Watch Dogs is a game that has looked like a finished product for months! Even when shown at its E3 debut it looked fairly polished and everyone expected it would be done very quickly. The game now has been delayed from November when the game was like a week from going to being printed on to discs and we have no solid release date!!! No where in sight. Ubisoft wont even comment when people ask if the wii u version is still coming out. 

The games website hasn't even been updated since they announced the delay and since then everything that the media is saying is negative. Its almost like no one has a clue when Watch Dogs is releasing. Xbox Magazine has Watchdogs releasing in March, Gamestop has it releasing in June (Where I work) And i really think its ridiculous to keep delaying a game where DLC is already finished.

And guess what!! Now the voice actor for Aiden Pierce (the main protaganist) is coming to twitter saying they wont even be done doing voice work for the game until April may june. Thats the latest i figured we would get Watch Dogs in general?!

What do you guys think happened here? Is Watch Dogs doomed???? When do u see it releasing?

I swear I thought this game would have been out by the holidays... didn't they say it was gonna get an October release last year???

I have bad expectations for this game, all the hype has disappeared, if it's not going to be finished till August/September this year than they're definitely in trouble. 

I thought they were just delaying it till February or something so it doesn't collide with GTA V, but it doesn't look like that's a thing :s

DLC voice work?

It's probably issues with the guys who actually made the game, one or two of them left the company.

They said the same thing about The Division, I think I read a peice on Gamespot or Pixel enemy, about some of the developers saying that the 2014 launch window was "laughable". Who knows, Ubisoft might push back the game even more. But I suspect they just delayed it so it wouldn't coincide with their other AAA title Assassins Creed 4.

You can never over-polish a game.

Constant delays never hampered the hype around Gran Turismo 5.

[Happy Monk]

I don't really know what's going on with the game, but by now surely most people have lost at least some interest, and others have gathered more hype meaning the game will go down as a disappointment.

getting delayed again? 

 

first signs of drasticly increased dev costs and development time for the new generation?

[Raiden]

The game was delayed because of GTAV. The actor is likely talking about DLC work and/or other promotions

Funny how Ubisoft won't release the current gen versions before the next gen ones... Unlike how everyone treated the Wii U at launch. Basically they're doing what they did with Rayman Legends, except they've avoided criticism by not saying why it was delayed.

But what if you are polishing a turd?

Take it from me, polishing turds doesn't take as much time as you think.

We probably won't see it until the Summer 2014 at the latest.

Stop whining. I was waiting for Diablo 3 for good 10 years and it turned out to be juvenile crap. Waiting for a couple more months ? Come on.

Too me Diablo 3 isnt even bad but okay, and the point is they have lied twice about a release date.

[Socalmuscle]

The game sucked. Got more hype than expected. Fixing it takes time.

Prob trying to balance how much to borrow from the division.

Pure speculation. But wouldn't be surprised at all.
