Release Date???

[Cavemaniac]

I was watching a Dr. Who last night ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01rryzz ) and he had a great line that I'm going use:
"I can't tell the future, I only work there".

Was it a 'modern' Dr Who? ie less than 25 years old?

If so, then it could be a wonderful misquote/homage to Star Trek where Captain Kirk responds to the mocking comment that he must be from 'outer space' with (IMHO) the beat comeback ever - 'No, I'm from Iowa, I just work in space'.

Would Dr.Who be able to see the release date from the future? :p

I think it's a quote from an episode just a week or so ago.

Really would like to know a time frame that it will roughly be released. (1 month, 2 month, 3 month, .. ect)

Give it up. It's been made perfectly clear that it will be done when it's done. Good software takes a lot of time and release dates are just targets.

Just give yourself over to eternal hope. I get up every day and a little part of me thinks "Maybe Creeper World 3 will drop today"

One day I will be right, and everything will be wonderful.

Time passes no matter what You do, so don't waste what You have now wanting for what will be.  One day You will have it, and it will be awesome.

Can't say exactly how long it will take, but try to think of the things that still have to be done (this is based on stuff on the blog, NOT from the beta group):
It is still alpha (look at the lower-left corner of the main menu in the video's) so beta isn't released yet. In CW2 beta took a month, so for CW3 I also expect one month of beta testing.
In 'The Bulk', there are only a few story missions, but there will be a lot more. How long would it take to create all story missions? A single mission with CRPL and dialog? How many story missions will there be?
Again talking about 'The Bulk' video. There is no score submission system and no DMD. How long would it take/have taken to code that? Are there more missing features?
We know that you don't need to wait for an update before you can start creating maps. So the map submission system has to be made before the game is released. How long would that take? How long did that take in CW2?

I hope you now have a better idea of when the game will be released. :)

Thank you, J.

I'm not going to speculate when it will be released. All I know is, I can't wait for it to come out. Looks amazing. :)

Hopefully it'll come at or before summer, so I can go on a CW3 marathon.
No bathroom breaks, no sleeping, no nothing except gaming for days on end!

Every time someone posts to this thread, or I see "virgilw" as the last poster on any thread, lyrics from West Side Story start going through my head.

The air is humming,
And something great is coming!
Who knows?
It's only just out of reach,
Down the block, on a beach,
Maybe tonight . . .
