Opening weekend beat Maverick. More cinema goers buy video games than critics… nice to see you still have so much spare time YH!

You take obsession to a whole new level Yank. It's been 8 years since #Offlinegate and you're still here claiming the sky is falling.

Now who was it saying the success of the forthcoming Jurassic World film would resurrect sales of FDEV's flopped JWE2 game?? Ah yes, the FDEV board...

Foundry title Deliver Us Mars has a release date now too. 27th September

makw61, yes I noticed that too, interesting, I've been looking but can't find any verification yet

[yankhanson] 08/6/2022 13:42

JHardline5, "given Chaosgate is a success".

Not true, sadly. Looked good initially, but was soon driven down by negative reviews and within a few weeks it was out of the Steam top 100, and still is.

On the second youtub video the guy says that the game uses the Unreal engine? Has anyone seen that confirmed elsewhere? Interesting move if true (and makes sense i think).

Just a sign of the times:

Management minds needs to be concentrated.

On the Twitter for F1 Manager 22 there is an A to Z of the game. Currently at "K" and updated roughly every 4 to 5 days. If release is once they get to "Z" that puts it end of July. Speculation herehttps://youtu.be/YuXwClcZGE8that it will be weekend of French GP which is 24th July

F1 release needs to steal others thunder.
Can't be too far off now.
Would hope before end of June or even before Whitsun break.

Trading statement and game announcement was 11th June 2021.

Since JP Morgan is still holding a 1.29 Percent short position (which equates to ca. 508k stocks - you can look it up at They reduced it from 1.31 percent - so
maybe they are covering their short position which could present a nice trading opportunity (given Chaosgate is a success).

Warhammer 40k Chaosgate Daemonhunter releases tomorrowGood reviews coming out, curreny averaging 81 on Metacritic.No 1 on Steam top sellers at the moment

[1knocker] 26/4/2022 20:12

Just looked in because an ADFERN alert came up. I got out of these a while back, happily at a profit. Itseemed to me then that this Nisan impossible stock to keep a handle on. Its only as good as its last release, and no no knowing how well the next will be received.

[p1nkfish] 26/4/2022 18:42

There should be no compromise. First and best should be the expectation else time and standards slip. Management is what some people are paid more for. Let's see.

[ck1111] 26/4/2022 18:22

Maybe a tradeoff between rush out and possible quality drop vs optimise release date. If it was me I'd prioritise quality. But I get your point. We'll find out soon!

[p1nkfish] 26/4/2022 17:40

ck1111, if there is a limited pool of cash likely to be spent an F1 game then being 2nd to the party won't be compensated for by being the best. Much of the cash will have already been spent.

It needs to be the best and first out the gate.

Literally POLE POSITION, not the bridesmaid.

[ck1111] 26/4/2022 16:22

EA codemasters F1 22 is July 1st so I'd think FDev will avoid clash. Maybe late Aug / Sep?If it is good should sell well regardless of point in season?

[p1nkfish] 26/4/2022 15:00

It says release in summer. 1/2 way through June towards end of July?
August is surely too late and September is hardly summer.

[p1nkfish] 26/4/2022 14:47

Any idea when F1 is released, was supposed to be in the 2022 season, did I miss it?

I think there are 22 rounds in the season so if not released yet what's the point too far along the number of rounds. Round 7 is 1/3 way through and about May 27-29. Round 10 is July 01-03.

Much past round 11 and its August and half the season spent.

Feel's FDEV share price is aimlessly drifting at the moment, not helped by harder market conditions for this sort of company over recent months plus more recent trading statements not being ideal

Last market update was early Jan, so 3.5 months ago which again contributes to the drift. I think we can expect a TU in the second week of June after the financial year ends. Possible chance of one in the next week or two if management are at the point where they have enough visibility of expectations being materially exceeded or missed.

Think it needs that update to provide some direction, hopefully positive direction, for the share price

[fledgling1nvestor] 26/4/2022 12:59

Possibly another Employee Benefit Trust purchase? They seem to be happening on a pretty much weekly basis. £5m spent buying up shares from the market over the last 3 weeks.

[p1nkfish] 26/4/2022 12:12

I think an overhang might have been shifted and/or news due??

[p1nkfish] 26/4/2022 10:02

Weird bounce just now.
Whats up?
Have been buying, see better days ahead imho, dyor etc.
