Rognik.2579 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Considering that we're over a year and a half into this new "every 2 months an update" format, and this is only the second time they risked missing that deadline (only if it gets released in March will that have truly passed), I think ArenaNet has been doing a pretty good job. Thanks for the update, and we all look forward to logging in for the new episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorin.9564 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I think that this quality management is more important than speed to release the new story. Take your time Anet and get the best result. Kind regards from germany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KronosBaelfire.6289 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Thanks for letting us know what's going on Anet. When I logged on today I was disappointed to not see ANYTHING about the next episode. Keep up the strong work and I'm looking forward to playing the next episode!

Ah well :) If it's anything like the standard that was set in S4E1, it'll be worth the wait.It's my birthday too, and this was probably what I looked forward to the most (kinda sad but I'm a fanatic).

astrand.5419 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Thank you for the update! I hope everything gets taken care of. I'd rather wait longer for an awesome chapter than have it rushed then crashing. I love the story!!! In the meantime I will be patient ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 @Healix.5819 said:@"Susy.7529" said:The "E" of ETA means "Estimated" and almost everything in the universe can be estimated.Some people take everything ArenNet says as a promise. Colin's big problem was revealing stuff months in advance, even when it was just an idea. When he left, their policy changed to only talking about it when it's ready to ship, so they're not going to give any estimations.They have delayed just the trailer before by a few days, so it could still launch on schedule. If they do delay it by a week however, episode 3 will have the opportunity to line up with E3.It may be the time of day, but line up with which E3? Episode 3 of Season 3? Season 4? Some other E3?

Chickenooble.5014 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 As long as you guys don't make more "Astralarium Stairs" in the next release, you can have as much time as you need. If I see some shoddy environment design like that mess of a building then I'm going to get really upset with you guys and buy fewer gems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vyrulisse.1246 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Unsure how bugs preclude you from putting a trailer out. If you have a release date in the trailer just cut off the part that has it and show it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Thanks for the update.As frustrating as it is (especially at a time when I've managed to reduce most of my gameplay to 'gather mats, craft bits for legendary, repeat') I'd much, much rather have a later release that's complete and working than an earlier one that's not right.And hey, I'm also waiting for Shenmue 3 and by comparison this is nothing.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I am aware of that. I would hope that Episode 3 would not come out after June 12th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekoneiric.6817 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Take your time. I just wish the devs would drop a waypoint on Claw Island and some events using existing easy to code assets to keep players occupied. Maybe Inquest shipwreck releasing karka and pocket raptors plus nighttime pirate raids. They also could put a vapor portal across the mouth of the bay on Lion's Arch so players can get there to unlock the waypoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a release date in the trailer just cut off the part that has it and show it.This, in the past, has led to some BAD reactions from the community. Showing us a trailer and than letting us think on it for 2 weeks when we are accustomed to having it 1 week ahead puts people into a sour mood. On top of that, after 2 weeks people aren't thinking about that trailer anymore, so the release of a new story after the little hype around it dies out causes for a less than great release of that story.

We do need to know what's going on. This dev message tells us exactly that.So, thanks for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the while, we fight at the bottom of a whirlpool.(EDIT: Okay, that can actually be pretty kitten epic to fight the DSD in a small area of ground surrounded by roiling water that the dragon's head, claws, etc. pops out of to strike at us.)@yoni.7015 said:The statement doesn’t say anything :-1: It actually says three things.1) they wanted to release trailer today, but won't be2) they won't be due to newly discovered issues that they're currently fixing3) trailer and release date will come when issues are fixed.More likely Lyssa is the next villainPfft, too expected.Besides, they went the route of overly generic god of war with Balthazar. So they'd be more likely to go the route of overly generic never-actually-good-just-neutral god of death going evil, rather than kind and compassionate Lyssa who loved humans suddenly going genocidal.

Ishigama.6487 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hopefully the standards will be to make the Episodes a bit longer and get going of that quality content instead of making even more skins for the shop...It's slowly becoming Gem Wars 2...
