Barkhorn.

That's true, however if it's going to meet the March 13th release date we'd need to have a "Gone Gold" announcement here by early next week at the latest. We are now at that uncomfortable time where it could go either way.

I'm quite comfortable regardless of which way it goes.

Getting sort of close to release to start sending out new beta builds isn't it, Ubisoft? lol

I still don't think this game is coming out this month. I hope I am proved wrong though.

He stated that they received it last week - not that the version was dated as of last week - two VERY different things. I'm deducing that this version is the same one that Neal saw, the same one that the German Martime site saw and the same one that the guy who wrote this review saw. And this version is some months old.

Barkhorn.

He said they had version 1.0.0.1. That must be pretty close to RC status if their number system is like anybody elses with regards to builds.

I would suspect you are totally correct though. I would seriously be amazed if MP and some of the other features weren't part of the most current build yet.

I have always felt it should be delayed until it is right.
I would prefer the fall (please let that not be the case:hmm: ) over half done and waiting for a patch.

Been there done that way too often.

Frankly, I intend to let some of you get it and go through the paid for beta testing before I buy it watching your post until the bugs have been exterminated.

Well, my excise is I am making CFS3-MAW my top priority to get that done and released and that is likely April-May so also could not stand the desire to be in a US sub.

Life is so hard. Between the gun club / Mauser restorations, CFS3-MAW, GWX I am just over worked with playing.:rotfl: Trying to fit SH4 is impossible so I will wait until the MAW project is released.

How I suffer!

If they were going to delay the grand premiere from March 16th and March 22nd UK why would they be sending out a demo last week?

That means going Gold is March 2nd, which is this friday and Gold for Ubisoft has always been game two weeks later ... March 16th.

Beta is beta and a demo is a demo, two different things and they sure didn't mail it to just one reviewer ...

Plus that was an online review, magazine dead lines are even longer.

I'm on lookout for soon and very soon ... at least a demo for us too in March ...

After it goes Gold it becomes party time ...

There won't be a demo for us. One of the Devs said so in the "Ask the Devs" thread at the official forums.
