Dagenham_Dave Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Further to Lollujo's tweet, he also tweeted this... So, they all knew it wasn't going to be yesterday or sooner, so clearly the devs also knew. What was wrong with someone from SI informing all of us about this instead of the endless days of speculation and annoyance on here? Poor, poor show. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also worth pointing out that the YouTubers couldn't state that it wouldn't be out before today, as I guess this could have also breached their NDAs?

Probably because that sets a precedent in terms of future beta releases. If they come out and said "it's not today", then every single day next year from October 1st onwards there will be screeching herds on twitter/reddit/here/steam demanding to know.

What was wrong with someone from SI informing all of us about this instead of the endless days of speculation and annoyance on here? Poor, poor show. Hype, pretty much. We had over 100 members on this thread throughout the day, although it seems to have backfired and turned into negative attention now! I do agree, Neil Brocks "Today is not that day" was quite useful in previous editions. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll always quote the party of line of saying they only ever promise two weeks before launch. SI don't fuel this speculation themselves, it's something we all do off our own backs.

davehanson Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Hopefully today. Am on holiday to Spain from Saturday for the half term week. Would love to get the game installed and set up, then I can picture myself sitting by the pool, drinking Pina Colada’s while playing FM24. Perfect.
