    Somebody said recently that Apple might want to publish it on Thursday for a strategic reason.

    So apparently it has just been rejected.

    From Twitter: app rejected, they will re-submit ASAP.

    i'd say there's still hope but very minor to get it before xmas

    I am glad they fixed the entangle and other issues w BGEE so for now I am playing this and it rocks (yes a year later but fuck it). It's a game I played in high school and waited a little more time for a playable update. Big freaking deal.

    everybody knows the students should not study for a exam just the day before. Because things happen.

    I'm amazed that with all the garbage apps on Apple they would reject a game for some minor issues... Is this typical, and have they just recently stated reviewing apps in depth?

    Also to the beamdog team, is there an update on the re-submittal?

    According to twitter.
    So, in a last minute Hail-Mary move we fixed the issue, resubmitted and begged for an expedited review. Just got message, we are in review

    Looks like BG2:EE passed review! The down-side is that the iTunes Connect site is down for the week so it may not be releasable. But at least it means a release as soon as the week is over.

    Yay! NSR, would you be able to guess-timate a day or does apple not return until next mon?

    Trent mentioned the 28th on Twitter.
  • greenfishgreenfish Member Posts: 84
    Appstore lifted the freeze hours ago....
    I dont use twitter, beamdog whats the reason for delay now?
  • nsrnsr Member Posts: 174
    My guess is because it's currently 7am in Edmonton. And I think after they press the button it may take apple some time to refresh the store

    Our offices are still closed for the holidays. We'll be back around the second week of January.
  • MonoCanallaMonoCanalla Member Posts: 291
    We should assume Apple by itself can't publish the game, they need you to do something from the office?

    And why Trent mentioned something about December 28? Another (more) trick to calm the riots?

    According to Trent's twitter "The main game is approved for sale, but the in-app purchases are still set in review."

    so... no iPad version until second week of January?

    I'm pretty sure you can read people's twitter feeds without logging on to twitter.

    Do we really need daily play by play every day it isn't released? We know it is with Apple. We know Apple was shut down over vacation. Are we going to be bothered if Apple doesn't release it first thing in the morning?

    Ah that's a bit early. Here's hoping it will be released soon.

    Thanks for the updates Dee. But if it passed the review then clearly Apple should release it within a few hours right?

    I don't get it either. If it passed the review, and apple clearly has the final build. Then it's up to apple now???

    Reading yes, responding no.

    "Do we really need daily play by play every day it isn't released?" Normally no. But the whole thing have been a bit of a mess since they uploaded the game to apple. I didn't expect a game that normally take 5 days to be dealayed by a whole month.

    Maybe it's not that obvious to you, but here's a few people in here wanting bg2 ee before summer. Hence why we post in this thread?

    We're not in the office so I wouldn't expect regular updates. If the game goes on sale before we get back then that's awesome, but I wouldn't expect it to happen when we're not available to help with any problems.

    Okay, still much obliged for the updates Dee.

    Have a continued nice xmas/new year

    Dee, does this mean tWe shouldn't expect the IPAD release until after the holidays?

    Thanks,
