Tiki Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Hey folks! Kray here from AskAJedi and sithwarrior.com. I just got my work schedule for March and turns out I'll be in San Francisco right at the tail end of GDC 2012... was wondering if anyone else might be around? Perhaps we could organize a fan meetup around town? Dallas Dickinson and a few other BioWare employees will be giving talks at the conference, but I'm not sure what the SWTOR presence will be. So, what's the word? Anyone going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CropKill Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I'll be attending all 5 days of GDC. Is bioware going to have a booth at the expo? Maybe we can do a meetup outside the expo or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiki Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 That's what I was thinking. Technically I'll be in the convention center at the same time, but working on a different show xD I know a few good places in Chinatown, but that's a bit of a walk. Surely there's more people than just us 2, plus my friend who lives locally =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CropKill Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 different show? is your site doing something? or are you part of a session or something? (or something different altogether?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiki Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 No no, I work conventions for a living running IT xD. The Society of Toxicology moves in the day after GDC ends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CropKill Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Well I say we should setup a meet outside the expo for any SWTOR fans. I'll be browsing through the GDC schedules tonight to setup my itinerary for next week, I'll know better then what slot would be best. We probably should NOT do it during the first two days (during the summits), nor should we do it around the keynote address (when is that?). So probably some time (lunch-ish) on Wednesday or Thursday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaimiIflya Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Just to be clear, you all know that GDC isn't a Convention, right? It's an event for Developers to mingle with Developers. Edited February 27, 2012 by NaimiIflya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CropKill Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 There are several flavors to GDC. There are the summits, the main CONVENTION sessions, the round tables, the keynote, and the expo. Several software [related] companies have booths at the expo, and that is usually a good place to see other [developers or fans]. The expo pass is cheap, and many people get that. But we could just meet outside the expo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know more than a few game developers who play TOR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CropKill Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I'm rather surprised more devs haven't chimed in... Maybe nobody can afford to go to GDC anymore, haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
