You beat me to it. It's been close for a month so where are we at?

Still testing?

Waiting on the printer?

Has price been determined?

Hurry up and take my U.s greenbacks before they turn into wompum.

Status: offline 		Ok, here's the latest update. We ran into some real problems with the new printer we're using for this - unfortunately there was no other option budget-wise for a 330+ page color manual. We've worked through them, but the net result was much more time in the "proof" process than expected, which means late June is looking unlikely and early July is looking more definite. We very much want this to be a synchronized release, so we will not be releasing the download version early. Instead, we'll use the time after Gold (not there yet) to allow the team to keep testing the gold master get a head start on the first update.

Regards,

- Erik

How about taking a nice long look at digital download before the flippin gorgeous manual or spectacular wall mountable full glossy map are ready? That way you won't need to put up with annoying posts like this wondering why this time you guys just had to have the manual done first!

Hell,I'll be more than happy to pay the full damn price and wait on the manual and map for another 6 months if you need it! Just give us the flippin game for the love of pete.

Man, I hate when Erik jumps in here and hits us with a cold harsh dose of reality. At least we get the real facts from him.

But..... you guys said you would release at least a portion of the manual before the game is released. Well?
