Don't think we'll be limited to just the more realistic or at least rockstar realistic western stuff for online to milk the $, they'll likely do more undead nightmare and more besides.

October now instead of Spring. Damn...

J Mysterio · 01-02-2018 5:17pm

I want them to take the time to ensure this is as good as it can be. RDR is one of my favourite games ever, so this has a lot to live up to.

GavRedKing · 01-02-2018 5:18pm

Rockstar and delays usually go hand in hand.

Wouldnt rule out another one donw the line.

Also, I'd prefer a near perfect game thats delayed, than a bug ridden mess thats rushed out.

Given how revered RDR was, people will get over the dealy as long as its good.

01-02-2018 5:31pm

As said fully expected a delay.

MilesMorales1 · 01-02-2018 5:38pm

Being so shocked my monocle falls out.

EagererBeaver · 01-02-2018 5:42pm

So Spring 2019 then?

Lukker- · 01-02-2018 6:11pm

I would expect that to be the last delay. It's the perfect pre xmas time, you don't wanna be shipping any later than November.

Someone knows their Old West history at R* at least.

26 Oct 1881 was the gunfight at the OK Corral

If other studios delayed as much as Rockstar they would actually deliver games that work

Ausgezeichnet.

ERG89 · 01-02-2018 11:21pm

Those screenshots look insane. Tbf to Rockstar when you see what they did with GTA V on the 360 I'm sure it will look good...maybe not that good

J. Marston · 01-02-2018 11:24pm

Hope Liar's Dice returns.

I cannot wait for this game. It actually suits me better having a Autumn/Winter release as I wouldn't play as often during the summer.

Kiith · 02-02-2018 10:05am

Still no word on a pc release (which we almost certainly won't get now, at least for a long time)

I'm guessing 6 months. Similar to the PS4/XBOX One release schedule. The game new consoles are very similar to PC coding wise, so porting won't be an issue.

Rockstar made an insane amount of money from micro transactions, and PC was a big part of that, no chance they ignore that market. They haven't announced it yet, because they want people to double dip. If people know it's coming out in a few months they are less likely to buy it on console and they might just wait. Like I did with GTA V. Purchases first on X360 and then on PC.

GavRedKing · 02-02-2018 12:01pm

I forgot I've Far Cry 5 coming in March so that should kep me going until RDR2.

Crisis over.

Really looking forward to it. I've resisted the urge to watch any videos I want as many surprises as possible.

I'm in the same boat, I hate to sound selfish, but it suits me much more to play this towards the end of the year than March, April, May :pac:

Again, I couldn't agree more with the general sentiment in the thread, who cares if it's delayed if it means we're going to get a better, more polished game for it?

That's why I believe Rockstar have earned the respect and loyalty of a massive segment of the gaming community, they're not interested in releasing an unfinished, half-baked, buggy or unpolished mess just for the sake of cashing in on the inevitable billions they'll generate in revenue just a few months earlier.

They have standards and a relative degree of perfectionism ingrained in the way they develop and release games, and they always strive to meet those standards. If they are not met, then it's not good enough to be released into the wild. I feel that just demonstrates the respect they have for their customers, and if only more developers conducted themselves in a similar fashion, the video game industry wouldn't be the drama-centric shitshow we have to put up with nowadays.

It's a shame people don't get to play the game early, but anyone who bemoans or hurls abuse at R* because they didn't get what they want when they wanted it seriously need to check themselves and lose that unfounded sense of entitlement.

marcbrophy · 02-02-2018 4:03pm

Nobody talks about it, but I'm still worried about the game.
It's the first game release from R*, without Leslie Benzies' involvement.

And with that other cnut Zelnick in charge of Take2, this game could be a pay-to-win extravaganza

I couldn't I've a f*ck about the MP tbh.

The MP in the RDR was absolutely brilliant.

What I loved about it was that RDR MP really did reflect a players skill. There was a healthy learning curve and if you put the effort in, it showed.

Good maps and loads of fun game modes too.

Yeah it was decent, I expect something more along the lines of GTA V tbh. Any way they can push shark card equivalents, and an absolute grind for everything else.

marcbrophy · 05-02-2018 12:16am

I wasn't talking about MP at all!
That's another fcuking minefield that I want nothing to do with.
R* ruined GTA Online by making it inaccessible to casual players and rewarded cheating and glitching by increasing the cost of in game items exponentially.

SP games can still be ruined!

Have to agree. As much as i love GTA5 (as a single player) I feel let down by the lack of further single player campaign. Online doesn't appeal to me at all.

Can't wait for RDR2

Kiith · 05-02-2018 10:31am

Why make additional single player content when you can release skins and make an absolute fortune. I would expect RDR2 to be much worse than GTAV as well.

As long as the SP is good though, i don't really care.

GavRedKing · 05-02-2018 11:55am

The MP on GTA 5 at the start wasnt too bad, it gradually got worse to the point where I stopped all together.

Had many great nights on it with few of the users here.

GTA 5 must of made them a sh*t ton of cash from micro transactions and in this day and age, its nearly impossible to avoid so I expect it really, not that I like it.
