Bracken Tor release date pushed back again!

I didn't receive a press release from Iceberg yet, but I had a look at the Official Website and I found out that the release date is now September 9th 2011
Let's hope it's the definitive date, but I'm sure the game will be worth the wait

Aieee! Thanks for the update, Carla.

Thanks Carla! I look forward to it whenever it comes out.

It's going to be a beautiful game! I'm looking forward to it.

I hope it will NOT Require a 3d graphic (card)to be able to play it-there's still so many of us that don't have a pc with that! But as before would rather it take longer than have a mess when it is released! Have been looking forward to this game.

for the update Carla.

Hi

Yep !! Disappointing

But hopefuuly the game will be worth the wait !!

Thanks for the update, Carla.

Cheers.

Gamenut,
It looks like you may be out of luck. Here are the system specs. I don't think I will be able to play it either. I only have a 1.8 ghz AMD Athlon cpu.

Minimum System Requirements
OS: Microsoft® Windows XP®,Vista®, 7
CPU: 3.0 Ghz Intel® Pentium® IV or AMD® processor
RAM: 512 MB RAM (XP®), 1 GB RAM (Vista®, 7)
DRIVE: 4x CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive
HD SPACE: TBA
VIDEO: 128 MB DirectX® 9.0C Compatible 3D accelerated video card, supporting 32bit (true color) colour depth at 1024x768.
SOUND: 16-bit DirectX® 9.0C Sound Card

I'm sure you'll be able to run it. How much processing power can a slideshow game need? The resolution is quite low too, most new games are almost double that.

Hi guys, havn't been here in a while!

>>How much processing power can a slideshow game need?

True, but it also has realtime 3D animation I belive, as with The Lost Crown and Dark Fall: Lost souls. The higher Pentium speed would seem to suggest higher quality realtime models.

I dont know how this one got past me. First I've heard of it, but it looks really good.
And its gonna be released right in time for the Halloween season... my favorite.

I agree with Gamer. These games are meant to be played in dark days of autumn. I'm looking forward to this!

Well. Now it'll be a year late. That's impressive...But, I wait eagerly still.

Glad I didnt know about it way back when, the wait isnt so long for me.

I believe that if you have a Core 2 Duo, this should be more than adequate processing power to run the game, b/c a Core 2 Duo @ 2.53 Ghz (rated as a high mid-range CPU) can handle more data processing than a Pentium 4 @ 3 GHz (rated as a low mid-range CPU).

This is just MMHO - mods, please correct me if I'm wrong?

Guess I haven't been in here in a while either .

Forgive my noobish question but if I see supports 32-bit, does it necessarily mean my win 7-64 may not support it?

With regard to 3D cards, I really don't get the fact that I've just finished playing the first Crysis game without so much as a slowdown (the graphics were phenomenal!) and I STILL can't get the first Adam's Venture game to run on my machine. Disappointing...

Keeping fingers crossed for a september release.

Ikonius -- I've played games on my win 7-64 bit system that did not list it as a supported OS, and I've usually had no problems. I'm definitely expecting to be able to play Bracken Tor! Time will tell, I gues.

My UK website says expected despatch 4 Sep 11.
I do know that when Matt was told how long it would be before the distributors were going to release the game he took it back and has expanded it from the original. So a longer wait but a better and longer game.

I've played so many HOGs waiting for Bracken Tor to be released I think I've forgotten how to play a real game.

I'm sure it will be worth the wait though.

From the Publishers web site (Iceberg) it states "This product will be available Sept. 9th"

Finally! Waiting is a job for patient people, not for me!

I have this game on Pre-order at Interact...Seems like ages ago

I know what you mean.

There are rumours that the game will be released for Halloween...I guess it will be best to wait after the Gamescom to find out.

Yes, Cathy1, I won't be able to play this game. Requirements too steep. Such a shame...I think will probably just have to give up Adventure gaming as most games coming out are just too advanced for my pc and cannot afford a new one. At least can enjoy some of the bigfish casual dark and creepy games..but still not the same as full length, in depth game. However, know I'm not the only one with this problem by a long shot-so there will be many others disappointed as well.

I've just pre-ordered the game on Amazon UK, the release date there is October 31st, hence the rumours were right, we are going to see the game for Halloween!
Nothing official yet though.

Yes, I just noticed that the brackentor.com site now lists the release date at 'near Halloween 2011'. Oh well, can't say I'm surprised. Hopefully it'll be worth the wait.

News from Amazon UK- despatch- 3rd Nov this year, next year??????????????????

Do you think Bracken Tor will be sold on the US Amazon? Cuz I live in the USA. Any price estimates yet? D/l or disc copy?

I am sure Interact will have it and the price from Iceberg is 39.99.

Please post computer questions in Glitches.

I've had it on pre-order with Interact for (seems like) about a year now. The price there is 29.95.

Hi gamenut,
How Old is your PC? What are the specs?
If it's not TOO Old, sometimes just popping in a new Video card will bread more life into your PC, and it doesn’t have to be a Top of the Line one and they are not that expensive, I am sure that there are many members or Mods. here that can direct you to places where you can get them at a really good price.

Gamenut -- the experts in the Glitches forum can advise you about upgrading or buying a new computer if the time has come for that big step.
