Gold Yet?

General Hawkwing · #1 October 10th, 2000, 09:29 PM

I agree with Iron Giant and likewise did not pre-order. I too would like to get a copy of the demo based on gold soon, but I am not surprised that it is not available yet. MM is following the pattern they set long ago with releases and information updates. I personally will not order the game until I get a chance to play a demo based on the gold code. It is the only way to verify a better AI and bug fixes.

Opps, I guess Richard and I were posting at the same time. Thanks for the info Richard.

You know Richard, telling us the new demo is there but that we can't get it yet might just be the most elaborate form of torture gamefans have ever been subjected to.

Yep, I waited until it went gold to pre-order. Just hope I didn't wait too late to make the first shipment ...

No need to create press release tonight - just create a scenario/mod folder for SEIV (you will need it anyway for shipsets, mods, ec.) and stick the patch in it. Then tomorrow, when somebody has more time, create the full web-page with links, explanations, etc. Hope springs internal - Oh well back to the Darlocks on the impossible setting. . .

MOO!!

I'd forgotten about the Darlocks! Those were the super-sneaky guys that all the other races hated, right? Personally, I liked playing the cat-people the best, but I don't recall what they were called. Gods, but that's been years. I never played Moo2, only the original MOO.

I wonder what ever happened to Steve Barcia and his sister, they were a very talented team, but MOM was the Last game I heard of them doing. Ahh, and what a tour-de-force that was...

I just read an article about him....... he is alive and kicking and working for some company - I believe working on console games if memory serves me right. I read that on an "where are they now" type thing about MOO. Maybe gamespot? Or IGN?
