PainDealer 0 Posted October 9, 2006 all contries will have publisher but Portugal wont (until the moment).. not fair why do you say that? I haven't heard a word of who might publish it up here in the north. sure wish we'll get the UK version but now everyone should just start the F5-spree on BIS website and news forum!!

PainDealer 0 Posted October 9, 2006 because the UK just got a publisher. no we didnt... its still in talks at the moment, so nothing is comfirmed till its comfirmed it's gotta be confirmed this week, I'm sure they won't push it any further if they really do have a publisher and release date Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Messiah 2 Posted October 9, 2006 placebo said it would be announced shortly.... it could go either way of course, although I'd obviously be hoping on there being a positive outcome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dudester 0 Posted October 9, 2006 Well i just wonder what date the UK version will have on it. If its not 10/11/06 like the Czech Repubic date, then i`m of to try to get hold of a czech release. Like i already mentioned in an earlier post. I have looked forward to play this game like anyone else, so i just don`t want to be playing it a month after anyone else. Does anyone know of any Czech importers that i may get this game from. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk_345 0 Posted October 9, 2006 Im guessing the UK will get its publisher and it will be anounced this week, so at least that will be done, so if ther eis no publisher by march here in canada my school might be having another UK trip and maybe i get 1 of my friends to buy a copy fo the game for me out there na dpay him back after or something but i really dont want that to be the way i get it.

kernriver 4 Posted October 9, 2006 I am also waiting for UK (or US) version, because i want my ArmA to be in english all the way...hope we get news about UK publisher soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Messiah 2 Posted October 9, 2006 not much point in speculating as to dates, although it seems reasonable that if the UK publisher is comfirmed soon, that its likely that we will see a similiar release date to germany (assuming the uk publisher can get its act together and be prepared in time for that date) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattxr 9 Posted October 9, 2006 because the UK just got a publisher. no we didnt... its still in talks at the moment, so nothing is comfirmed till its comfirmed Well from what Jiri Rydl told me Quote[/b] ]We have UK publisher and a release date He said the inforamtion about it will be released in the next press release.

Messiah 2 Posted October 9, 2006 good news - but obviously thats something you two discussed, not something that was comfirmed via a press release... as far as we were to know, talks were ongoing. but never-the-less - armed assault before xmas me hopes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dudester 0 Posted October 9, 2006 I want a release date now, to release me from this torment of not knowing when its released. I played OFP for 4 years since it was released, that is untill the cheats made me stop playing it. I was in a few top clans and have to say, i have never since enjoyed a game so much as i enjoyed OFP. I just hope its not as easy to cheat in AA as it was to in OFP. Anyone know if they have got some anti cheating in the game?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coderdfox 0 Posted October 10, 2006 An American publisher may not come anytime soon, I could see the American publisher being found 2-4 months after the release (takes time to set up a distrubution. Or there just wont be an American publisher if every American just buys it from the UK. My feeling is, I'm not buying an american game so I dont care if I buy from an european publisher.

ninjatek 0 Posted October 10, 2006 Quote[/b] ]Publishing involves printing of the disks, manuals, covers and then distribution correct? Sorry that's the easy part and any small business or mom/pop store could do that. To truely market in the US you have to get it in Wal-Mart, BestBuy, the game shops and more. Â These companies will not carry a products from just anyone and contracts are required and in many cases certain requirements be met by the company distributing. In my experience with BestBuy when they approached me about carrying my KidComputers.com systems they wanted me to carry a $1 million dollar consumer insurance plan. This is expensive and very very hard to get. Wal-Mart and many others require that you supply X number of units with the in warehouse ability to distribute X number more BUT they choose the option to actually order those or not. So you may get an initial order for 100,000 copies, and be required to warehouse 500,000 more, then they never order the other 500,000 and RETURN to you say 50,000 copies on top of that because they choose to not carry it anymore. So the US market is expensive and very high risk for publishers. That is probably why they are so flakey, pickey or choosey. Blame the mega corp conglomerants who get to set such high risk and overheads for bringing things to market, or blame yourself for shopping there or investing in their stocks.
