Rebirth release date. - Part 2

Post by **CBJ** » Fri, 7. Jun 13, 16:33

Tri Synergy are not exhibitors at E3 but they will be there.

Deepsilver are the publisher in Europe and are responsible for the boxed copies of the games, as they have been with all the X series games since X2. As Cycrow said, Enlight were the last US publisher we had, but there was no US publisher for our more recent games so some US retailers may well have imported the European version. Things get more complicated for other parts of the world; there have been various different arrangements for Australia in the past, for example, and I don't know exactly how things will work this time.

well when i bought the x super box and before that bought x2 the threat back in 2006 they all had deep silver logos on them, which must mean here in Australia the retailers and games stores are just importing the European versions here.

Direct download from the Egosoft site, as a non-steam encumbered version?

Hey, I'm allowed to try, aren't I?

I don't yet know in exactly what capacity they will be there, what they will be showing, or to whom, but I'll let you know if and when I find out more.

The lack of information in this post is very disturbing. You could have simply said idk

Gee that is funny... All and I mean every single box of Egosoft software I bought at stores here in Detroit Michigan have Deep Silver's logo on it and never have I even heard of Tri Synergy.
you sure you didn't just buy the european version ?

previous games were published by Enlight in the US.
But for TC, there was no US publisher, some game stores just imported european versions to sell

The copy of TC I purchased in Nashua, New Hampshire says published by IGS Interactive Gaming Software. Are they now Enlight?

Seems mods are running the show, and they're as clueless as the rest of us are!

I think they wore all in hiding

Did you hear about UFO attack in Germany

Oh, I forgot all about IGS. They were not Enlight, no. They published a boxed edition of X3TC, so it was only X3AP that didn't have a US publisher at all. Well, that and X-Tension but that was way back.

Hey CBJ. A year or so ago, you got a lot of the developers to post just to say they're still there and working on Rebirth. Is it possible to get everyone to post again and have them say what aspects of the game they are working on? (Without breaking any NDAs of course) Would be nice for those of us new to the X-Universe (started on TC 2.0) to know who the developers are and what parts of the game they work on. I just know there has to be more then just the few people we saw in those short video clips.

Edit: I guess this is a little off topic. If the developers agree to this, maybe one of them could start a new thread.

zavvi.es a uk store for Spain is reporting July 26th!

I just came and hit www.egosoft.com and it redirected directly to http://www.egosoft.com/games/x_rebirth/info_es.php so I almost had a heart attack thinking it was now being announced for inmediate release...

A few posts back was just discussing Tri Synergy being the NA publisher for Rebirth, and CBJ confirmed it on the previous page. Amazing how many questions can be answered just by reading back a little.

Jep, I had also a heart attack xD Not only the spain website has changed. German version too. This must be a sign!

Please EGOSOFT/Tri Synergy, show us X:R on E3!!!

Quick, someone find Bernd's likeness in a burnt piece of toast!

Seriously though, it's nice to hear that there's at least some measure of progress (no matter how ambiguous). But I'm not getting myself worked up until I see an explicit date on Egosoft's home page.

And still no useful info at all here. Droll conversation at best.

Back to Star Citizen' web page. Too bad too....rebirth had some good stuff going for it, too. I had high hopes for it.

Said it once & will continue to say it....At this rate, SC will be out before rebirth.

The truly sad part is many here are too arrogant to think that it doesn't matter if SC is out first or not.

Why would that be arrogant?

The_Mess · Post by **The_Mess** » Mon, 10. Jun 13, 09:46

SC is very much a different beast to X:R due to the lack of buyable and buildable stations, player influenced economy, and lack of AI controlled ships you can buy and make use of, so there's somewhat different markets niche space for each title.

Main draw for SC though will probably be instanced PVP, which appeals to the old freelancer crowd + the faction system, whereas the trade system will probably be semi-static and thus lack the dynamic nature of EVE's economy or the more mechanical system in the X games (to date, X:R might be a bit more dynamic).

What!?...I haven't completed my comp. upgrade yet for this game!

(I'd better get my finger out...sharpish

)

Still...there's roughly 7 months left before 2013 ends, and I have a gut feeling X Rebirth will be released sometime in November of this year...or it just could be that I haven't had breakfast yet
