The release date of the release date?

mauboy · 02-20-2006, 10:59 AM

Will there be one? If so, how far in advance? Just curious...

kingcharlesxii · 02-20-2006, 11:02 AM

I agree. If nothing else could we get the release date of the release date of the release date?

Sublimity · 02-20-2006, 11:07 AM

I don't understand why they're holding the date hostage at all. Release it!

PSUColonel · 02-20-2006, 11:19 AM

because the game is likely not as far along as they'd have liked at this point.

You guys crack me up.

It is true though. Release dates are a hard sell to the developers. Perhaps when Markus is finished we will get a release date.

Read the blogs again.

I bet there is something in there you didn't see the first time.

Maybe they will never release the release date. Maybe one day you'll get on and BOOM, it'll say "OOTP 2006 IS HERE!".

You'd then have a heart attack in shock, and be rushed to the hospital. There, you are kept for days on end. But then, your allowed to come home. Then, just as you start to download it, the power goes out due to a freak solar flare. You find a still-working battery-powered radio, and turn it on. You hear scientists say that the power could be out for 2 weeks. NOOOOOOO!

So, 2 weeks later, the power comes back on. Your so happy that the power is back on that you jump up really high.... and bump your head on the wall. So back to the hospital you go.

So you are kept there again for a day or two, and, when you get home, your computer isn't working, you forgot to unplug it after the power went out, and the computer shortcircuited when the power came back on. You are so angry, you kick the computer.

It explodes.

You die.

The End.

I don't think that's what was in the blogs that spleen was talking about. I'll have to read through again to make sure though.

I plan on bunking pretty close to Markus' crib in heaven.

Oh no, it's starting.

Starting? Escalating to more fevered pitch is more like it.

I'm so excited.

I've been anxiously awaiting a release date for what appears to be the most awesome version of OOTP yet. And at the bottom of this conversation, I found it in a signature I've seen a few times but hadn't really thought about. Well written, Malleus.

By the way, I'm a long-time OOTP fan who just discovered this board. I must say it's nice to know there really are other people -- many other people -- who enjoy this game as much as I do. I personally can't wait to start extending the average career length and setting position-based salaries.

It's good to know BM should be on our monitors at least by June ... hopefully.
