This is pretty unbelievable. Refreshed at 10:00 and the site was already down with a "we'll be back soon" message.
Obviously, the bigger devs would have got their tickets days (weeks?) ago.
- danpalmer 13y agoI'm not sure they will have. Perhaps a few of the really major companies like EA, but I know some pretty prominent developers for the platform and none of them have ever mentioned anything about getting priority tickets.
- bri3d 13y agoIf you have contacts you definitely get tickets, but they don't always come early. I think there's some subset reserved for Developer Relations and they give them out at will - I've never noticed a particular strategy with respect to app store placement.
- nglevin 13y agoI believe that's true, regarding Developer Relations. I did get into a Tech Talk one year that was sold out through a large media company, thanks to that. However, that's a tricky road to go down. I have no idea what Apple's criteria is for that, and I know some teams that have worked closely with Apple in the past that never got that treatment.
- collias 13y agoMeh. I'm a developer of one of the top 3 grossing music apps in the iOS App Store, and Apple doesn't give us anything.
- n9com 13y agoyou probably would have if you were top 3 grossing overall
- dzlobin 13y agoDeveloper of the #2 music app here, didn't get shit ahead of time (or just now).
- collias 13y agoHello, competition :D
- robterrell 13y agoYou should ask Developer Relations. Edit: before dzlobin does!
