Countdown for UT3 ... is it true?

[mar1k]

It says its 37 days before the demo and 65 before the game...I guess even if its not the exact date it should be really close to that

[Henrik]

Nobody ever said the demo was exactly 30 days before. They need time to gather feedback, so I would imagine it would be sooner than that. As in before the end of September or by the latest, very early October..

Epic types have said a few weeks and about a month. Not much to go on.

We do not know exactly when the game will be completed. All we've said is that we're hoping for a November release but as you know we value getting it right over getting it right now so there's no guarantee of that.

Most of us are grateful for that. Just so you know.

If they won't release it in november they have to postponed it for a long while - everyone will have spent their money on et:qw, orange box/tf2, crysis, blacksite area 51, halo3, hellgate london asf. by end of november, so it's either november or something like feb/march 2008, which is after christmas and will, even without competition, result in less units sold, in other words: it wont happen.

I expect a Demo to be here by early November if not late October.
My guess for UT3 will be either 9th November or 23rd, but 23rd means they release it after Crysis which would be a bad thing i doubt they will release it on the same day as Crysis.

[Mort_Q]

... release it after Crysis which would be a bad thing...

Why? They seem to be very different games. Crysis doesn't really appeal to me at all.

That's what the demo is for, amongst other things. To try before you buy.

Most people that have a rig that can handle both can afford both.

[snT]

Well I really doubt that the game will be released later then late november, the ut3 page, the trailer and everything already indicate a November 07 release.

Also it is already September now, if they really would have a big problem releasing it in November, they would already know it.

I bet we will see a demo in around a month from now.

Although you never know, it is Epic they never release an unfinished game.

Cool, maybe they'll use the extra time to add in first person view to all the vehicles.
