So they planned to release the 14th but decided on 10th

Or they planned to release on the 7th and decided on 10th

Or C: it's none of the above and gabe just dumps the remaining ones off his boat into the sea

Well, I will cope with what I can.

Steam Frame on the 7th.

u/Cat_doing_Taxes 1d ago

May the 7th be with you.

u/Splatoonkindaguy 1d ago

The announcement literally said summer 2027 idk why you guys expected it this summer?? Cmon guys

u/ThePomqueteer 1d ago

its easy to miss but if you read in between the lines, i think we can get what hes saying

And to prevent any possible speculations (yeah, I have been following the fallout of my previously misinterpreted statements XD):

NO, I nor 2080 Games have any knowledge of this being the SteamFrames launch day! (and sadly would'nt be getting any trophy if it would turn out to be ^^)

My post is about news regarding the game that supposedly was supposed to release alongside the Steam frame. It’s NOT about a rumor/leak release date of the frame.

u/sdurbv 1d ago

This is exactly what he would write if he secretly knew the Frame launch date. September 10th confirmed.

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

In my opinion, homeboy definitely was talking with valve

u/dangoran78 1d ago edited 1d ago

Definitely. He didn't just one day decide to take on a massive project by himself to build a HLA-mod from the ground up in another engine as a full game. He got the offer from Valve to come along for the ride and keep developing his game using their engine and new tools as they were developed.

(in other words, they've been talking a lot)

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

Couldn’t have said it any better

u/OkVeterinarian197 1d ago

It's source 2 now?

3

u/dangoran78 23h ago

It has made too much sense from the start when it was rumored to be developed in Source 2. Of course he had to say something else when that got out because Valve likes to reveal things when they are ready.

I'm not a game developer but this has to be a too ambitious game for a solo developer, right? Unless he could start where he left of with his mods and has had support.

I had a prediction related to this that has come true. That Valve would release developer tools for Source 2. They didn't themselves but S&box is obviously a close cooperation. It hasn't gotten that much attention yet, but it will.

"Stand Alone" could refer to other things, but it conveniently sounds like it could be advertising S&box's ability to release standalone games. Planned all along.

Both flat screen and VR? He just thought that was a good idea years ago when deciding to take on a project that was huge already? Or does that just align with a direction someone else wants take VR?

u/ZookeepergameProud30 1d ago

Steam frame took so long to come out that they are changing the release date 😭😭😭

4

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

I think they just don’t wanna wait on Valve anymore to release their game😂

3

u/ttenor12 1d ago

Good. I want to play this game at some point and not wait until 2050.

2

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

I do to man, I don’t care if it releases with the frame or not I been wait for this damn game lol

u/NoOdyssey 1d ago

Funny but I got down voted earlier for suggesting that they do what makes sense for them instead of tying them to an extremely uncertain release date.

u/willymartin99 Soon™ 1d ago

Downvotes don’t make you wrong, don’t let em get to you

u/elev8dity Soon™ 1d ago

Votes are about how you made others feel not about being right/wrong lol

7

u/NoOdyssey 1d ago

It's all good, I don't care about imaginary internet points. I can empathize that many people are eagerly awaiting the Frame and have been very disappointed with constant delays, so the voting behavior in the subreddit is all over the place.

1

u/Jmcgee1125 Soon™ 1d ago

It's Reddit, I think people just get a kick out of making the button blue.

6

u/RedRyck33 1d ago

If they release it, 99% they tested it with frame. 

2

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

He never said had a steam frame dev kit but I believe he does, he also made a non vr version of the game and optimized it for steam deck.

5

u/Koolala 1d ago

The trailer didn't say "Playable on Steam Frame and Steam Deck". If they had a dev kit you'd think they would have said that. Devs are allowed to say their game is playable on Frame.

1

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

Watch his YouTube shorts he’s says coming to steam deck, the flat screen, and pcvr. Also he doesn’t have to say he Has a dev kit I just said he never said he has one or doesn’t have one.

2

u/Koolala 1d ago

You'd think they would put Frame on that list too like Deck if they had one.

If they don't have a Frame kit then they wouldn't have possibly had info on the release date announcement for Frame.

Its all moot now anyways since they posted on the Reddit here about it saying they didn't know anything.

1

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

Yeah but wouldn’t a NDA prevent them saying anything about the release date and or even talk about it. I mean i know what the dev said about not knowing anything, but of course he would

2

u/Koolala 1d ago

It wouldn't prevent them from saying their game runs on Frame. And the original point was they used clever language to avoid breaking any NDA.

1

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

Ahh i understand, i just haven’t heard of any other vr game devs saying their game runs on the frame.

1

u/Koolala 1d ago

Climbey is the main one and they show videos on YouTube

u/Scoolilis Soon™ 1d ago

what is their discord?

3

u/Dominyque_W Soon™ 1d ago

FUCKYEAH!

12

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

MODS please don’t remove this it’s a legitimate date for the game, a game that is or was supposed to release alongside Steam Frame 😭😭

3

u/Koolala 1d ago

"Note: While the initial plan was to launch the same day as Steam Frame, we ultimately decided to choose our own launch timing. But we still have full trust that SteamFrame will be coming this Summer, as this is Valves last standing statement. "

2

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

For clarification this post isn’t a steam frame release date leak. I just follow the gunman contracts discord and seen that the dev posted a release date and quickly made a post about it. This post is relevant to the Frame because the dev said the game would release alongside the Steam Frame. That is no longer the case it seems. Here is the link to their discord if you want to see the full post. https://discord.gg/B7RqD5RQ5

Bruh why y’all downvoting me 🤦🏻‍♂️

u/BurgerAppreciator Soon™ 1d ago

This subreddit is basically a cage full of crack addicted monkeys ripping each other apart while waiting for the fix. Myself included.

1

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

That deserves a upvote

-7

u/2Cool4Zool2 1d ago

The game isn't a VR exclusive though.

5

u/Anxious-Ad-4727 1d ago

Vr exclusive or not, they made the claim to release alongside the frame

-7

u/2Cool4Zool2 1d ago

Yes. They had a build that was valid and ready to go and their plan was to wait for the Frame to launch and then hit the button.

Now they changed the plan. At no point did/do they know when the frame is launching

u/Bscotch_Torin Soon™ 1d ago

9/11 LAUNCH DAY

u/sunshinestreak Soon™ 1d ago

Never forget, always tomorrow

u/Sweaty_Vape_Wizard 1d ago

Frame tomorrow.

u/2Cool4Zool2 1d ago

Oh would you look at that - The same day the lottery closes.

u/ApplicationSenior 1d ago

I think I can see it. Announce and do the lottery from the 7th. Shipping/release begins with reservations being selected and bought

u/ApplicationSenior 1d ago

Hmm ngl man even though im saving up a lot of cash for this thing the fact they didnt release it yet and they only would have 2 mondays left to do so before they miss the summer window? I feel frustrated.

Valve needed to get this out last monday.

u/BurgerAppreciator Soon™ 1d ago

The people claiming it can't be the 7th also don't run things.

u/Yoshka83 1d ago

Seen Trailer 10sec ago. Did we have a date? 😱
