Talon724 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Rockstar really RISKS their name. They have a concrete release date. If this will get cancelled, they're screwed. Even fruthermore, they said they POLISH the game. But when we find bugs and glitches like in GTA 4 it's also bullsh*t they said. They risk a lot.

Raavi Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 No they don't risk that. Bugs/Glitches are unavoidable. Even if the game gets delayed again people will accept it all be it not immediately a day after the delay-announcement people will accept it. Hell they can't do anything else. – overeducated wonk who fetishises compromise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meson1 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 If this will get cancelled, they're screwed They will not cancel the game. I don't understand why people think they would. They have far too much money (an estimated $100m based on what they spent to develop IV) invested in GTA:V to pull out now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United_Stealth Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 They won't delay it this time, or it must be a real f*cked up game. But if there are some bugs they will fix it in a day 1 patch. (Which will be there nonetheless) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaggySnake Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 What a load of sh*t. Rockstar could delay it again and people will still buy it. They know this, they know they can get away with it. However, I think it should be released in September even if it's not finished. No more "polishing" bullsh*t. Release it and patch it. They've had a good 5 years now.

JoeM Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Rockstar always delay there games, never hurt them in the past - they have being doing this for 15 years now & are one of the biggest names in the business. But then, Im expecting the release date to slip again lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why, but I have a gut feeling that they will. They won't. September is the last month of their fiscal calendar, they've postponed the game until then so they can have all the time possible to fix bugs and glitches. Otherwise they could've delayed it to June just to announce another delay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you don't get the OP's message: he talks about monopolies. If the game will get delayed again, I will still buy it. This is true. But it's a drag, also. It shouldn't be like that. He's right.

There are 3 airport glitches that I know of and I have probably forgotten some, flying under the map, glitching inside buildings, you learn these things battling d-bags in FM.

It's not going to be cancelled and while GTA IV has its bugs/glitches it's more polished than some most game of its vintage. GTA V will be played for years. Do you expect it to be 100% bug and glitch free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not their whore. It's not anything like a monopoly.. A monopoly is one party controlling an entire market.. Of course every company controls their own product and consumers have to wait until they are released.. Of course it should be like that, how else could it be? Do you even know what a 'whore' is? Perhaps you should look it up before throwing it around at people for no good reason. If he game is good enough people will still like it, even if it is released later than expected people will just have to get over it and all this dummy spitting and toy throwing will be forgotten. If you find their business practice is unacceptable to you, you can choose not to buy their game, and buy anyone of the multitude of other games that are released.. It's nothing like a monopoly at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic_Al Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I don't think it will get delayed again. I think the game is probably close enough to done that they could have released it this spring, but they didn't want to release this huge game with any glitches or roughness they'd regret if only they'd spent a few more months. Considering the delay is over a summer, and they wouldn't want to release a game in the middle of summer anyway, it's possible the developers only needed/wanted 1-2 more months and they got 4 just so it would land in fall. If they use the time wisely and don't try to change too much, just polish, there's no way they'll delay again. Note too that Rockstar Newswire mods are constantly reaffirming the release date in comments when people ask about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONOPOLIES set the market price. but MONOPOLIES are equal to dictators. It should not be like that. If you like it, cool. I'm not their whore. That's not really a monopoly. Anybody can compete with R*, but most just don't have the vision/talent. More developers should learn from R*/TTWO. They push their games back to make them better. It's not about being "their whore". I just buy games when developers release them. No point in getting too upset because they choose to release later than they originally intended. And bugs and glitches are just the nature of the industry at it's current state. The technology is better, but the type of games being developed today have much more going on than they did in the past. Look how RDR was when it first released. Now when I play it I almost never encounter a bug/glitch. That's one of the great things about the industry now. We may get bugs/glitches in the beginning, but at least there's a way for developers to fix them. They sometimes need millions of players to become the game testers, because that's how you find out about the more obscure problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
