After the discovery of some dastardly bugs in Calling All Cars, David Jaffe and his team have had to take an extra few weeks to fix the problems, meaning the game will now miss its May 25 release.
Over on NeoGAF forum, Jaffe detailed the bugs which are responsible for the delay.
“About 30% of the time if the host of a network game quit to the XMB or powered off his PS3, the other folks in the game would experience a hang/crash when going back to the game lobby. This was way too frequent for a crash bug and we wanted it fixed,” Jaffe said.
Describing the second bug, Jaffe said: “If players were doing voice chat and one player unplugged his head set and quit out of the game, when he tried to jump into a new game, about 50% of the time the player would be able to play the game but no one could hear him over voice chat.“
These problems, together with fixing an issue brought up in one of the game’s first online reviews, have added an extra few weeks to the development. Sony is now expecting the game in early June.
