15 weeks till release? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Well, with 15 civs remaining on the "Civ-of-the-week" feature on Civ3.com, are 15 weeks remaining till release? That would put the release date around December 1. Of course this assumes that all civs are run through before release and that some weeks don't double up civs. Well at least it would still be a pre-Xmas, 2001 release.

i already brought that up in the civ of the week topic. but yes it seems that way.

i bet they'd like us to sit and wait for every civ to be shown. just to watch me squirm.

OR.. Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

They plan on running the "Civ of the Week" feature after release... Yep, that is what's going to happen, so people who go to the site after the release of Civ3 III will have a cool, frequently updated site to look at.

...at least that is what I keep telling myself.

Bah, I don't care if it is delayed until December 1. In fact, I prefer it that way. That way, when they'll release it in Finland 3 weeks later, it's Christmas and I'll actually have money for it and don't have to listen for Americans exulting how great and wonderful and super the game is for more than 3 torturous weeks.

Or it'll come out earlier and all you hear is bug rants and then thank your lucky stars that it won't reach you for a few more weeks when you'll get a patched/working game

I do hope they are released simultaneously in the US and Europe. With Infogrames being a French company, there is a good chance that we will get it simultaneously, and who knows, perhaps even the Europeans first. Now wouldn't that be a turn up for the books!

Europeans getting it first wouldn't be too strange. Australians got SMAC first.

Yeah I've mentioned this in a seperate thread as well, as have some other peeps. An early December wouldn't be too bad at all. Firaxis has stated that they are aiming for a fall 2001 release and that time period would fall under the early December idea.

... However, all of the internet sites offering CIV3 under "preorder" state the game is due to release in October 2001.
