[The Elite]

That's a lot further out than I imagined.

 

[Curufinwe]

That is nearly a year, they announced this game way too early

and wasted a Colbert appearance.

Lol, wasted.

 

[canedaddy]

Lord, please let me live another 9-10 months.

[OrlanisWorks]

That's quite a ways, but thank the lawd now I can completely put it out of my mind until then.

 

[shira]

The concept is so massive I expect more delays.

 

[orava]

So which procedural space sandbox game is this and why is it better than the others?

Okay, that has got to be an intentional Blade Runner reference.

 

[Pegasus Actual]

Seems far enough away that it could easily slip. No need to throw a date out there IMO. "When it's done" is fine with me.

 

[NastyBook]

Damn, that's way out there. Still, at least we have a date now.

 

[Blanquito]

Cue "but when will it release?" posts

 

[chekhonte]

Sweet, I've been wanting another pure exploration game for a while. I hope NMS is can keep a sense of novelty and newness going for a few weeks.

 

[LiK]

for PS5

 

[RiverKwai]

That new trailer tho. Where did that voiceover come from?

 

[KingSnake]

That's an unexpectedly long time between a Colbert apparition and release.

I wonder when the PC release is going to be.

That's a hell lot of jaggies in there.

 

[E92 M3]

So far away. Makes me a sad little panda.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Wasn't NMS announced back in 2013? I'm hyped for it, but good lord.

 

[ThatStupidLion]

so...odds this gets delayed till fall 2016?

 

[Slayven]

Bethesda did it right, announce game at E3, available in same calendar year.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Can't complain honestly. The rest of this year is packed, early next year has some games, summer needed something. With that much time left they can polish and add other cool features.

 

[kaskade]

I thought it was going to be a little earlier than that, in the winter was my guess. As long as the game turns out good I don't mind.

 

[Choomp]

Man that's gonna be a busy summer

 

[Bsigg12]

Bethesda did it right, announce game at E3, available in same calendar year.

I still can't wrap my head around the fact we are 2 weeks away from a new Fallout that was announced just a few months ago.

 

[Veritigo_X]

Aw, damn I was hoping it would be sooner. It'll make a good summer game though.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Bethesda did it right, announce game at E3, available in same calendar year.

I generally agree, but they were a small studio and probably wanted the lead time to build awareness; they didn't expect it to take off. And it's clearly taken longer than they expected to finish; last year they were hopeful to ship it this year, not deep into 2016.

 

[Jinfash]

Glad it finally has a date. I wonder if they'll be able to sustain my attention and interest until then. The game was definitely revealed a little too early.

 

[GrizzleBoy]

I aLlmost dont even care anymore.

Which is good. Hype is a bad thing.

 

[Tigress]

so...odds this gets delayed till fall 2016?

I'd say pretty good honestly. I mean the guy was predicting 2015 last year and never even came out and said it was delayed til now (when it was already painfully obvious. I've kinda been miffed he hasn't outright said it and now he at least finally did but fucking A, that's like waiting to say it until everyone already knew it anyways!).

 

[RPGCrazied]

Wow, they announced this way early. Why?

Anyway, it does look like a cool game, I just hope its not a $60 title.

 

[Give War A Chance]

Perfect timing. Always looking for something to play over the summer. Will actually be able to sink a lot of time into it, as the summer is currently constructed.

 

[TheMan]

Was hoping against hope we'd see this by Christmas, but I guess it's better if they polish and refine until it's truly ready

 

[Dommel]

That's so far away, i was really hoping for 2015

 

[Spirited]

That's an unexpectedly long time between a Colbert apparition and release.

I wonder when the PC release is going to be.



That's a hell lot of jaggies in there.

I remember Sean Murray saying it would be a simultaneous release on both platforms.

 

[CHC]

They announced this way too early. I'm almost sure we're going to see a delay which pushes it into fall of 2016. It just feels like they threw a date out there to give some rough idea.

 

[Give War A Chance]

People really think they were going to release this game like 4 weeks from now with no marketing? Lmao. Halo 5 has really made some people lose their grip on reality.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Wow, they announced this way early. Why?

Anyway, it does look like a cool game, I just hope its not a $60 title.

they thought they could get it done earlier but the game was so ambitious, and probably got even more ambitious?

 

[reminder]

Good, still busy with Witcher 3 and soon Fallout 4. June is great.

 

[Slayven]

I generally agree, but they were a small studio and probably wanted the lead time to build awareness; they didn't expect it to take off. And it's clearly taken longer than they expected to finish; last year they were hopeful to ship it this year, not deep into 2016.

Yeah they are a small studio, and setbacks happens. But they had to known this a while go. I mean he was just on Colbert, you don't go on Colbert to shill unless your stuff is out or about to drop.

I am just being irrationally mad at the marketing. Why show this game every five minutes when no one can play for year? Just feels handled so poorly.


IGN had a whole month of coverage.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Shiiiit. That's a good ways away still. But, whatever. Nice to finally have a release.

 

[Klart]

Really think this will be a PSVR launch title now. Excited!

True.

 

[EGM1966]

Good timeframe I think. There's too much going on late this year and early next year for it to have a chance to really stand out.

That said that's a long time to wait so that's a bummer on a personal level.

 

[CraigerGamer]

Plug me in Hello Games. I'm ready.

 

[Uno Venova]

Time frames like that just make it easier to delay vs a solid date.

 

[-Horizon-]

Not complaining. Got too many other games to play in the meantime.

 

[Tatsumi Oga]

So they have it as an exclusive now?

 

[Lashley]

No surprise.

Wouldn't be shocked if it was delayed further in all honesty,

 

[backflip10019]

So it's finally landing two years after they first showed the demo at E3? Really gave it too much time to lose momentum IMO.

 

[Felix Lighter]

I remember Sean Murray saying it would be a simultaneous release on both platforms.

I believe he said that he wants them to release as close to each other as possible. I got the impression of maybe weeks difference but not months. A simultaneous launch would be great though.

 

[brickarts295]

So they have it as an exclusive now?

Looks like it. It had Console Exclusive logo at the beginning. So no NMS for Xbox peps.

Man Sony's got 2016 for Q1/Q2 on the lock down.
Jan: The Witness
Feb: SFV
Mar: Uncharted 4

[metsallica]

New trailer made it seem like an actual video game for once. Finally some excitement poking through the math.
