I hope Ashes will reveal some screen shots and videos in the month of September

 

[Punk_Sk8r]

Would be nice to get some screenshots tomorrow but I highly doubt it, probably friday!

With the news of sachin tendulkar retiring in november it would be a great time to release the game in november 2013.it would be nice to see game available in the stadium for purchase as the sentiments would be running high and seeing an end of era.the greatest batsman of the modern era would retire after playing 200 test.

Didn't realise Tendulkar played in the Ashes...

Yup, he also invented pancakes, dishwasher thingee's with balls in them and the leg-glance... the dance move, not the cricket shot. [/tendulkarfacts]

Hi Guys, Here is another weekly update, we had another solid week of production last week and it looks like we finally have all the technology issues behind us. We are now turning all our attention of bug fixing, multiplayer testing and game polishing so the finish line is now in sight. We will be siting down late this week to start to build the assets for 505 Games to complete their marketing initiatives which we can then show off in-game screen shots and game play videos later this month as planned. I'll give a further update on WIP this Friday and thanks for all your patience throughout August allowing us to totally focus on the AC2013 game production.

@Mike: Weren't you going to start "revealing" new features starting September? We all are totally looking forward to details on your "and more..." comment.

 

[sahilnatu]

@Pat +1
Mike, its September (technically). And you had pushed the explanation of your 'and more...' comment to September. Hope you don't postpone it again to late September to make your point, with some visuals to show. Need to put that issue to rest, be it in the positive sense or in the negative sense.

Monday/September...people waiting for screenshots/videos...or just anything other than black text, and mike post this:

Aaarrrrg-It just same crappy delay of things by mike and only thing thats diff is the way he suggest its delay.

 

[whiteninness]

Lets hope Mike doesnt come on 28th september (2 days before end of september) and say we have goofed it up once again. so wait for some more time.

He won't. They will release in November no matter how buggy it is. Make no mistake, they would have released it during the Ashes if it hadn't failed the Microsoft/Sony submissions. You don't submit a game unless you're intending to publish it.

After that though, it made sense to postpone it until the next Ashes series.

'September' doesn't mean the first weekday of September.

He addressed the screenshot/video timing in that post and ones previous.

 

[fiction]

For god's sake, it's just the second day of September. Give him some time.

 

[Biggs]

Yeah, those guys get it. Again... getting a little embarrassing guys...

Two days into September, no need to be petulant.
