Erik Rutins -> We have gone "gold" (3/24/2010 7:18:54 PM)

Hi everyone,

I'm happy to announce that we've submitted the gold master to the store. The release version of the game is finished. As usual, it came down to the wire and it may not have been in time to release tomorrow. In which case we'll release on Friday. We don't normally do a Friday release, but given the anticipation level, we will do so in this case if the store is not ready on Thursday.

Regards,

- Erik

Hey, it's the weekend coming up! Good deal!



Gertjan -> RE: We have gone "gold" (3/24/2010 7:24:30 PM)

I will not play it tomorrow anyway. Any specific time (and the time zone location of this planet)?

Notice how the comments are disabled on the Windows 7 launch party video. What did Microsoft do or plan to do with such a video. It's so lame and bad acting yet it appears that it was an attempt to be fun and good acting. It seems like Microsoft wanted to inform people with the video but were also hoping that a Windows party would catch on and become a popular past time. heh. Wow.

The parody of Hitler responding to the video is funny also:

The clip is from:
"Downfall (German: Der Untergang) is a 2004 German-Austrian epic drama film directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel,..."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downfall_(film)
It's a good movie.

My work days are dragging like hell waiting for this game.

These devs are working in new zeeland times right? Which is ahead of GMT, which is ahead of me, so friday for them is tuesday evening for me, and tuesday noon for americans :D

drillerman -> RE: We have gone "gold" (3/24/2010 9:09:43 PM)

Erik,

IMO the Downfall parodies are so overdone, there were like five Downfall parodies alone for the release of the game Hearts of Iron 3.

It's one of the most over-used parodies these days.:(

Anyway, great news and thanks for the update Erik, I got my creditcard all ready to go!



eltharion -> RE: We have gone "gold" (3/24/2010 11:16:30 PM)

I'm warming up my c-card [:D]

martok -> RE: We have gone "gold" (3/25/2010 10:00:53 AM)

Oy. I really hope the game's out tomorrow, as it's the only day I have off between now and Monday. Otherwise, I'm going to have to wait til the weekend is done to get any real amount of playing time in.





EagleMountainDK -> RE: We have gone "gold" (3/25/2010 11:44:48 AM)

Its "tomorrow" here in Denmark now.... [:'(]



Baleur -> RE: We have gone "gold" (3/25/2010 1:30:39 PM)

Cougar, we beat your arse with an army of peasants in Skåne [:'(]
