Bill Roper huh. Lets hope he doesn't fudge this one up.

That sounds about right.

It gives them 2 more months for Closed beta and 2 weeks for open beta, or some mix of that.

Of course that is assuming nothing gets pushed back.

Oh, I hope my machine can run this game! I can't afford a new computer right now. And I MUST play this. [Even if I have to sell my mother. . Or someone else's.]

That still leaves plenty of time for postponements.

 Hmm nice.

Now if only CCP would give a World of Darkness Online release date.

What are the spec's of your machine?

it seems to scale very well and it could only get better.

Is she a hard worker? Or failing that good looking? We might be able to cut a deal.

What is the value of a slave in computer parts anyway?

I have to admit I was really hoping to get back into the closed beta scene, especially for this one - I cant wait, but alas I have to!

yikes, 3 months is rather sudden, it'll mean the guys at the studio will start bringing their sleeping bags to work (LITERALLY) to make this Crunch Time happen.

Look for a push-back to a more reasonable and traditional Autumn time frame.

hmm,

Probably announced to shake up the market.  Kinda a push to DC as Marvel is only an idea at this stage.

woo, can't wait!

You might actually want to wait. From some of the sentiments in beta, this game is getting worse by each patch. One word that stood out was boring, but I will stop there. By the way, I got those statements from the last showing they had for this game that was at a convention. I played maybe 30 minutes of it and was turned off easily. I was also given 3 CB keys which I immediatly placed on cars in the parking lot. This is not to say you won't enjoy it though. I just thought it would be more skill driven and less quest driven.

I'd settle for an official webpage with a couple lines of text.

That or it may be a way to move more resources to STO. I'm pretty sure Paramount wants STO to launch in a few months as possible after the movie, certainly this year. It's probably also been figured that STO stands to make them (Cryptic) more money than Champions. That's my guess anyway.

Moving in quickly to launch and establish itself before DC online is released no doubt. DC online is a serious threat to Champs online. DC just has better appeal with it's Heroes and villains.

STO is a much more recognised IP than CO so I would imagine it goes without saying that it would have a much larger fan base ready to spend money on the game when it goes live, not to say that ppl will stay with it after the free month but the potential is always there with a new release.

However I'm looking forward to CO's release and can't wait to dust off my old spandex outfit and jump straight back into hero mode again, I thoroughly enjoyed CoX and look forward to seeing Cryptics latest endeavours.

Lol sucks to go to army at 13. July =D

Because after a huge record of immense success he had one game that didn't fare well? Nice.

Everyone I know that is playing beta says the game is a boring shadow of what CoX is.  Of course all of Cryptics real talent is workign on STO.

I don't really know the specs of my machine. Though, I might be able to copy & paste them from X-Fire! So, that's an idea. Yeah, I don't know much about computers other than they deliver porn right to my bedroom. Oh, and mmos too!

Well, my mother's disabled. However, she was a damn fine cook, in her day. So, she still has all that cooking knowledge. And if someone does the lifting, you can get good meals out of her. Though, I don't know exactly how much she's worth, as far as computer parts go.

If its anything like COH/V (which it looks to be) you should have no problem.

That is an excellent point! And I can [and freqently do!] play that game!
