Warlords for Mac precise release date?

[Premier]

Greetings everyone!

Does anyone have a conclusive release date for Warlords?

Until recently, Amazon stated a shipping date of Nov. 6, but today it merely states "shipping soon."

Apologies if this topic has been addressed previously, but I can't seem to find any reliable information on the exact release date.

Thanks,
-P

Hi, welcome

There is no date that I'm aware of. I have a pre-order in with a UK supplier, and they are simply forecasting "December".

Back on Sept. 22, Glenda Adams of Aspyr told InsideMacGames.com that Warlords was "on track for its November release." No more recent word yet if that still holds true...

Usually when somebody says something will ship on a certain month, it's the last day of the month, or like when they say something will be coming in the Summer it comes out mid-September. So be on the look-out for Warlords on Nov. 30

On Aspyr's site it says that Warlords is "In Stores", instead of "Coming Soon". I am not planning on going to look for it, though.

Thanks for the info guys...

I just went ahead and pre-ordered it from Amazon. After all, I don't suppose I'm going to get it faster from any local stores anyway...

Here's what my confirmation reads -
Shipping estimate for these items: November 13, 2006 - November 20, 2006

Of course, I know how these things tend to change, but thought I'd mention it anyway.

I wonder if they're actually going to test this one before they ship it. I'd rather it be a month or two later and working than here and busted.

I certainly hope so.

 

[Helmling]

Dare we hope that the Mac release will be current with the patched PC version?

I've noticed Brad popping up over at the IMG forums more lately. That's usually a good sign that he has or is wrapping up development.

We'll really know he's done when he pops his head in here to say "Helloooo.'

Don't assume that Brad is involved in Warlords personally

It said Nov 6th on the site.
I preordered it in US, it will ship faster there due to the release date for Europe (December).

This is actually a mail from Aspyr concerning Warlords.

Just copied from Amazon:

"This item will be released on November 13, 2006."

Aspyr just shipped The Sims 2: Pets, so Warlords is likely to follow soon.

 

[promethean_beta]

I just received a delay notice from Amazon this morning. I ordered October 3...

Shipping estimate: November 18, 2006
Delivery estimate: November 25, 2006 - November 28, 2006

Hmm ... not sure I see the link!

Oh, there was an article at IMG informing the public that The Sims 2: Pets and Warlords were coming soon. So using deductive reasoning skills, one could make such a statement.

I am guilty of assuming that any Mac Civ player would be connected to the premier mac gaming news site.

Well dojoboy, don't worry about it. It appears that you and I both assume too much.

I just never new Alan was so cynical.

j/k Alan.

A generational issue I'm sure.
