Post by: Kada-El on May 31, 2003, 07:56:48 pm: Kiern is right, no good will ever come of timeline questions ;)

All I can say is that you should just sit tight and be incredibly patient. Bear in mind that there was about 10 months between the public release of Atomic Blue and Molecular Blue. But I\'m sure that MB will see a few updates before we start demanding Crystal Blue, there\'s plenty of life in MB yet :)

Post by: hook on June 01, 2003, 11:51:17 am: about the release date:

i don\'t think their \"budget\" has much to do with it ...they\'re developping planeshift because they like doing it ...it\'s not their job ...they (probably) carry quite normal lifes and PS is just a hobby they have

when? ...in time :] ...be patient

Post by: kyp14 on June 01, 2003, 11:59:01 am: well Kada I think they should at least give a vague release date give or take say 2months we don\'t wan\'t Duke Nukem forever syndrome I mean honstly you wonder why those guy even have a job I know its a free game and these huys are doing a wonderful job (in there free time to) but keeping the public interested is a very important part of making a succesful game

Why would they or should they? They are focused on it\'s development, release isn\'t a reality yet. MB hasn\'t been out long - enjoy it, it won\'t be here forever ;)

Be patient, I\'m sure when CB is closer to release they will start to think about proposed dates and give us plenty of info and teasers, for example in the form of things like the development diary they had for MB.

At this stage of the proceedings I would think that public interest is the very least of their concerns - I mean they haven\'t even seriously tried to promote this project yet and look at the interest already (there were magazine articles appearing even in 2001 - way before there was even any kind of public demo to play).
When it comes to serious promotion time I\'m sure the problem will be accomodating the number of people interested rather than a lack of public interest ;)

Post by: kyp14 on June 01, 2003, 12:38:57 pm: Hmmm well as long as you make a yearly screenshot to keep me coming back although I\'m sure there are enough wierdos on this forum to keep my interested untill then. :D

Post by: Keldorn on June 01, 2003, 12:52:12 pm: When the first statements regarding the release date of CB arrive i suggest you don\'t start dancing around in your house just yet.
As i seem to remember the release date for MB was said to be like around december 2002, and well that didn\'t really happen either.

nah man, that\'d be perfect, around that time I should have the money to buy a computer that will run it!

Post by: Niber on June 17, 2003, 06:43:25 pm: Well the main thing about Crystal Blue is the storyline if I have understood it correctly. You will start underground for exemple..
