The gap between March and September, what happened

So most of us know that the first confirmed date for GTA V was somewhere in 2013 March, but they delayed it to September, what do you think was the reason of that? Did they develop even more? Did they just fix up bugs? Or just making the fans burn.

 

Did they develop something in the gap between MARCH & SEPTEMBER.

 

 

#Q2

 

Is this game is currently fully developed? If it is, then why don't they release it now... suicidal.gif

Most likely polishing the game to ensure it runs smooth, Testing, Adding last few bits to the game.

 

Hard to say really, but you can be assured they didn't overhaul the entire game or add anything major.

I always had "May 2013" release date in my head. I didn't expect such a long delay. Anyhow it was to add new things, polish the game and so on. bored.gif

My cousin owns rockstar and he said they delayed it to perfect yoga for the masses. Shifty41s_beerhatsmilie2.gif

I dunno what they did but yeah, I would imagine with 26 days till release the game is finished. Why can't they release it now? Well it takes time to print, market, ship, organise the release, etc.

It's only pushed back to September 17th for bug testing, glitches and from what I know, adjusting the BAWSAQ stocks icon14.gif

The features such as property purchasing, which was NOT originally planned on, was added after so many questions about why it wasn't included. Also the game still needed some polishing.

Zee was banned the same time the game was delayed.

 

It looks like Dan had enough of trolling his fans directly, so he opted for indirectly by delaying the damn game at the last minute.

People got pissed that you couldn't buy property, so they added that in. Also I'd say they added a lot of content for GTA Online, since there's so many missions.

GTA Online happened, I think. Perhaps multiplayer first was like IV but it felt dull, so they had to rework the concept...

Probably felt they had the space to utilize and make GTA Online such a big step forward or something. Who knows. But either way i'm sure they had a very good reason. And at leasti t was only until September not like 2014.
