4th of July...isn't that when Americans get drunk, have BBQs and shoot firework, instead of sitting behind their computers doing tedious and boring bug-fixes? It's what I'd do

I'm sure that the community can deal with waiting for a bit, seeing how much trouble and work you guys have put into the game already

See the main page and you'll understand.

Can any DEV give us how many weeks until the realese ?

If I'm not mistaken I don't think eggman exactly celebrates the 4th of July where he's from.

Well, I'm an American and I didn't get drunk or have a barbecue.

I did have a bit of mead, though.

Post by **Dunehunter** » 2007-07-04 23:57

If he's Canadian, he's probably just still hungover from the 1st.

Skinwehr · Post by **Skinwehr** » 2007-07-05 00:32

Meade, really? Do you make your own or buy it? My friends and I went through a whole case on Midsummernight.

Anyway, yeah, I was under the impression that there would be a release today, then I read the thing about the smacktards revolting.

Would be epic - PR release on July 4th...

But then a certain issue arrived

Post by **Rhino** » 2007-07-05 00:50

there was never a official announcement for the 4th of july, just egg saying "I hope we can".

Untill you see a post on the front page, stating the release date then that will be the date it will get released.

The reason I asked about a possible july 4th release was this posting from Eggman in the open beta section of this forum.

Thanks again for the assistance to sort out the issues with v0.6.

JUNE 23rd UPDATE
We've released v0.607 "RC1" to open beta. Looks like we still have a couple of bugs to sort out before final release, but we should get those sorted in a private test with an 0608 build.

At this stage I'd say the v0.6 general release schedule looks like:
@ release 0607 Saturday June 23rd
+ ~8 days open beta testing = July 1st
+ ~2 or 3 days final close testing, seeding and release =

July 4th Release (or thereabouts)

We're very close to releasing and really appreciate all the great input from folks that is enabling this to be one of the most robust Project Reality releases to date.

Thanks again!

To be honest, I would love it if they would keep PR .6 another month just to incorporate a few extra things. Like the M16 scope, maybe an animation or two from the new guy....nothing that takes lots of testing though another beta. I'm fine with waiting longer to see a little more polished .6 with some nice extras. Hella I'd wait 2 months. The beta is enough of a fix for me.
