Version 3.0, get some sleep now. Before it is too late.

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

I'm not too sure any more, but... what was the number of the DomII version that came on the cd? Was it 2.00, or higher?

Still, we can always hope... and listen to the Tune of Dancing Death and rage rage rage while waiting for the game.

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

With Dom2 there wasnt the watchfulness so they might have gone abit past 2.00 and gotten away with it.

Johan has been reading these threads and I dont think he would put 3.00 unless he meant it to mean what everyone was expecting it to mean. He wouldnt be that mean to us would he?

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

Yes, he would. I think he has a mean streak http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/evil.gif

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

All right, here I come just checking what's new with Dom3 (I haven't even preordered, 'been following it extra loosely for months, and was expecting an October release so I could get this as a birthday present from my girlfriend)...

And now I'm hooked again. And what's worse - today is my VERY FIRST DAY BACK TO WORK http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

I hate you all.

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

Start accruing that PTO, man.

But, if its any consolation, we hate ourselves http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

Get fanatical man. As soon as Dom3 releases we must all spread the word of its glories.

Personally I plan to visit some linux sites and pitch the incredible text-mode hosting interface. So much power, and so easily integrated into web sites. I wish more games did it.

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

Ohhhhhhhhh! Version 3.00!!! Woot! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

So does this mean what I think it means? Or are you guys just excited by the number 3 (it is a magic number, afterall).

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

Yes, version 3.00 goes with the birth of Dominions 3 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

The birth of our favourite game! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Re: Nuke has landed!
 

Not the birth... The Awakening.

c'mon, Shrapnel.... Where's the Gold announcement? Or are there things for which we still have to wait?

Re: the waaaaaiting is the hardest part
 

They always started a thread for each version. It didnt always mean that anything went in it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif It also tended to collect comments like "WHOO HOO, look what got added!" or "I tested that last bug and its fixed now"

Re: the waaaaaiting is the hardest part
 

I estimate the two developers have stopped programming stuff and are now spending their time hunting for bugs/balance issues. {{edit: In fact Johan and Kristopher are probably planning a big DOM_3 Lan party with their friends this weekend... what better way to provide quality game research and have a great time!!))
By next monday I estimate they would have found and fixed a few issues and sent the final version to Shrapnel on Tuesday for them to mass produce onto CDs. The earliest we'll see Dominions_3 arrive is early September.

I would love to see the DOM_3 Modding and Map Edit Manual via pdf. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Hammer.gif[/img]

Re: the waaaaaiting is the hardest part
 

I would be very surprised if the development page for Dominions 4 gets posted. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: the waaaaaiting is the hardest part
 

It would be funny if the beta forum would be opened to public after the game is complete...could give at least me something to do while waiting for october 2nd. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: the waaaaaiting is the hardest part
 

Is October 2nd a special date?

Ooops... nevermind... I read the other thread.

So, now there is some muttering on the forum about having a short PBEM game to get us through the final hump. Any interest?

Re: the waaaaaiting is the hardest part
 

Quick Dev Question...

I haven't noticed any updates recently... is 3.00 the final version or will we see 3.01 and possibly more updates/fixes ?

Re: the waaaaaiting is the hardest part
 

Final! (that's what 'gone gold' means)

But there will be patches and updates of course.
