7.62 mm

[Barrabas]

Great, someone else is here too!

So 505 are supposed to do the translating, right? I agree with Dosenben, it doesn't seem like they are in a hurry.

I and another guy over at the Strategy First BE5 forum wrote a message to 505 Games, trying to get some more info about the English release. That was more than two weeks ago, and they haven't answered either of us. A bit disappointing, I must say.

Surely, it shouldn't take half a year to translate and publish the game in English, should it? This is a truly unique, one-of-a-kind tactical game you are sitting on 1C. I can't see why you don't show some more urgency in getting it out to a western audience.

Barrabas - its simple - in Russia they can sell very low quality game product beacuse there is no option to bring games back to retailer if - You buy it - it's Your forever. So why need to pay beta testers - peoples payed money than send huge amout of errors - so to 7.62 already made 3 unofficial patches + Weapon mod (2nd version is included in first official patch - 3 rd entered few days after official patch was ready

So I really glad that soemone will play this as a game - not as a buggy something - Universal answer for bugs after patch - delete old saves + try to reinstall game + install latest patch only.

My own disk with 7/62 moved to trash. Im playing fantasy wars and waiting JA3

Sorry to say that, but believe me it's no big difference in Germany at least - although you can (granted, some luck is required) return your purchase to the retailer, the few remaining german game developers have had some extreeeeemely bad times. Crysis is another story (and not a purely german production), but check out "The Fall - last days of Gaia", "Söldner - Secret Wars", both "Spellforce", and last one of the few successful german franchises, "Gothic" - which found its sorry end in Gothic 3 - like the other titles an almost unplayable bugfest, always with a ridicolously hardware-hungry programmed engines.

What i fail to grasp is - russian / eastern european developers seem to be the last remaining with some sense of originality and fresh ideas, yet somehow their games never seem to reach the western markets successfully.

I just keep praying that 7.62 might avoid this fate... and i'm not hoping for JA3 to save the day. Once a title has been anounced / bought / sold / given up on too often, it normally stinks. Besides, with the title, you take up some kind of promise to live up to it's predecessor - and that's a rough ride with JA2.

As long as it's somehow playable... scrap the damn voice-overs and bring it over! *wince*

Evgeny, do you have any news regarding the english release ?
The russians forums are a pain in the neck to read with online translators ^^
It seems (according to what someone posted) that the english version will include both 7.62 and Reloaded as a single release. Can you confirm that please ?
505 are rather shy on infos aswell, and they don't seem to even have a forum

[Melthorse]

Are there any news about the relase date?
