Først dropper BlueByte den officielle betatest af Settlers IV, fordi firmaet ville have spillet på markedet hurtigere. Nu har man officielt annonceret, at spillet alligevel bliver forsinket – igen.
BlueBytes håndtering af Settlers IV nærmer sig efterhånden det pinlige. Først valgte man at droppe en stort anlagt betatest – hvor bl.a. Daily Rush var involveret – for på den måde at nå spillets oprindelige deadline. Betatest eller ej – resultatet synes at være det samme: Spillet bliver forsinket.
BlueByte chef udtaler sig
BlueBytes chef og ejer, Thomas Hertzler, havde følgende at sige om forsinkelsen:
This was a very difficult decision for us to make. Judging by the online preorders, and the retail orders in Europe, we know that a lot of gamers have been really looking forward to the release of THE SETTLERS IV this year, and we obviously understand their disappointment. However, at the end of the day, we have also made this decision with Settlers players in mind. We know that the game won’t be ready before Christmas, but fans will be getting a game that lives up to Blue Byte’s high standards. We will continue with the tradition of only releasing games when they are ready.
Ganske simpelt flovt.
