Progress of EB2

Why do people ask questions like these? They are irrelevant. EB II can be released in three months, but it will be a helluva incomplete mod. It can also be released in three years and it will be better than all of the TW games put together. It is not a question of completion. EB II will probably not be fully complete even in six years from now. The first public version of EB II is probably going to be missing huge amount of stuff. More so than in EB I v 0.81. In EB I, the EB team already had half of the work done by CA, whereas in M2TW, almost all of it will start from scratch.

The more time is spent on EB II, the less patches and versions of it are going to be subsequently released. The EB team could have waited much more time to release EB I, releasing it as v 1.0 and not 0.81. I would not ask for any kind of dates, as they only have a detrimental effect.

To pressure EB II team to release a highly incomplete EB II would simply tarnish the Europa Barbarorum’s reputation as being the most complete RTW mod (and the best!). Not to mention, the less time EB team members spend answering silly questions and moderating forums, the more time they will have on EB II

Why do people whine about questions like these? It's as if they want the EB2 forum to be completely inactive until it is released, because any speculation is just completely stupid and a waste of the 2 years of free time we have until it comes out.

Speculation and giving ideas is different from nagging the EB team to go faster, which is what this thread doing in reality.

You're completely overreacting.

All this sounds like an excerpt from the movie "The Agony and the Ecstacy" from 1965.

Pope Leo keeps on badgering Michelangelo over the Sixtine Chapel: "When will you make an end of it?!"

Michelangelo (aka Charlton Heston) yells "When I'm finished!"

Half the movie is built on that theme

Maybe because they are new to the forum and like 95% of all newcomers to any forum anywhere on the internet have not bothered reading the FAQ. That´s my guess anyway.
Go easy big guy.

So on what date will EB2 be released?

Best leave it as a happy surprise, or the EB II team will grows angry ... they have another jobs to be done too...
