Yup, we wont be seeing 8.2 any time soon. Typical developers hype, we all know the worst case of all, Duke Nukem Forever. But there are so few games released actually on time, and for a free game such as this... No hope.

Hmm yes, kind of strange to make only a full download available. And then, to make things even more problematic, ONE file of such proportions that the rest of the Internet probably "bends" around it according to Einsteins theory of relativity.
A patch would be nice, both to conserve Matrix' bandwidth and people's time. Or possibly the file could be downloaded in portions of 100MB, meaning most people could complete one each day.

By the way, I don't care, because I got the new connection!
Also, for good measure, maybe I should add that this will indeed be highly interesting.

Some posts indicate that yes it is done, and it just needs to be wrapped up and set up for downloads.
But we all know how long these things take...
I estimate probably mid June, or couple days less.

Sorry for the confusion my previous post may have caused.[;)]

Steel Panthers is God, and Matrix Games' staff are His prophets...
Then, don't worry, the Messiah will come and His reign will begin...

It would be a nice way to respect those that fell, but I still bet on mid-June. It seems the most likely one, considering the information gathered. The fact that 8.2 got ready at programming stage is great and all, but it takes loads of time after that to get it actually out in the public.
Respect those that fell sixty years ago.

Yeah, I recommend that you guys get out your copies of "Band of Brothers", "Saving Private Ryan" and "The Longest Day". I'm giving gaming a break for the moment, and reflecting on the real men and women who changed the world all those years ago. [&o]

I am fortunate enough to own a 1944 Inglis manufactured Bren Mk.II that was taken into action by Canadian troops. On the 60th anniversary of its baptism, I shall be saluting ALL the brave men who fought and fell, and hope that their sacrifice has taught us all something, and was not in vain.

Just started college? Well, what you are majoring in? I've missed you around here. I'd forgotten you were so young. Jeez, I'll be turning 47 in ten days, but I'm raising a 7-year old daughter. My dear wife is 32. Between the two of them, my gaming and my love for rock n roll, I'll never grow old, at least mentally. It's good to hear from you, Bullet Magnet. 8.2 is just around the corner--you're gonna love it.
