Seriously? German version delayed. Release TBA

[Dr.Robert]

Come on.

We’re sorry to inform you that we are unable to deliver your pre-ordered version of South Park: The Stick of Truth on March 6th as initially planned. The German and Austrian version of South Park: The Stick of Truth contains an unconstitutional symbol which means that we are unfortunately not able to release the game on the German and Austrian market at this time. This concerns all versions/platforms of the game. There is no need to amend or cancel your pre-order. A new release date of South Park: The Stick of Truth for the German and Austrian market will be announced shortly, and we will ensure that your order is delivered to coincide with this new date.

We are extremely sorry for the additional waiting time, and thank you for your understanding.

Right now they do the same crap Sleeping Dogs pulled and we still don't get patches and DLC for that game because they don't care to support this stupid version they force us to buy of that game.

Moan to your local politician not to people on a steam forum.

Well this is utter bullsh...
Suddenly someone realizes that they actually have to do stuff with the game. Right. Good job. Let's start a day before planed release, oh what was that? Larry called in sick? Well, so let's just delay the german release for an indefinite amount of days/weeks. Tell them "March" up to four weeks should do!

This is what i get for buying spontaneously ONCE. Lesson learned.

I'm from Hungary and my released date changed from 1 day and 3 hours to March 2014 as well...

[FeRRoX]

So, welcome to the club. Everyone's a winner!

[Dr.Robert]

Great. Now everyone can play it 4 weeks after pirates played it!

[Miles Spineless]

Im playing it right now, gifted version works like a charm

[Barney]

I might get lucky though, since at the moment they changed the release date to March 2014 in every region where the game hasn't released yet and according to the message this should only affect Austria and Germany. We'll see

[Code Classified]

It changed to "march 2014" on my store page too i am from the netherlands.... Seriously do they really want to make me into a serial killer by delaying?

[LizardLikeWizard]

Welcome to the nanny state you created by voting in these idiots that make laws about SYMBOLS. As a country you can't allow a symbol of your past because it is a painful reminder of evil? Seems weird.

[Artist]

I feel chated. They must have known they were going to have to do this before now, but oh no, let everyone pay for the pre-order and then tell them it's going to be delayed a couple of days before the release. Very disappointing.

Only if you use a VPN

So ... after having verious gaming magazines repeatedly inquire about this situation and after having clarified on the 25th of February that the AUT / GER PC version will only have the swastikas removed you realize 2 days prior to release "woopsie - we actually have to remove them for that version to be released" and delay people who gave you their money months in advance? Seriously, that's quite a duckmove (and I'm talking about a duck with an i here). No wonder Reloaded and Skidrow are so popular ... -.- Seriously disappointed.

Will there be any kind of compensation for your loyal fans as some sort of apology?

while it is unfortunate the devolopers overlooked your countrys stupid censorship laws, maybe you should ♥♥♥♥♥ about the laws instead?
