Hi !
I tried to make my backup image for Unreal Tournament DVD edition, but it doesn't work... Securom does not recognize it as the original :no:

Will there be a choice for choosing a protection like on CD's ?

Let's try a softer answer.

It is Alcohol policy to not release dates of new editions, enhancements, or versions. It would place an expectation to have it there on time and would generate more problems if the push was made and created more issues or was delayed for any amount of time. So no release dates are given, no time schedules are released, and will be met with the same type of response when asked.

In simple, all future releases will be done in the future, around the time the Dev Team is happy with the product, and they feel it is the right time to do so.

Yup, as shawn_nee said, its nigh on impossible to give a release date seeming so many variables can interrupt and delay that release due to developmental problems.

This is avoids many unhappy people due to the coming and passing of release dates. Its far better to get a product when its ready than before.
