why are reviewers receiving the game 1 month in advance and the average customers has to wait. If the game is finished, should have released the digital version
Lol because that's how literally every game works. Reviewers get the game before the public, they play it, write their review and publish it on the embargo date.

practically a full month tho?

correct me if I’m wrong but that doesn’t seem to be the norm
Game publishers tend to hand our review copies early if they are highly confident about the game.
The earlier they release review copies , the higher of a chance the game has of being good.
Thats why some reviewers get copies like the day before release, so that the bad reviews
dont hurt too much the sales.

ya I’m definitely familiar w/ the bush league tactics @ the bold...some don’t even send out copies until the release date so first day sales are not hampered by negative reviews...I’m just used to hearing about reviewers getting copies a week or two in advance...anyway this has been an atypical release for obvious reasons...I guess it’s smarter to get it out even earlier than usual...this is definitely building up even more anticipation for it and it seems like the game will absolutely deliver if they’re this confident

An entire month out is unheard of, you're right.. Like I said earlier in this thread, they are godDAMN confident in this game.

Never seen such flat out confidence and sureness from devs before release tbh.

First AAAA game about to drop in a month :wow:

So he's saying written leaks about the game not in clips aren't true. Hmmmm. Seems like people were discussing and overreacting to fake news? :mjlol:


The most me'me'd parts of the leaks were all accompanied by video clips. So, no.

There was one significant leak, if untrue, would save 'em. Because it ruins the first day.

But, everything that most ppl were mad about was proven.

You didn't read the first part of the tweet? The "written" leaks that don't have video clips are untrue. Either way I couldn't give a shyt about leaks or gamers upset about something, this shyt si getting copped at early.

Understood. But, I knew what part you were making. My point was; most people weren't tripping off the stuff that didn't have video.

I can't wait to play the game, read the "spoilers" and the reactions to see what the hell people were "upset" about. lol.
