RO2 Release Date delayed 2 weeks to 13 Sep 2011

13 DAYS IS PEANUTS!!! Do you'r thing TWI and make sure bugless and well polished game on release.

dont forget guys TWI stands behind their product,what would new comers to RO2 think of a true PC game being all laggy,glitchy,problematic????? Not a first good impression.

Make it right TWI and dont forget to at least give people who preordered the Deluxe editioin at least a week of playing beta,also they can help you to fix some more bugs / profit.

Gotta say it's kinda hard to believe they didn't know they were going to delay before they put the pre-order email up. If its only 2 weeks who cares, but if it keeps dragging out a lot more people are gonna feel owned.

Deus Ex was delayed for a couple of months, and based on the leaked beta it was for the best.

Does a video game being released two weeks later make that much of difference, do you not have more improtant things to do?

Indie companies dont have the luxury of ****ing up, they get one chance to make it or break. Hell not just in the video game industry, any industry, if you're a small company you better damn well prove your value or you'll be out of business soon enough.

We have to announce that the release date for Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad is shifting back two weeks to September 13, 2011. While we understand the fans are clamoring to get their hands on the game, we felt we needed the extra two weeks to get it right and add the extra polish the game (and the players) deserve.

To answer a few questions/comments (and so it doesn't get lost in the forums): And that was raising as many questions as it answered, so I'll shut up now

Adding extra Polish to the game?! Sweet another army!!

For real tho, do what ya gotta do TW.

 

[punchdrunk]

[Uurastaja]

September rules. Birthday, RO2 and pay raise. :IS2:

I hope you Finnish the game soon.

Beta yesterday or people will Spanish you, TWI. And the raegstorm will be eternal.

Time to whip out a bottle of Vodka and cure our sorrows the old fashioned way...

 

[locogringojc]

ooooh...an excuse to get drunk

 

[Dogfacboy]

I still can't believe I'm gonna see RO2 before christmas <3

 

[SCandChives]

Damn.
Oh well, all inthe interests of a better game. And to everyone who's raging over this; just CTFD, it's only two weeks and it will mean a better porduct for all.

 

[Zips]

Two extra weeks to add in med kits for the G4TV review crew!

 

[Dcode]

Most of you will probably be playing this before the 30th anyway.

The big firms dont care and give you day one patches but they also dont get their games fixed.
I dont think black ops is fixed yet or ever will be so its great that tripwire takes time to polish their game.

I am glad they at least say why it is delayed. It may not be the most effective PR, but it is honesty towards the customer.

 

[ButchCassidy]

A brave Decision and one I applaud..Give the fans what they deserve and take the extra time to do it..Well done TWI

I hope its conna be perfect after this delayed....
Anyway its better to be late than full of bugs.

 

[DietOrange]

Can we have new screens or video to compensate perhaps? :IS2:

Like some others, I'd rather TWI take the time to release a more polished and bug free game than prematurely unveil it to the world. Remember they are going up against some large companies and getting better reviews will do the company and the game much more good than releasing it before its ready. Imagine then everyone saying/complaining about bugs and saying that they just should have stuck with EA or ActiarchIWvision.

I'm glad there are at least a few others out there who recognize this. Its one thing to be bummed the game won't be out on the 30th, another to rant and throw tantrums about intentionally being deceived and being screwed over.

Good decision TW. I don't understand why people want a buggy game with a lot of patches inmediately after release date like others companies have done. it's a good compromise with ro fans.

Two weeks... it's not time. I think people prefer a good game. Take all the time you need.
