I was searching around for a new game to play, so I typed some search terms into Google to see what came up. In the list of responses, I saw EIA mentioned. It had been months since I'd been out here, so I clicked on the link to see what was up. Did they ever really release EIA?

Nope, the link let to a Matrix page that said the status was "under development".

ROFLOL. Amazing. This game is starting to challenge Harpoon 4 in reaching legendary leves of vaporware.

Actually, do the developers have a plan to pass along their knowledge to the next generation of developers before they die? This is obviously a multi-generational project.

I only wanted information, not this kind of post.

Do you think so? You belive that question for news is reopen wounds? Perhaps some people don´t read the first post ("bile men...")

Then, I don´t know what is the meaning of this forum. I thought that was for ask about information. Perhaps I'm mistaken. Or perhaps the lack of information is mistaken.

And what's wrong with Matrix that they can't tell us when this game is going to be released?

Don't these guys know how to communicate?

In my opinion Matrix has made a serious strategic error.

They have produced far too many games and the quality of most of them is probably mediocre to low, especially in the programming department (no fault of those hard-working people--they've simply been given too much work).

The one I know most about is "Crowns of Glory" and it is simply a mess. It simply shouldn't have been released in its present form and the numerous patches have not patched it.

I don't hold out much hope for EIA. It may never come out, and if it does it will probably be a disappointment.

Perhaps you need to work harder on your english. I have no idea what you are talking about with some people didn't read your first post, everyone here seems to although it is a challenge to comprehend it. As for the meaning of this forum, you have not read posts. In MANY other places this has been brought up and the answer is the same: it's not ready, we are working on it, we will let you know when it is done, quit asking.

I need work hard my english, sure. But we can speak in spanish when you want to explain me your point of view, I'm sure that your spanish will be better than my english.

My english dictionary says "bile men" (I presume that Collins needs work hard his english, sure) for the idea, but I thought that the people with a bit of good will could (even the South Caroline boys) understood it. "bile men" or people with too much bile in the brain, perhaps a bad translation of a spanish expression. People that only want to dirt a post, not search information.

This area of the forums is for games in development, and the people working on these projects do read the forums for input. Forums devoted to games in development also allow a release for those of us who look forward to these up-and-coming games.

As far as the quality of Matrix games, perhaps you should do a web search for reviews of Grigsby's World at War.

I'm not quite sure what you want, because it seems you are of two minds on the subject -- on the one hand, you seem impatient for the release of this game, and on the other, you seem to feel Matrix is not putting enough care into their projects.

I think most EiA fans would rather Matrix take the time to get it right, and according to Marshall, we don't have too much longer to wait. I believe we will see MEiA this year, but I will get it whenever it comes out.

Could it be you mean "Spew Venom"?

You can check out the WiF forum for an example of everything that it can be for a game in development. It's definitely an outlier, but since you asked...

Well 3 points: [1] I did not join a spanish speaking forum, you did join an english speaking one; [2] I have never heard of any such phrase in America; [3] as I previously pointed out, YOU were the one that failed to search the forum and if anyone is spam posting (an english internet term) it is you by continuing to bring up an issue that is in many other forums and has been responded to repeatedly with basically 'we will let you know when we know'.
