Play had QW release date 4 months early initially.
Personally I'd pay no attention to anything until there is an official press statement.

If I were to guess I'd say Qtr 4 this year.

that's too soon, they are first gonna do a commercial campaign etc.. :)

They probably are but it hardly is a long task if you have the money, and considering gaming is not for all it's most likely target will be the internet, which isn't that time consuming (maybe 1 month of planning?)

wow!
e: wtf? they are stupid, its not an expansion, its a whole new game lol

24th of April feels a bit too optimistic date for release. On this years QuakeCon they will release the Free version from Quake III called QuakeLive. So perhaps in the next years, it might that that game what some peoples have anxiously awaited quite some time. I would eat my shoes if this date is actually correct.

Blogs are excellent way to speculate and get peoples attention just by spreading these kind of rumors.

Duke Nukem (Taking) Forever is just so old and blown out thread, so nobody ain't really that interested about it anymore.

pala 19 Jan 2009, 21:04
na actually its pretty close :P

They have been developing Wolfenstein since 2004 (?). It's really been a closed project so I'm guessing they actually have most of the game completed by now. Realistic date.

Insu 19 Jan 2009, 21:17
Actually we have heard rumors about RtCW2 since around 2005... And just before end of 2008 we got this 56s long teaser video showing nice looking graphics and flashy blue lights. We even haven't seen some real ingame footage videoclip from game yeat. I'll wait for the time when the closed beta testing starts for the game.
If there ever will be.

beggin 19 Jan 2009, 21:22
Yea the point I was trying to make is it's one of those games that are trying to build up alot of hype by not releasing real footage till a few weeks before the game is released, like GTA.

Wolfenstein is copyrighted for 2009 (and official site) so its certainly this year (except if they have delays again). That date of 26/6 or 24/4 is just some date the site give so u would already order the game. They would give it then when it comes out but they can always say it has been delayed etc... My guess is that its gonna be june or october/november, probably the latter.

I hope for ID Software that this game got a nice Multiplayer :s
▼
Insu 19 Jan 2009, 21:23
I think the single player campaign is developed by Raven Software. And the multiplayer part by GreyMatter(Like they did for the RtCW)
Parent
▼
Sainted 19 Jan 2009, 22:45
The SP is indeed being made by Raven Software, but the MP is being made by EndRant (a studio formed by some former SplashDamage employees), possibly in assistance of Threewave Software (who have stated to have made some of the MP maps).

And for RTCW, the SP was made by GrayMatter and the MP by Nerve Software. GrayMatter is actually not arround anymore, they merged with Treyarch (the company behind Call of Duty: World at War).

Raven announced they were working on a new game this week... http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/18565/Singularity-Raven-Softwares-New-Shooter-Revealed/

Not sure what that means for wolfenstein...

They have been working on singularity for quite some time already, first read about it last year at the E3 afaik. They are also working on another X-men game. Its common for a company the size of Raven to work on multiple projects at once.

Oh, come on, how can you all wait for Wolfenstein so much if it's built on THE SAME engine on which is based also THE EVIL ETQW, and on the same engine which will never provide THE SAME experience as on ID Tech 3 engine did RTCW & ET? :D
