If it comes out next week!
If it does (indications are yes! )....
What will you be doing next week ( and next weekend ) ??
My wife went on a trip to NY and left the kids ( 3 ) with me this weekend for 5 days. Last weekend she was at dance camp for my daughter. And the week before that she was in Dallas with my family for the weekend.
So - I havn't seen her for the last three weekends and I have been stuck at home with kids the last two weekends...
So.... when she gets home I'm sending the kids to the inlaws for 3 hours ( not like I'll need 3 hours [:D] ) - and then I'm going to lock myself in my office with a cooler of beer and cokes and sandwiches and WITP for the rest of the weekend!!
That's my plan anyway - actually, I'll probably get stuck going to 4th parties, doing yard work - going on a picnic - and will get lucky to get even 10 min alone with my wife!!

RE: If it comes out next week!
First....no, no, no, NO! [:-] Its *when* it comes out next week, not *if* [;)]
As to what i'll do, it will probably be something along the lines of filling the fridge, bolting all doors and windows, then sitting down until i drop (which probably wont be too long seeing that i'll probably forget ever going to the fridge, hehe) [:D]

RE: If it comes out next week!
Not me[:(] I had two free weekends, now she(wife)wants to go some place for the 4th of july. So it looks as if i won't be hiting the beaches. Maybe they'll have it up to sell to the rest of us and not just the few who were able to make it to origins. Going on a a trip in 3 weeks, with the wife again, so time is important to me. I wished they had released it to everyone. Oh well, ill take in a fire works show. Enjoy your 4th guys.[8|]

That's one big advantage of being English....no need to do anything special on July 4th. Course, it only applies once in your lifetime when something happens on the 3rd like the greatest PC game ever appearing, which doesn't happen often. It's also an advantage of being a teacher..6 weeks holiday starting on the 16th!!!!!!
Incidentally, who decided on the web cam idea? For 3 days I get either a message saying too many people are using it, or I get a view of tarpaulin covered boxes at 2 am, then finally I get to watch someone buy WITP when I cannot........is all this supposed to be good for my soul or something????? Just release the game in such a way that those of us outside the US can buy it. I bought UV on the day of release from Duchet Computers in England, got it a day later... I was one of the first playing it. NOT THIS TIME!!!!![:@]
Mind you, I've been waiting 20 years for this, so what's a day or two. Anyone remember the promise of Pacific Tide? At least this time I know the game exists.[:)][:)][:)]

RE: If it comes out next week!
I understand completely. We have the time now , we are on the forums after all.[:D] But i agree with ya IanLister i don't like the way they released the game. I have the greatest respect for the guys at Matrix, i really, really do but the way they released WitP to those who could make it to origins and not to guys as a whole left a bad taste in my mouth. I only buy from two game companies Battlefront and Matrix no one else else gets my dollars. And i like you have waited many years for a game like this. However we lived thru the years without it and we will live thru the years with out it if we were to never buy it.[:(] I guess i am feeling sorry for my self.[;)]

I was quite interested to see this post. I too am pretty much loyal to these two companies, although I also like Horse & Musket. Sometimes it's hard to tell if other companies are patronized by forum members. It certainly would be nice if other publishers would release the number of very interesting titles that Matrix does. I love Combat Mission but Battlefront doesn't have the numbers of exciting titles that Matrix does.
Anyhow, I reserve judgement on their method of release this time, until I see how long it will take to receive a CD. Digital Download probably isn't such a good idea for me, dialup, and something is going on with my computer that everytime I'm online for long at all I pick up spyware. I have several anti-spyware programs, so it gets caught and removed quickly, but still aggravates the hell out of me.
RE: If it comes out next week!
Spyware!!! Don't you just love it? I have a plan for dealing with spyware.....one of the first times I played UV I had two PTs put a torpedo each into the Musashi off Lunga Roads, and then the following day P39s from Henderson bombed it to oblivion[:D][:D]
Just let me know where the spyware comes from and I and the small boys will deal with it.................when I get the game[;)]

And I get to order it then... It won't be here until we leave for vacation - and this is not an ordinary vacation, so I can't take it with me. We have to escort my Mother-in-Law to be interred with my Father-in-Law. So, I won't see the game until the end of the month - except that is when the Pastor's school starts. Anyone for August?

RE: If it comes out next week!
Hoorah!!! let's sink the damn spyware.
On the serious side, looks like legislation regarding it is close to being actual law. High fines and prison time for some types of infractions.
So anyone have any idea how it is that Matrix can publish so many great titles while most publishers only have one or two? I don't know how I'm going to afford all of the Matrix games that should be coming out soon that I want.

RE: If it comes out next week!
i have 2 days of vaction all lined up after the july 5 holiday. this week please!!!!
RE: If it comes out next week!
As I was laid off last week I find myself with lots of time. Hopefully I will be employed by July but I expect to be able to devote serious time to WITP when it's released. And I will buy it despite no job, it is actually cheaper to buy WITP and stay home and play than go out to the movies or eat out, in the long run. And my significant other understands this game is what I want to do with spare time the next few years or so. [;)]

Sorry to hear about your layoff, hope it's of short duration and glad to see you're making positive light of it. My own employer (the County of SD) recently laid off some folks too, but I was fortunate to not be one of them.
