Jedimaster74 Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 I really hope it does come out earlier than expected so that I can start playing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUS_Tomcat Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 I hope it comes out on the 28th (the store's computer says that, I find it tough to believe but i PRAY the computer is right!), cause i have that thursday off, the friday too, sat and sun naturally, and mon and tuesday i have off as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CorranHornjr Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 I remember going into Barns n noble one time and asking if a book was out yet. The guy said that it doesn't release for another 4 days...but that they did have it in stock in the store. He said that they were not allowed to sell it until the release date. So i am sure it is the same for video games, but who knows. I am just trying to wait patiently, and keep myself occupied. later on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBK Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 I just got off the phone with my place, Software Etc..., and they said they will have it in store to sell, I can pick up my pre-order, on the 28th. Just throwin it out there. HBK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daedelus Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 There is some legal type stuff behind holding the game before the actual release date. I remember the same type of situation with Dark Age of Camelot and EB. The boxes were chilling in a warehouse a few days before the official live date and they wouldn't allow any stores to sell them. It being an online only game that might be different than JO, but I doubt it as there is multiplay as well through the Zone. D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiE23 Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 Maybe it will be like the Harry Potter book last year, te store maybe get it on the 27 and are told to put it on the shelfs on the 29:) that would be cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P h o e n i x Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 Back in the day I wanted to get a game called Ultimate Race Pro by Microprose. I looked up the release date and it said later in the week. I called up EB and they already had it. I got it and installed it, but something was up. I called tech support and they asked how I had gotten it, heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indianajones9 Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 Just reserved my JO from EB. The guy said the 28th. I said, "the 28th? It WILL BE HERE on the 28th?" He said yeah ships on the 27th here to buy in the 28th. I said, "what time should I stop by?" He said 12:00 - 2:00. I said SWEET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syko Posted March 19, 2002 Author Share Posted March 19, 2002 Yeah, that's why my EBX said too...that they'll get it on the 28th. Even THAT would be nice, but I'd rather be greedy and hope for earlier hehe -Syko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generique Fin Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 Reality check. The game went gold last week. Which means it has not been at the duplication plants very long - I would be very surprised if they were able to make hundred of thousands (maybe millions) within not even a week. You will not see Outcast this week - but next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Ergotht Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 I think so ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zek Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 Most stores seem to be predicting having it on the 28th; it's confirmed to be shipping out on the 27th. The 29th is probably Raven's official "All stores should have it by then" date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimindtrick Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 What a glorious week that will be for me. Jedi Outcast, and a Bad Religion show.. Damn.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maynard Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 I worked at a Babbages during this past holiday season, and there wasnt any prevention rules for selling a game 'early'. I mean, if a game was to release say, the 29 march, and somehow they gota shipment the 20'th, they could and would sell it, after their pre-orders were taken care of.

Fin Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 The average CD production factory should be able to output at least 50,000 Disks per day. If this includes complete packaging I am not sure. I doubt that LucasArts uses a the whole capacity of such a plant, but I am sure that in a week enough copies can be produced to ensure a good launch.

hahadude Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 I was wondering if all pre-orders will get it at about the same time or if LEC has a certain number in mind for pre-orders. For example, I pre-ordered today. Is there a chance that there are so many pre-orders that I will have to wait for a second shipment? Or do all pre-orders get sent right away regardless of how many are received? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIE Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 I think if there were a cut-off date like that, they'd post the "out of stock" message like they are now with the Collectors Tin. But who knows... -TIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickeleye Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 My Software Etc. said they'd have it on the 28th and I could pick it up then (assuming they will indeed have it) since I put a copy on reserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syko Posted March 20, 2002 Author Share Posted March 20, 2002 To all who preordered from LEC: Does it still say March 19th on the Order Status page, like a few people reported it did earlier this week? Anyone wanna provide an update on this? -Syko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Nizar Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 In my early replys I said that can't be True that the Game can be Shipped befor the 29. Amzon.de and some other German Online shops still says 28. I sended mails to them and all says that they will get the Game the 25 and that they will ship ist the 28. Yeah.... in the Theorie wie can get it befor the USA but due to the Holidays I/we (in German) will recieve it the 3rd April. PS: finally I found the englisch version. JK2 will 100% be translatet in other languages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
