Release date announcement #2!

[Quarto]

Standoff's second episode is coming...

August 10th, 2005.​

 

[Sarty]

Excellent! can't wait.

 

[Starkey]

Yay! Great news!




(not that I didn´t know that already )

 

[2fb]

at last we can see what happends!!!!

 

[Icefire69]

I need a time machine...just for a few days (or month for the complete episodes)

 

[ChrisReid]

There's plenty to do in the mean time. Everyone should replay the first episode now to catch up.

 

[2fb]

IIRC replaying episode 1 with episode 2 installed add E2 stuff to the E1, is that right? does i will make EP1 experience diferent?

 

[Eder]

Yes, Ep 2 will update a lot of things in Ep 1.

 

[Youngblood]

Let me at it!! Let me at it!! Let me at it!! i dont think i can contain myself!!!

 

[Sphynx]

While the wait will only have been about 8 months, it has felt much, much longer. That's how much I enjoyed the first installment. Thank you Eder and all team members!

 

[Chicken]

Now I've got a better reason to finish Episode 1, or else I'll just wait for Episode 2 and play it all the way through for a gratifying experience.

 

[Ptarmigan]

I await Episode 2 of Stand Off.

Yes it does. However putting aesthetics aside its really only noticeable in two missions which got noticeable harder. A Gladius without ITTS is a true artists ship...

August 10th? I guess this is one CIC birthday no WC fan will forget.

Eder will probably remember it best, though, as the one CIC birthday where he didn't have to make a ship (or package one).

HA! I bet those red blocks are "quaking in their bug boots."

 

[Quarto]

Yeah, Eder's really relieved that he only has to make a new episode this year instead of a ship.

 

[Eder]

Yes, episodes are much easier to come up with.

 

[Tempest]

Where'd I put my sarcasm detector?

 

[Iceblade]

True, but the episode was going to come out anyway.

 

[Quarto]

Yeah, but the episode could come out on August 10th, Christmas, or some other random date like March 13th 2027. No matter how smooth things are going, once a release date is set, it inevitably turns out that there's more still left to do than you expected. No such thing as a project that gets done without a pre-release crunch-time.
