One year has passed and it is April 1st once again, thus a prime opportunity for us to make a new announcement. To stop speculation, this is not an april fool's joke; this is just as serious as last year's notice. This year's April 1st revelation is the release date for Public Beta 1:
We will release TO: Crossfire on April 28th 2006.
In order to allow a proper distribution and make sure you instantly have servers to play on, we have decided to spread the initial release over a period of one week. On April 21st we will offer the download of the server version, so providers have time to set up their networks. At the same time we will also release an encrypted client version via BitTorrent. The password for this version, as well as http/ftp download links for an unencrypted client version, will be made available during our IRC release party on April 28th, to which we happily invite you.
Along with this announcement we have also upgraded the website. You can now check out brand new renders of our arsenal and we also added some brand new screenshots to our gallery.
Additionally bukKkk created a sprite version to TO: Crossfire, featuring background music from Pablo 'Guybrush' Delgado to make your wait even more pleasant. You may download this little game from our website.
i am very VERY happy about this.
i feel like so many pple are gonna try to download it, the dl speed will be 1Kb for a sec :(
well, damn i cant wait!
As we will offer a prerelease download a week before the actual release (passworded rar) via bittorrent i hope you won't suffer slow downloads.
i dont do bittorrents............
(dont ask why, long story...)
then you gotta have to wait till someone mirrors the rar
any idea of how long that would take?
