It's almost March -- guess the release date!

butsam · 02-25-2015, 09:35 PM

Guess the release date (the official release date, not the 3 days early preorder date), and win adulation, and maybe one or more forum "Thanks", from your peers! (You may also win an interrogation from Markus to make sure you aren't hacking into his system, but that is up to his discretion.)

FWIW, here are a few key dates in baseball this season:

* First Spring Training game:
-- March 1 (Phillies v Spartans)
-- March 3 (between two major league teams)

* First Regular Season game:
-- April 5 (for Cardinals v. Cubs)
-- April 6 (other teams)

With that, start throwing your virtual darts at the dart board!

March 30, preorders get the weekend to play so March 27

March 30, 11:59PM. I know how devs work, sneaky bastards.

r0nster · 02-25-2015, 10:53 PM

April 1st for obvious reasons. ... But think it be March 31st when they release who is on the team or not. Would prefer March 1st

falkonisback · 02-25-2015, 11:00 PM

I'm gonna give Markus and co. The benefit of the doubt and go with march 20th.

r0nster · 02-25-2015, 11:13 PM

Since the ides of March falls on the 15th this year. I would go with that as my 2nd choice LOL

Getting into the habit of looking them up helps you to beware of them.

August 17th, 14:27.

bwburke94 · 02-26-2015, 09:47 AM

Since it's been a Monday often, my guess is March 23. March 20 for pre order customers.

colourmebrad · 02-26-2015, 10:17 AM

Pre-order ends the 15th, so it can't be earlier than that. Pre-orderers get it 3 days early, so proper release can't be earliest than the 18th.

I think the 30th (with the pre-order people getting the weekend, as mentioned above) is a good bet.

I'm going to guess the 24th of March for the pre-orders and 27th for everyone else (mid afternoon UK time, as ever).

Assos · 02-26-2015, 11:52 AM

I am assuming that whatever the release date is, the pre orders will have to wait to use their Steam key.
