Croteam and Devolver have decided to launch a help line for Serious Sam 3: BFE...well, sort of.  The video below is the first in a three-part series that follows one particular help line operator as he fields calls from gamers about the upcoming release of the game, mainly wondering where all the barricade and concrete walls are.  However, they have conveniently forgotten to provide the number for the help line.  The video itself is actually pretty good, as I can only imagine what some video game help lines are like when gamers call in with ridiculous questions.

SERIOUS SAM 3: BFE HELP LINE LAUNCHES TO PREPARE GAMERS FOR THE RETURN OF THE ARCADE-STYLE SHOOTER

- Marketing Team Fails to Provide Actual Phone Number -

Austin, TX – Croteam and Devolver have launched a Serious Sam 3: BFE help line for gamers softened by years of cover-heavy shooters. With Serious Sam 3: BFE providing no real cover
against unrelenting enemy hordes, a full arsenal that can be carried all at once, and wheels-off 16-player campaign co-op, fans may need a shoulder to cry on as the game marches towards an
October 18th launch. The three-part series follows one particular help line operator as he takes calls from concerned gamers anticipating the release of Serious Sam 3: BFE.

“I’m already fielding all sorts of calls from shooter fans wondering where all the conveniently placed barricades and random concrete walls are in Serious Sam 3: BFE,” said Rich Knuckles,
Assistant Supervisor at the Serious Sam 3: BFE Help Line. “Most of these guys have gotten soft from years of crouching behind cover, picking off one or two approaching enemies as they make
their way through missions. It’s pathetic.”

Serious Sam 3: BFE is now open for preorders on Steam, Get Games, Impulse, Direct2Drive and other digital download services further increasing the need for a help line for more weak-minded
gamers to prepare for the total mayhem that comes with an all-new Serious Sam game.
“I hope we are outsourcing these help line operators to save some cash,” asked Fork Parker, Devolver Digital CFO. “Use one of those Eastern European countries where the girls have
perfect asses and sexy accents. You know, like Brazil.”

To reach the Serious Sam 3: BFE Help Line simply pick-up your phone and start mashing numbers. When someone answers start asking them about Serious Sam 3: BFE. It’s called viral
marketing.
