You think another delay? Don't hope so. But I agree Chipper need to update it soon... It is intended to give joy, not irritation.

Reason BIS crew on vacation? Maby, but couldn't they say that in an blog update that william was away for a while, or something. smile_o.gif

Game 2 progress is not related to arma. 2 different teams are working of game 2 and arma. One does not affect the other, and I think arma will be released as scheduled. nener.gif

That's contradictory isn't it? If there aren't any release dates then they can't be put back? tounge2.gif

As it happens BIS have never delayed the release of Armed Assault, the lack of a publisher has done that.

Thats not true, ArmA had a release date of Q4 2005, but BIS decided to move it back to H1 2006 and work on the game more which was then moved back to Q3 2006 which seems unrealistic at this stage. Publisher or not the estimated release was delayed.

Chicken and egg. You can't release without a publisher and BIS never had a publisher. We can't know that Armed Assault wouldn't have been released last year if they had found a publisher.

The fact that BIS continue to work until they find a publisher is as much to do with making the game more attractive to publishers. If they don't find a publisher for another year then they will continue to work on it for that year. If one had been found last year we would have got what was originally planned, OFP:E for the PC.

The estimated release dates are meaningless really, the game is ready and was ready. If BIS added 6 months to the ETA tomorrow, it would be because they can't sell the current game and they believe it will take 6 months of work to make it even more saleable.
