No, I just remembered that there was some shit stirring about a video game featuring books lying on the floor.
That's weird to me, because aside from that hijab-wearing zombie everything else looked heavily Brazilian-inspired to me. Granted, I haven't watched many recent videos, but the Favela-style setting from the early videos even had the Orelhão.
(from one of the gameplay trailers)
Plus, different sections of the horizon look like a mishmash of Rio and São Paulo.

Yeah I've seen a bunch of footage and lived in Istanbul and this doesn't really look like Istanbul.
I also always thought they were going for a Favela aesthetic.
So you have no point, noted.

Yesterday in France, a few websites were reporting that Dying Light was going to be delayed again.
Playeronetv was the first one. They said the retailer Micromania (big vg retailer) would not take preorders anymore. I checked that on their website but it's not the case. Maybe only in stores, idk.
Then Gamergen followed without giving any source. But on their forums, someone allegedly reported this.
Today i think, Amazon.fr changed the release date to march 31 and Fnac.com to February 27.
A few hours ago, this was posted in the forums.
A friend of mine tweeted this to the game account 22 hours ago, and is still waiting for an answer.
So what do you think gaf?
Delay me again if old.
i'll just tell you straight up: NO. it's not delayed.
LBP makes a lot of sense for that actually. It's a pretty diverse/ multi-ethnic game. First game has levels based on areas around the world.
Thanks, updated OP.
Also they used a lot of licensed music which is where the lyrics were present.

One of the Polish portals says that they confirmed with their inside sources (game is made in Poland) that the game is in fact delayed due to censorship after recent attacks.

I've only been to Istanbul once but the city in this game doesn't remind me at all of it compared to Brazil.

I'd be fine if this gets pushed back a bit, January is pretty busy for me. Got REmake next week and then Grim Fandango at the end of the month.

Can people please do their research at least in regards to Australia. The game is rated there and one retailers hearsay doesn't necessarily equate to a proper delay especially without word from the publisher.
There have been times where EBGames have received stock of something late here and other retailers haven't. Perhaps this might be one of those instances. Anyone remember Mario Kart Wii in Australia? Got delayed at all retailers besides EBGames due to a freight error. This might be the same.

Like using that pic huh?=p
Eww, I would have zero interest in Dying Light if it looked like Dead Island reskinned. As it is, my interest is kept in check because of the developers, but it does look mostly better.
French Amazon lists March 31st as the release date: http://www.amazon.fr/s/ref=nb_sb_no...l=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=dying+light

march 31st is probably a placeholder, since it is the end of q1

I do.
Until yesterday they had january 29th, just like fnac. Makes you wonder what made them change for placeholders.

EB Australia is still listing it for a release on January 28th.
I'm just gonna assume it hasn't been delayed in Australia.

Polish site "Polygamia" claim that delay is true. They have confirmation from trusted source. They don't known new date.

For the most time, this site have reliable information. And Techland is polish dev.

Reviews are often not release code nowadays.

Thank you for your input.
Really? because I thought it looked pretty good, but doubt very much there is any delay. They have been sending out press copies etc.
