[vasuba_pff]

id visit them if theyd let me

[Teradyn_pff]

Visit them and what? You be nice ok?

 

On the other hand, who lives near Lucas Arts's headquarters?

 

Maybe you could go "politely" ask for an explanation to the delay?

id just want to visit and look round the Place and maybe see a sneak peak would be neat to see the game behind the scenes in development etc and meet the nice folks making it

[Teradyn_pff]

Wouldn't we all? It is one of my dreams to get into the game industry, but right now I am busy wrangling data and haven't opened a compiler in about 4 months.. :'(

 

I am still curious though (back on topic) about the reason for the delay.

 

What, other than distribution problems, could delay the game for only 2 weeks? Not that I want a bigger delay, but if there was one, I would expect more than 2 weeks, you know?

[vasuba_pff]

Darthmauluk on Lucasarts forums said it was for more testing etc the delay. As far as production goes youd b surprised how fast they can pump the game out on cd etc.

 

I remember When Star Wars galaxies was in beta. We were all testing it and figuring we had months before release. like 2 weeks before they released it they said guess what games going live. They had over 400,000 units made within those 2 weeks shipped and sold. Now a days they can mass produce this stuff easy.

[Erzwo]

The two weeks sounds like a little problem.

 

Let us think what it could be.

 

Some long DVD nights? Maybe

Old Westwood members = long nights/Days/week with Tiberian Sun in MP on some old Systems

Or they only want some day off to relax.

[Phantom_pff]

lets see then, 1 day to load up supplys and get the origonal verson of the game, 1 day to produce a few thousend, 2-3 days shipping. if my math is about right the game will be ready to be produces on (or about) Feb. 14th (give or take a day or 2)

[vasuba_pff]

Lucasarts back in 03 with Galaxies said they had capacity to make 100,000 CDs a Day. Im sure they could do that with EAW too. so they could if they wanted wait 3-4 days before release to get all the cds made and shipped

[noian]

nooooooooooooooooooooooooo,

just found out now:(

As long its a bug free game, i'll be happy

swbf2 had like 20 bugs and was missing some things because it was rushed.

Edit: Kill the guy with the Japanese kid show for a sig.

Galaxies is so messed up its not worth playing. I played it until I got my yacht then it went down hill. My bad for responding but well its true the game sucks.

No arguement from me on that one im a sucker tho and been there since. youll find a pm on the lucasforums about that too replying to a thread you started

[HarkDawg]

edit: (so simple to edit posts )

No such thing as a bug free game... all software has bugs of some sort

[Ghostly_Substance]

[Darth Vader]

oh well, at least it's still february, this means they're probably going to fix something and maybe to add something... new maps and maybe characters...
