they should give us a longer and better game at least.

+1 to what he said

Besides, the month of december and especially the ladder part of it is the worst possible time for anyone to launch a game, especially when it's an under-the-radar game coming from a small developer and with zero hype to it. It will be overlooked by everyone except the most die-hard fans.

On the other hand I really, really hope the reason for the delay is a map editor that you guys could put in

I'm a huge king's bounty fan ... it a brilliant game, one of the best I ever played ... but it could be so much more. It could be a classic. A random map generator (like the one in the heroes games) or a map editor could ensure the community and the fans will be playing this for years to come. User-made content is one of the main ingredients for any game's longevity.

I'll buy the game even if it comes out on christmas eve ... I just hope you guys know what you're doing.

hey, if 1C dont know release date, how can any site know it?? Fortunetellers?? I can also make a site and write that AP will be released tommorow, will it happen??? I am not gonna believe any site except for 1C one

Really, who cares how long it takes? I want to play it too, and no a translation shouldn't take this long, but when it finally comes out on Gamergate I will be the first to download it. Can't wait.

they don't know for sure but changing the date with 3 month doesn't tell you anything?
come on, it's obvious.

KB:AP was supposed to be released Q3 (Jul, Aug, Sept.) we are now in September so I HOPE that it will be released at the end of this month, otherwise I can't understand why it has taken so bloody long when King's Bounty came out exactly 3 months after the release of the Russian version.
Come on IC do not keep us wondering and waiting any longer at least if you won't release the game soon let us know a release date so we stop wondering. And take it with a pinch of salt like I take the release of the vaporware title Diablo 3.

I would guess that if there's a delay it's probably for an accounting reason, like evening out the cashflow so you don't get nailed for the new release in the same tax year as the original release.

If this thing ever gets released in the states I might buy it, but I'll probably forget since it's taking so long.

I agree with many of the posts here. After frothing at the mouth last January with the 2009Q1 release date, and now hearing dates of late December, I've now moved on to other things and am indifferent to whether or not it ever comes out. Yes, I'll likely still buy it, but after all the ridiculous delay reasoning from 1C pointing at "translation" issues for several months (really?), it's left me with a bad taste in my mouth. Does it really take that long to translate text in an expansion pack, one that's smaller than the original? Come on guys, be up front.

They've lost the momentum, blown it. You've turned a hoard of rabid fans into apathetic cynics.
