Maybe it may appear in a few weeks,i guess.

Arf, we will have to stay a few weeks on Genesis then. :(

Thanks for the answer !

Thing is, soon starts long vacation in Russia, 1-5 may - labor day, spring day, then Victory Day on 9-12 may, most sane people take 3 day off and get total 12 days without work.

So, add these 2 weeks to "few" - and you will get "maybe in June".

If you take into account Souslov's lexicon, where "second beta will start soon" mean "4 weeks later"...

Gremlion, could also be that if the Snowbird guys don't take a long vacation, they might work on the game and get some stuff squared away now that the huge rush to the release date is behind them. They need this game to be a success and there is a huge amount of expectations frontloaded toward this game, especially from the Russian fanbase, which is what made it possible to do a modern makeover of Genesis in the first place. So in that context it would make sense for them to skip the holidays and bust ass to get as much done as they possibly can. I would in their shoes.

Of course, not being part of the team, I can't speak for them and I don't know their working habits. I've done a ton of stuff with Illwinter related to Dominions 3 and Conquest of Elysium 3 and they always get the most stuff done during holidays. Then again, both people in that company have regular day jobs, which is a little different.

Sure, they CAN work during holidays and someone probably will. But they are people too, they have families, friends, and these holidays long and important enough to not expect full work time.
