hmmm ........ i wonder how much of a heads-up we will receive from the devs before the next release and when the homepage will receive the major overhaul in preparation for CB.

In IRC
hail, mighty Talad
how goes things up there in the immortal world above? :)
* nosferat bows to the space to the left of Talad
things going well, proceeding steadily even if we are late
yay
The goal of this year\'s expedition is to find last year\'s expedition, who attempted to build a bridge between the two peaks...
* nosferat covers one eye and looks at the map
still no ETA, Talad?
my idea, i\'m afraid.

* crj has quit IRC (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out))
Moogie: no, I don\'t want to miss another date :)
it will probably be release without a prior notice

That means they could already have the new site done and waiting offline, or it could be months before cb is released. :( Not fair! ;)

This idea just dawned on me. Maybe they are doing all of this so secretly that once CB is released they will get massive reviews from magazines, websites, etc ?? meaning more sponsors, more players ?? seems to me that  this way everyone might benefit far more in the end. Anyway, the dev team has my full faith. :D
Nearly forgot to say: thank you very much Mogura. :D

They\'re doing it so they\'ll get massive hits to their site by forcing poeple to constantly check if it\'s released.

I know that if I knew it was coming out in 2 months time I wouldn\'t log for 2 months.



Ooooor....



maybe it\'s not a sneaky publicity stunt and they just don\'t want to get peoples hopes up by giving them a date,  since they don\'t really have one.

I can?t nor wont deny the possibilities you have laid out, but I tend to be an optimist. Plus, I?m new here so I haven?t waited too long. Therefore, I still retain some of my sanity (although, I?m running short on supply).  I somehow feel (more like hope) we wont have to wait much longer. :)

The Devs have contributors and new people could join the team and some people might leave the team due to RL issues. No-one\'s bound with any contracts, like in commercial games, so an exact release date is hard to estimate and can change day to day. And that would be just frustrating for us. So they don\'t give us a date, and spare our frustration :)

hmm concrete facts about CB... programming is finished i think... but lol just guessing

Too bad they havnt released artwork but more of a surprise when CB comes out.

It WILL be out this year *cough* lol i hope

new graphical user interface. Thats all i got to see when i built it because i couldnt use the hotkeys when i built cvs \"boohoo\".

Thats my concrete facts.

also some other concrete facts are there are enough 3d devs to give us lots of material in the game and enough programmers too.

Im never sure about background and sound departments but anyway.

Just a question. Do they have a idea of when it will be finished? Cus I remember it was suppose to come out a long time ago but something happened.
mods = QQ

The game will never be finished. It will always be updated. As for CB, yes they probably do have some sort of target.
