about the crew, how exactly was it delayed? it never had a release date so 2014 was obvious.


Ubisoft have confirmed that it was due to be fiscal 2013/14 and it will now be fiscal 2014/15

so it was April latest, its now April earliest.

all right. still doesn't change much. they didin't say a thing about a 2013 release so it was always a 2014 game for everyone.

Well...there goes my PS4 launch game.

Have to figure out what to get instead now.

wonder if this is going to hurt the ps4 launch alittle

Another thing that might have triggered the delay could have been the potential critical reception.

So close to GTA V, reviewers may have butchered this game. Hard.

So, one of the most hyped launch game in a plataform coming in november just got delayed around on the begining off october, by ubisoft, to next year first half... Where i areadly saw that before... oh!

Lets pray they don't come over us in mid march saying:"the game is ready, but we decided to make a port to iOS, WP and android devices that will take 6 months to get ready, but we want to make a launch in all plattaforms togheter. We are sorry, but ACIV was not profitable, not even close. Here, have some mothly demo free app."

Makes sense, why would they want to compete with their own IP?

Waiting until four weeks out from release... damn, that is cutting it close. It's October 15th and it was due on November 19th? lol. Geez, glad I didn't pre-order as one of my holiday games!

Usually, it seems like big holiday games get delayed in August and September, in order to give customers time to figure out what else to buy in the meantime.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.

Nintendo is extorting enough money from me with new Pokemon and Zelda. :P

Seriously though, I need to go back and review PS4 launch games.

very amusing reading comments at like ign.com

seriously it seems like 90% of people commenting thought this game was sony exclusive. They constantly talk about how this is good for xbox one, and sucks for sony, and other such comments.

Do they not realize this is multiplat. Not only is it coming out for ps4/xbox one, but also wii u, ps3 and 360. pc as well.

 

Also i'm amazed at how many people have this game as their only launch game they were getting.  Seriously your dropping $500 on a console to play a game you can play on a console you ALREADY own?
