''Support''? We really wouldn't have much of a say...

 

 

But i would be extremely disheartened if they did delay again..

I bet many would be furious to even think about a plan like this biggrin.gif

If you wonder who those are, look no further biggrin.gif

I would seriously kick someone in the nuts if that were to happen rampage_ani.gif

Rockstar just can't afford another delay.

Would I support it, no. Would I be happy about it, no. Would I get on here and cry about it, no. Whatever they say at this point, I figure they know what they're doing. That is, until they prove me wrong. whatsthat.gif

I would feel very let down but i there would be nothing we could do so i guess i would accept it and wait it out until the Relaese. confused.gif

NO!

 

To fix bugs they can just release patches over Xbox Live/Play Station Network. Come on, we aren't using consoles without Hard Drives and Internet anymore man, THINK A LITTLE!

how can all you people say no? Wait till 08 for a substantially better game, sounds like a no brainer.

I wouldn't like nor support it. Rockstar have had long enough to sort out clipping issues/glitches and polishing up the graphics. I think they are almost done.

How do you know they are finished fixing bugs? IMO if they need anymore time, they can have it smile.gif. I can wait, its just a game you know. I think they are getting there, but they still need some work with their textures before the game will be completeley finished.

How do you know the textures haven't been smoothed out and are ready to go?

You can keep saying that forever! Personally im sick of waiting, it'll still be the best game of the year (probably).

Only if Microsoft announced they would take all the 360's back from everyone, install a new blu-ray drive, ship them back out, and had R* Re-work the game on Blu-Ray thus meaning superior massive quality.

 

And if there is any implication of a bias towards PS3 there I have to say I own a 360 Elite, and am kind of pissed Microsoft didn't wait for blu-ray to take hold, but I also have other reasons for my 360 purchase.

Either the delay was to fix bugs which can happen on such a massive under taking. Or it took this long for the ESRB to play it all and even attempt to beat it! Always been my thoughts. And yes a delay for bugs I would support wink.gif being a developer my self I know what it takes!

Haha, right, because I think that that will actually happen. Read through the sarcasm and you might find that I really just meant that It won't happen. Sorry, I forgot that the majority of people on these forums are under 18...

the reason people put the "/sarcasm" into their posts is because sarcasm is in the way you say the words. since this is just text you have to say at the end that you are being sarcastic. how else do you think someone would know your being sarcastic?

Not at all. Like someone above said, they can release a patch. Any delay now is a pure piss take; they've had long enough and they've got more than enough man power.

If it means fixing bugs, framerate, a.i, tweaking and all that stuff, yes im all for it. I would much rather play a completed game than a rushed game. But in this case, it shouldnt be rushed, i mean theyve had since San Andreas, thats almost 4 years. If its delayed again, fans expectations will rise even higher and would expect the perfect game. Personally i would hate a delay, but if it means improving the game, yes, in saying that, If its delayed, then i hope they make up for it in a BIG way.

I WOULD!

 

But only because I don't have the money to buy both a ps3 and a new gta game at the moment. If they decided to delay til Oct. 8th, then that'd be just fine with me.

would i be upset? yea. would i mind it if it would make the game way better? yea. as long as they at least gave us a release date. i mean wtf, im exited that the game might come out in a month, or they could be gay and it could take 3 months. this timeframe Feb-April sh*t is gay. As long as they gave us a release date with a delay, i guess i wouldnt mind

I agree with what dragonrock said. Releasing it within February & April as planned, and then as time goes on, if any major bugs are encountered, just fix the problem and make a free downloadable patch for it on Xbox Live & the Playstation Network. It would be basically the same as ramping the game up from "v1.0" to a "v1.1" and so on, like with GTA: SA and the Hot Coffee incident (which has now reached a v3.00 on PC! Sheesh! mercie_blink.gif ). But if a delay to October 2008 was entirely necessary, I guess I would say, "go for it." My reason is because I'm thinking if the problems would be unfixable at a later date, and/or ultimately hindering to the gameplay experience as a whole -- or better yet -- if it's going to be a permanent mistake/flaw in the game's code that just simply can't be fixed in a patch...I say keep it in the oven. But only if there's no way of fixing it by a patch. Delay only when necessary, and only as a last resort. R* has kept with this so far from last year. It was necessary. Maybe only for one system, but they signed a contract with Sony for a simultaneous release, so in that respect it was necessary. But hey, at least both systems will be getting more polish time in the end. biggrin.gif

I would. Anyone else?

 

Maybe its not a good suggestion? I bet many would be furious to even think about a plan like this biggrin.gif

 

Or atleast to July 2008. They would have plenty of time to make the game top-notch.

 

 

Its just a thought. It probably won't happen. Dont worry biggrin.gifbiggrin.gif

 

 

Im guessing Rockstars plan is

 

mid 08 : GTA IV

holliday 08 : Episodic content 1

09 : Episodic content 2

spring 09 : GTA IV PC

he must be working for rockstar, and dropping us a hint that the game is going to be delayed again. cryani.gif

 

lol biggrin.gif
