Reason for delay

Haha, wasn’t it “Making games it hard” ?? Classic…

i’m curious, dev stuff aside. when would you release brink this year? what would be the perfect timing slot for you?

(Wolfmeister) #23

What i think is irrelevant and off-topic.

Im just curious why they decided to delay the game for 6 Months out of the blue.

Maybe they want to use Steamworks on the PS3 that Valve just announced for Portal2 and decided to delay because of that? (Portal 2 also got delayed until 2011)

6Months make that 9+Months or maybe a year!

Rahdo’s post from the crossfire forum - thought it might help

"Yup, the delay is for more polish time. We could have made our Xmas date, but we wouldn’t have had enough time to work on balancing weapons/abilities/maps/damage/etc. etc. as much as we would have liked.

Bethesda is being really cool about giving us a few extra months so we can really get all the kinks out. and we’re really lucky to get the time. Sorry for delay but hopefully it’ll be worth it! :slight_smile: "

(Joe999) #26

no, it isn’t. seriously, where would you put it? i’m just curious, because i don’t see any timeframe that would be appropriate. even bethesda would be their own competition with fallout new vegas in october.

Locked bodytypes.

If that is true I’ll come over and kick you in the nuts :smiley: I didn’t want that for sure!

“Omagawd, this delay completely killed my hype I lost all interest die sd baaaaaaaw”

And it was said that SD community is in 20-25 years frame at large.
Seriously, wtf, go read a book.

Die SD? You’ve been reading too many books it seems and you’ve started to see **** between the lines. :). Try not to divert too much off topic with personal attacks.

What I would like to hear them say is: If they do happen to finish ironing out those kinks prior to Spring 2011, it gets released early…

If it is 100% perfect at January… RELEAAAAAAAAASE ITTTTTTT :smiley:

(tokamak) #32

A game is never 100% perfect.

(0xT1) #33

thanks, it does =]

(Ragoo) #34

If it was only for balancing I think I really like that delay :slight_smile:

(Wolfmeister) #35

Thanks, i mustave missed that one.

(Shishio) #36

I’m not saying anything, but six month of delay… 6 moth wasn’t it the time needed to add female skin in the game, and the reason, (along with the cost) why Splash didn’t wanted to put them in the game a first?

Who know, the heavy FPS loaded month to comes, have maybe given the chance to splash to see things differently… Or maybe their just taking their time for debuging…:stroggbanana:

(LyndonL) #37

A few of the reviews did mention that it wasn’t 100% tight, so perhaps it is in need of just a tiny bit of polish :slight_smile:

(otakustar) #38

they just have to wait till valve has finished steam for linux :stroggtapir:

Seems relevant to the topic, so I’m posting it…

If these last months are used for balancing, then there’s still a chance of a beta :smiley:
