    These are difficult times, they will be trying to coax some sort of plan out of brains that have been over-taxed by Bank Holiday BBQs, When sufficient caffeine has been applied, we might get to hear something.

    I'm sure they will announce this week's schedule today, and probably hold a live stream tonight as well, hopefully showing the SEHS route.

    So now you can see what i write earlier... Nothing to worries! The game is in a perfect state so the whole problem what i also write earlier... The cause off this whole point is the stream it self and not the game. So you can relax and wait until friday and have a lot off fun. :)

    So take a beer and relax! Cheers!

    Given all the forum activity over the last several days, you thought the first thing they would have done this morning is get some sort of statement as to where things stand. But apart from one isolated response in a thread from Alex, the silence persists.

    I'm surprised they didn't allow the ambassadors stream as well to get the hype . I doubt there's a stream today as so late announcing it

    I highly doubt the game is in a "perfect state" no TSW (or TSC) game or DLC was ever even close to "perfect".
    From a bit of pre recorded footage I would not draw conclusions. Actually I would rate the streams higher when it comes to resemblance of real world performance

    Starting to get a bit worried. We’re supposed to be playing this less than 72 hours from now, but we still haven’t seen any gameplay from two of the three launch routes whatsoever. Would’ve at least expected an announcement of the streaming schedule by now… :o

    Should probably note that I have no problem at all with a 1-2 week delay, it just needs to be communicated properly.

    Hi

    DTG Gonne silent means something bad is gonna happen. Maybe a delay or something worse.

    Not necessarily bad if it means fixing issues like the save game and better lighting/sound or transferring Journey progress across from TSW2.

    Save the game will deffo no be in before launch, having said that there is alot of damage control they need to do to reassure the fans
     
  11. I'll be interested to see if the issue of exiting a tunnel to see clear blue skies in the middle of a blizzard has been fixed? Or the strange blue light I often see inside a tunnel.

    Unless as I have suggested they put it back as optional with a toggle that informs the player the resumed game may not load in a playable state. Or (for Steam users) they have a beta/test path option that enables the old save.

    Still seems strange to have seen nothing by now. I wonder if the stakeholders, particularly the console providers, have been on the horn this morning raising concerns about it being in an unfit state to release. Neither Sony or M$ want a poorly finished game dragging down the reputation of their platform.

    I still wouldn't be surprised we don't get an announcement later that release has been put back two or three weeks to sort the thing out.

    I would’ve thought a rail fan schedule would’ve been announced this morning or early this afternoon.

    Come on guys, I’m dying to see a livestream gameplay of SEHS.

    Maybe TSW3 is selling so good they decided no additional streams are necessary ;)

    The longer this hiatus goes on, the less believable the official narrative becomes.

    Are we seriously supposed to believe that a software house doesn't have Hardware inhouse that is sufficiently powerful enough to stream TSW3?

    It's fine. Everyone in the community who preordered will no doubt have their own streams going up this weekend once the early access period begins. So we'll have a pretty broad range of impressions of it to work with, and maybe help those of us on the fence make an informed decision based on more than just carefully curated promotional material.

    If we hear nothing, I will be streaming live from my TV into my eyes only on Friday. It won’t help anyone else though.

    Sorry, folks - very busy day after last week away.

    RFTV schedule will be posted later, but keep Thursday evening free. No stream tonight.

    If it wasn't getting SOS for $4 US with the sale on Steam, I would probably cancel at this point. Is JD implying no stream for Wednesday also with the "keep your time open for Thursday"?

    I know the guys and gals are entitled to a bit of family time off, but it still seems remarkable to me in that the lead up to release, whether the 4 day early access on Friday or the main event a week today, the company virtually shut down. This is exactly the point at which concerns need to be addressed and the PR machine in full swing. I just hope the programmers were actually in over the weekend working on the things that matter.

  40. Hopefully the silence is because they want xy and z fixed before the next stream. Stuttering 100% gone. :o

    Judging by the streams we have already seen and DTG going radio silent, I think you are missing a few letters of the alphabet on what they need to fix. I'd say every letter after 'C' sounds about right

    Pleased I didn't preorder, as I think we are about to see a train wreck

    A delay of the release would be great if that time would be spent fixing bugs and improving the stuttering and performance

    Not really a problem is it? Just don’t buy the game until you’ve seen the stream. If you’ve already pre- ordered, you’ll be able to assess it for yourself without the need for a stream.

    Looks like from what JD posted they are not postponing release, so you pays your money and takes your choice, it seems.

    I am still mulling whether to get one of the starter packs next Tuesday but not parting with £40 for the standard unless the save game is restored.
