Or can we? |
A quarter of a year definitely isn't soon. I waited a month or so, knowing that it would take them some time but i hope they have that site up soon :(
|
aaaaaaaaaah c'mon give them a break, they are working to please us, just be patient
I agree it's long, but try not to moan to much about it |
My view:
Like so many projects, this one has been delayed. It might be at risk of becoming vaporware. So, they put up a site, thinking that the release will be in say, 2 months, so the new site = 1 month. (the timing is probably out, but you get the idea). But then, something goes wrong, and they now have next game in 6 months, and then the site should only be put up when they have a good idea of the game, and an idea of the release date, so they delay it. |
Just hush up, quit your whining and wait, all of you. Unless you want to make the movie?...You'd probably say 'yes' to that, but my point is that they are trying, and that they are working hard on this, so leave them alone, stop complaining, and be patient. It's going to happen.
|
The movie was never going to be released in a month or even six. And it doesn't count as vaporware until a) it's officially announced, b) given an official release date and c) that release date isn't met.
|
I'm giving an example so don't jump down my throat NDW!!! I don't know ANYTHING about moviemaking but I submitted what I thought was a possible cause and put in some dummy timings to give a better meaning to it. They were never intended to be anything close to the actual timings! so quit flaming me!
|
I realised you weren't suggesting the timings were plausible. What I was objecting to was your labelling of the movie as vaporware.
Aside from that, might I suggest that you make the text in your sig smaller so it doesn't appear as such a huge block of text? |

yes we do, now get back on topic please :p
|
i havnt been on here a while coursework and all that and there is like 11 pages to this post so i wondered does anyone know when the new site will be done?
|
I have always guess when AO has its tenth anniversity of being out in the public. That would mean that we need to wait another 11 months.
|
11 months! why did they have that big front page it seems very strange doing it if there is 11 months to wait.
|
Yeah, that kind of thing works better with a video game. But that's just my prediction.
|
I suspect that if it were for a clear moment in time, they would have stated that ("Watch out for our 10th anniversary" and suchforth). This is one that will have to go in the "When they're ready for it" pile.
|
why close the website down for this long thats what bugs me
|
they didn't close it, you can still find all the old stuff here:
http://www.oddworld.com/firsttenyears/index.shtml |
yeh but what i meant is why put the page "new site soon" if there isn't going to be a new site soon?
|
They did it since people *cough cough impatient whiners* were losing interest because they couldn't stand not having to wait such a long time for news. It's not like OWI doesn't check in every once in a while.
|
I'm really hoping for an announcement before the New Year at this point. I definately can understand them being busy but I want some kind of bone as a loyal fan, to chew on.
|
Yeah, but I'm sure when it comes out, we'll all be impressed.
Althoiugh a small heads up to when they'll be back would be nice. |
I realy want to close this topic, or at least change the name of ...
each time I see someone posted in it I go check the Oddworld.com page to see if it has realy been updated. :p |
That's exactly what I did when I saw this thread updated.
But I'm sure that when the site is finally loaded, someone will make a topic out of it... |
they are taking their sweet time arn't they !! i mean why do they even need a new paage if their new movie (cs) isnt actually about oddworld !!!
|
Because that site is also the Oddworld Inhabitant's site. www.oddworldinhabitants.com used to take you there, but that address no longer works.
|
Maybe Michelle Moore has been at it again.

i mean 7 months is long enough isnt it ?? |
The site will start gaining new content soonish, probably when there's a film deal (i.e. when OWI and Vanguard sign up to a studio), and it'll grow from there. OWI’s new project is still at a really early, tentative stage.
