There are different dates all over the place, if there is a delay why on earth has 505 games not told us yet or some of the retailers. p.s Guess I will do what most people on here will do on Friday if there is no news, just go have a look and hope, if nothing well the comments on here on Friday will be more than bad.

It's more than clear at this point that 21st will see a PC only release. It's not one retailer but a whole bunch of them who have pushed back the release date for the console version.

In my option nothing is 100% clear, we will all have to go look on the 21st of june.

No offence mate; but I've not given ?30 of my money to someone to hope that they release their product on time - I did it with the expectation that they would! For some people; ?30 (or whatever its selling for in your nation) is a lot of money; and to not announce a change in release dates less than a week before release is highly questionable. I've never had to "hope" for the release of a game on-time; why should I start now!

This is the saddest part. If you can't make the release date then don't take money from customers via pre-orders, and in case something goes wrong at the very least share the information with the customers who have paid money for the product in good faith. If the game doesn't come out on June 21st on all platforms, it would be akin to cheating their paying customers.

 

[IceAgeComing]

That's the thing - no person wants to feel like they've been cheated, even if it doesn't cost them. Its not like I've lost any money from this; but Zavvi don't take money from my account until a game is dispatched; and I've got ?32.99 that I could spend on other things sitting in my bank account in a hope that this game releases. I only did that because I was sure that the game was going to be good and that I'd want it. I'm perfectly OK with a delay; if it was actually announced at decent time and with good reason. If they release a PC version next week and its a buggy mess (which if the other versions are delayed, is probably likely...), then that's as much of a dis-service to their customers as the current situation for console buyers is...

Well releasing the PC one first gives you time to cancel your pre-orders and get a refund if it's crap.

Not yet available on Flipkart either.

^^ This is worrying. Usually price, tentative release date etc of pre-order items on FlipKart are shown a month or half-a-month earlier from actual release date.

Im only going to believe that the game is delayed until i hear it from 505 games! Right now its still the 21st of June for me! People seem to be getting a bit too paranoid about these rumors of delays

Well said mate, we will all find out very soon.

 

[Gurjot95]

Release only PC version on 21st June with a very low price and full of bugs so people who have pre ordered console version will shift their order to PC version and get the game on time. Then release the patch to fix bugs immediately because it doesn't require any platform approvals on PC and after all is done, release seperate finished game for consoles.

Makes sense to me.

All this inspite of chief being here with us. This is disappointing if it does not hit stores on 21st.
