Articulate Vlish F'nor Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 One of the reasons I love these games is because they're made for Mac first! MACs RULE!! We deserve to be first; I'm tired of second-class computers getting the first choice of new games! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma wary wanderer Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 So -- not to ask the obvious question, but has anyone heard from JV if there's a revised release date? I'm trying as hard as I can not to get any work done, and GF4 would really support this noble cause... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrulous Glaahk Silver Shadow Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I am down to running tree branches back and forth for money in my text-based game... It is high time for something new and interesting to spring up and tear me away from my boredom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Give Jeff a little time. Would you rather get the game on time but not quite ready or maybe a day or two late and in a state of stunning perfection? —Alorael, who has no special information. He have any reason to think the game will or will not be late or that any particular stunning perfection is a reasonable possibility.

Seasoned Roamer Silb Aran Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I would have the game stunningly perfect, and today. It should also cure cancer, and usher in a new age of prosperity. Seriously though, Jeff just said "quick update: should come out close to the 20th". It's not a release date at all. I thought we were just pretending. Or was I the only one? *looks around in sudden doubt and fright* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila GearMonkey Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Well I for one am all for snark. That said, if GF4 doesn't eliminate world hunger, I'll be very disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma Eigenvalue Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I personally have erroneously decided already about a month ago that the game is almost out - that was when the geneforge forum suddenly became very agitated and the beta testers have started glimpsing on what's coming. So I quite well understand what many people are going through now, and, as bad as it sounds, we can wait for as long as it takes. About the game coming to Macs first, I am happy that for the first time (after Marathon at least) I can to tell my non-Mac-using friends what is the main reason they should get a Mac. Having said all this, I do hope that we-Mac-users do not need to wait for too long (and that the non-Mac-users do not need to suffer to a too severe extent).

Well-Actually War Trall Fort Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 If I could wait for Windows Vista, I can wait a week or two for Geneforge 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Sudanna Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Relax with all the time-agonizing. All it does is stress us all out. For instance, -X- is now hoping that Jeff didn't die for obscure reasons. See what you do to -X-?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma emulrooney Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I'm not sure if its even fully uploaded, but it appears to be on the FTP site. (even if the main page hasnt been updated yet.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk The Ripper Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 woohoo, it IS on the ftp! I'm installing it right now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma emulrooney Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Unfortunately, it won't launch. Not that I'm in any position to complain, seeing as it hasn't actually been released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Lattan Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Well, it downloaded, installed, and ran for me. But since I'm still in the middle of G2, that's all it's doing for a while. Why one earth would the file be up this much earlier than the website updates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasoned Roamer Silb Aran Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Just downloaded it. It's running fine here as well. Hurray! Edit: here 's the link for the ftp. Use at your own risk, though, since I guess it's not official yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk Student of Trinity Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Yep, it's all there. Enjoy. G3 was also available on the FTP site before being advertised on the webpages. Maybe it's Jeff's way to reward the extreme keeners. Or maybe he downs a few beers to celebrate posting the thing to FTP, and doesn't get around to the rest for a while.

This just occurred to me, but I bet he wants to wait until G4 is put up on the site that does registration for him; then he uploads the the formal announcements.

Articulate Vlish Banana Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Maybe it's still missing an important patch, or maybe it's just that the administrative stuff (purchasing etc) isn't ready for release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Articulate Vlish F'nor Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Thank you, thank you, thank you. Now, if I didn't live in the middle of nowhere, I would have it quickly but we can't even get high speed here so it's a slow dial-up!! The small towns 2 miles away have had high speed for ages but we still can't get it here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
