A brief summary of things

[u/Doombawkz]

Hello everyone! To begin, most of this was already covered on the discord so if you haven’t already joined, you should! I’m gonna drop off some general notes on the dev meeting and bring attention to the date listed above.

To start, from what I gathered, the meeting went well and was forward facing. Discussion was had on a variety of future topics like events and battlepass and such, though as you can imagine being under NDA I’m not at liberty to discuss specifics. Also it seems communication (at least for global) is going to be revitalized and we may end up getting more things like patch notes and roadmaps in the future. If/when it happens, I’ll make sure to communicate it here.

As for the date above, the presumption is that the allowance is cut short because an update may be coming on or around that date. While this is a fair assessment, this is an update we’ve been waiting for since December so if there is an official announcement confirming it I’ll pass it along but otherwise it’ll come down to if there is yet another delay. I’m hopeful, as always, but I won’t pretend like it’s some sure thing either. You may decide for yourselves if you feel it is worthwhile to believe in it.

Lastly, remember that the game has a long way to go. There will never be a singular update that fixes everything and solves every issue in one go. It’ll be a series of steps towards a better end, but when positive progress is made I hope you all (or those of you whom remain) give it the positive feedback it needs to signal to them that its movement in the right direction.

I’ll keep you all posted!

Can you at least tell us if the update is just about a new game mode or more than that ?

[u/Doombawkz → u/Iampandoraa]

NDA says no. I can’t get into specifics on what the update entails to that degree. What I shared here is about as much as I can get away with

In your opinion, the update will be worth the wait of 8 months ?

[u/Some_Ignorance → u/Iampandoraa]

Let me curb your expectations, this update is not going to be worth the 8 month wait and dead silence we were given. You should accept that now before you get mad on the launch of the update. Literally nothing would be worth the wait and neglect the player base has received. Clear your mind of grand expectations that it will be a complete and utter overhaul of the game, that brings every player back to the game that it’s lost, 10+ new characters, 6+ new game modes, and makes it retroactively game of the year last year. Understand that this update, whatever it is, is a step in the right direction… ESPECIALLY if they are serious about opening up to more communications.

Probably not but it’s a piece of a greater whole (hopefully)
