thu Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 This will be my worst Halloween. Watching others play this game when I get candy. I'm so jealous. Where is my game?
Gsam Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Any idea when early access will happen? I signed up for your email mailing list and have heard nothing. 1
LAVA Posted November 1, 2023 Posted November 1, 2023 Here is a post by Grim.Reaper on the GrogHeads forums: [quote]The news we have been waiting for! Sort of....although ready for EA release, they are having issues with their release platform:( Hopefully they figure out quickly.... We have good news and bad. I will start with the good part. We made huge progress with the game in October with the help of focus testers. Many of the game's crashes were fixed, the balance improved, a huge amount of game-breaking bugs were fixed, usability of different game mechanics was improved. The game is ready for EA release. The game will include the US campaign from April 1775 till August 1776. The campaign will contain 3 stages - Boston, ft. Ticonderoga and Canada. The content is good for learning the game and providing feedback that will help us improve the game. We will continue to develop further content for the US campaign opening the whole map after EA release. Now a bad part - Unfortunately we have an issue with the release now because the Xsolla platform has problems. We work with the Xsolla team to fix them ASAP.[/quote] pandakraut has released this video today: What I don't understand is why the forums here have been totally abandoned by the Dev Team.
colonel1689 Posted November 1, 2023 Posted November 1, 2023 Would be good if the devs popped in for those not on discord
LAVA Posted November 10, 2023 Posted November 10, 2023 Grim.Reaper stated that the launch date is Tuesday, November 14th. No other details, so who knows where it will be available.
colonel1689 Posted November 11, 2023 Posted November 11, 2023 Downloadable via xsolla on Tuesday. Steam will likely come next year at some point.
HollyMolly Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 How shall that be xsolla is not a Gaming Platform. It feels a bit not solid. How can i trust this? I have more questions than i get answers

Royal Fusilier Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 It sounds like I returned from my trip just in time!
HollyMolly Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 So 14.11.2023 10.30am in Europe no sign of the game 🤔🥴😕 When today? 🤔
Royal Fusilier Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 The platform that the game will be sold on is located in California, so I would assume that release will be around midday Pacific time. 1
thu Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) My name in game. I wonder what that is. Bloody America, where even the time zones are running fashionably late. Edited November 14, 2023 by thu
LAVA Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 Steam Keys Information – IMPORTANT Unfortunately Steam (Valve) has changed policy and we can no longer request keys in advance and they are no longer guaranteed. Thus these purchases can only be accessed through the Game Labs Launcher. If you want to play Ultimate General American Revolution on Steam, please wait for the Steam release (which could happen in Summer 2024).

So if i buy now i will not get a Steam key for this purchase in the future. If i want to play the game on Steam when it releases there i will have to buy the game a second time?

That is correct, due to a change in policy with steam and the increasing popularity of these games, steam will no longer be giving out a large amount of keys to early backers. The xsolla platform will remain completely separate from Steam and will permanently maintained and updated. If you, reasonably, would prefer to have the game on steam, you should wait until the game releases there when it is near its completion. Though this does mean you will miss out on several months of playing the game.

Been waiting for this game for years(have over 2k hours in UG:CW)and I wanted to buy the General Edition so I could have my name in game, as well as support the Devs. Hugely disappointed I can't buy it on Steam right now. So I'd like to know that when it does finally come to Steam, will it be the finished version of the game or will it still be kind of early access and I'll be able to buy the General Edition?
