I have no intention of making a Facebook account for myself, so sorry, I won't be visiting that page.

Shame that the facebook page hasn't been updated in a year (give or take a few days). So long infact that I seriously do hope that you can shift people over to it. And you should have been using it from the start actually in my mind.
Yes, I have already "liked it". I did it sometime last year infact if I remember correctly, but I *totally* forgot about it, because it has been that under used.
Infact, I remember asking on these forums if it was actually "official" or a fan made one, and got no response... So I just assumed it was a fan one.
Ditto. I don't want to weigh the thread down with this sentiment, but I think it's worth emphasizing that there may be a significant number of us in this boat. Whatever our individual reasons may be, it stands to reason that participation in Facebook and social media in general is not universal.
Nonetheless, I have personally told many of my friends and family of the game. I'm happy to support the cause, just not through Facebook. Sorry about that.
The decision not to use it up until this point was deliberate. As is the decision to start using it now. We've gotten the appropriate people in control - for instance, me - and if you visit now you will find it's been cleaned up a bit.
It turned out only one person had access and we had to track that person down before we could update it, so the update got uploaded to the site a few hours before I was able to get in, take down that message from Zombie man and replace it with a welcome sign and the update post.

I don't personally use Facebook either, but my BUSINESS sure as heck has a Facebook page, and I get a lot of business from it. MWM And CoT would be absolutely boogety-boogety stark raving bonkers not to utilize Facebook. It just puts the ball in your court as to whether you want to start a page or not. If not, there are plenty of other ways to support them, so no biggie.
Also, as early as they are in the development process, whatever their reasons for waiting till now, I don't see any harm done. Even if so, no use crying over spilled milk.

Unrelated to the FB deal (I'd liked the City of Titans page awhile back), the comic picture in the update shows a skyline of Titan City, which looks awesome...but....idk...maybe I'm the only one who sees it, but the two largest towers* looks eerily similar to two other large towers...might that be a liability?
*I guess the tower about 15% from the left might be taller.

The two tallest towers? The one to the left is significantly shorter than the first one.

Naturally I (finally) got rid of the of the Facebook page that I used to like MWM's page when it first appeared. I no longer use FB but I guess I can make one. Got sick of FB's screwing with the system and moved everything over to Twitter. Oh well, off to bloody FB! :p
Appreciate the extra mile

that looks to me like one building... If it is two, they are very close together...

Well said. Not to mention there are plenty of KS supporters and other interested parties who stay away from online forums. Facebook is another way to stay in contact with these people.

Yeah, add me to the list of people having an *ulp* moment seeing the Twin Towers in the City of Titans skyline. It's really a beautiful piece of artwork, but from that angle, I see another city, not *our* city... =P

That is very much one building. Here is a similar example from the real world:

I liked the City of Titans FB page during the kickstarter drive. Not only am I happy it's active now, I'm happy because it means they have some updates lined up to release there.
For those of you who don't like FaceBook, simply make a dummy account. You don't have to worry about privacy issues if you don't put any real info into it. Only like things you want to get updates from.

A little shading on the middle piece (to make it seem less like the color of the sky) might help even if it probably isn't necessary to tell it's supposed to be a single building.

I know of a few EU CoX players who made one after their CoX Main character, and use that instead of their real details to stay in touch with various people
I agree. I think the fact that the vertical center of the building is almost the same color as the sky probably caused the confusion. It might also stand out more if the sky was a more distinct color.
For example, if Giygas invaded Titan City, the skyline might look more like this...
[url=http://postimg.org/image/dlxqynui3/][img]http://s17.postimg.org/sunocfo6n/titan_city_giygas.jpg[/img][/url]
There, much better! Now you can grasp the true form of the building's construction.
Wha...?!? No Flaming Fireballs rainin' from the Sky?!? :/
My bad, It looked like sky to me :p Just want to avoid a possible issue.
Now that that's out of the way, the skyline is AMAZING!

About the address thing - I moved back in April, where should I update my address? I looked on Kickstarter, and the profile there doesn't seem to have address info...
Change of addresses for any pyiscal goods ordered via the Perks cart need to go to kickstarter@missingworldsmedia.com
IF YOU ORDERED SHIRTS it may be too late. Get it in fast.
Umm, I never got an email regarding the badge.

And this goes for anyone else...
Check for a Surveymonkey survey sent to your Kickstarter registered email account. If you don't find it ( or you saw it and lost it ) send an email to kickstarter@missingworldsmedia.com with the subject "RESEND BADGE SURVEY" and we'll get you a new one out.
while you all have my support in basically everything you do, I have to decline getting a FB page for my own reasons. I do wish you all the best of luck in hitting the mark you have set though and really hope your able to not only achieve it but surpass it!
on a related note...if you all are going to be using FB more often, please ensure all information is shared not only there but here as well....and vice versa. basically, I don't want to find out information second hand because I don't have a FB page. that would make me a very sad hero. :( pretty much...if it's posted here, or there, it is immediately duplicated on the other. just a simple request! :)

+1, please
Spurn all ye kindle.
I have to agree. I have a FB page, basically so my non-local family can pretend I'm keeping in contact. I barely ever remember to check it. My Mother and Brother know where to find me and that's good enough. I simply don't participate in 'social media'.
If there's news of any importance, I look for it on This site. If it's not on this site, then it must not be important.
Be Well!

+1 to whiteperegrine. I asked a friend of mine, who is on Facebook, to like the CoT page, just to help the cause, but I'm not on Facebook and I don't want to be. Please make all CoT related information public here or on the MWM page as well as Facebook.
R.S.O. of Phoenix Rising
I think there's a concentrated effort to keep MWM business separate from the CoT information. Sometimes they'll obviously be tied.. but there are some real objectives that the business needs that the game is not a place for.. recruiting volunteers and posting HR positions for example.
Crowd Control Enthusiast
Noted. However, this is the City of Titans website, and the set of information appropriate for this site should, IMO, also be the set of information appropriate for the City of Titans Facebook page. For the MWM business stuff, there is the MWM website and Facebook page. +1 to White Peregrin [i]et alii[/i].

If you guys can't find people who want to like the page, use omegle or use some of the social media or games you play to get a bigger amount of likes. I've got two more in just from omegle and a lot more from a game I play.
Given the fact that the "ask five questions for 3k likes" is being done both on FB and the forums I'm pretty sure they are planing to use both places to equally share information. I'm sure if either face book or the forums is missing an update or news item in the future it would be by accident rather than design.

Email sent. I hope it isn't too late. The change of address with the Post Office wore off months ago.
So, there are Reasons[sup][size=8]TM[/size][/sup] that Facebook is not a good medium for sharing and disseminating information. The follow-up video is interesting, as well.

It would appear that there are two things to do. Either those people who hope to get their CoT news and updates through the Facebook page need to engage/respond to the posts, or they should make a habit of visiting this site.

There's an "Invite your friends to like this Page" right there, too!
If you have gamer friends on Facebook or if you like to master spam them.. now is a good time. I can see 5 of my friends from my old SG there.

Evolution is key. And mutants are key.
Be careful where you say that on the internet, Mother (Earthbound) fans are crazy.
Giygas is the end boss of the SNES classic Earthbound (or Mother 2 in Japan).
