Still end of summer for release? Are you holding off releasing the Mac version until the iOS version is ready?

Hey guys! I come from the Battle Academy side of the forums and I began learning about Commader the Great War. I'm a Great War Histroy Buff and can't wait for the release on Mac and iOS! Quick question will Mac and iOS be released on the same date?

Making good progress with Commander porting to iOS, going faster than expected, so we have decided to start closed Beta for Mac and iOS at the same time, within 2 months, maybe sooner.

So people who have applied for closed CTGW Mac Beta testing, just hold your horses, Mac is basically done, but we go for parallel testing on both Mac and IPad soon.

We estimate that we need around 6 weeks more of pure code porting to finish the iPad port and 2 weeks for the Mac... plan is to go into parallel Beta pretty soon after that, depending on stability a 6 weeks of technical testing. Than we rebuild and update the Windows version and release all platforms and PC update in one go... have all out well before X-mas.

If of course we don`t run into big technical issues... and if we do, the game will be lost as I will have shot and hanged the whole Technical Division. ;-)

There is still some technical tweaking to do guys, we need at least a few more weeks. But definitely good progress.

We also started porting to Android BTW...

Will the game work with IOS7 and all versions of the Ipad like the older versions like the 2 and 3?

Is Svetozar Boroević von Bojna an Austro-Hungarian leader in the game?
