Daniel_Shadow170 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) It begins while we get many announcements this time of year we also get many delays. http://gematsu.com/2016/06/yooka-laylee-delayed-q1-2017-e3-2016-trailer Edited June 6, 2016 by ShadowStrike002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaivRules Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Worth the wait. These guys have put out high quality games in their careers prior to this. Anyone who didn't expect this is probably 14 years old and new to the internet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlareXV Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Can't wait, the quip about Nuts and Bolts wasn't needed but everything else is perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel_Shadow170 Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 I knew a delay was coming but these companies need to not give timetables until it is 100% complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaivRules Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 You can't have a Kickstarter without a delivery date up front. Not giving a timetable would have eliminated using Kickstarter all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not giving a timetable would have eliminated using Kickstarter all together. Then you say a realistic year and don't give a month. Everyone knew it wasn't going to make the October date and I'm sure it won't make this Q1 ether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrickenBiged Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Not surprised. I just got the email too. Good. If they want to polish the game up even more, I am not going to complain. I'd paraphrase Miyamoto - "A delayed game is eventually good, a rushed game is bad forever". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LetsTurnJu-On Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Oh no. A game delayed? This is new, I'd go mental if this was the 1 millionth game to get delayed this year, but it's n... Oh wait ... *yawn* one of these days a Dev will announce a release date which is the actual date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knew it wasn't going to make the October date and I'm sure it won't make this Q1 ether. How sure are you? Bit of a rush to judgment, looks like. I think the frustration with day one patches is WAY louder on the internet than the frustration with delays. Game-fixing patching is lazy and people who have accepted them are irrational. This is one delay. When it ships in their new target date, you can go ahead and change your opinion on all delays going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't change my opinion on it at all you delay your game when it can easily be patched in is ridiculous this is how the new world of gaming works.

ThiophenSJ Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 So glad I backed this game on Kickstarter. The trailer feels so amazingly like Banjo and Kazooie - I love it! I've seen it coming that the game will release in 2017, but that's okay. It will be good for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrickenBiged Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 2016 we have these things called patches I cringe when I hear that awful outdated quote. Yeah, but then you get a forum thread saying "this game is a broken POS, when is a patch coming". Delaying a game to get it right first time is preferable IMO. Many games these days, especially indies, even hotly anticipated ones, get that first launch week to impress. After that, many gamers will hear the initial, negative feedback, and never express interest in the game again. But I accept your point. Patches are a thing.

Griffon234 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 A little sad that it's delayed, but if they make it as good as when I played Banjo Kazooie/Tooie 15 years ago, it would be well worth the wait. Oh well, I guess more time to play FFXV and Divinity Original Sin 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMDE Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) 2016 we have these things called patches I cringe when I hear that awful outdated quote. Patches usually just do so much, and the game might not function correctly at all until certain things are fixed, which means it must be done before release. Seriously, games can have testers that say the game needs fixes to a lot of stuff, and the people in charge may just fix a couple of these things, saying they can fix the rest after release. This is normal practice in software development when you can release patches. It might be fine when it comes to a lot of software, but in this case, you're punishing people who support you the most, who buy the game on day one. Also, when a game has been released, people have bought it and the publisher got their money, there's very little incentive for the publisher to actually fix the problems other than the most serious and obvious ones. I rather they finish the game, and then release it, instead of half-finish the game, release it and maybe fix some stuff later.

Flop Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) lol that direct hit at the end of the trailer towards 'Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts' And yeah, I already in my mind thought that the game wasn't coming out this year. This is the only game I don't mind being delayed, as I want its team to take their sweet time, and make sure they release the game they want to release, not the game they're being told to release, but they don't want to release. Not much to worry about anywho, since Microsoft ain't got them tied to a leash this time around. And of course, they're Playtonic now, not Rare.

bryman098 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Thats a shame, but i suppose that a delay to quarter one isn't too bad and gives me enough time to finish some of the christmas games i may be interested in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrickenBiged Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 lol that direct hit at the end of the trailer towards 'Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts' Not wanting to go too off topic, but what is the big deal about N&B? Everyone hates on it, but I thought it was great. It wasn't traditional B-K gameplay, sure, but as a spin off title, what it did do was executed very well. People who were butt-hurt over the game not being Banjo-Threeie are doing themselve's a disservice if they ignored or hated this game for what it wasn't, rather than appreciated N&B for what it was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who were butt-hurt over the game not being Banjo-Threeie are doing themselve's a disservice if they ignored or hated this game for what it wasn't, rather than appreciated N&B for what it was. Oh, I actually liked Nuts and Bolts. Not the Banjo-Kazooie game I wanted at all still, though. People say "If you don't think of it as a Banjo-Kazooie game, then maybe you'd enjoy it" Well, I still enjoyed it as a Banjo-Kazooie game. Not the game I still wanted, but I did enjoy it for what it was. I'm sure if Rare did make Banko-Threeie, and had Nuts and Bolts as a spin-off of some sort, and not a main game in the series, or something like that, many people wouldn't be bitching about it, and actually take the time to enjoy it. But knowing that that might be the last and only game from Rare from the Banko-Kazooie series, I guess people decided to bash on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMDE Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) Honestly, I haven't backed this project yet. So far it looks amazing, so I'm very tempted to actually back them to get a digital console release, especially seeing as they will be making DLCs that will be free to backers. It very much seems like they've been focusing on the right things, which is nice to see. Again, I'm glad they are taking their time with this to get it all right.

Erm, I'm still new to crowdfunding... but haven't you missed your chance? I thought Kickstarter gave you a month to raise funds, then donations are closed. Or do they have a PayPal set-up for latecomers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
