Why would they need more funding? They've been fully funded for almost two years now, I believe.

It's not about needing "more funding." They were a month from launch. I'd happily pay to get "early access" to the title given this delay to play it sooner than the newer date, especially since... again... it was one month from launch.

I don't know for this specific case since I'm not "in the know" but I can tell you from experience that generally speaking the decision to actually delay the game is often taken long before it is announced publicly.

For example, in this case, I wouldn't be surprised that they decided to delay it back in july/august but waited until now to announce it.

It's not like you wake up one morning, a month from release, and realize that your game isn't ready to ship lol. You see those things coming when you are developping a game.

I realize that. But again: Weird how they announce a delay with like 2 weeks left from launch. Surely they could've announced that delay when they realized they were going to have to delay it.

Was looking forward to this

Yeah, come on guys, 48 hour early re-access.

All the beautiful shots/vids, and this was almost at my fingertips. I'm massively let down by this news. As a PC gamer, it was about to become my main racing game. Maybe they can get more licenses with this delay?

Not a surprise really, game still looks very rough around the edges. Hopefully they can get it all sorted by March.

Everyones justifying moving their titles to March 2015 due to big titles in November when March 2015 is now full of big titles

Half of the Spring 2015 titles are really fall 2015. Gotta keep that hype going.

So Wii U 2016?

Here is how I see it (just my opinion), I don't think they are working on the Wii U version at the moment until the other consoles and PC version are done. Then they will focus on the Wii U version and release it probably in the Summer of 2015. I personally don't believe that the Wii U version is taking them way longer to develop, just that they are leaving it be until they have time to get to it.

They waiting for GT7 and Forza 6 so then no one really buys their game.
