I am amazed by the number of people who seem to be showing interest in the mod in many different communities as of late. First of all, I'd like to apologize for not being able to defuse the situation here at the forums regarding a holiday release date. Just like you guys the team has been out celebrating and doing lots of last minute shopping in the past week and I haven't had a chance to get on a computer until today.
We were hopeful in releasing HoM before christmas but we never announced it officially, I've always been mindful of keeping my word because I'm a gamer myself and I know how frustrating and dissapointing developers missing their release dates is. As such, the most I've ever said is along the lines of "soon" because no matter how sure I am of something, things have a tendency to complicate themselves at the last minute. You should know that the mod could be released in 2005 but it might not. The reasons for this are our own, there are still some things that need to be finished and getting the mod uploaded to all the file mirrors takes time... Because of that, you won't hear a release date from me until I know the files are all 100% uploaded and I have a good list of file mirrors ready for download.
With all that said, our core team is on vacation so don't expect much activity from us on the forums for the remainder of this month.
Here's your belated christmas present folks, consider this an IOU of sorts to tide you over until the real thing arrives
