Acting like Epic owes you a game is ridiculous. It's not ready, so they're not releasing it. I wish more developers would take this kind of precaution rather than release buggy, unfinished games.

TA is a gaming website and as such, they go out of their way to get the news as soon as possible. The fact is, most people don't know anything about this games' development cycle and haven't been following it for almost 2 years. Maybe we shouldn't get the hype train rolling as soon as we do here, so you guys don't lose touch of reality.

I'm not acting like Epic owes me anything. I'm just stating a fact, their communication sucks. They originally said this game would be out by December 2012. At least drop a line and state if they are moving forward with the game or maybe they have dropped it ( who knows ?)

I don't really care if the game is released in 2014 but some sort of update would be nice.

I've wanted that from the beginning. They tried very subtle updates on the Epic forums when impossible took over. This game is either scrapped and we'll never see it or they're just waiting to come out of the dark with something amazing. I think IB as a franchise is wayyyy to popular for them to give up on. Especially considering its the highest paying game for what they put into it. So worst case scenario, they scrap IB: D and they release IB3 later this year. Not too shabby of an outcome.

Epic Games is closing Impossible Studios, Infinity Blade: Dungeons delayed

Epic Games is closing Maryland-based Impossible Studios and has delayed development on Infinity Blade: Dungeons, the company announced today.

Score:

We’re closing Impossible Studios.

When former members of Big Huge Games approached Epic last year, we saw the opportunity to help a great group of people while putting them to work on a project that needed a team. It was a bold initiative and the Impossible folks made a gallant effort, but ultimately it wasn’t working out for Epic.

In addition to providing Impossible Studios employees with 3 months of severance pay, we’ll be giving the team the opportunity to form a new company with the Impossible Studios name and the awesome Impossibear logo.

This means that Infinity Blade: Dungeons is now on hold as we figure out the future of the project.

Could someone now finally close this thread since at the current point there is absolutely no sense why it is still open.

I had a feeling something like this would happen.

Ah well.

[Quazonk]

Shit. That's a serious, serious bummer. Oh well, at least we have thousands and thousands of other games to tide us over in the meantime.

[DaviddesJ]

Why can't we discuss the closure of the project? How does it offend you to let people post on what they want?

[Eli]

Ahh well, it was going to be free to play anyway. I guess pick your poison over which makes you more angry.
