When will this game be released?

Post by Noakesy »

This looks an interesting game, and I've always wanted to play a pc version of something akin to Squad Leader and this appears to fit the bill. When do you think this is likely to be released?

It seems that board isn't accepting any new registrations for some reason? Not a great selling point for the game.

Yeah, I ran into that a few weeks ago when I tried to register. I sent them an email, and they replied really quick. They had to disable registration due to spammers. I'm sure they will turn it on again soon.

Seeing as screenshots can be posted in these threads, im suprised that with Matrix being the publisher of this game there are not more screenshots and more information. I realise that alot of stuff is over at the designers forum, but im not a member and i dont feel that i should need to be a member of a group to access screenshots and info of an upcoming game. Thats really limiting your fanbase and potential customers. Me being one of them.
 
Come on lock 'n' Load, give us more information...[:-]

One thing I would like to know is what screen resolutions the game supports? Also how it scales; both screenshots and videos seem to show very large counters and a very small slice of map. I'm sure that makes the counter art look very pretty, but I'd rather see much more map at a glance if I'm running it in 1680 x 1050.

Still can't register for the forum. Not exactly the most welcoming of communities, is it?

yeah very disappointing considering that usually all other game forums here at matrix are thoroughly supported and welcoming to their clients.

it seems to me that the guys making this game have a superior complex going or somthin. [:(] very up-nosy imhop.

laters,

Nah I don't think so himmelstoss... I guess they are just working their *sses off. Quite busy so to speak. Well, we'll just have to wait and let the game speak for itself.

Mark Walker is extreeeeeeemely busy currently. Nothing to do with a "complex" or something. And the convention season is about to open, which gives an extra workload.

The game is progressing very well, all maps are done, 3 need small updates. Sounds are being remastered currently , special effects are being integrated by Tom, etc. etc.

We will need to tackle the GUI before we post any more screenshots or videos.

Would it be safe to say that the game will be released within, say, oh... a week or two? [:D]

What he said!!! [:D]
EXCEPT: Better late than buggy.

Idea: Have the Main Guys work on the game, send peons (or dribble-ons if you prefer) to the convention(s).

Guys u got to understand that it is a precise marketing goal to release information, including vids, screenshots and beta AARs of any game on behalf of any publisher in the world. Putting hassle is a good carrot to tell the DEVs to move quickly because they see interest in the game, however, do not forget that even an ample time window for a release date is premature until the game has arrived to the final beta stage (which doesn't seem the case) and that asking is pretty useless because if you were given a date, and that date was not respected, the setback would be huge. [:)]
