Chapter 2 release date?
 
When is The Siege of Spinner Cay going to be release?

I know it's supposed to be about a month after chapter 1 but with august being less than 2 weeks away, I sorta expected a release date by now.

Do you think it will be released before or after Chapter 1's release on Wii?
Wii's release of ch.1 will seem outdated if it comes out after ch.2 is released on PC.
I remember EFMI's release on ps2 seemed really outdated because it was a while after I finished it on PC.

Regardless, I do think this method of releasing the game works a lot better for MI because I would be pretty disappointed if I had no more MI to look forward to in the coming months.
I would have definitely finished all 5 chapters by now otherwise.

Just give us an estimate. And over guess the number of days. That way, with the official announcement, it will seem like it's coming sooner!

the release is gonna be October 26th... and if i'm right i think i'll be hunted by monkey island fans from around the world *grabs camoflage and runs*

I think a release date would not be a wise idea yet. I assume they are figuring out technical issues some people had with chapter one, which should in my opinion have highest priority.
Therefore a release date would just make people angry if it could not be fulfilled.

Silverwolfpet 07/19/2009 03:10 am

They estimate it'll be released just before midnight on the 31st of August P(D?)ST. :p

I heard that too, but you forgot to mention 2010.

That does not mean that it has to be exactly one month between each episode. Telltale could release part 1 on july 1st and part 2 on august 31st and still call it "monthly". Not that I think they would do such a thing.

Wikipedia has it as August 9th. But it doesn't cite any sources, so that and a dollar will get you a mug of grog.

I was always excited to drink grog one day. When i read what it really was i was damn disappointed and refused to try it. No battery acid at all!

yeah, isn't grog just an alcoholic beverage mixed with a non-alcoholic beverage?
still, it would be fun to try the recipe given by the important looking pirates someday..

Yes, one version is rum, water and sugar. I felt like WTF when i learned about that while jobbing at a bar. Childhood dreams destroyed. It's like learning there's no Santa Claus.

tmfm2000 07/19/2009 01:55 pm

nice touch with the spoiler protection ;)

Well they used to have the exact dates for every episode with Sam & Max, I guess by not giving them it gives them some more breathing room if they release it a few days later.. You would expect it about a month after the last episode though. Anything in that second week of August

Yeah, unlike what Wikipedia says, it's not coming out on the 9th, where they get those infernal suggestions is beyond me.

Well, you worked at wrong bar, my friend. Grog is made of: rum, tea (or water), sugar, cinamon, orange juice (optional), carnation (optional, but is gives nice flavor)

I think it would be more piraty to chuck out the rest of the ingredients and just down the rum. At least it would be keeping with the 'spirit' of things. Terrible pun, I know.

tmfm2000 07/19/2009 02:55 pm

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grog

..just to clear that part of the discussion up...

rum+water=grog
the rest is optional

August 9th is a Sunday, so that is not the correct date.
