Came in expecting a delay, found out he was just talking about it taking a few more hours in some timezones.
Okay.

So basically, this is yet another pointless post from PCGamesN

Not really, there was actually a lot of confusing tweets by some officials about the actual release time to Download and Play MGSV on STEAM.
First it was said that there will be a global steam start at 00:00 New Zealand time, but later Konami tweeted it would be "Launch & Load Starts Sept. 1 U.S. 12:00 AM EST/9:00 pm PST | Sept 1, 2015 UK/LON 5:00 AM CE 6:00 AM"

Fucking clickbait ass titles, every publication these does does it and its getting real annoying
Good thing I'm in no rush to play, I still need to finish 3, 4 and PW on PS3 :v:
Well at least i can start the download at mid-night and hopefully it will be done when i am awake by then.

I need to finish 3 and play PW
I can probably do the former before release but I'm going to be missing a bit of the story when I do TPP.
That's earlier than I expected
From experience, most games I buy launch on Steam at 6pm GMT

I am just watching them all
[QUOTE=RichyZ;48569195]uh this is not a clickbait post
its the difference between me playing it in the morning of monday and midnight of the same day[/QUOTE]
uh yes it is
a title about a delay in the release of a game which, strangely enough, omits the most important piece of information from the title which is the length of delay (or in this case, not a delay as such, just timezone malarky)
non-clickbait title: MGSV releases at 4am in the UK
or
MGSV releases at 12 EST worldwide
this title is almost the top example of a clickbait title
i mean, it's not necessarily a bad thing because this is what vid journo websites have to do now to survive, but this [B]is[/B]​ the definition of a clickbait title
I live in JST timezone (+9 UTC) so either way I would be able to play it until I got home anyway, even if it came out at 11pm the previous night. I don't think I could bribe a corpsman enough to put me SIQ.
Get rid of this stupid bot. There's like one guy that posts decent articles, and this bot rarely posts them

I get people wanting rid of some bots, like the RPS or Shacknews ones, but of we got rid of every bot that posts a shitty article we would have literally no bots.
Who changed the title? I like it.
Why is the thread icon missing? Did this bot get the boot too?
[QUOTE=Rossy167;48573290]of we got rid of every bot that posts a shitty article we would have literally no bots.[/QUOTE]
No bots is better than shit bots? If there's no bot but there's a good article then someone can post it.
[QUOTE=FunnyStarRunner;48573339]Why is the thread icon missing? Did this bot get the boot too?[/QUOTE]
I assume it's because a Moderator changed the thread title.
I seriously doubt it originally had "if you have no fuCKING IDEA HOW STEAM RELEASES WORK"
Deserved title chance (was not me), I added a thread icon back in case that bothered any of you
10/10 change
whichever mod did it should apply to PCGamesN to write their titles and maybe do some epic funny list articles :^)
Every site has its ups and downs. PCGN so far has more good articles than bad. Stop going into threads just to say "destroy this bot in the fire of a thousand burning suns!!!!"
This article could have used a better title but the content is kinda important for some people.
This article made me a bit confused. Is the Steam countdown bullshit? From what I'm gathering it's released at 4 am in the UK but Steam claims it's released at 6 pm, 14 hours later.
If the former is the case, I'll probably start downloading it in the morning and then can play it when I come home after work :v:
On the topic of the title change, I feel like it may or may not've been postal. The sudden capitalization midway through a word is what leads me to believe it.

If that's your outlook on things why do you come to the news node at all, then? That'd solve your bot problem right there.

I meant that specifically about the game news bots since apparently all the gaming news sites are physically incapable of avoiding shit articles and clickbait titles. Others such as the BBC bot aren't that bad.
The people complaining about the title and bot are normally worse than the title and bots.

You act as if there are very many other non-gaming bots besides BCC. If we were to take out all the gaming shit and BCC, you'd be left with like, that one anime blog that posts once every 4 months.

How is forum etiquette even semi-related to newsbots posting bullshit clickbait articles
like beyond the fact that you've resorted to shit-talking your shit-talking isn't even relevant

Sorry man I tried
Aaaaand in only a couple hours the steam page went from 17 hours to 3. Its like they put a retard in charge of their Steamworks account, but then again who am I kidding, it's Konami. :v:

What anime blog are you even talking about? And I specifically said the BBC bot [I]wasn't[/I] bad. Occasionally it has some articles I find dumb like the ones that go over the week's news but in that case it really is just personal opinion on it whereas these game ones are far too often clickbait garbage. People would stop complaining about them if they quit it with the retarded clickbait titles and quit making atrocious articles like their shitty top ten lists. Because they insist on continuing that and because so many people jump to their defense it only serves to make the people who find it stupid more vocal about their distaste.
