Random thought.

Wouldn't AO TV commercials be great? I mean, just imagine this...

Setting: An elementary school classroom, full of kids.

Teacher: Very good Alice; a lawyer is a fine choice. *turns to another kid* So, Billy, what profession do you want to be when you grow up?

Billy(deep in thought for a few seconds): I want to be an Enforcer.

Cue a few scenes of a bigass Atrox beating the living fuck out of stuff with a beam.

Announcer: Anarchy Online. What do you want to be?

[Xtrophic]

*rofl* that is hilarious!

If you make this commercial I will put it up on the GSP site

[Tir_McDohl]

If only I *could* make something like that. Seems I left all my tradeskills back in UO. *cough*

Dunno...maybe if I do something else...maybe it's possible, heh.

Easy really a digital cam, record a bunch of young folks in a classromn with a older person as teacher. get Wulfven or Tarryk do do the voiceover

Then grab some ingame stuff of a enforcer

Clip it all together. slap the ao/funcom logo at end of it.
(and some cool music AO theme? while seeing enforcer and end)

Then send the videoclip to FC

[Ms.Maul]

Oooh...what if you did one for each profession?!

Edit: To elaborate:

Teacher: What do you want to be <name>?

<name>: I wanna be a Fixer...

<cue ingame footage of Fixer>

<name continues>: And I want to hack people's insurance and kill them so they won't come back. Ooh, and I'll get to run fast everywhere with a big submachine gun. I get to smuggle stims and just stand around and look cool.

<fixer footage ends; view of everyone staring all freaked out and everything>

[Mummu]

i m not sure i wanna see the one for engis.

[Metalynx]

<camera Pans back to a child in a classroom giving a roeport>

"what I want to be when I grow up"

"What I want to be is a Engineer. They do all sorts of Kool stuff and they make big roboits who smash things and go kill things and stuff!"

<shift to a scene of A Slayer RObot on the rampage..running away from the child then suddnely back in the room, Suddenly killing the childs classmates and stopping to Hump a doorway>

"And when I become a Engineer, I can make such Uber Stuff Like weapons and armro and stuff"

<Again shift to a scene of the grown child holding a rifle, one that exploded in his hands, covering him in burn marks as he realizes he needed a part that he didnt camp for>

[Tacz]

Im frikkin 12 years old, ill get at most 45 miutes of digital movie you could use.

[Brakizz]

Run with the idea... You never know what will happen .. anyone else remember the cheesy Everquest Commercial at the begining of Fellowship Of The Rings.

[Mummu]

[Tastyvixen]

hm, think I was stuck in the popcorn line at the time...wait, ewww....I didn't miss anything if I didn't see an EQ commercial.

I just cursed!

Does anyone have a spare Slayerdroid?

But thats a good idea Tir_McDohl, I found the AO music, of course most of us have it as well, so I can foward it to you if you need it or something.

Same Scene
Teacher: What do you want to be jimmy?
Jimmy: I want to be a GIMP!

Falls Silent. Then a kid whips out a Div 9 and blows em up

[Firia]

Holy shizzle Tir! I can see that unfolding! If you or anyone else had mad skillz [to make the commercial], that'd absolutely rock to make!

I wanna see it happen!

[Mummu]

yeah, tis i wanna see too,
maybe we should edit the engi ad a little.

more like:

a big atrox enf is fighting a gigantic monster,
then his sword brokes, his eyes widen in panic, the monster grins.
....
but there in bright light u see a stiletto coming.
and an engi comes out, takes the broken sword,
repairs it, gives it the enf back and moves away in his stiletto into the sunset.

the enf takes the sword and cut the monsters head.

----

ot outpost in lush filed:
lots of scourge class slayerdroids, elite guards mech dogs......
the cam flies around the op, u see behind a tree, a stone , a bush, a hill, a dark shadow, u hear sounds of casting nanos.
u see absolutly syncron six bots running from every direction to the op, and killing everything.


that would be more like it is.....
sometimes....... atleast once per year..... decade....
