Red Haired Savage.5430 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Kinda funny they gave us the name of the episode already, "On the Horizon" time to speculate. :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless that’s not even why they’re holding off on it. The E3 thing was just player speculation based solely on Anet being a part of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keenedge.9675 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Last time we experienced 'A bug in the system' with spyware ... :open_mouth: (glad for it by the way) 'On the horizon' ... imagine the possibilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only thing I can think of from the post is that they are restructuring the teams and the initial restructure delayed this release but may improve the future releases. But again, there seems to always be that carrot on a stick of, this is setting the groundwork for the future or this will improve the content or content stream. Not flaming, and I can understand how much work goes into these releases, but it’s not like we’ve never heard this before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are still others reasons for delays. From what another poster said, Anet isn’t even scheduled to reveal anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayakaru.6583 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 With the new quality standard, i think just saying _approximately three months_ is a better deal than saying _two to three months_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are still others reasons for delays. From what another poster said, Anet isn’t even scheduled to reveal anything. They may not be. But I doubt they will have a presence there just to attend. They may be using it as marketing for this “upcoming” episode if they aren’t revealing anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I always thought it was 3-4 months, but apparently I'm remembering wrong. And I'm sure I've said this before when a release has been close to/beyond the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren’t they attending it either way? If they aren’t revealing anything what are they going to do besides market the game and talk about living world with a recently released or in progress example to talk about? It’s not so much marketing the episode as it is marketing the game with an example of the content they create to show. Pretty sure they’re attending this year either way.

The rooms are small, so the prediction is that they'll be showing off episode 3 and possibly a raid and fractal to press. (listing, map) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blockhead Magee.3092 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I'm glad they're doing it 'right' vs doing it 'fast'. I'm not unhappy about waiting another month (or whatever the time ends up being). Hopefully their change in approach they mentioned pays dividends on the future releases as they indicated.

Alga.6498 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Thank you Mike (_& Rubi_) for the announcement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybarf Tics.2048 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 We'll tell you as the date gets closer.. That means to me that it's not even close, this mourning I was telling myself, self if they don't release the trailer today it'll mean only one thing, the trailer is on the 5th because of water combat. The announcement at E3 will be about episode 3 and the new underwater combat revival, I was even hoping for our 1st underwater world boss, one can only hope. If this is only a plain episode that was delayed because of the last underwater update, I'll be sorely disappointed. :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDub.1530 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I thought they made clear that the underwater patch wasn't a sign of an influx of new underwater content, just neglected aspect of the game receiving a bit of QoL attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
