"Coming soon" section added to all studios

Philip

After initial testing for SLR originals we are now rolling out "coming soon" section for all studios on the platform.

Shall we make a "coming soon" page where all coming soons can be listed?

Just thinking

Philip I do like the idea of having it for the individual studios, cool to get a sneak peek for our favorites.

As far as for all upcoming scenes, maybe that would be cool. I don't think I'd personally look at it since I would instead just look at the upcoming ones for my fav studios, and since you guys just have so many scene drops on a daily basis it'd probably look a bit chaotic, but I'm sure there's plenty of dudes who would like to have the option assuming it's not a bitch to do the dev work for.

Philip I actually noticed this the other day, and I was gonna message you, personally.

And I'm not sure if you guys planned this all along, but If you remember, I actually requested/suggested this when you first introduced this feature. So thank you, It's such a useful feature!! (But just like what @justsomedude101 said, I can only see myself clicking the "coming soon" for only my favorite studios. With that being said, I might occasionally look at that page to check any active studios or maybe I'll be able to discover some new ones through that, and I'm sure many others would love that.)

How could you not have a "coming soon"

Most vr sites have this section. 🤷‍♂️🤪

Vrsumo2017 There is more logistics behind the scenes, while regular site gives you 2 updates/week, and you can have your marketing person switching coming soon section twice a week, on SLR there is tens of videos uploaded per day, but now it's all automated.

Hope this is not an excuse to do away with thumbnail previews of new releases 🙁 The picture of Agatha Vega soon on VRsolos does not have any thumbnail previews of the entire scene, neither from Aubree Valentine's - Interview from SLR Originals that HAS released. The little black square with no video length is still there and is still not preview-able. As a result I think Coming Soon videos shouldn't be released along side the normal new releases.

They should have their own page as suggested and then finally released onto the main page as usual with thumbnail previews. Not as a coming soon video with no previews, that we will have to remember to come back to the next day, do a search for, and manually open to decide whether we want to watch or not. Just a suggestion, otherwise we'll have to work around by creating a new playlist for this purpose; however there is already confusion as @justsomedude101 commented on the video.

I'm not sure what you mean with "to do away", previews are unavailable unless the video is already processed and ready which would kill the point of having any coming soon.

Philip Glad you're not taking that critical feature away. But on the web browser, Aubree Valentine's - Interview IS processed and released, but still has no preview functionality. Could you look into that? I figured the VRsolo would amount to the same thing, in addition to any coming soon videos inserted into the main page new releases.

But by looking at VRsolo's recent comment it looks like they and other studios can add their own Announcement Teaser, and not SLR doing it which I thought. I'm just wondering if when it's processed and released, will it show on the main page as a new release or stay released under, as of now, 2 days ago. People searching by new will easily miss these if the latter is the case. I'll check tomorrow to see what happens. Thanks.
