Being somewhat familiar with the Matrix release mechanism, I take this to mean it is close to being released in the next day or two.

I hope this turns out to be right. A weekend of Distant Worlds sounds a lot more appealing than all the odd jobs my missus has lined up for me!

EDIT: Bah, it's still on the Coming Soon bit for me. :(

Someone cocked up the website. 2. Something wrong with my PC. 3. The game got so fed up with "coming Soon" it decided to release itself!!!!!!!

I should have been clearer - I'm referring to the "Coming Soon" page in the store/Digital River

It has never been in the Coming Soon section in the store - that's rarely used. The Products section coming soon page is the one we typically post upcoming product in.

Folks, try hard to see the positive side to this! It just means the devs are working hard to get this game perfect! (So much for my previous "glass half-empty comments" )

I don't want the game perfect! I want a half assed release that I can moan about and patch up every other day for a months. That way I will feel I am getting my money worth!!!

Just want to let people know, being the good beta tester I am, I've cooked something up for you all... Now we're just working out how to get this little treat out to you... be watching and waiting!

Yes, he's definitely a beta-tester. I'm not sure who LarryP might've been referring to, but it wouldn't have been SoM.

Yeah Webco, Larry and I talk on the beta forum, so it wasn't me. I said that this Sherlock guy wasn't a tester, maybe that is what you saw?

No pc game is perfect at release anyway, so they might as well just release it already
There'll be an equal number of bugs anyway, regardless if its released today or next week, with thousands of people starting to play it as opposed to a few dozen beta testers during the development.
