"...ready or not (here it comes!)"

This is great at the one hand but dangerous at the other. They make an interim solution in terms of documentation, performance and stability. And as many of you know, such interim solutions meant to be temporarily can last forever (like they did in the last BV version).

I am not sure if this is the right attitude for software engineering and development. And there is a reason why the first comment to this announcement is:
"Get it right, don’t rush it folks, I certainly do not mind. Those that are eager, please be patient, this crew does a great job."

But lets see what happens this time.

Jepp, lets hope that all goes right.

And another missed date...

The last news :

------
Release dates are evil

The last 10% of any project takes as long as the first 90%. This is pretty much true about any project, and unfortunately, my estimate that we’d be ready for earlier this week got blown out of the water. There are a couple of reasons why we are delaying things, but the biggest is simply that this will also be the first ‘public’ version of GameCore, and we want everything to go smoothly for the release.

Even with the extra days of development / polish, we will still be woefully unprepared I’m sure - documentation is a nightmare as always - and trying to document software that does as much as GameCore does is an extremely factor of difficulty to the task.

So, we are hoping for later this week, but at this point I’m going to stop (again) mentioning release dates and simply go with the ‘iD’ method - it will be done when it’s done. Which will be soon…ish…

Stability wise and feature wise I'm pretty happy with GameCore as it is, it's the documentation that's the important bit so I hope it's worth waiting for.

And we are waiting and waiting and waiting.....they don't rush it.

i have spoken with mike from GC team, he write me over MSN

MIKE: there's a bunch of stuff broken at the moment, it won't be ready to go until tomorrow (21.juni) unfortunately. we've redone the launcher and some other stuff but it's not finished quite yet.

he say for 2 days beta starts, but nothing, is very unprofessionel, no infos on blogsite or launch the old forum.

i had see new shots from the beta, realy nice shots and features.
