At least according to Computer Gaming World, April edition of the Pipeline

HAHAHAHAHAHA Battlecruiser must really be top priority for everyone over at
DreamCatcher. Dreamcatcher is treating BC just as if they were the developer for
it. They can't help telling lies about it! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Of course they meant BC-Gold not BC-Generations would be due out this month. I
don't remember if people made predictions when BC-Gold would be due out? I think
I did make a prediction but, I don't remember what it was. I'll repredict August
for BC-Gold. I do remember saying that multi-player would only support 2 or 3
users on-line when it did come out though and I'll stick with that.

my bet is that it'll be so damn buggy that it won't be playable even for 2 - 3
players... =P

..and what's the point of having a persistant universe for 2 - 3 players
anyway??

They say this month ? add 6 to 12 months.
Multi player won't work at all if it's even included.

Probably the same point as being able to post to the BC3k forum for
the MP "lobby". NONE!

I'm sure the claim will be that 8 or 16 players can be supported but I'm just
guessing that the lag will get too bad for it to be very reasonable. Playing a
Battlecruiser like game multi-player should be fun. Either you can team up or
death match play. Both sound like it would be fun.

Sounds like an excellent plan to me. It would generate so many laughs that the
fun would never stop.

I would much prefer teaming. Having someone command the carrier while your
mates fly fighter cover could be great fun. Then all of a sudden I wake up and
realise who I'm dealing with and the dream just dies! :-(

Just got my edition, it doesn't say March but Q3 which is 3rd Quarter.
It would have been more realistic if they had used unknown like some
other listings. Guess Dreamcatcher will be the next publisher to play
the moving release date for BC.

Oh, I see, it's Q3 2003 not O3 2003. I'm willing to bet that Q3 2003 is also a
lie.

DreamCatcher? Publisher of "not quite finished game"? How interesting for
Derek!
