Developer for The Division admires the decision for delaying Watch Dogs
David Polfeldt, director of Massive Entertainment, studio behind Tom Clancy’s The Division , said the delay that Watch Dogs suffered a few months ago by Ubisoft sent an important message to the industry: quality outweighs the timely launch of games.
Polfeldt clarified that as a development studio, is vital to have the support of the distribution at critical times and that Ubisoft is willing to compromise their quality gains its title gives them opportunity to deliver a better product. “I think its shares fell 25% the day of the declaration. It takes character to spend a day like that and still think it was the right decision. So for us, it’s an important message to know that the management at the end of the day, support the goals we have, which means that the game has to be good. “He added.
Hopefully these statements do not affect the next shooter MMO due out for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, because indirectly strengthen rumors that the next installment of Massive Entertainment will not be ready before 2015.
