Clearer release date

[Bizatch]

in the video interview with doug, he said taht the game will be ready by mid summer :cheese:

 

[Sai]

how is that at all different from what they've said before about the summer release date?

 

[Bizatch]

well doesnt mid summer mean that its like july?

 

[Mr.Reak]

Yeah, wasn’t he the same guy who said, a week before Sept. 30th, that the game is still on track? As much as I want this game, and am fan of Valve, I just don’t trust that guy at all.

 

[slicktick]

Its not any clearer than summer. Mid to late, its summer, lets not divide up seasons.

 

[fizzlephox]

But we do divide up seasons. Months? We divide months too. Weeks? We divide up weeks too. Days? Give us a month then a week then a day then an hour then we'll be satisfied.

 

[Letters]

The new IGN hands-on said they might be more specific at E3...

 

[slicktick]

we divide years into months actually not seasons. But that is irrelavant, when a mid is added to a word in an interview with valve, doesnt mean much, its still summer.

 

[deathryuu]

But we do divide up seasons. Months? We divide months too. Weeks? We divide up weeks too. Days? Give us a month then a week then a day then an hour then we'll be satisfied.

we even divide days, hours, minutes....even seconds!

buts thats getting a bit off topic.

Pretty much.

 

[Apos]

I was betting it was mid-summer already, given what they said about when the mod expo would be (i.e. sometime in July).

 

[Sai]

i'm betting that they're giving a later than likely release date to surprise people when the game goes gold it'll be out earlier

[Sai]

uhh isn't that like a ticket to get banned?

 

[Letters]

No staff members even posted in this thread... ?

 

[fizzlephox]

uhh isn't that like a ticket to get banned?

I don't know. But it'll go towards the purchase of said ticket if it doesn't automatically give him one.

 

[Intamin]

Hehe, quite away to go, though, don't you think?

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

I really really REALLY dont understand why people from other sites view the admins here as anything but very profesional and generally nice guys.

I just dont get it. I really dont. ;(

 

[Dougy]

Oh yeah!

in the geuss the release thread i said july.

*dances*

 

[Sai]

uh...what do you have against the admins?

 

[Crusader]

Take some comprehension classes...

 

[Sai]

Take some comprehension classes...

is it just me or did you post in the wron thread or something

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

Just you mate


I dunno if English is your native language or not but I was commending the admins on a good job. I have nothing against them at all. :cheers:

 

[Intamin]

Hehehe, implicit humor is some of the best.

 

[Sai]

sheesh i'm a moron, and no english is not my native language so please forgive me for the insanely retarded remarks

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

Ah, dont worry about it mate. And by the way, your English is very impresive. Better than mine probably

 

[Cunni]

Mid summer would imply a late July or early August release. In some ways I wouldn't mind a later release, as I would like to play this game at a darker time of year. And since I want to enjoy the sound as much as anything else, I don't want to play in th emiddle of the night and wake up my landlords.

 

[Orange]

i don't understand the context of that picture.

on topic: I wouldn't expect anything before july. June would be a bit soon.

 

[Cunni]

A week ago, my local EB was saying July 1, but I know how much retail stores release dates are liked around here. :|

 

[Beserker]

I said it ages ago that it'll make it summer. 1 0\/\/nZ

valve = bullshit artists

 

[Rupertvdb]

the picture made me chuckle because of the fat kids expression, take it like a joke, he's a gimp if he is being insulting.

On the quation in hand i had a word with gabe and he is going to release the game when i come back from travleling Europe and have got my new computer so i'll tell you guys when that's hapening.

 

[umop]

My July 24 release date prediction is sounding better and better. If I was actually right about that, I am buying more lottory tickets than I can scratch off in a week...

 

[Spiffae]

don't go buying the tickets yet let's see what happens tomorrow at E3.

edit: nice! 900 posts!

 

[SaltyCrackers]

July 24th is a Saturday... since when do games come out on Saturdays?

Since when do people make a note of when every game is released, and then figure out what days are the most popular for games to be released on?

 

[Spiffae]

games are released on tuesdays, generally... any pork chop sandwich knows that.

 

[Rupertvdb]

i wish i could tell whether you are joking or not... RHCP did the socks on cocks thing because it was Tuesday, Flea said so in an interview.
