Thanks Eric. I guess.
OOOPS, won't be out this week.
I suspected that they were going to try to fix the "larvae' (not big enough to be bugs)
The selfish people who went to origins just couldn't keep their keyboards quiet, so we all get to wait.

Crap, I KNEW this would happen (bugs found after the Origins release delaying DD a week or more.) I had a friend going to Origins that I could have given some money to to buy it for me, but based on the overwhelming impression given that the DD would be a few days after Origins I decided not to trouble him (he was busy running long games the entire time).

Thanks for the reply Erik but could you give us some idea of when DD will be available so I can take a shower? Also my wife wants to know if I'm going to go to work this week. All I'm looking for is a ballpark. You don't even have to be right. After all, this game was first promised for last spring.

Guys, all I can say is we're working as fast as we can. If we can get it out today (and we're trying to), it will be today, if not we're still aiming for a guaranteed release before the end of the week. Things are coming together but we have to make sure everything's squared away before giving you all the green light.

Regards,

- Erik

Ouch - you figured us out! True, i have not really had any problems it was a conspiracy to just post fictitious problems to delay the dd release so we could get the jump on non-Origins folks. We got together at Origins and decided this was such a great game we wanted to keep it to ourselves as long as we possibly could. We didn't know how to do it and then Eric suggested making up fake bugs. We thought you wouldn't find out. But alas...

I agree!

It will probably be at least 24 hours AFTER I buy it before I can really start to play anyway. But I can dig into the manual immediately. [:D]

Plus, who cares about DirectX bugs? I just look at it as another opportunity to debug my hardware drivers!

Thank you for the info. I don't mind (I do really) the delays, just so long as the spice (oops wrong topic) flows.

Send a third stage guild navigator... Oops the tension is causing all this short circuits in my brain.

Good news. Sounds like Starshatter is on the same schedule. Wonder if they'll go up at the same time. This from the SS board:
Starshatter will be available for direct digital download before the end of this week and also available in DVD case boxed format in early August.

Before I PBEM as Japan I need time to practice, so I'd probably want to start as Allies. (That is easy: Nimitz to all "RUN")[:)]

Sounds good. A training game. What scenario?
