I don't know if anyone has seen this. Maybe this is when we will figure out the release date. Hopefully we will know it sooner than that though.

"Join Creative Director Dan Pinchbeck as he presents a talk about their latest projects, followed by a panel on indie games development featuring The Chinese Room’s lead designer Andrew Crawshaw and lead programmer Stuart Yarham."

I don't think that we will get the release date there, because thechineseroom said already, that's up to frictional.
But I'm optimistic and my guess is, that we will get the date before the 3. September... xD

Long time lurker, had to sign up to clarify this as it is quite a big deal for me.

Hearing the dialog at the end of the Halloween Trailer, I thought Mandus would be played by the amazing voice of Dear Esther (Nigel Carrington). Unless the conversation was through letters, and not actually in person, each reading out loud the letters they received (which is highly unlikely considering the intonation), it doesn't really make any sense.

Also, feel free to follow me.
Might give you guys my SoundCloud page as well actually!

So probably, next week, in addition to the lyrics, we could have a release date. Also, the OST just came back from mastering... I think that all is ready!

Hey man, welcome to the forum.

Unfortunately Nigel Carrington isn't in A Machine For Pigs. The voices you hear in the trailer are Toby Longworth speaking to Mark Roper.

Me too! I guess we will have to wait, probably better that way anyway.

much delay already I has me on the verge of an anxiety attack. What is it how much you improve the game? Why FG can't give us a release date? people will get bored waiting so long. almost a year since the first delay (October 2012) Sad

A new trailer would be great

I guess they go straight to release no demo they have enough confidence in it I guess.

If I'm interpreting FG's words correctly the absolute latest we have to wait (assuming all goes according to plan) is early September. Hopefully it won't take quite as long as that, but that's the current release window.

A trailer takes a lot of time and resources, and frankly I couldn't care less about another trailer at this late stage if it means delaying the game for even one more day than would otherwise be necessary. They're in the final stretch now, from their most recent update it's clear that the game is largely done and it's just a matter of porting it, translating it and sorting out distribution. It's so close I can almost smell the freshly-shorn crackling...
