Very sweet message from Frederik Schreiber. A message to The Team, Our Fans, Friends and Family:
https://www.facebook...201494713107509
"The Time has Come! My life long dream has finally come true. Today my company Interceptor Entertainment, which I established 1.5 years ago, is releasing it's first big title - Rise of the Triad. It has been my dream to start my own Studio, and Design Games.
It has been an amazing journey, and so far people seem to love it.

Rise of the Triad was made with sweat, tears and love, and is a product of 35 of my closest team members, working together in a virtual team, doing what we all dream about. I just want to say THANK YOU, to all of our beloved fans, our family and most importantly - My Team! You guys have become family to me, and I'm extremely excited to continue working with you in the future! Rise of the Triad is NOW AVAILBLE. Go get it on Steam, GOG and anywhere else - It's only $15 and it's probably the most badass shooter you will play in a very long time "

24 hour clock here

Steam page says: Unlocks on 31st July 2013
My clock says: it's 31st of July 2013 12:37 (because it's also a calendar)
Steam page undertext says: unlocks in 10 hours

So it will unlock 2 hours before 01st August. Bogus. I hate down time which I wait for something so trivial, but meh.
I guess I'll read a book.

I don't mind waiting for the Steam release

Launch trailer too I guess, even though it's the same old.

But, they also said they will most probably patch in stuff later (multiplayer bots, for example). So why shouldn't manual saves be among the things to be patched in too.

Because the game is built around ranking system. I doubt they'll do manual saves.

They also complained about missing quicksaves in Hard Reset and it didn't happen. Ofc, it's a different dev team, but people also demanded it there badly. Didn't help in the end. Anyway, it's still a very playable game with great action and nice graphics for an indie shooter. In the end, I don't think ROTT will fail badly only because it relies on checkpoints.

However, if it is as Tom Chick says, they should maybe add an additional "Are you sure?" question when choosing "Restart Map" after dying, just to avoid accidental clicks (personally, I would never pick that option intentionally, anyway - too hardcore xD).

Serious Sam 3 has leader board system and they still use manual saving(and with auto-saving points that can be disable).

It's not excuse for lack of manual saving, at least there was a game used UE3 can manual saving.

Kind of what I was expecting, I'm just back from work now I have the game installed and ready to rock, but I'm a bit worn out and will sleep for an hour before I play it with a few beers then make my own mind up.

I have half a dozen people playing the game on my Steam friends list at the moment and my pre-load is taking forever to unpack

Some of said friends are crashing on the first level though :X

Although I was planning to preorder the game, I chose not to do so and instead will wait until the rest of you chip in before making a purchase. From what little I have heard, this game is absolutely getting skewered.

Yes, you will be able to turn off the combo x2,x3,x4 messages and most on screen text. While most of our guys love it some of our old schoolers definitely want to turn it off. So, we're gonna let you!

Mr. Davey, if you're still reading here, where is this option? I don't see any way to toggle the onscreen points and combo messages.

Don't want to spam out the main thread until I get a proper playthrough.
Just a random moment I got:

Though I think I'd be giving too much credit if this place was deliberate.
Note: I find the game enjoying.
