gEeBuS Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 Yea, I feel ashamed to ask this question but I have been wondering for awhile. What exactly does going gold signify? Is it an amount of pre-orders, an amount of copies printed, or what? Again, sorry for the bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Apparition Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 The game is finished and being sent off to have copies made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 'tis when the "gold master" disc gets sent off to be duplicated. Basically it's the point where the developers finally let go and say "It's done". From that point it can be anywhere from a week to a month before it starts hitting store shelves, depending on the publisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gEeBuS Posted February 26, 2002 Author Share Posted February 26, 2002 I know it is incredibly basic and that I should know it but I have never waited in so much anticipation for a game before. I am literally counting down the seconds to when the game launches. And yea, I am from IL good old Gayperville as most call it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturmgewehr Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 Hey, I'm from Illinois, too. I haven't been there in 11 years though. There are no dumb questions. Only those that have been asked a thousand times (which this one hasn't, so don't feel bad). Say does anybody know if there will be a demo? Maybe I should post a new topic about it...

SlowbieOne Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 Hey gEeBuS, welcome to jk2.net. Thought I'd point out I live not far from you in Bloomingdale,IL. Us Illini should hook up for a game of JK2 in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gEeBuS Posted February 26, 2002 Author Share Posted February 26, 2002 Hell yea, Slowbie. I am up to kicking your ass in JKII . And thanks to everyone for the warm welcome, I have been reading for awhile and really enjoy all you goofballs, especailly the Terminator. I am still waiting for my spoon and medallion dammit. haha.

StormHammer Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 Welcome to the forums, gEeBuS. I hope you're enjoying being a part of this great community. Here... *hands over a chocolate Jedi Medallion* They're tasty. Just an FYI...we save the Valley Of The Jedi for topics directly related to the JKII game. As this is a more general question, I'm going to airlift it to Yoda's Swamp. Get your waders on, and watch out for the pond-life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gEeBuS Posted February 26, 2002 Author Share Posted February 26, 2002 I will keep that in mind, I just wanted to know and thought it was related to JKII enough. I don't like wading very much, so I avoid the airlift in the future and thanks for the medallion. geeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
