*** More good OOTP 6 news ***

Markus Heinsohn · 03-07-2004, 08:54 PM

OK, since I am in good mood, I'll share some news with you which will be announced in a newsletter this week:

We have been trying to figure out a fair and easy upgrade option for OOTP owners, but because of the eLicense system this is really a hassle and is close to impossible. Anyway, this year we will start a preordering period (starts next week, after the newsletter), where you can preorder OOTP 6 for just $25.99, instead of the $34.99 it will cost once the game is released. This applies no matter if you already own a previous version of OOTP or not. We want to do this because we feel it's finally the time to give all you longtime customers a chance to finally get some sort of an upgrade price

One word to the release date: I still hope to get the game done in March, although it may be early April. We want to make sure that every new feature works as advertised and that the new engine is in excellent shape. So far things look great, btw

OK, 2 am, time to go to bed

Food is a secondary need- this, this is a primary need.

dougaiton · 03-07-2004, 09:51 PM

What with the dollar being so low, that works out to about 7 British pence! Sign me up for the pre-ordering!
