http://www.gamestop.com/browse/searc...ds%20of%20Prey

I expect some apologies now. The Publishers wisely decided to move up the US release date of Birds of Prey to Sept 8th because of my thread telling them to.

Birds of Prey is now on a level playing field with Heroes Over Europe thanks to me. It would have been flat out dumb for them to release Birds of Prey 1 week behind Heroes Over Europe, and I have no problem driving that point home to the Publisher no matter how much people ion this forum critized me for it.

The showdown is now on Birds of Prey, and Heroes Over Europe release the same day in the US.

this thread is funny because he actually thinks that garbage ass thread he made had some sort of impact

haitch40 08-05-2009 03:11 PM

ok lets put the facts down
1 person will not change the dev or the publishers mind so its not just u however u its a bit of a coincidence for this to happen after u said something however it would be an internal decision not u sayin i want it moved forward

dennis580 08-05-2009 03:11 PM

I was insulted, and attacked on this forum when I gave good, and sound business reasons for the US release to be moved up a week. Which is excately what the publisher has done now.

I think it goes without saying that my thread played a big role in getting the release date moved.

You havent considered the fact that Sep 15th might have been a date that ment the game wouldnt be late, realising they have finnished they moved it forward. Anyway the 8th is my B'day so therefore its all my work that got the date pulled forward!

The publisher most likely read my thread or somebody brought it to their attention. My thread did have an impact. Would they haved moved the release date up without my thread? Maybe or maybe not we don't know, but my thread certainly brought the issue to the attention of the Publisher, and that was the whole purpose of my thread was to get the release bumped up a week so BOP could be on a even playing field with HOE for my $50.

dennis580 08-05-2009 03:29 PM

Anyway we have a WWII flight showdown set for Sept 8th. So when we walk in the store on Sept 8th, or Sept 9th(most stores dont usually get games until Wednesday including mine) we will have a choice between 2 brand new WWII flight games.

Everybody should be happy about how this worked out. Competion is always good, and it snice to have 2 games competing for the excate same audience released on the same day. May the best game win this WWII Flight showdown.

loopdreams 08-05-2009 03:41 PM

I'd actually like to buy it next week as I get paid then. Make another thread plz.

SeaCat 08-05-2009 03:55 PM

Let's all be ecstatic the date is the 8th and be a nice, happy community and give each other celebratory hugs! No sense in arguing with each other, crack open some beers and toast the publishers for making a very smart business move (as well as giving us the game a week sooner!*

There is no showdown for the educated. One game is sim based and the other is arcade only. Apples and oranges.

Publishers do NOT bump up release dates when the game is this close to coming out . It is very, very rare. They don't do it unless their is an extremely good reason to, and in this case their certainly was an extremely good reason as releaseing a week behind HOE in the US made absolutely no business sense at all especially considering they were releaseing in the EU, AU on Sept 3rd, and Sept 4th.

The publisher might of have come this conclusion without my thread, but my thread certainly helped bring the issue it to the publisher's attention.

reverend66 08-05-2009 03:59 PM

Yes, and while you are at it post another thread asking the developers to add unicorns to the game. I in no way can be bothered to spend my hard earned money on a WWII flight sim without unicorns. It is an historical fact that the Russians would have never been able to push back the German assualt without unicorns.........

I bet HOE will have unicorns:mrgreen:

Dennis, I think I did not attack you and if I did, please accept my apologies. Anyway in the light of the remote chance that your post made the publisher move the release date I am grateful for your efforts that make all IL-2 players out there able to enjoy this wonderful game one week earlier.

Hmmm, thinking about it - could you please get them to release it on August 20th? That's when I return from my one week vacation in Spain and it would be nice to enjoy the second vacation week in the cockpit :-P

LJ371 08-06-2009 12:24 AM

can I just say its safe to say, (expect for the 1,000,000 chance) that no publishers read this forum or other forums enough to make a decision base, especially off players... and wouldnt it be one or more peoples job to watch for competition release dates and make suggested changes within the company?

anyway, since you are 1 in a million -> have fun and enjoy/get a free copy of the game for getting the release date moved on your own.

By the way, if you scroll back long enough to like February we had already discussed the release times for BoP and HoE and how close their planned release dates are.

The date is confirmed. If Gamestop bumps up a release date this close to release you can take it to the bank. The publisher may not have revealed it to the general public yet, but they have certainly told Gamestop. The release date is Sept 8th you can take it to the bank. It is not at all unusal for Gamestop to be the first one to know about a release date changed.

This being a prime example ?

dennis580 08-06-2009 03:06 PM

Yea I will argue with the Admin because he is obviously clueless about how release date changes work.

If Gamestop changes a release date this close to release it is because they have been told by the publisher. Anybody should know that by now if you follow release dates closely.

the publisher already has a set date of release

They don't mess up when they change a date this close to release. When they change a date this close to release they have been told to do so by the publisher

The game is coming out on Sept 8th PERIOD

I guanratee by next week the publisher will make the offical announcement that the game is coming Sept 8th.

This happens all the time. When Gamestop changes a release date close to the release they have been told by the publisher to do so. I have been gaming long enough, and following release dates long enough to know this is a fact. Obviously you are clueless.

It is not at all unusual for a publisher to tell Gamestop about a release date before they tell anybody else.

dennis580 08-06-2009 03:14 PM

I am going on record right now that the publisher will officially announce the release date as Sept 8th by next week.

Nike-it 08-06-2009 03:18 PM

Guys, I'm fed up with this pointless discussion. Right now the release date is 15th September. If it is moved to 8th, I'll be only glad. But taking info from Gamestop as an absolute truth seems quite sily.

dennis580 08-06-2009 03:23 PM

And we just found out that happened. Your welcome.

Oh, the bacon unicorn. That must be one of the "planes" without cockpit modeling. I mean it really doesn't have a cockpit. So, to maneuver, do you control pitch and roll with the horn? Does the damage model sizzle if you go down in a ball of flames?:grin:

Oh, the Bacon Unicorn was a killer. Some called it the 'Rainbow Death' and 'Canada's Revenge' since the wings were supplied from there.

You are correct about the horn controlling roll/pitch controls.

As far as damage modeling goes, if you start shooting at it and your canopy starts getting sprayed with something...it's not oil.:)
