popcorn2008 Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 With the much anticipated release of Empire at War arriving faster than a speeding swoop race, many of us here on Lucas forums have been waiting for over a year now for Empire at War. I actually heard about Empire at War in June of last year, and then found my way to these forums in Augest and have seen the growth of EaW and the community. I have to say, it was quite fun to be so involved in the forums and to be able to see Empire at War grow from just an idea to a few screen shots, then to a demo, and now the actual release! So, how long have you been waiting?
Snafu7 Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 Definately over a year, seems like I've been waiting forever, at least the waits almost ever anyways.
Jeff Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 I think I found out about it about a year ago, but didn't really start to get really interested in it until the summer.
Dirk Pitt Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 With the much anticipated release of Empire at War arriving faster than a speeding swoop race, Great Analogy:P I actually heard about Empire at War in June of last year, Same, io heard about it from the gamespot newsletter
Commander Obi-Wan Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 I heard about it around the end of the summer.
Jmaster3265 Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Wasn't there a poll like this before? Anyways i found out in August maybe? Late Sept.
Darth_Extas Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Sorry to say but, I found about Empire at War a few months before I joined LF, so I would say about a Year.
Guest DarthMaulUK Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 There wasnt an option for two years!(late 2003) lol I knew of this RTS about then and was so excited. But back then I didnt have a clue who or what it was going to be like, just that it was coming...and its finally over. DMUK
Sabretooth Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I heard of it right when it was announced, but I didn't really take much interest in it. now that I'm going back to one of my old addictions - Strategy games, I started checking this one out. So, I'm the loner who chose 1 month.
Admiral Sith Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I think I found it when they announced it
darthfergie Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I've been waiting since I was 5 years old for a game like this. Ever since the anouncement of the game I was pumped about it and I definitely still am.
Ra2er Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 I only heard about it from the new C&C site advertising the 10 year collectors edition, that was at the end of Dec a little over a month ago. It was mentioned in a forum at some point, I went to find out about it and here I am. Great game, so glad I found out about it Can't wait for the 17th...
BattleDamage Posted February 6, 2006 Posted February 6, 2006 I've been waitin for this all my life.... well actually since last Feb lol
popcorn2008 Posted February 6, 2006 Author Posted February 6, 2006 Well... well... only ten more days left. At least for America . I have to say that when I first heard about this game I had my doubts and thought it was going to be anouther force commander. Boy, did they prove me wrong.
Elukka Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Luckily, just something like a month. It's just terrible to wait over a year for a game that you want now.
Jmaster3265 Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 3 years Yup...that's a long time... How can you have waited since? 04'? I only heard news about it in late 05' And it was heard of in early 05' i believe. Thats cool, lol kinda odd.
lukeiamyourdad Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Since the release of SWGB:CC maybe? Close to 3 years and a half I think.
endurell Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 Since I first saw Episode IV over 12 years ago.... Ok maybe that's a stretch, but I'd like to see anyone beat it!
Rogue15 Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 since....oh before you were born. j/k just found out about it in september i think?
aggie_john Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 I would have to say the early summer/ late spring when I saw the E3 video. Got really excited as soon as I found out the out westwood guys were working on it. For a thousand generations Westwood was the creator of great RTS games, but that was before the dark times before EA. heehee.
EAWFAN Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 11/10/04 i read a gamespy press release 12 times that day and read every preview and such that came out after that 5 times and i even got cable internet (had dial up) so i could play multiplayer and download the demo i even got a brand new comp on halloween of 2005 so it would run perfect;) and now i wait for 5 almost 4 days (11:28pm) until it arrives!!!
edmendduke55555 Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 I think I found it when they announced it Same here
Foshjedi2004 Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 I found EAW when they released the initial Press releases in January. I've wanted an EAW type game for years. Thats Why I play C&C and ST Armada so Much. I remember when there was 1 page on the LEC website for EAW one forum, When Sluggo was still there. Oh the memories!!
