They're probably still making the strategic decisions: What tech to use for the new engine (or what engine to reuse), what philosophies to develop with, organizational hierarchy for the new team, etc.

I don't think PS:N will have a 2011 release at all. At the earliest I'd predict a beta around this time next year.

Okay, seriously, who the heck are you? STOP TROLLING!

The game is in development for quite a while now. The Code is apperently mostly finished according to The9, they are doign artwork as we already saw screenys, in fact they are already in the internal alpha for quite a while now. Now get you damn facts right and stop trying to troll us.

Topic: we know nothing. We know absoluty nothing how long till we see beta, how long till we get facts, and how long till the producer letter comes along. But in any way, THIS week will be the first week of actual, solid information. Not sit down, stay tuned, and get a towel ready, because you may want to dry your pants after you wet them.

FortunadoAE antacids ftw!!!! oh and bridges and goats.... mmm manmarinade goat...... shame you can't eat that with ulcers.

Read Mr Smedleys post if you don't believe it thats fine but I doubt you will get another source telling you anything else from Sony.

Just gone through Smedleys posts and I see nothing about bridges and goats!

I keep on checking, but no producers letter yet... I know we got a small slice of info yesterday, but its only acted as an appetiser for me; I want the main meal.

Well after the display by Smed NC & T-Ray VS, this new producer better be a TR sycophant or there will be trouble!

Well they did say the letter would be this week, so I'm expecting it on Friday. If it comes any sooner, then bonus.

Yeah, and Smed popping his head in yesterday was a great little appetizer. It was literally like going to a fancy restaurant, you order a really nice entree, and then the head chef comes to your table to give you a special appetizer while you wait for the prime rib.

I agree with you, the appetizer was awesome, but I'm ready for some prime rib too.

Friday is pretty typical for such announcements. The layoffs/PS:N announcement on 4/1 was cruel though. I spent the weekend hoping it wasn't an April Fools.

Yea Friday evenings seems to be SOE's typical operating procedure.

Need to send a care package consisting of (Beer, Wine, Whiskey, Gin, and Vodka) to the SOE staff.

Why?

Because as we all know “What Soberness Conceals, Drunkenness Reveals”…

Every other SOE game has had it's Producer's Letter come out, and even though we were told explicitly "this week" still no letter. If it doesn't come out today..../facepalm is all I can say.

''we hope to bring you at least a few words from the Producer next week to whet your appetite and anticipation for the future''

not 'promise', 'guarantee', not even 'explicitly told' are anywhere in that sentence , directly copied and pasted from the official forums.

If there's no letter by the time I wake up I'm going to be a sad panda.

[Aractain]

Im assuning it wont come out this week (maybe I be wrong yay?) so im expecting someone to post some update about when it will be. Ill facepalm if they don't do that. :P

Me too , I want the mystical 'Holy Grail' letter as much as everyone else . I've just grown tired of speculation and mis-quotation , and wishful thinking . When it comes , great . In the meantime I expect nothing so no dissapointment arises.

hope is the key word, I don't expect to see anything.
