Sweet.

I'm half expecting a few more delays but good to see they are still keeping everyone in the loop. The fact that they are saying "within 2.5 weeks" is certainly a good sign though.

2.5 weeks is kind of a strange estimate. I'm guessing there's a week of work and a week and a half of unexpected delays figured in there.

I saw that but was trying to be funny. My dry Scots sense of humor is wasted on you folks sometimes....

They modeled my computer room. Well, about twice the size, with tiled floor instead of the wood flooring, but the crooked bulletin board and cluttered shelves is a dead ringer for my computer room. The desk doesn't have enough clutter on it to be mine, though.

We use metres too. But of course we spell it as "metres". I can easily visualise metres but feet measurements gets me annoyed sometimes.

It's WL nostalgia I guess. WL1 had range but using space-bar in fights to view the map could be a bit confusing, so the distance of enemies was measured in 21", 15", 10" etc.

I know there are still a few countries using it around the world, but it seems some want to change that, anyway.

But still...:D
Hopefully there'll be a mod or a toggle option :P Not that this is a game breaker or anything.

Lol, it's just something that appears in the text-box, you can SEE how close the enemies are on the map, in the square grid.

I don't think you fully appreciate the seriousness of the situation, inXile really should of put it to an advisory vote. There will be a huge backlash from backers that pledged under the assumption the metric system would be used. There's a strong anti-imperial sentiment out there, a significant amount of backers will demand refunds and many potential customers will not buy and play the game under these circumstances.

I'm furious! I can take propaganda, be it feminist, homosexual, or govermental.. but imperial system is too much! Infamy! Infamy! Dey turk er geyms!


[edit]
On a bit more serious note, the imperial system is pretty simple guys, here's a rundown.

1 foot = 0.3048 meter

16 feet = 4.8768 meters

20 feet = 6.096 meters

33 feet = 10.0584 meters

61 feet = 18.5928 meters

96 feet = 29.2608 meters

but I do agree that a choice for this is needed ingame
