Crysis may not be released in 2007

[Ryland]

The delay somewhat works in my favor because Crysis is my primary reason for upgrading from my 7800GT so the longer it is delayed the lower prices drop and/or the 8900's may be out.

I am getting sick of this trend of hyping a video game and releasing new footage every month for two years.

Don't forget new screenshots every week. :|

Hes right though. A game that is rushed out the door, and needs patches a plenty before it good, we complain about. A game that is delayed to make it better, we complain about. Im not saying you're complaining, but thats how it goes.

This is the standard argument that has come up on anandtech since aroun 99 or 2000, and you guys never seem to hear the standard response (which is probably why you keep using this lame-ass argument over and over again) so I will post the standard response one last time.

PLEASE REMEMBER IT.


What is the excuse for coming out with a ***** game way too late?

Not at all. I'm not going to whine about a game's release date when I have a life that requires tending to.

I have far greater ambitions than to play a hyped up game. For me, computers games are:

1. A diversion.
2. A business ambition.

I cannot devote a large emotional part to WAITING. You know what happens to those who wait? They get passed up.

I could say they are a way of life, but only in so much as studying and knowing what makes them fun for a large demographic.

I enjoy playing games alot, but it must take a backseat to work because that is what puts food in my belly and a roof over my head. And I'm almost always working. When I'm not at my paying job, I'm working on my first game title.

I have a lot to do besides waiting on someone else's game. That too spectator like, like...waiting.


You're going to buy the game regardless of the release date. You'll either like or you'll hate or you'll be meh. It doesn't matter at this point. They have your money already. I can tell just by your whining about its release date being pushed back.

I like the way Bruce Lee stated it:

The way to immortality is having a life worth living.

I'm always interested in a person's life philosophy, it was interesting to read yours. I'm sure you're glad this thread gave you a chance to share it.

You want it ready, you get it 1-2 years later than projected.

If this is a guaranteed condition, than the solution is simply for the developers to say that the game they announced in 2005 will be out in 2008-2009.


On an aside, I'm a big fan of Crytek and I appreciate their dedication to PC gaming, but no one is forcing game developers to engage in this promise-delay, show feature that they know won't actually be present in the final game (Oblivion, HL2, etcetera), promise-delay.

As long as its a great game, and doesn't have major bug issues, I can wait indefinitely.
