@SofaJockeyUK As launch delays go, 6 weeks is hardly a biggie...
Great to hear that they want the best release possible!
It's only 6 weeks... makes me wonder if this is even about bugs? I mean delays of up to a year are common now and 6 weeks is pretty short.
- @DYSPROssium 6 weeks is a lot in the gaming industry, often the last stage of development is what makes or breaks a game. One of the major complaints about fallen order was the bugs that plagued combat causing hits/blocks to not be registered, which is why Stig Asmussen was talking about considering player feedback. During EA's investor call, they reveal the request for an extension came directly from the respawn team as they did not feel the game would be ready for release on time. Overall I'm more disappointed in the poor release date estimate rather than the delay itself, the better the game is on launch the happier gamers will be.
