SD acting like EA?

Sweetyvi - don’t take anything I say personally. I realise we are looking at this issue from different perspectives.

Yours is emotional - “It’s damn rude for them not to say anything”

and mine is functional - “They’re not making any promises they can’t guarantee to keep”

Then again there could be countles reasons they’re saying little. Keeps us in suspense - I mean if you knew ET would be another three weeks you might bugger off to play some other game and heaven forbid get engrossed in that and forget to come back to ET!

Or maybe all the SD staff have accidentally been locked in the broom cupboard after a kinky bondage session. LOL and if they aren’t allowed to post on the forums they can do nothing to deny that last comment. I chuckle to myself mischievously!

Hiya, I thought I’d respond to a few things :slight_smile:

SD is developing Enemy Territory, id are executively producing it, and Activision are publishing it - including all the standard things a publisher does, such as production, quality assurance and anything like press releases and managing open (read: to the online community) beta testing.

As much as we’d like to tell you when the game is coming out, it’s Activision/id’s call - the best we can give you is a feeble ‘when it’s ready’, which is something of a non-answer. You already know that much, surely? :slight_smile:

Secondly, SD doesn’t have a PR department. We don’t even have departments, for that matter - we have a number of teams for the various facets of development, but even then there’s a lot of overlap. Especially at lunchtime, as we all head for the nearest pizza restaurant.

Lastly, we don’t have a broom cupboard. I think the closest thing we have to that is the closet where our office cleaner keeps his vacuum cleaners, and only he has the key to that. In any case, there isn’t room in it for one person, let alone several, and definitely not several involved in the sorts of activities you’re insinuating. Sorry :slight_smile:

My illusions are dashed - about the broom cupboard.

Hi Wils,

thx for your statement.

It’s a little bit late (after the rumors with "early next week) - but it’s all I wanted to hear :smiley:

Keep up the good work!

Damn, think I have to pay a beer or two the next time I’m in UK :slight_smile:

Well that certainly wouldn’t hurt.

but that’s so boring! I’m a passionate person on gaming so I want to let my emotions out. Sorry if that insults you but tough - deal with it!
