Attention! Please Read. No Beta at end of August.

Zedblade · August 19, 2009, 11:59:10 PM

Sorry to disappoint everyone, but there will be no beta released at the end of August. I'm not going to get into it here, but just know the press release is wrong and at the most, we will be hitting a non-multiplayer alpha by the end of august that WILL NOT be released to the public. I can't give you an ETA on when a Beta will happen, so don't ask.

Hah. This should've been said long ago.
Now I say: How can I help to get the release faster? (I don't have any skills developed enough to do technical things :/)

Then you can't

LMAO @ last 2 posts!

And I'm fine with the game taking a long time. It's understandable, you guys are limited on resources. There's no reason we can't be patient to be honest. Take your time, but I think we'd all still like to hear about your progress come September. Not that you wouldn't tell us.

Ah, fuck. I knew it was too good to be true :/

Take your time guys, I'd rather have a quality effort that a rushed job like UBI does.

The point for me still is that we'll have a game that was an effort of a few pillar community members because as a whole we're disappointed with how UBI went with the direction of the franchise. Whatever we get and whenever we get it doesn't mean as much to me as getting something we like and appreciate in the end.

I greatly appreciate the efforts you all have put into this.

Too bad that this mis-information is many syndicated over several "game-news" sites and blogs.

It's gonna be fun seeing all the threads asking for the beta

I agree with the above posts. Take as long as you need, don't rush to get a beta out just because everyone wants one. I honestly don't think people will be turned away because of this. If anything it will make the wait easier knowing you will be releasing a better product instead of rushing something. It's ready when it's ready, simple as that.

To be honest, a game is never finished. There is always something to add or change in the end. If you aim for a deadline (ofcourse not by the end of august) you will have a better product. Ofcourse that is if the deadline is reasonable.

So let's say there would be a alpha/closed beta near the end of january it should be a better product then if you would work on it till it's finished which is never.

"will be no beta released at the end of August"

What? What am I paying you guys in Hot Pockets for?
In all seriousness take your time and work hard. Just try not to "take your time" to the extent Ubisoft Montreal has.

Don't open an old can of worms that that was sealed a long time ago , hence they can't do anything because everything is made from scratch.

Do you hear that?

That was the sound of a joke flying way over your head.

Haha! Nothing can fly over my head, I'm IN MY HOUSE! Good try, loser. :D
