Dominance War V - Delayed again

Emil Mujanovic

No, I haven't double posted and I guarantee that you're not experienced deja-vu, this is a second delay to the Dominance War main challenge.

 

As is customary with the Dominance War main challenge, you'll have to experience a round of delays before the contest kicks off.

But from what we've been told this will be final delay as there are a few key things the organizers wanted prepared before the main challenge launches. We've been assured it will be worth the wait.

The new launch date will be Tuesday 8th March, 2011 so you have less than a week to warm up for the biggest Dominance War challenge to date.

Good to hear it's the final delay.

MissMaddyTaylor

Hahaha WTF!

sltrOlsson

Hehe yeah. You'r not waiting for the final start date, you'r just waiting for the final delay :P

They should just tack on an extra month to the start date so there's no "delay" for these things.

Hang about. Why can't they release the brief. Let people get started ffs. The voting system, etc can be done while people are working on it....right?

Anyhoo...delays were expected. Dom War wouldn't be Dom War without them.

Alemja

This delay is so bad that the DW site hasn't been updated about it yet.

The dominance war countdown is still aiming for march 4th midnight (says march 3rd but that's today)
Reminds me of Valve delays, I have to put myself in the mind set that the actual date is at most a week after.

Norron

At least it's consistently late. So we expect it to be.

JFF

Well as someone who used some time off today and tomorrow to be able to get a good start on the comp, ...I'm a bit disappointed!

scrawld

I REALLY wish they would stop using a count down timer.

MESMURDA

boooooooo

daphz

oh COME ON. I was so pumped...

Arkadius

Wheres the Polycount Competition...?

akacg

Ya as many delays DW has polycount could have ran there own comp and completed it by now. Come on this is really disapointing

achmedthesnake

duke nukem will come out before this....

STRIKER

rather be awesome then half assed ! i can wait and finish up other stuff in the meantime.

jeremiah_bigley

yeah I am swamped with stuff atm. So the more delays the better? lol As of now I am kinda bummed I don't get to take part in the War. Too much going on.

slipgatecentral

Is this delay has something to do with Charlie Sheen going nuts?

JFF

LOL I hadn't thought of that! Entirely possible as Sheen himself said......

“I’m an F-18 Bro. And I Will Destroy You In The Air. I Will Deploy My Ordinance To The Ground.”

Vinterdragen

This delay helps me to clean a bit my schedule to dedicate more time for DW!

"An additional final delay has occurred. For additional details about these two delays, please wait until the launch of Dominance War V to find out why."

~ please wait for the delays to end in order to find out the reasons for the delays ~

seanpetitt

Confused now, there is a play button that does not work, and no more countdown...what is going on? It's tuesday, I thought, "Today is the Day for Dominance".

Stinger88

I think its starting in about 4hours...ish. But we'll see eh.

Yeah, apparently that B&W image is meant to be a Dom War trailer but its only working for a few people. I cant view it in any browser. I hope the addition of a trailer wasn't the reason for one of the delays.

Stinger88

ah...its just an image after all. People were joking about seeing the video.

Obviously putting an image up was to disguise the countdown clock and try and fool us into thinking there would be no more delays.

jumbo_spaceman

Any news on what' this means?

thebubz

I'm guessing there will be an animation at the launch of the event we can all ooh and aah at before we start our projects.

profchaos354

I'm gonna be really frustrated if this third secret delay was just for the silly trailer :

TheRedFish

that same stupid play picture that doesn't work is up still, has anyone heard anything from Fred?

wake

has anyone heard anything? Do we even know what the general prompt is? Start sketching stuff out maybe?

krisCrash

If it's anything like Pre-war we can't use stuff we already did before hand any way, so you better not post them sketches

OH MAN I am curious for this. Maybe it's not so bad it was delayed, I have a deadline tuesday, so I can almost begin with the rest of you after that.

MEK

Another delay?

or has it started without people bothering to make a forum post about it? :S
