It seems to me that the 2 week window that DOOM 1.2 is supposed to
released in is just about up.  Does anyone know if 1.2 will be out in
the next day or two?  

Has anyone been beta testing 1.2?  

The only two postings I've seen on this topic have been:

a) Someone thought it was coming out this past Wednesday.
b) Someone heard on Compuserve it was coming out on the 24th.

Obviously choice a is wrong.

I spent a few LD dollars and talked with an ID customer service
rep (after a loooong wait I might ad) who told me that the modem
patch (1.2?) was expected to be out on the 30th. All who ordered
the game will be getting it.

I received email from Id saying that they *hoped* to have 1.2 out by the
end of the month.

I guess you should have asked, "What month?"  Don't forget, they *hoped*
to have it out at the end of December too.  I distinctly remember a
"Hank" message the week before New Years saying that the release was
imminent.

Things must not be going too well at id.  Apparently they can't get the
bugs out.  Either that or they're ignoring the MS-DOS version and
working on the Jaguar version.

Does anyone really know what's going on?  Seems like we're not getting
the real story.

It must be a conspiracy!  Where's Oliver Stone when we need him :)
