Guest DarthMaulUK Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 Our spies have intercepted a secret transmission about the release date for Star Wars:Empire At War. Earlier this week, it looked like the game was being pushed back to the end of February. Well, we have official news that the game will be released on 16th February 2006 with Europe getting release around the 20th Feb 2006. Many Bothans died to bring us this information DMUK
alecsuba Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 woohoo so only a week delay roughly instead of 2
Fury161 Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 eh, who cares about the bothans? they're expendable.
xhh2a Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 eh, who cares about the bothans? they're expendable. Hey, bothans are not expendable. If everybody in the rebellion was, they would've lost. thats why the rebellion had shields and such. (which is why the empire didn't care about them) Great news. (Hope it wasn't because of people arguing it would be released too late, or else we would get another bugged game like swbf2)
xSiri_Tachix Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 I say do whatever it takes to get the game out the door as bug free as possible. They might consider doing a community alpha test to weed out the bugs before the official release. I don’t know, but maybe they have already decided to do so?
FleetAdmiral AK Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 yes but patches are made because games are faulty because they were rushed and we want a game with no bugs
aggie_john Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 thats not true I have seen games take forever to be released and still need patches. Bugs are a tiny error somewhere in millions of lines of code. Only extensive game play can find them. Not to mention balance issues are addressed in patches as well.
BattleDamage Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 mmmm extensive gameplay......... delay is sometimes the best way to fix up a game, even if it can be fixed with a patch l8r on, the point is 2 release game that wont need a patch in the first place so EXTREMELY casual gamers who r like ,"Download? whats a download?" will be attracted 2 it. Its all about the cha-ching.
Darth Tater Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 it will be the 17th for the UK as games can only be released on Fridays in this country.
