Fine by me. First game was fantastic. Let it cook for as long as it needs to.

Yeah it makes much more sense then. Spring is just packed with releases between all that's came out already and Horizon, Zelda, Mass Effect, Persona 5 etc. coming soon.

South Park would get lost behind those games and sell fewer copies st $60 than it likely will coming out in a less busy month after people are done with those games.

 

[Alpende]

Another delay... as long as it's put to good use I'm fine with it.

 

[Linkura]

I'm fine with it if they're using some of this time to add more content to the game. I want it to be fairly long with some replayability. I'll be disappointed if you could blow through everything in 10-15 hours like the last game. Which was a great game but it just left me wanting more.

I was fine with the length of the last game. There was plenty of optional content and they didn't have much in the way of filler. Everything was very high quality. I much prefer quality over quantity. Though I'll be honest, I rented it when it first came out and then purchased it when it became Greatest Hits.

 

[Bakkus]

That's not really smart, nor really funny.

 

[antibolo]

I would buy a Switch version. Probably won't bother otherwise.

Not that I expect it of course. Western third parties gotta ignore Nintendo hardware.

 

[Aces&Eights]

Bah. If it needs to cook, fine. Was really looking forward to this next month, though.

 

[IndustryX]

With Persona 5, Zelda and Horizon releasing within a month I'm ok with this

 

[Scrotum Phillips]

I just wish there was a way to play Stick of Truth on PS4 without having to preorder Fractured But Whole.

 

[The Big N]

Well, honestly its not a bad thing from a sales perspective given what games are coming out the next 2 months.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

fuck!

i suppose ill cancel the pre-order on the PSN when sony asks if i want to keep it or not and pre-order/buy other game for this year

 

[The Giant]

Gotta make sure the Switch version is ready for same day release as the other consoles, right?

 

[jayu26]

South Park: The Delayed but Coming

Should have spelled with "u" to drive home the point (pun).

 

[Lashley]

fucks sake

I know its better to delay it than rush it out, but have been excited for it for ages

 

[captainraincoat]

Glad they delayed....next couple of months are prettt stacked

 

[Enduin]

Not a great sign but a delayed game at least has the chance of becoming a better one and could always just be scheduling decision. Here's hoping for a Switch version.

 

[Pathfinder]

Not to worry, everyone.

It will be worth the wait.

Remember, we would rather have a game be delayed for more work and polish than have a rushed game that doesn't live up to expectations.

 

[Megatron]

Southpark: the fractured blue balls

 

[Linkura]

Not a great sign but a delayed game at least has the chance of becoming a better one and could always just be scheduling decision. Here's hoping for a Switch version.

Actually I would say it being delayed is a good sign in this situation. They constantly delayed Stick of Truth, and it was great.

 

[Muninn]

Haven't even got to the first one hardly. But in 4K with some SMAA that baby was sweet looking.

 

[Lakerchick4life]

Got mine pre ordered at best buy(Did it when they had the visa checkout promo) since they dont charge til the game actually ships I will just keep the pre order but am disappointed its not coming out anytime soon

 

[bubumiao]

I preordered from best buy since they had the visa checkout deal to save $25 off of $100.

Anyways, my credit card I used expires in February 2018 so if it doesn't come out by then am I gonna have a problem or you think I'll be able to get my payment changed to a different card by calling customer service or something?

 

[Falco_Lombardi]

As long as the game is good as the Stick of Truth, I am more than ok with the delay...

 

[bubumiao]

I just wish there was a way to play Stick of Truth on PS4 without having to preorder Fractured But Whole.

You get a downloadable version for ps4 if you preorder on PSN? I thought it would just give you a code for the ps3 version.

 

[Pachinko]

Probably needs more polish and there's a lot of big stuff coming out over the next few weeks. I always thought it was odd that it was even aiming for holiday 2016 in the first place actually.

 

[Mindlog]

Not to give them ideas or anything.
OK maybe to give them some idea.

Ubisoft wants service games.
South Park Studios cuts a large amount of ideas in order to make a game.

I would absolutely subscribe to episodes of Fractured But Whole. Just sayin'.

 

[DrunkShogun]

Will be a shame for my brother as South Park was his first rpg and he looked forward to this. Nothing to do but hope the delay means the game quality is high on release.

 

[Loomer]

Why is this game taking so long.

 

[bubumiao]

Will be a shame for my brother as South Park was his first rpg and he looked forward to this. Nothing to do but hope the delay means the game quality is high on release.

Get him to play Persona 5 in the meantime.

 

[Spieler Eins]

As already said, the next months are packed enough already. But then again, the other way it could have already been cheap by the time the summer drought comes.

 

[IsntChrisL]

I doubt it's happening but I'd support a Switch port. If not it'll be PS4 or PC. They can take their time to get it right.

 

[U2NUMB]

You are no longer her making fun of trump so get to it Matt and Trey... So happy I pre ordered this ages ago.

 

[Scrawnton]

Delayed to add a Trump story arc into the game.

 

[MrBS]

That RC Coon bundle I preordered from Amazon better still exist when this game eventually comes out.

 

[ScientificPizza]

Delayed to add a Trump story arc into the game.

Genuinely wouldn't be surprised

 

[Vinnk]

I'd love this on Switch because the content in this game is not what I want to show on the Family TV.

Also the art style means even if there is a massive downgrade in the graphics, it shouldn't effect things as much.

Edit: I hope this isn't considered port-begging. I'll buy for sure no matter where it goes.

 

[aristotle]

You get a downloadable version for ps4 if you preorder on PSN? I thought it would just give you a code for the ps3 version.

You do get a PS4 version to download immediately if you preorder on PSN.

 

[wachel]

This is definitely good news with Persona 5 coming out, no other room for turn-based RPG's!

 

[Lord of Castamere]

Please release while Ubisoft is still Ubisoft.

September is most likely right now, imo. Maybe early Oct. If not then Dec. Maybe they'll add in more DCEU jokes and launch it next to Justice League. That would be smart.

 

[graywolf323]

I wonder if PSN will refund preorders again with this new delay

 

[arcticice]

As long as the game is good, i don't mind. However, I hope it doesn't release in fall. A lot of games to play during that time

 

[gogojira]

Taking out all the Trump jokes probably.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

I see they're taking the advice from senpai Atlus on how to announce release dates and then delay titles

 

[teh_pwn]

If they don't finish before September, it's not coming out this year because Parker & Stone are doing all of the writing and voice acting, and they'll be busy with South Park's upcoming season Sept-Dec.

 

[VanCityGamer]

I have a feeling this one will be out in June.

Would make a lot of sense as the onslaught of games that have been coming out so far this year will have dried up until September by that time.

And I think they'll have it ready by then.

 

[Lord of Castamere]

If they don't finish before September, it's not coming out this year because Parker & Stone are doing all of the writing and voice acting, and they'll be busy with South Park's upcoming season Sept-Dec.

If the voice acting isn't finished by September, then it wouldn't matter anyway. They're not gonna make the game content complete, and polish/edit it in less than three months, South park or no.
