Payday: The Heist - Games - Facepunch Forum

Also, I just saw an Xplay segment on Payday. They said it was out the fourth as well, for what G4's word is worth.

Yeah, some rumor started in the Steam forums that the game was going to be delayed. Supposedly, the main website now shows "Coming out October" instead of "Coming out October 4th" and some guy made a big deal about it. As long as it releases before Friday, I'm fine with a delay. I don't know if other people will be though... Still would be nice to get it on its original release date!

If it's not out tomorrow, I'm just going to cancel my preorder and get rage.

EDIT: [b]"This delay is a move to ensure players and fans of our promise and vision to produce high-caliber games that deliver the best quality game experience. Players who pre-ordered PAYDAY: The Heist will receive the game at launch, and those who purchased the four other PSN titles as part of the PlayStation®Network PLAY program will also be awarded PAYDAY: The Heist when it launches later this month, according to the terms of that program."

This is going to die FAST without Multiplayer, it could benefit so much from it, too. With 4 bank robbers and 2 police officers with squads.

[QUOTE=MountainWatcher;32614117]This is going to die FAST without Multiplayer, it could benefit so much from it, too.

Games like Mindjack (One of the worst games ever made, which probably only had 300 sales on release) are still alive because of the Drop in feature. I can see a game that requires at least 4v4 to start a game to die, but a 4 player co-op game with drop in drop out? Nope.

Mindjack actually has players? Well holy shit.

[QUOTE=Lucinice;32614381]Mindjack actually has players? Well holy shit.[/QUOTE] Yep lol. I had the PS3 version last month, and random people constantly joined and kicked my ass. The game had an interesting concept, but the gameplay ruined it for me.

The blog there is the Playstation blog, and mentions something in regards to PSN members and some Playstation even, yet no mention of the PC anywhere.

If it is, the Steam forums will be a good show.

[QUOTE=A B.A. Survivor;32095114]You clearly don't know what First-Person shooter means.[/QUOTE] A shooter from the first person perspective?

I guess the delay serves me right for getting my hopes up. :/

I don't mind, I have other stuff to play, and Portal 2 DLC comes out Tuesday as well as RAGE, and polish helps, but if this is for nothing, then meh.

Preordered it. I don't care if it's a shitty game, you can enjoy even Pokemon if you play with friends.

What is with this habit of announcing delays the night before release?

What the hell the game got delayed? [editline]4th October 2011[/editline] This is bullshit, I was really looking forwards to this :(

Something from their twitter account... From the guys @ Overkillsoftware: PAYDAY release date update Posted on 2011/10/04 by simon As many of you already know, the world has to wait a teeny weeny bit longer for Payday to hit the streets. We apologize for this, and we sincerely apologize for coming out with this information so late. It’s just that we worked so hard – and kept hoping a punctual release would e possible – up until the very last minute. We’ve been nurturing this baby for 20 months – it’s now full grown and ready to rock your socks off – but as it turns out we need just a few more days with it. The game is literally done – it is currently being reviewed for final certification. Pre-ordering are still rolling, the PSN Play deal is still in effect – and for those planning to get the game on Steam, the 10% discount pre-order deal continues! Joining a criminal network has never been so economically and morally affordable! The game is still due release this month (October) so you won’t have to wait much longer! The OVERKILL crew ------------------------- Hopefully a few days means by Friday. :D

They put the lauch party to 6th, chances are it releases then.

Is the demo coming out at the same time as the release or have they not said anything about that yet?

[QUOTE=simkas;32625180]Is the demo coming out at the same time as the release or have they not said anything about that yet?[/QUOTE]They said they aim to do it that way but there is no definitive date

[QUOTE=SEKCobra;32625011]They put the lauch party to 6th, chances are it releases then.[/QUOTE] May I ask where you received this info exactly? If this is true... YEEEEEEES!

He's Sekcobra? He runs a big game reviewing site.

[QUOTE=Ruski v2.0;32628027]He's Sekcobra? He runs a big game reviewing site.[/QUOTE] Heh, I wish I knew before I asked. Anyway, AWESOME news. Can't wait for the 6th then!

I wouldn't, and won't get my hopes up. :/

[QUOTE=Ruski v2.0;32628027]He's Sekcobra? He runs a big game reviewing site.[/QUOTE] Good one :v:

Till later this month it seems [url]http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/payday-the-heist-delayed/[/url]

[QUOTE=Rong;32631436]Till later this month it seems [url]http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/payday-the-heist-delayed/[/url][/QUOTE] They say a couple of weeks, the developers say a couple of days. I'll go with the developers.
