kipanderson Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 Hi, I fully understand and appreciate why the four at BTS do not wish to be drawn into long discussions regarding which features are in CMBB and why some are not. However, now that we are into the fall, a “current best guess” as to which month CMBB is most likely to be released would be great. I am sure all your fans understand our philosophy of “it is done when it is done”. None of us wish to rush you. Just an estimate of when you “may” be able to release the game, if things go well. November, December, January? Thanks for your time, All the best, Kip. Had to edit the post because I had mistakenly phrased the question rather sarcastically. Shows what can happen when one is in a rush. Anyway, I am on BTS side when it comes to them being careful about giving a date, but just a guess as to the month, with all due qualifications, would be great [ 09-05-2001: Message edited by: kipanderson ] [ 09-05-2001: Message edited by: kipanderson ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanonier Reichmann Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 Well I'd say you have already answered your own question and saved BTS the problem of confirming when the game is "NOT" going to be released. Regards Jim R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronf Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 probably 03/2002 - just a rough guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 Last spring there was talk of an October release date. For all we know the team is picking the graphic for the CD cover as we speak! May I suggest Galliard black italic as a suitable font? Optimistic, ain't I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Gustav Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 Actually, I'd recommend Roadie SSK as the font of choice. A very nice stencil font. Now that I'm not fishing anymore, CM can't be released on the eighth day of the week, so I'm guessing that it'll happen on a day ending with "Y."

The Commissar Posted September 6, 2001 Share Posted September 6, 2001 Im an optimist by nature (we'll NEVER get this frekin' game!), so I'll wager a guess (a hope?) for a late December 01/early January 02 release. BTS can take its vacation after it finishes swimming in their newly collected riches a week after the release! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruno Weiss Posted September 6, 2001 Share Posted September 6, 2001 Remember, as a wise man once said; "There are no friendly questions, only unfriendly answers". My guess is, that BTS will bog down doing research on the single prototype vehicles like the Putzmobileski41z, and der Royal Bunkenschleper super bunker mover, while attempting to incorporate procedures from obscure training manuals recently discovered from the ever popularly demanded Transylvanian 1033rd Unarmored Spearfishing Division, and as a result the release date will slip well into the 23rd Century.

Capitalistdoginchina Posted September 6, 2001 Share Posted September 6, 2001 The Demo will be released on December 7th (Pearl Harbour anniversary). Full game release on February 3rd at 14.06 GMT CDIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runyan99 Posted September 6, 2001 Share Posted September 6, 2001 Some one at BTS stated that (nearly?) all of the vehicle models were done, but they are still doing textures. I also believe they are still testing and implementing features. Scenarios are probably still in development. It is now September 5..... I say 1 December. A "Red October" release on 25 October would be much nicer, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcm1947 Posted September 6, 2001 Share Posted September 6, 2001 Well anybody that's anybody knows it'll be December 17. I don't know how they knew my birthday. Somebody from the board must have told them. Those guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Gustav Posted September 6, 2001 Share Posted September 6, 2001 The major factor in the release of CMBB will be the date when Steve and Charles run out of sunblock and rum, forcing them to return from the Caribbean island that they bought with the money earned from CMBO.

Shatter Posted September 6, 2001 Share Posted September 6, 2001 I just got this months issue of CGW and the release date for CM2, was listed as fall this year. But who know they could be behind on the info. [ 09-06-2001: Message edited by: Shatter ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
