ET:QW Delayed to Fiscal Year 2008

It has been mentioned in Activision's Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2007 Preliminary Results that the release of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars has been pushed back into the 2008 fiscal year.

QuoteThe company believes that its fourth quarter results will be significantly impacted by higher legal expenses relating primarily to its internal review of historical stock option practices, including expenses relating to the previously announced informal SEC inquiry and derivative litigation, and its decision to move the release of Enemy Territory(TM): QUAKE Wars into fiscal year 2008.


Note: The 2008 fiscal year for Activision begins 1st April 2007.

What is a fiscal year? Any continuous 12 months, which is used by a business or government as its annual accounting period. The US government fiscal year ends on September 30. A fiscal year is designated by the year it ends. For example, an April - March fiscal year 1993 ended on March 31, 1993 and began on April 1, 1992.

Parent
nice news!
need more news like this!
lol expected
thats nice so et will be played longer <3
So what does this mean?

That ET:QW will be released after April 1 2007 because that's when the fiscal year of Activision starts.
idd sounds retarded, but as i understood it's cause they "over"fulfilled their plan.
Parent
Am I really the only one who has no idea what a fiscal is? :S
It even tells you what a fiscal year is in the original post. :/
Parent
still alive? rtcw!
Parent
metal slug 2 > rtcw
Parent

Parent
fra u never mentioned u were a metal slug fan?
Parent
as a matter of fact no =)! but i played it many many times when i was younger. PLUS on that game, 1 HIT = 1 KILL
Parent
did it happen to be 10 centimes a play in a french caravan park?
Parent
yes and thanks to emulators ;)

HAVE A LOOK ! oioi
Parent
so ET at QUAKECON 2007 NICE
Haha, I really doubt anyone will care 2008 about that game.
I'm sure more people will enjoy it than people have enjoyed ET, ET:QW will steal people from many games like W:ET, BF2(142), UT2004. SplashDamage know how to do things right and they are very open to the community.
Parent
According to gamespot it is suppose to be released in second quater of 2007.
so now it seems ET:QW will be released 1st April 2007 - 31th March 2008...anyways I hope it will be after Quakecon game announcements...
\0/ keep ET alive
X-------D
2008 YEARS.. BUT.. IS NOT REALLY NEGATIV
bad news,
ET:QW needs time to die before RTCW2 is released :D
ET:QW = will be rly shit(in my view)... :D
nice argumentation AdZz
Parent
Lol, AdZz..? :/ Kidding... :O
Parent
well hopefully ill be in my own little "cool" world in warhammer online to busy to care about ET:QW. Which is a shame cause it looks great.
I told you a week ago, USA release date is 5th of june.
Wow... been a while since I've been in here, loads of new people, even a new crossfire =D

Still 3 months left in Australia, but if ET:QW isn't going gold atleast until April, I may just have a chance to catch the beginning. That should be interesting, given the right computer.. Ow well, back to the way to hot summer downunder..Laters :)
