Does anyone really think DF:UW will release Nov. 20th?

I'm pretty sceptical that it will, I wouldn't be surprised if it falls to q1 2013. I hope it does release in November so I can play it sooner.

    It would be nice to see it on Nov. 20, but we shall see...

    Honestly I wouldn't be surprised at all if they push it back. This is AV after all. It would be a pleasant surprise if they actually launch it on the 20th.

    They only pushed the release date back for Darkfall one time, and it was less than a month.
  • TorlukTorluk Member Posts: 162

    Considering they didn't even make their deadline for releasing the announcement on time*, I'm thinking there is a high probability we will be waiting a bit longer than the scheduled release date.

    I'm being highly optimisitic in thinking that it will release on time.  If it doesn't I believe it will release shortly there after.  Maybe a month or so later at most.

    I am excited for DF 2.0 but less than 2 months out and not a single video of the game.  This right here leads me not to get my expectations up for a Nov. 20th release date.
  • kuntakintaykuntakintay Member Posts: 44
    the game not releasing no the 20th isnt even a thought in my mind right now, i am looking forward to the 20th and hopefully the game will be out then, because my anticipation for this game is ridiculously high and it would suck to have to wait longer

    Although skeptical whenever Aventurine has given a hard/firm release date they have always stuck by it.  Its when they give an eta/estimate that you need to worry and then know for sure they will miss it.
  • OnigodOnigod Member UncommonPosts: 756
    The release date for Darkfall was right. why wouldnt it be for Darkfall UW?  they only think aventurine always fails at is release stuff on their said ETA date. nov 20th is not a ETA.  so its here 20th november.

    Actually you have a valid point here. Although they do have some videos on their website of some graphic upgrades they have been adding over the passed few months. Check out their website.

    I don't see the release date getting pushed back. Had they announced the game years before release, ok, but here it's just 2 months. At this point I'm pretty sure everything is already planned carefully for them to deliver on time. They wouldn't have announced it for so soon if they were still working on fundamental stuff. At least I hope so.

    I don't think they will push back release. This isn't a new game built totally from scatch. This is the same team and the infrastructure is already in place.

    I'm a little bit skeptical about the launch date too, especially since we haven't heard anything about closed beta yet. Not even a peep. There's enough new coding and enough new features that internal testing can't be nearly enough. I wouldn't be surprised if they launch beta on November 20th tbh. That being said, I still have some faith that they'll launch the actual game on 11/20. I'm just not holding my breath.

    This is AV... so I would not bet even a penny on the date set... they have somewhat of a track record lol.

    That said, this was an actual "press" release not some obscure forum/blog post, and furthermore, it's an exact date, not ETA (ETA in AVs terms means -/+ 2 years... DF2010 anybody?), so I have high hopes that it will in fact launch on time, however, at the same time I'm expecting a delay.

    I have the same hope and expectation as you. Though, if it is delayed, I do not believe we will see that situation repeated. I'll just be thrilled to be back in Agon before next Christmas. I will most likely be playing for many years, assuming we aren't threatened with another looming wipe of unknown magnitude. I never would have left the original DF had it not been for that unfortunate reality.

    How about you make a game then come back and let us know what can happen with a release of game, many things can happen, so who cares if they delay, things happen all the time causing delays,

    prolly a delay of 1-2 weeks but i think it wont be something dramatically
  • ChaosChestChaosChest Member UncommonPosts: 97

    I think if everything goes as planned AV will allow the purchase and download of the game on nov 20th.. but.. the servers won't go live until nov 27th.

    But realistically, AV has a track record of delays and no communications. So it wouldnt be a surpise to see Nov 20th be pushed back to Dec 20th, However that would also be a bad time as that is when AV goes on 2 weeks holiday where no work gets done. So Possibly a Jan 20th release date .
