TSE 1.0 Release Date Challenge
by Adam Schofield · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 04/19/2006 (7:18 pm) · 40 replies
Hi Folks, thought I'd start a Milestone 4 Challenge, the rules are simple. Just hazard a logical guess at the release date for TSE 1.0 (i.e. Milestone 4), no editing your guess and don't pick a date just because its your birthday. The only prize is bragging rights and no cheating by GG staff ok ;)

Friday October 13 2006 Just because its my birthday

When it's done!
Seriously though, my guess is mid to late summer of this year.

I'd say a few weeks late IGC, they'd show off the tech there and 'Fix up the bugs' to do the final release. October 19 or 20.

I have special access to the release date of TSE 1.0 and I'm telling you that it will be released on EDITED for the weekend of the EDITED so don't get as drunk as you ussually do each year because you will have a new toy to play with.

They will release TSE 1.0 and Torque Constructor on the same day and then watch the servers melt from all the downloads :)

I think it wil be "ready" before IGC, but I put "ready" because I'm not so sure. Usually fresh releases are announced there, but I think this is a pretty harder match.
Just one tough: Please, GG team, finish the TorqueScript function reference documentation ASAP.
(Now realised how to call that incomplete section of the docs: I bet someone now better understand what I meant when I sayd "docs are incomplete").
Bye, Berserk.

June 06, 2006 because in the dark undercrofts beneath the GG headquarters, TSE is codenamed Damien.

So I would have to go with late November. Perhaps the 18th or later.

This is an interesting one. I guess it would be out before Xmas as that would probably hamper sales if it weren't. They still have to take the whole product through QA which could take a month or more, seeing that this is a major release. Then you've got to add some time for extra additions that they see as profitable, and then of course retesting after that.So I would have to go with late November. Perhaps the 18th or later.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is Damien? My google search didn't turn up anything useful. 
#19
@Stefan, in case you're not joking...
"June 06, 2006" = 666
"Damian" = spawn of the devil or something like that.
he was asking if you were Damian I guess.
As for the TSE release date, erm... November 5th :p

666 isn't the release date of TSE 1.0, it is the release date of Torque Constructor.
Torque Constructor... so good... it's eeeeeevvvvvviiiiiiiillllllllllllll. Has to be released on the evilest date of the millenia. :P

Damian is the name of the child in the Omen who is supposed to grow up to be the Anti-Christ.666 isn't the release date of TSE 1.0, it is the release date of Torque Constructor.
