Release plan

[lionhard]

As much as i love europa barbarorum from the years iv spent playing it to the people on the forums i feel let down by EB 2's over all progress, i mean rome 2 will be out before it!, theirs been barely any updates on whats going on and so much of the community has adrift, my general feeling is that the mod has almost been forgot about, i remember thinking in 2009 "i cant wait for the mod its so exciting", then every week checking the forums for news, iv barely been on for the last year and things havnt changed, actually they have its just go quieter :S sorry to put things so dull but its just how i feel :(((( i really hope things start moving faster because it really feels like no 1 involved in the making of this mod is interested any more :S. enjoy summer and i hope we canhave EB2 in 2013..... :S

So you had no idea that any of this existed?

The EB II forums can get pretty quiet sometimes, but if you check the twitter thread, previews, and the new dev blog you'll see that they've made a lot of progress since you were last active. I think the reason EB II is taking a lot longer than EB I is because they're doing a lot more with it than they did with EB I, plus there are 10 more factions that have to be researched and created. I also think that the initial release is going to be a lot more complete than the first release of EB I, which was only partly playable. And if you remember from one of the early stela, they are building this one from the ground up.

I get the feeling that EB II is going to be released sooner rather than later, because it seems like a lot has been finished.

I'm certain it'll be out before Rome 2, as well (which itself is being released only in fall-winter 2013, quite some time away).

I'm certain it'll be out before Rome 2,

Can never be certain of anything. I expect sources backing up this statement.

considering the speed at wich the game is being moded and considering the hardship of trying to manipulate it unleass some new tools come out i won´t be expecting a "full" release before 2014 maybe they can send out some mini missions like the mediterranean world or the western world mini games or something but the full release i have too many doubts all the work as probably been scheduled but people have a tendency to forget that just because it´s doable it can go faster and programing is something that is very dull and takes it´s times

it´s like building a house every brick must go into their proper place and that normally takes alot of time even if it´s not breathtaking original mindbogling work it´s still part of the process and it´s still time consuming

Insider info. Sorry, can't compromise my sources.

I don't post often but I lurk a lot.

I don't care if it does take until 2015/6 or whenever to release the mod as the forum is entertainment itself. It is the only non sports/news website I check pretty much daily so no 'let down' here.

Then like any true scientist I am going to have to discount your theory until the sources can be confirmed. Not that it matters. Its all a bit of fun as Olly said.

I am sorry to hear the Gaza campaign has been abandoned. It seemed like a good idea to test-run EB2, but I understand that without someone pushing for it, it turned into a timesink.
