Originally by: Malthros Zenobia I think we're all missing one small bit of information:
Originally by: MrShooter I just recived November's issue of pcgamer
Why the **** do you have a NOVEMBER issue of PC gamer? It's not even October yet FFS.
Because thats the way PC Magazines work....for some obscure reason they slap the dates on them 2 months in advance.
CCP probably booked an Ad in the "November" issue of PCG thinking that Kali will definately be done by then, only to find that in the world of PC Magazines November really means September.
It all started when one magazine moved its dates forward a month, and all the other PC Mag's had to outdo each other, as they couldnt be seen to be issuing a "July" magazine when a competitor had a "August" magazine on the shelves. (regardless of wether or not the content was exactly the same... )
...on the other hand using a banana might be a viable alternative.

Ok people, just clear things up. PC Gamer ran the ad to early, and we are therefore running DOS attacks on their servers now. You will learn more about Revelations after we decide what that is

Run a database search on customers from pc gamer and drop them deep into 0.0 in a pod. The experience will reveal all sorts of things to them... :)

So, the really important question....
What new colour scheme are you giving the interface as its new default colour?
Is it purple?

We would rather prefer if instead of running DOS attacks you could use the server bandwidth and power to run the game smoothly.

Originally by: Hllaxiu
Originally by: MrShooter It is the US edition of pcgamer, there is no mention of EVE online that I have seen in the magazine so far except for that ad.
They did cover the game when it came out. It got an entire 50% too! They later reviewed exodus and gave it a 80%, though it wasn't a full page review, but one of the half page minireviews they used to do. I dunno if they've talked about the game lately, as I unsubscribed a while ago, that rag has really gone down hill.
Yep. I remember when I first started reading PC Gamer back in '94. I also remember that Outpost got a whopping 94% (somewhere around there) rating before the game was released....only to find out the entire was bugt riddled from end to end. Not to mention back then a PC Gamer came in at a whopping 300 pages or thereabouts. Now? I think Enquirer is thicker....

I suppose if they release the november issue in september they can keep selling it for 2 1/2 months and have people believe it's the latest one... -----

It may seem ridiculous, but as a freelancer it's nice to get paid in the same month a mag is dated.
The gap shortens suddenly at the end of the year when the Xmas issue comes out (PCG**** and the far superior PCZone both publish 13 issues a year), so in December the gap between mag date and actual date is reduced to one month when the Jan issue hits the streets.... gradually this widens out again until we reach the Q3/Q4 silliness we have now.

As does Edge although the current issue is October & the November issue doesn't go on sale until the 28th of September (December issue will be out around 27 of October & Christmas issue is around 24th of November)
