Just About Everything Has Been Delayed

[The Green Sabre]

What about it is minor? Something so big for an online game which many people play takes a long time. It not easy at all, read what they said, they were close, then it went wrong, they'd fix one problem and find another. That's how games are, it's a lot harder to make something which can have so many different possibilities, especially if it's online. They have to release it on 5 formats, account for Microsoft and sonys approval, there's a patch too so that's more testing. The new vehicles, weapons, cutscenes and voice acting, it isn't just make things, then they work.

 

They don't have to delay them, they could've released them a while back, bugs and all, but didn't to make sure they're a good experience. I don't see how that's a bad thing, maybe I'm missing the point.

Delay after delay for nearly 18 months gets pretty old after a while. I'm a bit pissed because I feel that the Heists are what's holding back the SP DLC, which this game desperately needs.

Maybe because RG isnt that big how y'all think ?

they have 1k employees and they most likely work on other games as Red Dead 3 /Agent/ Bully 2/ Grand Theft Auto V for PC

Rockstar North has 360 employees and they work on Grand Theft Auto Online, Grand Theft Auto Online Heists and Grand Theft Auto V Singleplayer Expansion

Delays are better than semi-finished full price games, expensive updates or bad expansions

By the way all 8 Rockstar Games studios - Rockstar Toronto, Rockstar San Diego, Rockstar North and the others cooperate with their games

This means the studios cant fully concentrate on their "own things"

Rockstar G = Big games > they need many of their employees

Delay after delay for nearly 18 months gets pretty old after a while. I'm a bit pissed because I feel that the Heists are what's holding back the SP DLC, which this game desperately needs. I think anyone would be pissed off, it's a pretty good DLC from what we know, it's the biggest update yet and that's an exciting prospect. Even SP only fans get new vehicles, the hydra! I think the better the DLC the harder it is to wait, especially when you think you're getting it a lot earlier. They delay and it's sh*t, but it's good in a way, we get better stuff, not rushed DLC with a price tag.

 

The game does need SP DLC, but heists are developed by a different team than SP things. SP DLC will most likely be huge, that's why it's taking a while. Remember IV's DLC? Red dead's? They're all huge, V won't be any different. Hopefully we'll get an announcement this year.
