make sure to watch it with a weather eye. There are a few... hidden surprises we dropped here and there.

OH BOY! Isla Escoyeeehaa!! I really like the "Beta quickly approaching" statement...

I dunno why this just occurred to me, but isn't the image in this spoiler a screenshot of a Jolly Roger invasion?

If ''watch with a weather eye'' is a clue, me eyes missed it. I watched and re-watched. Me eyes be old. Although it tantalized me taste buds fer the game I must've missed it. Anyway, it looks great! Put me in coach, I'm ready to play!

 

[Nighthawk1]

Woohoo all aboard the hype train
So excited that beta will soon be here

 

[PirateJasonS]

2 more observations I made in the video, not sure if they're bugs or intended:
1. The "Mastered" icon at the bottom on the rep bar can't decide whether or not it wants to stay present
2. Desolation removed 2751 points of the pirate's 2752 health. Is that accurate?
