I know you are busy with evryday work stuff and getting the manual and evrything else ready but do you have a ETA on release? Or maybe Matrix folks can tell us. Also, any word on a feature list for this release or is it 100% bug squashing stuff? Thanks.

Dan G.

I don't see a link for chat anywhere from the forum pages, and I don't see any announcement directing me to a chat room at a given time.

So... what are you talking about?

Status: offline 		Yes, Erik, we have - but I agree with BleacherBum. This forum feels dead! We need to get some conversations going, or there's no point in visiting it daily. I think if there were a whole bunch of people posting here, excited about the upcoming release, etc., we'd have the feeling of excitement building to a fever pitch that accompanies a much-anticipated release.

Since most of you can already download RC1 I'll let you know you are not missing anything.

Its a bummer to see people already giving up. Please don't take the move to Matrix as being a negative thing, we'll get it out there.

As much as I love Baseball when Football starts I change direction.

Surely football season is playing a part, but in my mind it feels like we've lost the 'critical mass' of conversation that keeps people coming back and participating in more conversation. It isn't so much about when the release date is, as where's the chatter?

Hmmm... Actually for me, one of the things I like about PureSim is I can have baseball in December.

Hope the game comes out soon.

Status: offline 		Well we actually said late summer and technically today is the last day of summer :)

The last release of the game was July so we are not talking about a massive delay here between releases.

I think people are being a little hard on me for taking a little extra time to release a FREE upgrade for existing users, after I have released about 10 over the past 6 months.

Hang in there ok?

I hope the release brings in many new buyers, but I find myself feeling pretty neutral regarding this final release.

If you are already using one betas / RCs then you are absolutely right, nothing new here to see just some polish and a manual. If you are using the last official public release (v8.21) then this release has a HUGE amount of new features.

Ideally we'll expand the market a bit and hit again with another release next spring.

Shaun, you have been great, consistently releasing new public updates/betas/RC's and keeping us well informed on what's going on prior to the final release. I wish that other designers would take lessons on this from you.

I hope you're hanging in there yourself. It bewilders me as to why some people are so impatient with gaming companies to the extreme they are nowadays. So you've got to wait a week or two more. Why not take dust off an old gem or two to waste time (and probably have as much fun)?

Sorry to preach, but all the negativity is hardly necessary. Just do what you're doing, Shaun.
