When can we expect BG2 to start?

How can I contribute to the effort? (I've got $50 for pre-order! Where do I send my check?)

    It already has started for art and writing. The programmers are still fixing BG:EE stuff, getting it onto Mac, Android, iOS 5.1 (and maybe Linux), and are finishing some features that will be used on both BG:EE and BG2:EE.

    @bidogchris Didn't Trent Oster confirm that the final draft for the Linux contract was ready and only pending signature?

    Trent confirmed that he signed the contract. There was no update on whether the other parties have signed. I expect that part takes time as there are probably paper documents that need to be mailed back and forth.

    Assuming you've allready bought BG:EE, you -have- contributed towards the second one too. I doubt full development will start just yet, seeing as BG:EE still isn't done. There's bugs to sort out, cut scenes to add, better multiplayer functionality's on the agenda and the release isn't fully done on all the platforms yet.

    A lot of the work for BGII:EE is allready outta the way though, seeing as the exact same engine will be used. My guess would be that full development starts in late January/February if patching and multiplayer is done by then.
