The next 3 days will decide when we have the game. [Solved: False] Ok, The next 37 days now...

[Stuckenschmidt]

Yeah, BT's sale will make Sega's baby look bad.
Seriously, I've cleared my 2018 for BT and I'm a huge Total War fan. Nothing on the horizon will remotely tempt me away from the periphery.

I`d love to agree here, but I already pre-ordered TW Britannia. And someday in the second half of 2018 the new DLC for American Truck Simlator gets released, so that`s that.

The thing is that 24th April is also a Frostpunk's date of release. Thus, I hope for early April to see a Battletech (aside of my obvious wish to ride a meach ASAP)

 

[Dmon]

Frostpunk on 24th and Pillars of Eternity 2 on 8th May so BT is already up against some heavy hitters for my time.

 

[Stuckenschmidt]

Frostpunk does look interesting indeed, but my game time is limited, so I have to pass on that one.

 

[commuterzombie]

Yeah, I think I'd be giving either TW Britannia or Frostpunk a try if I hadn't already kickstarted Battletech. As it is I'll wait for them to be in a Steam sale. On the plus side it means that (for Total War especially) there should be fewer bugs for me to contend with when I do get around to them!

 

[Stuckenschmidt]

I am looking forward to TW:Britannia. The first TW game I am buying since RTW2. Attila and the Warhammer stuff was not really to my liking.

 

[Exemplar Voss]

Will there be cake?

There is always cake.

But... the cake is not for you.

 

[Horseman]

So April or perhaps May?

When It's Done (TM)

Sadly my wallet is doing battle over those 3 games right now and Frostpunk seems to be slowly winning...

And THAT's why I hope for early April release of Battletech. I need to convince my friends to but it before other titles, especially such heavy-hitters like Total War or Frostpunk

 

[Exemplar Voss]

Frost-punk as a 'heavy hitter' is stretching things more than a bit. It's a weirdly niche city builder.
The TW Saga game is more direct competition, but historical, real time and...well, 'total war' aspects can cause some audience variation.

 

[kimek0986]

It may be city builder, but Frotpunk gained a lot of fame and attention already, I may be wrong, of course, but Id say this game would get it's share of fan's love and attention.

Oh, it may be a PS 4 release, but 20th April sheduled as a day when a new God of War game would see the light

There is always cake.
But... the cake is not for you.

Oh, I see, it's out of stock, that's all. Is the 'death' out of stock too, like the cake?

I'm lost now. I thought we were doing the correct version of the Portal meme: The cake isn't a lie, it's just not for you. (If you beat the game and watch the credits, there is in fact cake, but its down in the bowels of the facility guarded by robots after the test subject gets tossed outside)


I didn't think about 'cake or death.' Given the lack of planes or the church of England

Inverting memes/tropes is more or less Kereminde's raison d'etre.

It's like punning, but with memes and tropes. It also helps me think laterally about things which bother me, as it gives the rest of my brain time to catch up

 

[mmurray821]

Well I have started seeing ads on FB and on game sites I visit, so it should be within the 30-45 day window of release.

Hopefully....

Well, the 26th would be in 37 days. And then we can all enjoy some stompy goodness.

My guess is it'll be released on the February 29th immediately preceding the release of Half-Life 2: Episode 3 which is itself the prologue teaser for Half-Life 3 which drops December 1st of that year.
