Ok man, please explain to the software developer how software development works, lmao. Y’all totally aren’t being Karens…
I’m sure that the game plan was to launch OOTPGo much earlier. However, their main priority is regular OOTP and apparently Go is a product that they can pull team members off of. They’re currently testing it. If they could deliver a non-buggy product today then they would but the only way you deliver a non-buggy product is to have your QA team test it and confirm there aren’t at least massive, game breaking bugs. It’ll hit public beta next and then only after it passes that stage will it hit gold.
At that, I’ll predict right now that it’ll have some big old bugs in it because the developers feel the pressure of being pretty far behind on a product they wanted to deliver earlier. What I hope doesn’t happen is that it’s a buggy mess a la Cyberpunk 2077, which is way worse than if it comes out in September or something. And you, of course, don’t want that either but you won’t argue that because it goes against your philosophy of knowing more about how software development works than people who actually do this crap for a living. So if it comes out in, say, 2 weeks and is super buggy, you’ll just whinge about how True Software doesn’t ever miss deadlines and has no bugs or something dumb.
