Game Status

Lets please not try and shred each other over the game state here. We are doing a lot of planning on the final stretch now and it is indeed *possible* that we may delay the game. Generally speaking we shy away from announcing dates at all for this reason. People read too much into dates and think they are set in stone. We adjusted the alpha date by 3 weeks and we didn't adjust the release date... We will more than likely announce final schedule details in mid-november which isn't too far away. Currently we are going through a process to make sure understand everything needed for ship, prioritizing and scheduling.

As far as budget goes I'm not a fan of talking money with you guys for lots of reasons. However, I will say that the game went to #1 on Steam when we released beta, we've just hired a bunch of new people to work on the game and we do some enough financial flexibility to adjust schedule. So the pace that the team is setting is going to accelerate over the coming months with these new people. We currently have a dozen engineers working on the team and you'll start seeing some results from the new people as they ramp up.

So peace out, chill out and relax. The game will be done with it's done, we have the resources to finish and we tightening up the ship for the final ride through the storm.

PS They just cancelled C&C... wtfbbq

You guys scared them off! ;p

"PS They just cancelled C&C... wtfbbq" whats this?

Looking forward to the next iteration!

It means the upcoming Command and Conquer game was canceled.

Mike

Thank you very mutch for the information, this clears up allot of questions, and it's good to hear the future is in good hands and we have nothing to worry about.

Thanks again Neutrino!

I'm glad to hear you guys are doing well! =)

I'm sure we're all looking forward to seeing what you do as you move on with the game.

Well done all and I see C&C cancelled on CVG. site to bad.

I vote we put Neutrino in charge of the game, he sounds reasonable.

Oh wait...

I'm pretty sure that was Neutrino, not Garat.

Mike

I didn't even know there was one in the pipeline! I thought (obviously) that's what C & C meant. Luckily for Uber... or maybe it couldn't compete with PA in the RTS market! XD

Yey

How much would it cost for Uber to buy over that studio (Victory Games)? lol

EDIT: the rights to the C & C franchise

sticky the thread

BTW on the UI stuff we've been working through the style guide for the final UI. This means, you guessed it, the entire UI is being redone.

Anyway I've been *extremely* busy over the last few weeks so I haven't spent as much time in here as I wanted to. Heading out of the office over to the final day of soundtrack recording now.

And guys, seriously, chill out, we know the game isn't finished yet. Quit imaging the worse case scenario and start imagining the best case scenario. Then we'll meet in the middle

Omg. PA-style game with CnC silliness/story and ridiculous/awesome units?

Yes please.

YAY

Mod -- im claiming THE C&c MOD.. KNights gonna hate me *jokes*

I hate to drag you away from you tirelessly and diligently working on the game, but from me and many others, thanks for keeping us updated on this particular issue.

Thanks for the update neutrino! You guys are great!

Edit - Now I can't wait for the new UI!
