Whether that is true or not, what does going gold mean?

"Going Gold" essentially means that the game has reached its final pre-release revision and is sent to the manufacturer to be put on disc and shipped to the distributors.

Status: offline 		a few months ago (blimey, it seems like a few months ago!)andymac confirmed that even if it went gold today there would be a 3 month wait - and said he still hoped to get AE out in 2008 - that would hopefully mean you had a good idea of where you were in September, and as its nearly September, im just asking if you have any info...... on the assumption that terminus isnt right obviously!!!

IF it were to exist, in any but the most feverish mind.

That was good,also what I'd expect now that you alleged lot are delving into ai high strangeness. Keep up the good work!(If there is such a project of course)

Its a hotly contested race:

We have "Jutland" and "AE"in a dead heat!(If there really is a race)With Bombing the Reich in front by an aileron and getting ready for a powerdive to the finish!

Hmmn,think I'll lay a bet down on Hard Sarge and Harley.

Why? Something which doesn't exist will check your HD for WITP (at least version 1.0) in order to run? This thread is funny.
You guys rock. .. or whatever figment of my imagination you all are ...pretends to rock.

so the big fat guy in the red, usually starts hanging around 24 December, who also doesnt exist, may, actually still be able to bring a non existent copy??

out of interest, the delays that were caused by AI digging - is this all there is left to go - everything else just hanging around waiting for a working AI to be bolted on the side??
