well maybe it's still better than be a loyal dog constantly licking Ubi's arrse... and maybe for some people march equals summer.. for me it doesn't.. i'd actually prefer blizzard's "soon" which doesn't give false information, rather than date which is changing all the time...

Man, grow up ... Don't you grasp the concept of a "target date" ? They never said the game would be released in March, they never said the game would be released in Spring either. They said they were aiming at March, which fast became Spring and ended up being 2011. There has NEVER been an official release date until they actually posted it.

And just to say, you're confusing your "March 11th" with "March 2011". They never ever put March, 11th in their trailer ... Not a single game developper does, unless the date is fixed.

it's not about growing up.. it's about people having different opinion.. in this particular case i have opinion which differs from the vast majority of you guys, which absolutely doesn't mean you think more mature than me.. maybe it's common in game industry to give wrong dates of release, i don't know, cuz i do not play many games.. but i do expect game dev's to be particular about game release date.. i really expected that the game will be available in march, and i forgive them for the first "spring" delay.. but July is simply too much for me.. i think it's just simple disrespect to HoMM fans! What if they delay it again until december, and then again... it's not normal..
in the end of the day i have a right to have my own opinion the same way as you do.. so hakuna matata!

Well then you should like Ubi because they haven't once "corrected" a release date since they never gave one. Check the interviews again Evan is always talking about "aiming for a X release". Nel already told you everything there is to say it's not like you'll give up complaining.

@DarkLord

It's very common in gaming industry to push back the release date. Most gamers are used to it already.

Edit: And yeah, like others have said Ubihole hasn't really give an official exact release date until recently, which is the June release date.

Except that Darklord considers Ubisoft has been constantly pushing back the game when there has been no official release date until last week.

Watch the H6 trailer on Youtube, the one uploaded on August, 17th. You'll see that even there, the game was announced for 2011, not March, not Q1, not Spring.

In every single interview, Erwan has said they were aiming at a Q1 2011 release and that they were hoping the game would be ready in March 2011.

In every single answer about the release date, Xhane has said they're aiming for Spring 2011. She NEVER said March, April, May or June.

There's a huge difference between a target date and a release date.

It's not because some random guy on some random board says a date that it means it will be the official date. It's not because Amazon has been listing the game for a March, 15th or March 27th release since December that it means they're right. Elvin has been saying that quite often, but it seems some people are just too stubborn... and prefer whinning, even when they're wrong

  Problem is we weren't supposed to see so much  ... another Ubi bumbling caused the entire Naga Faction creatures description to be put on there site, when this week we ware supposed to get only the Kappa, so for the next month will be like fishes on dry land.

I prefer whiners to ass lickers but DarkLord makes a valid point and I don't consider him to be a whiner. I'm happy I got my dose of Sanctuary info. What bugs me is the abilities. Who's the shooter/flyer/caster of each faction again(please don't answer, i'm being sarcastic).

I understood almost completely nothing from the description. I also wanted models more than the descriptions. Also the site is so confusing right now, I think that the reputation section is a real mess.

They've fixed the website. Sanctuary and reputation section are closed again because clearly they don't intend to show those sections yet.

Actually it is worse than that.
Every industry that lives down the street of a company who has a cousin that has something vaguely to do with computers, in every single one of those making the target date is more rare than a fist-sized diamond.
Making large computerprograms is mind-bogglingly complex and error-prone. Everyone who's done any sort of programming knows this. And for every problem fixed, two or more pop up. Now multiply such complexity times the number of employees working at a single game/program, add the constant looking over the shoulder done by manager-types and publisher. Than perhaps you understand how stressfull and diffcult it is.
I know this firsthand, I used to study informatics at university. But I found I cannot handle such stress and I'm a sloppy programmer. Both make the other worse.

So forgive me, but I do consider complaining about pushbacks in release-schedules whining. And Ignorant Whining at that.
Nothing personal, DarkLord.
