From Ngmocos twitter Neil: bleh! ok, so R2 still not live! v.sorry for radio silence - working super hard to get it live asap - it's imminent...again apologies!
Can't guarantee that the game will be live in the next 4 minutes Can guarantee you that the game is great, and that it'll be in your hands soon... Sorry if we kept you waiting with not enough communication, it has been a minute by minute thing for us too. --- Neil.
I wouldn't call them liars anyway. They believed, as we all did, that it would be released on Canada Day. So they hit a snag. Oh well.
So is it safe to assume it was a "hoped" release date instead of the other scheduled dates? Or did something transpire between Mjmoco's announcement here and now.
