I think it's possible...just reading an interview with dave g. on planet-side universe:

"Is Sony Online Entertainment still shooting for an end of quarter 1 release?

Right now I’m not authorized to comment on that, but we will be starting the beta soon, and we are going to take some time to get this right. So until I get authorization to say the release date, I can’t modify the official statement."

This seems to indicate that it will be coming out later than stated...

It's the same thing that has been asked time and time again on this. They are shooting for Q1. Problem is, the beta is starting on Saturday. Can they make the Q1 goal? I think it's possible. But it depends on how much they need to run it through beta testing. Shouldn't be as extensive a beta as something like EQ or DAoC, but it will take time.

I am still slightly hopeful for the Q1 release.

BTW, Dave has consistantly stuck with a Q1 release, never has given a date and always prefaces with "it's up to SOE".

I am also hopeful for a Q1 release, and believe me, I find all the millions of posts about whether or not they will make it by then really annoying too. But this is the first I've seen where he's waffled, up to now it's always been, "we said Q1, and we're sticking to Q1". Now, suddenly, he's saying he doesn't have the authority to modify the original statement...that's a big difference. So I thought I'd bring it up. Let's keep our fingers crossed...

well god ******* damnit. i need a new game to play :( :( :(

I doubt very much we will see it in Q1, also if we did, it would be buggy as hell because it wasn't in beta very long. So I would expect this game to come out mid summer.

:hijacked: :hijacked:

Jester's always a pessimist. I think Q2 2003 is more realistic, but not Summer.

Well, remember what happed with T2, let's hope they keep it long enough to make it work or it'll be a lost endeavour.

Ya know, I'm still kinda hating the pay to play aspect. They better add new content or tweak things often or that $15 a month plus what we all pay for network connection will start to get on our nerves.

Back to Tribes 1 I guess...heh :)

i want planetside so bad lol.... when does q1 end and q2 start?

End of March is the End of Q1

i think TKB should do a comeback tour on the t1 base ladder, i can tell you, from the lvl of comp there is rite now, itd be cake.


besides, i still have all the TKB t1 skins....


oooooh, gaze at the original...

And I still know how to Heavy mine/disk jump from base to base on Snowblind jumping once and never hitting the ground!!! Course you're almost dead...but still it's possible.

I can't get T1 to run on my system.. T1 has issues with Glide, and my GF4 doesn't support OpenGL.

I think I still have 3 Voodoo3's laying around in the closet. That's what I'd put in to run T1 again. And get out my old 450MHz PII box.. LOL, run that **** with 100 FPS.

Hell, I sold all my old Hardware.I got T1 to run on 2 Voodoo2's pretty sweet in SLI mode. 50 fps that way with a P90 and 128Mb RAM. Not too shabby, really.

i'm hoping for a summer release... but then all the 12 year olds will tool us since they are out of school.

damn kids

**** i got my voodoo5 around here somewhere,, i was hitting 90 with that bitch on my old P2 266

That sounds backwards, dude.

Yep, it is backwards... But it still runs like hell on my rig.
