CaptainHaplo 1 Posted September 13, 2012 Dram - I am familiar with packaging. If I can assist BI with this (for free, no less) - let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Appogee 1 Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) How big is the BI team? Only one person knows how to fix the installer, and he's allowed to be ''away'' during the week when customers are due to be installing?! I don't want to be difficult, but to be frank, I'd lose my job if I didn't plan ahead to avoid that kind of bottleneck. Anyway, roll on next week. Waited this long, may as well wait a bit more I guess. Edited September 13, 2012 by Appogee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingnl 0 Posted September 13, 2012 Monday it is then. It's good to get more information. Now we aren't in the dark about the delay and can look forward to Monday. I'm still glad we'll get a beta3, even when the game will be released at the end of this month! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tortuosit 486 Posted September 13, 2012 Monday it is then. It's good to get more information. Now we aren't in the dark about the delay and can look forward to Monday. I looked forward to last week, beginning of this week, next Monday, ... I'm still glad we'll get a beta3, even when the game will be released at the end of this month! Hopefully this will be the case. For the record: I HATE WAITING! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted September 13, 2012 I don't want to be difficult, but to be frank, I'd lose my job if I didn't plan ahead to avoid that kind of bottleneck. And how exactly does anyone plan ahead for a week like this week? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedra 11 Posted September 13, 2012 I think that the dog ate the installer! It could be worse - he could have said Tuesday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dram 14 Posted September 13, 2012 It could be worse - he could have said Tuesday. We don't want to keep our players in the dark, so it is better then not saying anything. Again, very sorry for the delays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evmolpos 10 Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) You mach will cost to your installer guy to come back ASAP? Edited September 13, 2012 by Sungsam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anton-korduan 10 Posted September 13, 2012 Ähm... sorry for asking, Dram but: The Installer-Expert, your College, is hopefully not one of the guys, being arrested?

Appogee 1 Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) And how exactly does anyone plan ahead for a week like this week? Well, on my team, I ensure there are a minimum of two people per core delivery capability, and I ensure they work together to schedule their absences not to occur concurrently. That way, projects keep moving forward as per the project plan and milestones, even when some people are away. That's why I asked how big the BI team is. I mean, if it's 'one person per capability' small, then it's understandable that you will always be exposed to a critical unexpected absence of some kind. EDIT: Anyway, putting two and two together with the news reports, my thoughts are with your OS devs. Hopefully, what has clearly been an innocent misunderstanding will be sorted out promptly and this will be just a great adventure story for them to tell their grandkids one day. The CCGM release can obviously wait while that more important matter is sorted out. Edited September 13, 2012 by Appogee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tortuosit 486 Posted September 13, 2012 Promptly? In Greece? From experience in my family I can tell you: that will not be the case. It's 3rd world in terms of justice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scareya 1 Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) We don't want to keep our players in the dark, so it is better then not saying anything. This approach is greatly appreciated, Dram. We (well, at least most of us :rolleyes:) can handle unavoidable delay. We just don't like to be kept in the dark. But obviously you know that... Thanks.

The CCGM release can obviously wait while that more important matter is sorted out. Is there anything we can do? Such as raise awareness of the situation to the our own country's press and other on-line communities, I bet if we all put our heads together we could form a plan...
