Ha, xander or EmCee just asked me yesterday which Q1 game would be delayed and I went "I could see Mirror's Edge getting delayed to May given how silent it's been."

Soothsayer!

 

[Mass_Pincup]

Of fucking course, every game I'm anticipating ends up being delayed this gen. Uncharted 4, Persona 5 (Twice!), The Order and now Mirror's Edge. Just stop announcing release date if you can't make them.

 

[Big Green Anus]

Very happy to see this news, since February was getting too crowded.

 

[King_Moc]

As much as I'm looking forward to it, I don't want to see it sent to die like it would have been. A good move.

 

[Rickelodeon]

Dang but all for it if it leads to a polished game and also Deus Ex coming out on the same day i would've had a hard time choosing! And ALSO, May 24 is one day after my birthday! i know what i'm buying with birthday money!

 

[RespectThySole]

saw that Deux Ex release date

Shook Ones

Ha!

 

[Loading]

I think this is the best decision, Q1 was looking insane

 

[Alpha Phoenix]

Far Cry is next.

Maybe even Deus Ex.

I knew Feb 23rd sounded too good a day to be real.

 

[Stupid Sexy Flanders]

Nooo
Hope it's an actual "we're making the game better" delay rather than a marketing one

 

[ZeroGravity]

Perfectly fine with this.

 

[brau]

Not surprised, to be honest.

This.

I am ok with this too. Better them get something awesome, than something buggy. Really looking forward to the PC build.

 

[RionaaM]

Given that I bought my new PC last month, I need quite some to catch up with the newest titles, so I'm OK with this.

 

[Grief51]

Fuuuuuuu*k!! I am so excited for this game. Can't believe I have to wait another 3 months Gotta have patience I guess.

PS: Plz no more delays next spring

 

[Plinko]

What a perfect game to end the teaching year with. Cannot wait.

I wish more games like this would release near summer.

 

[silva1991]

Current gen game delayed? shocking.

 

[M.Steiner]

Shame, but I'm cool with this. Been waiting years for this so a few more months won't kill me. Lots of stuff coming out before then too.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Current gen game delayed? shocking.

 

[Deleted member 80556]

3 more months of development and a nice breathing room for it to be released so it's not DOA? Excellent decision.

 

[Tagyhag]

Fine with me, just make it good!

 

[family_guy]

I think at least half of 2016 Q1 titles won't make their scheduled release dates.

 

[johnnydrama]

Awesome news. I was planning on playing Deus Ex that month anyway.

 

[Damerman]

one of my top 3 most anticipated. It's unfortunate, but i hope its for the best.

 

[shinobi602]

February's fucking packed tighter than a Thanksgiving turkey anyway. It's better for it.

 

[AppleMIX]

Good.

February is way to stacked.

 

[Acquiescence]

You've got to look on the bright side I suppose. It would've been fighting for a lot of attention if it came out in February. Hopefully May will be a relatively quiet month so that it can truly stand out and connect to a bigger audience. I don't want to wait another 7 years for the next installment.

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

I mean, I'm disappointed it got delayed, but Feb/March is pretty stacked anyway.

 

[AyaisMUsikWhore]

Far Cry is next.

.

 

[Ennosuke]

I am sad now

 

[IvanJ]

I'm actually glad. Was looking forward to it, but Far Cry was scheduled for the same day, and that has priority.

 

[Last_colossi]

I'd much rather a great delayed game than a rushed mediocre one. Take as much time as you need Dice, I'll still be there day one.

 

[Kralamoonard]

I am sad now

 

[RoboPlato]

Of all the games releasing in February, this was the one I expected would get a delay. They haven't shown much from it and it would get crushed launching on the same day as Deus Ex and Far Cry.

 

[ChaosXVI]

I honestly doubt this is happening purely due to needing more development time. EA more than likely wanted to move the release to prevent the game from being sent to die against so many other heavy hitters in February. But since it's going to be delayed for 3 months, might as well do some extra QA and shit.

 

[Boke1879]

Q1 is too packed. I figured this would happen and I think it's for the best. Spread these releases out.

 

[DottyHead]

Good move it will be a much easier purchase in may because Q1 is stacked and it looked like it would be forgot about

 

[Seven4sses]

I can wait. I'm really pulling for this game to be great.

 

[User 479360]

Meh. It'll just be a rental or something I play down the road anyways. Mirror's Edge was neat, but it didn't do a lot for me with its need for perfect jumps and how incredibly repetitive/dull it got.

 

[oti]

One could say she ...parcoured... her way out of a crowded area.

 

[Wanderer5]

Aw oh well, but can wait. Make it as good as possible!

 

[ViewtifulJC]

One could say she ...parcoured... her way out of a crowded area.

this was terrible and you should feel terrible

 

[A-V-B]

One could say she ...parcoured... her way out of a crowded area.

 

[Salmonax]

Fine by me. Make it as great as possible. I'll buy it without hesitation whenever it comes out.

 

[KORNdoggy]

It'll be the first of many. Deus ex next.

 

[oti]

this was terrible and you should feel terrible

You're totes jell.

 

[EpicBox]

Good. From the demo I played, the enemy AI really needed some work.

 

[Shredderi]

I jinxed it.

The first thing I thought of when reading this was your thread. Dammit all to hell. In reality there are so many games in february alone that are must haves that this isn't a big loss.

 

[Sidewinder]

Take your time, fellas. Make it the best you can.

That' all folks! And it's not like 2016 haz no games.

 

[TVexperto]

In hindsight I expected this after seeing the PS4 2016 thread, there has been no new footage after E3 and no real news but better a delayed game than a broken game! Im so glad EA is giving the devs more time instead of making them rush incomplete games just to make the release date.

 

[DevilFox]

I didn't even know there was a release date already. Well, I know what to buy for my birthday now.
The game looks great and I'm ok with them taking all the time they need.

[Possumowner]

Well,at least it saves me from being utterly broke in Feb.
