RO2 Release Date delayed 2 weeks to 13 Sep 2011
- Thread starter [TW]Wilsonam
- Start date
TWI, you must understand where we are coming from.
Just a couple days ago you released pre orders for the game. Now with less then a month left into the game you push it back even after you start exclusive pre-orders.
You(TWI) have not told us about any hick ups that you guys were experiencing. for all we knew the game development and testing was going fine. It's not an unethical business practice but one to deserve flak over.

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
This will bite Tripwire in the behind if the game still has issues upon release...

Wouldn't that mean that the August 30th release would "bite them in the behind" even worse?

Im okay with a delay I guess. But lets start some of that PR blitz you guys mentioned.
I want some video to tide me over this extra wait time.

I prefer the date. First week of September will be so crazy for me and all i'll want to do is play.
I love this much more!

Well I just got gifted a copy of Fallout 3 GOTY on Steam so I would stop screaming noooooooooooooooooo! at everyone who joined my Mumble server. So there's a silver lining for me

Very smart decision. Reviewers review the game that comes OUT OF THE BOX, and those reviews CANNOT be revised to account for later improvements. So having everything spotless and ready to rock day 1 is critical.

A lot of the player base and reviewers will judge the game based on its release. Rarely will you ever see those players or reviewers come back to the game to judge it again. It's better to just delay it than release a broken build.

You can refund if you want to. Just send a Steam ticket ask for refund. While you are whining and throwing baseless criticism I'll be playing the beta. Those who have patience will be rewarded.

Yep. I plan on getting my refund. Not that I am not getting Red Orchestra. More so for the fact of preordering it too get into the beta and having the release forthcoming.
I will be out of town for two weeks when the game is released (the revised release), so that does me zero good. I am a bit disappointed it is on sale for preorder and than suddenly changed in relative short notice.

I understand delaying the game to release it better and more polished(and i totally agree with this(i mean, i've been waiting for diablo 3 for a very long time...)), but why not, at least, release the beta for those who bought the deluxe edition?
