LordQuiGonJinn Posted October 23, 2001 Share Posted October 23, 2001 Thought you'd all like to know there should be an official annoucement anytime soon, and if your wondering how i know, the EBGames newsletter said the Contact at lucusarts informed them.. I should be out in a week or two, yea!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthfergie Posted October 23, 2001 Share Posted October 23, 2001 when a game goes gold...what does that mean??? BTW We heard today from our LucasArts contact that Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds has gone gold. This is very good news for both real-time strategy and Star Wars fans. Galactic Battlegrounds combines a game engine adapted from the definitive Age of Empires series with the immersive Star Wars galaxy. Play as the Empire, the Alliance, Wookies or even those freaky Gungans. Embark on huge campaigns filled with challenging skirmishes, mission objectives and over 300 different units that include Jedi Knights, AT-ATs and snowspeeders. With the gone gold announcement out of the way, we can look forward to Galactic Battlegrounds hitting its mid-November ship date. Just follow this link to pre-order now: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted October 23, 2001 Share Posted October 23, 2001 'Gone gold' basically means that everything is set is stone now and there is a master disc which has gone to manufacturing. There will be NO changes to the game now; debugging is basically finished as well. (of course, the team will continue to look for bugs and release a patch if the need is there). So mid-november is solid now ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WC_heavyarms Posted October 23, 2001 Share Posted October 23, 2001 Good, in case anyone is wondering, they are probably now making enough copies so it is not sold out for a while. It comes out Nov. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordQuiGonJinn Posted October 23, 2001 Author Share Posted October 23, 2001 hehe and those of us who preordered from the Lucasarts store may get it a day or 2 earlier.... heres to hoping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jesseg88 Posted October 23, 2001 Share Posted October 23, 2001 Why it's called "gone gold" is because the master copy disc is gold in color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idiot00001 Posted October 23, 2001 Share Posted October 23, 2001 I can't wait for it to be shipped, and I read somewhere that it would come out on November 12 or possibly even a week earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maul403 Posted October 23, 2001 Share Posted October 23, 2001 the "contact" from lucas arts? yeh well would'nt it be on main page first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordQuiGonJinn Posted October 23, 2001 Author Share Posted October 23, 2001 most likely Lucasarts Public Relations is writing up a Press Release to annouce it publically, i think Lucasarts is based in California so they still could put out the release today.

LordQuiGonJinn Posted October 24, 2001 Author Share Posted October 24, 2001 There should probaly be an official Statement anytime now, it would probaly be at Lucasarts.com first like when Rouge Leader went gold. It'd be awesome if they annouced it'd be out next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
