However, despite the new announcement of the game being pushed back to November, fans are not too upset. Instead, fans believe waiting a while longer in exchange for a properly made game isn’t much of a big deal.
Fans show their unwavering support
Since the decision was announced by the devs, fans have come forward in numbers to show that they’re standing behind the decision.
Nobody wants a game that feels rushed, buggy, incomplete. So waiting a little longer for a more polished game? The trade off sounds like it could be worth it.
Definitely not a problem, take all the time that you need. Better to have a great complete game instead of a rushed one 😁 Looking forward to the game when you're ready 😌💯

Take your time as this game is shaping up to be awesome with some more polish. Hopefully the release build will have better hardware optimizations than the other UE5 games so far.
