Elemental: Updating to the Release Version!

from JoeUser Forums

image

The official release date of Elemental is August 24th. However, some retailers have broken the street date and to make sure that those who helped us in the beta as well as those who pre-ordered it don’t miss out, we are going to release a pre-day 0 version of Elemental tonight.

This version is beyond the digital gold version that reviewers currently have but it is not quite the day 0 version either.  There’s been a lot of polish, tweaks, and other improvements to the game in this version.

If you did happen to get Elemental early from retail, you will want to load up Impulse (which was installed) and update to the latest version.

This version should go live in approximately 90 minutes.

Either that, or his wife has some sort of lumberjack fixation. One of the two.

Broken the street date??? INFIDELS, HOW DARE THEY BREAK THEIR BLOODBROTHER SACRED-OATH with STARDOCK

Stardock DEMANDS JUSTICE . WE want company names, and employees names of said retailers turned over for full interrogation. HEATHENS SHALL BE PURGED!!!


Lol, as a retail worker myself, though in grocery, It wouldnt suprise me that some 17 year old working at Walmart / ebgames who doesnt know what hes doing , accidently put it out, I mean kids will be kids right?? Retails a tough and sometimes very chaotic environment.

Cool, now i am wondering if i should stay up late until i see it so i can initiate the dl or just hit the hay and give the dl a go in the morning, eagerly anticipating this spiritual successor to MoM.

Ok, I sincerely hope it's released at 11pm EST, I have been stuck doing house chores all day by my fiancee and need this insanity to stop.

She figured now is the best time to turn the screws :)

 

Iv'e mowed the lawn, cleaned the gutters, worked on my car, shaved my head, washed dishes, vacuumed, and showered 2x.

 

FROGBOY make it stop! :)

Damn, I remember those days. Long hours, not enough pay. While I liked the variance of experience, the pay, hours and jerks were not woth it.

Thank the Lord I landed on my feet afterward.

If you haven't joined the release chat I would!  There's over 560 folks and they are providing real-time updates on the upload.

Brad- It must be really cool to see all this excitement building around something you've created.  Most of us will never experience that. :)

I remember not too long ago when statements like that used to really irk me... why is it only 'those dumb teens' who make mistakes?  Do you know how many 'mature' people I see make catastrophic mistakes EVERY day?

Now, only a few short years later at 24, I make $112k a year and know those same people complaining about us former teens are horrendously jealous :thumbsup:   So I guess I can let it go!

Can't wait for the game frog, and the chat just hit 600 people!!!
