mmm... was looking forward to this. I'm sure Codemasters won't want it to slip too far into autumn as it'll get buried by Modern Warfare 2.

Shame it's delayed, but I'd rather they made it better than release it unfinished.

jeez the summer so far is soooo boring

Batman, Dragon Age now this..

Why don't they just put all the games back to Christmas!!

What else is there to look forward too this month?

I was looking forward to Terminator game but have noticed it priced at £29.99 on gameplay = crap game - oh dear

That does suck.

But as mentioned, I spose its better they spend a few extra months giving it a real hard polish than roll out patches for the next 3 months after release. Still think this has got what it takes, looks awesome. Co-op with a squad of buddies is going to be amazing!

as per the devs, they mentioned that the delay was only to balance out the gameplay and tighten up the AI a bit.
other than that, the game is rock solid

Well a summer release would have let the game build up momentum prior to MW2.

Launching within a few weeks of MW2 could very well be the equivalent of multi-player suicide.

Launching with a borked game could sink it anyway (ARMA) so I guess it is quite a dilemma.

Half expect this to launch in Feb 2010.

The way I see it, I'll have ArmA2 for when I've got my serious wargaming hat on, and this for when said hat is at a jaunty angle.

Can't see either game being bad, really (patches not withstanding).

Both look impressive so far. I'll probably buy both and keep everyone happy.

Judging from all the videos, it seems ArmA will have the more "Operation-Flashpoint-feel" to it.

That's fine and everything and hopefully it will be a good game. But [Not Op Flash 2] has the look of being unutterably badass and awesome.

Everyone's a winner.
