Matthew Rorie Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 I am going to clean up some of the existing topics and give you guys this one to talk about. Here's the official press release. In the end, Feargus' statement is the best summation of what's going on. Matthew Rorie
Orogun01 Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 (edited) Thank you Still not enough to make me salivate. It seems Sega is playing the spy game and holding out information on us. Edited October 15, 2009 by Orogun01 I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
spider1179 Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 I second Orogun01 also with a BIG THANKS! would of been nice to know sooner but o' well! i have per orded mine on steam now so looking forward to this game hope you guys at Obsidian really add loads more too it and make it an epic game!
Rostere Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 My preorder for AP still stands. Good luck with finishing and marketing the game! "Well, overkill is my middle name. And my last name. And all of my other names as well!"
Matthew Rorie Posted October 15, 2009 Author Posted October 15, 2009 Thanks for the pre-orders, guys. They really are important for new IPs to have, to show that people are excited about the game. So it's much appreciated! Matthew Rorie
Deadly_Nightshade Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 I've got a pre-order in as well. "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
Raithe Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Heh, this means my pre-order from back in February with Amazon will roll over to make it a year long pre-order.... It's already stopped showing up on my "recent orders" list Ah well. I guess I shall endeavour to stoke a touch more patience.. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
spider1179 Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 thats it we have waited this long whats 12 weeks (about) more! theres a few games coming out that can tide me over till then so dont mind i guess finding out my per orders been set back. but i must say mine was per orded in aug.
Killian Kalthorne Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 I canceled my pre-order when I learned the game was delayed. I don't like to have a pre-order in longer than a month, two at most. I will probably set up my pre-order after the game has been sent tot he printing press this time just in case there is another delay.

kreese12 Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Hmm I put the odds of the game getting delayed again at about 1 in 100 though. I really don't think that'll happen.
Perseus Veil Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Thanks, I don't have preorder but I'm still waiting for the game . I will buy it first day.
Skizo Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 i can't pre-order because my game store doesn't have it on its listings! i would've, no doubts about it. good luck, obsidian!
Grone Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Thanks for the update. This really is the best thing; we don't want another KotORII-incident. So I'm sticking with the pre-order. Seems like the guys at SEGA are somewhat good guys. Here's hoping for a polished and fantastic game!

Baeus Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 (edited) And just this morning, my local EB (in Australia) put out Alpha Protocol boxes on its 'coming soon' stand. Guess they missed the press release Ah well. Good luck, and hope it doesn't get delayed again Edited October 16, 2009 by Baeus
Masterfade Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Maybe I'm just reading too much into the press release, but it does strike me as a bit odd that Feargus chose to use the phrase "publishing success" while Sega talked about "best game possible". It seems, in a sense, they're finger-pointing each other as the reason for the delay.
Niles Rodriguez Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 My pre-order is in as well and I'm not canceling it.
Slowtrain Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Thanks, Matthew. My preorder is still in from last May, and I am still anticipating a fun game. Just curious, and you probably can't answer, but I'll ask anyway: Will new content be going into the game during this time or will you be refining and polishing what is already in place? Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.
Syraxis Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Now I have time to actually get around to pre ordering it.
mr insomniac Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Thanks for the official update, Matthew eight more months of twitter updates woo hoo. I took this job because I thought you were just a legend. Just a story. A story to scare little kids. But you're the real deal. The demon who dares to challenge God. So what the hell do you want? Don't seem to me like you're out to make this stinkin' world a better place. Why you gotta kill all my men? Why you gotta kill me? Nothing personal. It's just revenge.
alanschu Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Thanks for the pre-orders, guys. They really are important for new IPs to have, to show that people are excited about the game. So it's much appreciated! OIC, now you're trying to guilt a non-preorderer type like myself to preorder >.>
Richman Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Since when has June been Spring? Besides, who wants to play games when the Wolrd Cup is on? Hopefully it will be out in April/May.
Oner Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Who wants to watch World Cup when Alpha Protocol is out? Giveaway list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DgyQFpOJvyNASt8A12ipyV_iwpLXg_yltGG5mffvSwo/edit?usp=sharing What is glass but tortured sand?Never forget! '12.01.13.
Nepenthe Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Since when has June been Spring? Besides, who wants to play games when the Wolrd Cup is on? Hopefully it will be out in April/May. In the US Summer starts June 21st, unless I'm mistaken. Probably a good idea to let the dust settle after Mass Effect 2's january release (and I'd say lucky it's a couple of months earlier than I anybody guessed, I think). np: Tillman Uhrmacher - Springtime (June mix) You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
