Notased on his criterias about not having new trailer or info about the game since forspokken had a few quite recently.Not that I think op is right but I do think it would be time to start marketing the game especially since Stalker let a big open window.
How much info did we get about Forza Horizon 5 before the trailer at e3 and it's release that November?
Why? The game is supposed to come out this summer, thats in about 6-8 months. So far we've had no actual gameplay, no new trailers, no nothing. Besides the E3 2021 announcement cgi trailer.
The only release date we have is Summer 2022.
Its also based on UE5 which looks to have still missing features and bugs.
I wouldn't be surprised if Starfield releases before Redfall.
I don't know about that, they haven't shown anything real to say it looks terrible. But I only make judgements on gameplay/mechanics.
Pretty much this.
Forza is an annual/bi-annual franchise with minimal differences between entries. It isn't necessary to show it as much as people know what to expect and their fanbases are already sold on it.
Graphically or because you don't like them?
Pretty sure its 2 different teams.
I get where you're coming from but racing games really don't need much marketing far in advance. People know what Forza and Gran Turismo are. The playerbases are pretty well established at this point. Brand new IPs need a lot of marketing lead time by comparison. Racing games are fairly simple. You know what you're doing. Driving cars really fast. Redfall needs time to convince people to look into it. We need to get some story beats. We need to see some gameplay hooks. We need some more information about as many details as they can give us. And this information can take months to filter through the larger community. It is not something you want to announce, say nothing about it for a year, and then tell people it's releasing in 3 or 4 months. Especially when so many eyes are on Starfield. It's not just Stalker 2 being delayed. Both Deathloop and Ghostwire were delayed well outside their initial windows or targets. Microsoft doesn't often announce something in the first half of the year. They usually wait until E3 or slightly before to start rolling things out. That history is probably another reason why people are looking at "Summer 2022" for Redfall and thinking, "Yeah. Probably not at this point"
No, I'm not talking about graphics. That's way down on the priority list.
The last Forza Motorsport was released literally 4 and a half years ago.PG released two Horizon games in between 2018 and 2021. This is a ground up reboot on next gen. All we have seen so far is an in-engine trailer that probably wasnt even realtime.
Is this a joke post?
He said before E3, in which we got no information. Also, we have zero gameplay of a lot of games projected this year BOTW/Starfield/FM8/Ragnarok. I mean at this point just wait and see.
Forza Horizon 4 came out in 2018. So it hardly annual or even bi-annual release. The point is no one knew what it looked like before the first trailer months before the finished game came out. There is no evidence that Redfall will be delayed and to make that determination simply because there hasn't been lots of gameplay trailers is a little silly. We have no idea what the current state of Redfall is right now. If it's a no show at e3 then perhaps it isn't coming this year.
Of course you got no information before E3, the game was not even officially announced then.
The Ragnarok reveal trailer was gameplay
Gow has not had a gameplay reveal to my knowledge. People thought it would release last year based on only the logo shown

This is the most absurd reasoning that people make about a game being delayed or having trouble. Many game companies mostly show off their game the most in the last several weeks before release. Anything earlier would be aligned with a big marketing event like E3 which technically happens before summer does.Why would they be releasing new gameplay and trailers 6-8 months out. So people can watch it and forget about it for months before the final marketing happens?
Ehh. New Motorsport is essentially a soft reboot of series so "minimal differences" will or won't apply there...
have you forgotten about Deathloop???
If Summer 2022 means september, it's plenty of time to get some kind of marketing rolling. Also, there is literally nobody saying that you can't start "hype machine" before E3. GameInformer coverage is enough to start something.
