MXO Release...
« on: March 08, 2005, 10:38:30 am »
I just relized something... I havnt seen a single announcement that MXO has gone gold... does a game go gold about a month before its released... we are supposedly 2 weeks away from release... doesnt anyone else find that odd... purhaps the game is going to be delayed again...

BTW for anyone who doesnt know what "going gold" means... its a term in the gaming industry that means they've begun producing the product for distrabution... making all the boxs, cds, manuals and what not... and its seems like they ussually do this a month ahead of time...

I tend to find that most manufacturers use this term when it relates to a version that doesn't require any more updates, and (as far as I am aware) relates to "normal" games, not MMORPG - although I could be very wrong there.

They don't have to specifically say its gold on the package tho.

I'm a total frickin rock star from mars.
C'mon bro, I got tiger blood.

Well,  as far as being ready for distribution...I think it was Gabriel who was saying he had a friend at a gamestore and they already have the MxO boxes.  Just waiting for the release day.

yea ive only really seen that term used for non-mmorpg type games. when they say its gone gold, its ready to be pressed and shipped to stores. its almost a given that you will have to patch a mmorpg after a fresh install.
i remember reading a post on the official forums from a "35 year software engineer". he said that realistically lith would have to send a version of the game to be pressed early this week at the latest if they are going to meet the 22nd release.

Heh, this IS WB tho. They have quite a bit of might behind them, and I would perhaps even suggest their own pressing equipment! Who knows.... I JUST WANT IT NOW!

I've also heard the boxes are already at stores. The date on the boxes say March 31st, though. Hmm...

That suks for you Zink...*sneezes*. Anyway, I preordered mine in a mall at Gamestop. I'm going to ask them when exactly they are releasing the game for sure.
