HOI Release date

[unmerged(2695)]

This morning I noticed an advert for HoI on Strategypage.com with an October release date in the US.

When is the European/Scandinavian relsease.

And have you gotten the bugs out of the beta?

Um...no.

important question. does the game have more bugs now or before beta started jk i really have to go with december as logical based on their talking as a good aim for release. it is bound to be this year as something i saw in the ck forum in a link there spoke of hoi coming out this year. if not this year then we shall all be sad and hope they release it january first

Most likely it will be out around the time EUII came out, perhaps a little later...so November/December timeframe.

I just can't wait... I've been playing full blown WIF for 10 years now and I will buy this game as soon as it comes out, lock the door of the computer room and spend winter there...

PS: if you need a new beta guy, don't hesitate to tell me

I checked with the local Electronics Boutique store at the mall yesterday. Their tracking system shows the game having a release date of November 13th.

for the love of god: a synchronised release please. Screw localisation, they'll just have to learn english like everyone else.

Isn't this a violation of your NDA ?

Sencond Think, I realy prefer an original English version than a badly translated version that make 'Cancel' when you click on 'OK' (I happened in one of my game, and this was only a bug of the french version )

Perhaps technically. But I think it's common sense to be able to say that since we're still beta-testing, we're still finding bugs.

I'll also go so far as to say we'll even be finding bugs once the game is released. No piece of software, HOI included, is 100% bug-free.

Work faster! I want the game in November.

Welcome to the forum friefrench.

You noted that he registered half a year before you, right?

180 or so OT posts, and one devilish counted one..


To pretend a topic, Sweden will probably have to wait until next year, as usual

(I won't pay double just to get it faster, so I'll have to wait)

Not even NotePad ?

Without joking, I think it's why it's important for game devellopers to have some community around a game, they'll find bugs more easily, and so they will be corrected sooner.

 

[unmerged(5664)]

Well, I suppose it's possible to create a "Hello World" program without a bug, but not something with the complexity of HOI.

I think Paradox has created a marvellous community around EU2 and has done wonders for introducing new features and fixing bugs, and I'd expect that reputation to continue.

Whoops! Nope, didn't notice that.

I don't think I could wait that long....watching everyone else chatting away about how cool the game is and all.

Yeah, buts thats just some guys guess.

 

[unmerged(7996)]

Yeah, but it's the guess of a large software distribution chain spread throughout the US. Probably a little better than my uninformed one. The sales attendant and I looked in the computer together to find the listed release date.

Edit: Perhaps EB is big enough that Strategy First and Paradox would give them a "expect it here" date. Just passing on the information I found.

Santa: 'Hohoho, what do you want to do for Christmas?'

You: 'Kick Germany with Sweden in WW2 in HOI'

Santa: 'Hohoho?'

Arrgh. In Germany/Switzerland EUII came out 5 to 6 months later.
