Estimated relase date

[koti]

The main page states release date as spring 2010.
We are 1 month away from summer 2010

So, may we assume that the game will be relased on E3?


PS I really really want to see this game finally.
We have been waiting for it almost 2 years now.

[Daniel]

Those two years have gone scarily fast. :butbut:

bah, two years ... i've been waiting for sequel to CC from 1994, following MartinGBell's remake from end of 2003 and waiting for BIS CC2 from the first info they will be developing it.

I think i can wait another year, if it will be worth it :)

PS: I don't know about weather in your area, but we have rainy spring here and it looks like it will stay for another half year :D So it could be released in "spring"

[Doomdark64]

well its the 9th and no sign of anything,so much for the 10th release date.

Hi all,

any chance to have a couple more info before 2011 ?

It's been 1 year since the last entry on the official site as it seems.

Cheers

Dont waste your breath, you ask for any information the piss artists who troll the boards here come up with all kinds of bull why the company wont say anything. They cant admit to themselves its bad customer relations.

Must say I feel the same way. I kind of got interested in this:yay:, then moved on as nothing is keeping me interested:( The only fact I’m on is I put it on the favourite bar at the top on my browser otherwise it would have been lost within my many favourites.

Don't listen to him. Asking here will in fact spur the devs into releasing all those secret screenshots, videos and official infos that they have been holding back for exactly this kind of request. ;)

[JdB]

And we all know that hyping up a game by releasing edited screenshots and videos along with made-up tales of non-existent features every week leads to much higher customer satisfaction after people have actually bought and played the game :j:

Just wait until they actually release information, it's always worth it with BIS.

BIS doesn't polish up the turd with marketing talk, they prefer improving the actual product through further development, so people end up buying something they are actually pleased with, rather than conning people into buying their games, then dropping all support shortly after wards.

Who's trolling now? :raisebrow:

You seem to be the only one (with the exception of cm, but his trolling is harmless).

[sav112g]

To be Fair JBD that’s what the poster said would happen. :rolleyes:

In my View justifying the lack of information due to increased product development is a poor excuse. Yes we have all seen over hyped games releasing Videos that are not even in game etc but then I find the lack of anything even more annoying and we have seen games with very little exposure because the end result is so poor as well.


Ok so the developer has a reputation that it releases better games and has poor communication (I have to take peoples word on that). You don’t need weekly updates or monthly but its embarrassing in my view that a professional development company locks itself away from the community at large.

[JdB]

It's how BIS has always operated, so I could have posted something different than what the poster was already expecting, but it wouldn't have had anything to do with reality.

It's not poor communication, it's a chosen strategy to limit communication to carefully planned marketing pushes. Not something people are used to these days, because of the internet they expect an update every month (or more). Back when I started playing games, before internet access on every PC was normal, I would be happy if I saw more than one in-depth article/news item about a game (other than the preview/review) I was thinking of buying in gaming magazines. Manipulated hyping has spoiled the gaming community.

A company like Nokia doesn't put out new promotional shots for every new cellphone it is developing every month either. Neither does Porsche for their cars, Sony for their TVs, or Microsoft for any of their products. Most marketing for products happens after they are available, not like with games, as most developers are owned by mammoth publishers who make a living out of scamming people with pre-orders of hyped up games.

[skipped1]

I'm sorry for breaking most important forum rule - don't feed the troll

Doomdark64, why are you still here? From your first post to the last, you are only whining, angry and impatient. If you accept the FACT that BIS don't post any info as long as they want, you will have much better stay here. They do not owe us anything, they don't have to release any bit of information. Even if you think you are the one buying the game, that still doesn't grant you any rights.

They are not locking themselves away. BIS is quite active right now among the community. It's just that ArmA 2 has the spotlight right now, so be patient.

[EricM]

I'm not expecting much, but a reminder from time to time to feed the hungry crowd isn't bad either...

And even if BIS is working on Arma 2, there is a dedicated team to CC.

i agree totally with you here EricM. To all the people with the "dont be impatient" line, so you think its totally professional NOT to update the main page of your games web site at least once in a YEAR?.
The bottom line is they cant be bothered to spend 10 minutes of their time to tell the public who are interested in Carrier command (NOT arma 2 as its released and being played already) that they have/havent changed the release date, or even if they are still working on it because non of the people on here who say they know how the company work actually do know, they just think they know , which is why people interested in the game want to know from the organ grinder NOT his monkey.

[ziiip]

I love BIS but yea, the PR could do way better.

[skipped1]

If they release single bit of info, you will still not be satisfied and you will want more, so BIS is not releasing anything.

Please, read one more what I wrote, I did't wrote that it is profesional or correct, it's just how bis works. Deal with it

[Big Dawg KS]

"Professional" is quite a subjective term. I've seen lots of developers that infrequently release info. If the devs don't want to release info (which is NOT the same thing as PR) than that's their incentive. Let me put it this way: I don't consider it unprofessional for them to be so quiet, and if they do step up their progress reports then I consider it a privilege. I wouldn't expect a small/independent developer to be very vocal about the progress of a project until right before its release, or maybe when a major milestone is reached. I think your expectations are based on a different kind of developer, with different priorities and incentives.

That's just it. There's not really a lot of info about the team that's working on CC. It doesn't seem like it's very large (not that BIS is anyway), but they certainly don't have the same community presence as those related to ArmA. You could push the regular PR guys for more news, but it's not clear how they're related to the project.

[sav112g]

I think the discussion flows back and forth due to fans that know the Developer and hold them in high esteem and then fans like myself that just don’t have any regard for this team.

To me it’s certainly not a privilege, that word gets thrown around too lightly its just a game Company producing a game. I can appreciate if information gets released but nothing ever does and lets face it, for a game to be in development for a certain time frame I actually think it’s a bit disrespectful to the fans to not release such information and its certainly disrespectful to think we are all going to pee our pants and loose all control and demand more and more and more like a two year old.

In my book its poor and shows a lack of interest in the community given I’ve been connected to one of the best communication franchises in Championship Manager and later Football Manager that shows even with a small dedicated team working hard with the community is of great benefit to shape the game around the very fans that will by it.

With all this lack of communication from Bis makes me concerned that they actually are arrogant enough to try and produce the game without any feedback of what the community at large thinks and would like to see in the game.


Could be just the case of the game is disappointing and there is nothing to discuss as I’ve seen that happen too.

[Bascule42]

Release? Sometime before Duke Nuken Forever...oh..wait.

Still, best things are often worth wating for.

If the stunning pics were released a year ago imagine how far the dev team is now!
There must be a reason for them not releasing any more PR, and sure, it may only take 10mins to take a few pics and a 2min in-game clip; but maybe the game just isn't ready for that type of attention yet. ;)

[SiC-Disaster]

That remark is no longer useable, Bascule :p
Considering Gearbox has finally picked up on the DNF game and are finishing it finally xD

[Grimm]

About "simple pics" : having worked in the game industry, I can tell you for sure that it is not so simple to do that on a work in progress, as the developers do not work on the entire game, but on some separate elements that haven't been put together yet. These elements are really put together during alpha stage.

Not to mention they want a good impression, half textured and incomplete units and maps dont look good. Not to mention you can take pics of coding progress :p

[sav112g]

At this point with the total lack of information ( total mistake in my mind and shows poor organisation) I think anyone would just take a small write up without pic’s if need be.

But then I’m sure someone will come on with the “ writing a small write up is not simple, it takes time and the right information has to released and edited that takes time”

Aye right!
Its called being competent in the real world.

As does posts like this Bore! :D

It still does not avoid the fact that this is a forum for a game and we have nothing to talk about. I don’t have a downer on the game as I’m one of the few that played the original and loved it.

I do however don’t enjoy the lack of anything as that bores me even more than poor come backs. I hope it changes soon on both accounts.:(

[scaper28]

I also like many others would like to know when this game will be realeased ,Im sure they could at least post something on there site or on this forum saying delay for whatever reason but dont worry the game is still going ahead and we hope to have it realeased by ..... is that to much to ask ?

[someBoy]

We will probably get a fairly precise release date when the official website is completed

[scrapser]

All things come to those who wait. I'm as anxious as the next guy but it's not interfering with my ability to make plans of any kind in my life. One day, you will be looking back on this period of time and it will be nothing but a memory. Guaranteed.

For now I satisfy myself by playing Far Cry 2.

If this is true, then one day BOHEMIA will make a console game. I am still here waiting for this to happen but it looks like I need to wait a longer time.

[scrapser]

Let's hope that happens only when console games are running at true 1080P resolution (not up-converted 720) with a thumb-sized trackball for mouse precision control and the option to attach a keyboard in place of the game controller.

I tried the new Xbox 360 Slim and was appalled by the visual quality and cheap hardware (the cd drive crapped out after only about 10 hours of play). I returned it for a full refund.

I found the thumb controllers to be inferior to mouse/keyboard control (even considering I needed to practice). You simply cannot move as fast or precisely as you can with a mouse.

[7-75 Callaghan]

The day Bohemia makes a console game is the day I stop supporting them and buying their products, because it means they have lost their original selling points. And that is coming from someone who has been a loyal customer since 2001.

[EricM]

You should have stopped when OFP elite came out then... because they already did make a console game... and you see, this didn't impacted the PC gameplay at all.

[AVIBIRD 1]

OFP was a great port. Codemasters killed the game with poor marketing and the release date was to close to the new xbox 360 coming out. The bottom line BOHEMIA will not make this game for a console if they have no support with the money from another company and I don't see that. So what should I do. I AVIBIRD 1 am giving up all hope and going to get a new PC that will run both ARMA2 and this.

Please don't tell my wife she will have my balls that I am going to spent a lot of money just to play a game but with no more hope alive.

In that case, you should build your next PC. You can get so much more bang for the buck and exactly what you want. Building a computer today is so easy, a caveman can do it.

hello,

sorry for my bad english i'm french ! This game out in the years ? I have new soon ?

thks for reply

[sav112g]

This game out in the years ?

Sorry is that " Is this game out this year?"
Désolé est ce " ; Est ce jeu dehors ce year" ?

I have new soon
j'aurai le jeu bientôt?
Sorry lost me there that makes no sense.:( Is it will I have the game soon?

Aucune date n'a été fixée pour ce jeu pourtant et l'information très petite a sorti à son sujet. C'est apparemment la manière que le réalisateur fonctionne. Aucune nouvelle nouvelles vraiment en année ou ainsi indépendamment du site Web officiel n'est en construction. Ainsi ceci indique un changement.

écossais désolés mais vous avez l'idée.

[BoneBoys]

I think he means "will the game be out this year" and will there be any new's soon.

God i love Elite.

[dontknowhow]

I'm afraid I have to join the whiners club. Playing a game that has a console port usually means small maps, low amount of units, retarded user interface and way too simple gameplay.
I hope this won't be the case.

Now, wasn't this thread about release date... :rolleyes:
