Thanks. I'm aware of the 2/15 projected release date and I've downloaded the demo. Just wondering if the game went Gold yet.

Elmo, I believe it has, but you could ask Richard or Geo, they would know for sure,

Arak Koba, your going to get one .... of a game, probably the best space combat one out there with the most support. enjoy

Yeah, I'm hoping someone who knows the answer will reply. If not, we'll just wait patiently. Thanks.

I guess since I was mentioned by name here I should respond.

Uh, I dunno.

Sorry, I think that "Gone Gold" means that the game is boxed and shipping, where "SEIV Gold" is an upgraded Version of the game with new fetures, etc.

I don't believe that SEIV Gold will go Gold until it starts shipping on or about the 15th. Does that help?

To me "gone Gold" means the master CD has been pressed and they are cranking out CD's and printing manuals. From the time a game has gone Gold until it is ready to ship is highly variable but is probably at least a two or three week lag. _If_ that is correct and _if_ SE IV Gold hasn't gone Gold yet then making the 15th of February to ship is getting to be problematic.
