Confirmed release dates and countries.

Recommended Posts

I just recieved a reply from IDEA concerning ArmA's status in Australia (being from the Gold Coast, I'm very concered).

I´m glad to confirm we already have a publisher for Australia - unfortunetely I cannot confirm more details at the moment, but there will be an announcement very soon.

That was from IDEA Games marketing. So there you go. yay.gif

Thanks for that. My squads waiting for this one so if you get any more info on an Aussie release please let us know here.

I'm surprised they didn't find an Aussie-publisher earlier. Isn't Australia BIS' biggest market, if you look at the ratio of bought games/player? AFAIK, Australia was the only place in the world were people in general enjoyed Elite and didn't whine about bad graphics.

Hmmm... This sounds good... How much does a sheep-farm cost these days? tounge2.gif

Wonder about other Southern Hemisphere countries, e.g. South Africa. I suspect I will be downloading the version sold online. Too bad we pay for bandwidth here, are restricted to a few gigs per month. AA might cost a little more than the advertised price crazy_o.gif Still, I'm sure it will be worth it wink_o.gif

As Placebo said earlier, if you want info on specific areas, email Jiri at IDEA games marketing/sales.

http://www.idea-games.com/index_main.php?id=contact

He will simply e-mail back to placebo and placebo will respond to you that he still can't ask the question. Been there, done that.

What a poor PR-machine from Idea Games. icon_rolleyes.gif

Yeah, maybe its the case that they think ArmA will be a bit too 'serious'. Fine then, Im sure when it comes out it will show them that there is a market out there for serious war simulations (other than flight sims).

Any how, we shall see...All the best to you BIS

It's not strange that getting publishers is troublesome. All Jiri does all day is answering your emails, he's got no time left to negotiate biggrin_o.gif

what he ought to do is forward the emails to the people he's negotiating with.
