Hi guys,

Breaking news the date of release for ARMA II may move a week back. Acordding to 505 stock for some of the leading retailers is delayed so the uk stock will follow.

I am getting confirmation later today so will keep you updated.

Cheers

If they change the release date i wont be able to send your stock no. I will however fight to get it sent out for next week as aparantly we are getting stock in on the 16th. If they do delay it europe will also be delayed yes.

Great news had it confirmed this morning, we will still be shipping our stock next week. we will be getting it mon/tues to ship on wed so u guys can have for release. Supermarkets and people like game/gamestation as far as we are aware are going to be very close to not releasing on time to maybe doing it days later.

Weird, would have thought that they'd post something up in BIS forums or in 505 games site about delay.

Cannings
12th June 2009, 10:24
It would be on the Bis forums because it would be out of developers hands, it was getting to the point they were worried as the stock will get to us 1 day before we ship, and as we know deliveries arnt always smooth.

Peoplw like supermarkets ect sort there own shipping so in essence 505 are getting it to them ok but because then after going to there main warehouse they have to organise shipping to 500+ stores takes time.

we however supply all the other stores through the uk "indepandants" aswell as somw onliners so they will have stock.

back on topic
aint there more game shops around youre place ??
