Oh ok, but I thought I was retard?

Only one hour left on my side of the planet, though we are at GMT+1 here, so west of the US still has about 8? hours to go...

Well, as long as it's still March somewhere in the world, it should still count. So I guess they still have a good 14 hours to go

The site time when logged out says 9:15 PM and I assume that's in the UK. I'm US Eastern time and UK is 4 hours ahead of us.

I just hope we get an update soon to tell us when the new release date is going to be and that it's just days or weeks away and not months.

That would be nice - we all could go to sleep without the feeling of missing something...

Yeah, otherwise buzzzzz and mohawk'll start working out the minutes left.

I'd say that 5 pm US Pacific time is the latest time that would make any *commercial* sense to me. And it's already past 3 pm there. So my guess is it ain't coming today

I used to get this feeling in my youth when a girl didn't show up. I'd hang around, think of all the reasons she might be late etc. etc. Based on that experience I think it's time to stop waiting, go home and get drunk...

I think we're past "commercial sense" for a release now, we would have known by now I'd have thought.

I'd like to see a stable, functional release, when its ready. We've been privy to TG2's development for over two years, seen its ups and down but the rest of the world has stood back considering it not viable for its uses because of its steep learning curve and its stated unfinished nature. Although this is not our baby we do have an investment in it and we all would like to see the best for TG2 and Planetside. I'd be real happy to see a stable final beta in the next few weeks with a commercial launch at SIGGRAPH or some similar venue. That way we could benefit from a fully working copy of TG2, participate in final Bug squashing and Planetside could get a release at a time that would make more commercial sense. But finally if it ain't ready please don't release it

Just my 2p worth

Good luck PS

LOL I know oh so well

I'm not going to count minutes, don't worry.

I would like to hear from PS though, like "Of course we're not going to make it, but we'll give you a small update and some free trees anyways", or perhaps "Surprise! We scared you didn't we? But we made it to the last second of the month to release, and here it is!".

Something, anything, but just tell us what's going on. I don't mind waiting longer for the release, I'm rendering anyway.

Zylot · March 31, 2009, 06:40:50 PM

Yeah, i think we're do for some kind of update on the situation.
