Release postponed to mid June

Hi guys

there is good new and bad news. The bad news is we are not on track to release Panzer Corps in May as planned. The good news is that this is because we're adding more polish and some additional cool content and even more missions. We decided the game is looking so good we need to put that extra bit of time and effort in to making it a real hit.

We apologise for the delay and hope you can understand and be patient!

Not a problem better greater and later than shorter and sooner

As a beta tester, i can say that you guys are on the right track, and with some more polish and additional content, I am sure it will be awesome. i think it was a good decision

I'm glad to hear it. I understand and respect a decision to delay a release for polish; I've seen enough times the opposite situation and it's not pretty.

By the way, I wanted to ask if there were any plans for African scenarios. I haven't heard that theatre of combat mentioned yet anywhere.

Thanks!

LOL, yes. Just like when Nappy delayed Waterloo for a few extra hours to get his artillery in place... then look what happened.

One thing that bothered me about those companies that push so hard for early releases. The release comes early, but the patches never did

There's nothing worse than a broken game and hoping patches will work.

Look at HOI 3.

Broken. They say they fixed some of it if you buy the Semper fi game.

Bull Shit

Big turn off for me.

is it possible to get more new screenshots or even a gamelpay-video in meantime ?

We're still doing quite a lot of extra work on the graphics at the moment, after that we will certainly post some new screenshots and probably some videos as well.

The best example against early release is cliffs of dover Il2

I'm happy to wait if it means a better game...

Spent waaaaaaay too much in 2010 for my own good.

But I am likely going to be happy to add this to the heap of titles

Glad I peaked in here (have not been around for some time), was not aware of any arrival times till today.

June will be just fine.

Its been saying 6/14 for weeks. Now it says 7/7. What a letdown ..................

Sorry we are working very very hard to get it done but we keep wanting to add that extra bit of polish. The good news is the beta testers are loving it!

eveready321 · Post by **eveready321** » Tue Jun 14, 2011 2:28 pm

So do it the day before release - no heads up. Why don't you push it back even further and make it a solid release?

I'll be honest - we are so busy working on things we rarely have time to check thigns like the release date on the site. They are alway estimates. There is no guarantee we'll hit this new date but we're doing everything we can to do it. Having a release date way in the future is also not much use. It is our best estimate at this point. Thats all we can do!

I know its frustrating but the beta testers can tell you how much the game has improved in just the last 2 weeks and how it was worth the wait.

Release postponed to mid June
