Pre Pre-Announcement announcement?

[No.54_Reddog]

Hello All

 

I have received confirmation from Fulqrum the Announcement of the scenario and content for the TF 6.0 DLC will be made in the first two weeks of September.  (next month)

 

A more exact date for the announcement will be coming later.

 

In Buzzsaw's announcement of August 10th, where he said that there would be an announcement in the first two weeks of September he indicated that a more exact date for that announcement would be coming later, making his original pre-announcement a pre pre-announcement if you will. 

As we are in September now, is the lack of this date an indicator that the pre pre-announcement was premature? Or should we expect to find out the exact date on the exact date it happens?

 

Yours,

Puzzled, of Dover. 

(Just a bit of fun to cheer up a dreary wet friday morning)

I'd just tie it all together and go for September 15th, Battle of Britain Day, ?

I'm pretty sure Buzzsaw was just joking about the pre pre announcement. 6.0 was cancelled. You guys can carry on with your normally scheduled programs.

"We are working on a schedule for everything... with the exception of the Visual Update which is breaking new ground... but it will completed prior to TF 6.0."

 

I'm still puzzled as to how it's possible to have no timeline for completing the TF 5.0 Visual Update for cause that completing it requires "breaking new ground" while simultaneously having certainty that TF 5.0 Visual Update will be available prior to a TF 6.0 release.

In fact! And you will notice that it is always the same ones barking.

[Mysticpuma]

Well don't lump me in with those comments, I was actually very positive with my suggestion? Announce it on a landmark date?

I can now honestly announce that I personally plan to comment on this announcement as soon as it is being announced. But not a day sooner!

I think nobody did it, Puma.

 

By the way, Reddog, thank you for opening the present thread, I'm sure that was absolutely necessary...

 

 

[Buzzsaw]

We are aiming for September 15th... there is a chance this could change... but if so, only by a week or so.

 

Fulqrum has been busy this summer first with their GDC San Francisco and then Gamescon, the work which just finished August 27th.

 

Thanks for everyone's patience.

[No.54_Reddog]

15th makes sense, good luck with getting there.

Hello all, just a suggestion: don't just talk about Fulqrum Publishing Ltd. Talk to Fulqrum Publishing Ltd.

Please do not post contacts for Fulqrum... we don't want Fulqrum to have to deal with a deluge of comments from the community.  They are working with us to complete the project.

Thanks Buzzsaw you saved us from a lot of "investigative work!"

[BENKOE]

Thanks for the well-intentioned advice. I appreciate the explicit note that FULQRUM Puplishing Ltd. supports Team Fusion's work. That's a straightforward statement, that is. It wouldn't be very smart to assume that 1C Entertainment suddenly decided to go against its own product just because the company name changed to Fulqrum. Right?

Can't wait but one of my biggest wishes for 6 is a new menu as it's hard to get use to it.

See my update.

I've seen that it's really sad tbh as that was going to be one of the highlight of the week. But I understand it though 

[Mtnbiker1998]

 

At this point, can't say I'm surprised. Hell, I'm not sure the announcement would have changed anything anyway. Still no sign of VR or the Visual update, I can't imagine 6.0 coming any time soon announced or not.

[No.54_Reddog]

And TF maintain their 100% record...

[simfan2015]

OK, but then I reckon this is gonna be a world changing event that will turn heads.

Maybe even bigger than the first flight of the wright brothers, maybe even more amazing than ... the first iphone !

Can't wait, can't even sleep till then !

Do you want to know more ?

Well on the Clod Facebook page, it appears the announcement will include the release date for V6.... but there is also comment that the VR, Graphics and Speedtree update may not be released until V6 comes out ??

You couldn't write a better comedic tragedy, really.

Could you post the exact wording or link to it relating to the Visual Update "may not be released until V6 comes out"?

And that's from a TF member right? Interesting.

[simfan2015]

That would not surprise me at all. 

V6 Release date... hopefully a year will be mentioned.

Back on topic one has to wonder what an earth is going on when (I assume) a newcommer to TFS drops a bomb like that in such a casual throwaway manner. Almost as if, internally, it has ever been so.............

 

I guess the bit of the announcment most of us were actually interested in dropped early afterall.

Tbh If the FW's are not the selling point then it has to be ether the Spit IX or the Mustang

I think as many have said over the many months and years, it's likely to be the Typhoon ?

True it could be the Tyhoon but at least we will know sooner than the GB lot

Well, fortunately for him, Joshua doesn't appear to have said anything we didn't already know. Maybe he's the new TFS publicity person? Whatever his role, its good to see that TFS are on boarding new members to thicken their ranks.
