No "release day or date" was ever announced.

So much conjecture and this is such a bad day for it.

Here's a thought... What if the partial release is nothing more than an April Fool's joke, and the full release is coming out tomorrow or the day after.

Wouldn't that be a reverse kick in the ass?

...and although Steve doesn't like to formally comment on it, there was somewhat of a rough release date that Markus said he'd TRY to get it out for, that being opening day. However, opening day is actually April 5th. Only chumps consider the Japan series opening day. And Markus has since mentioned April 15th, so... there ya go.

MidnightPyro · 04-01-2004, 10:52 PM

I'd be ecstatic. As long as it comes out tommorow, so they finally break the silence and I don't have to endure another day of arguements. I just want my OOTP6 so I can start building up my Reds.

I hope Markus will just release the game tommorow with or without H2H.

Steve Kuffrey · 04-01-2004, 10:53 PM

True, but there was never "OOTP6 will be released on.........." Markus did give some "possible targets".

Mudfrost · 04-01-2004, 10:55 PM

If it happened, it would be a perfect April Fools joke. I'd send them an extra five bucks for sheer ballsiness (no pun intended).

crackpott · 04-01-2004, 10:57 PM

hense "try"

MidnightPyro · 04-01-2004, 10:58 PM

Yeah, it would be pretty good. And it is sort of one helloffa coincidence that Markus posts that poll on April Fools. The good part is it if is an april fools joke, he has to release it tommorow.
Otherwise I think we'd have to burn Markus at the stake if he came out and said,
"Haha! April Fools! The game release is still set to around April 15th!"

Mudfrost · 04-01-2004, 11:05 PM

But of course that would be the plan: to release the full version just after the slathering fans have worn themselves out and finally accepted the reality of no imminent release. sniff...sniff...BAM! Download Available! Perfection.

I'm a dreamer.

Hmm, I work for the day and I have like a 1,000 threads to read through. Maybe I should post this in each one, by the end of the week, I'll be a HOF.

oh yeah, +1

If anything, after reading through the posts today, I doubt we'll see the game before next week.

SoxWin · 04-01-2004, 11:41 PM

of not having 18,742 threads full of virtual masturbation in anticipation of OOTP6's release?

It's crashing the board constantly and is pretty annoying. Also, I'm pretty sure it's not going to get the game out any faster, especially if Markus tries to post it's done and he meets the CGI error message we all know and love.

SoxWin · 04-01-2004, 11:42 PM

I happen to agree with you SoxWin.

No.

It will be out when it's out and giving yourself a heart attack isn't going to change that.

My heart generally beats faster when I'm about to get some. YMMV.

BaseballMan · 04-01-2004, 11:46 PM

When its ready i beleive Steve or Markus usually annouces when the game will be release.
I dont remember for sure but i dont think they just release
it all of sudden overnight without annoucing its release beforehand ...as far as i remember they have usually annouced its release when its ready, a couple of days before the release.

Not that i would complain if they didnt annouce it a couple of days before but i seem to remember everybody posting about the day that ootp5 was to be released.
