When can we expect it, in 3 months, 6?

It would sure be a lot easier to discuss the game and make suggestions if we had a gameplay video. A picture is worth a thousand words, but a video is worth a million.

Actually, we can expect the game in just over 6 months if they keep on scheduel. I think they're sticking to their Agile + Scrum stratagy, while progress still seems to be booming. Just be patient, it will be here before you know it (Thank God!).

Can you try again, you know, in creating a coherent sentence?

BTW, if this game will be released in 6 months it is a very bad sign that not a single video has been released so far. I don't think I have seen this happen in any game being developed and I've been tracking many games over the last 7 years.

They're just teasing us. I'm sure they could release a video right now, but hey they've been soooooo good with this teasing because it works! Look at ourselves, anticipation filled to the brim.

No, it was not phrased poorly. I intentionally phrased it like that so it would get more views so people would be reminded that this basic thing hasn't happened yet.

Just because other developer released game play videos for their games doesn't mean its something like a standard in gaming industry.

We are a forgetful lot it's true.

Alternativley, we have seen threads like this before. And established that, while not having a video or screen shots out isn't desirable for us, their marketing strategy is quite clear; a video will be released when they consider the time is right.
They seem to be doing quite well at the marketing/self promotion, so I'm willing to think they know what they are doing.

Russ has already mentioned their big push will come around GDC. That's march 5 - 9th 2012. So basically don't expect too much until then.

It will be in the near future, and its taking all of my willpower to control myself...
