We already know about: * February: Lunar New Year * April: Mini Adventure Box * June: Dragon Bash * August: Festival of the Four Winds * October: Halloween * December: Winsterday So I wouldn't be surprised if the future shows: * September 2019: prologue * October 2019: Halloween * November 2019: World Boss event * December 2019: Wintersday * January: 2020: new release part 1 (with a third of a new map) * February 2020: Lunar New Year * March 2020: the WvW event we had a while ago * April 2020: Mini Adventure Box: * May 2020: new release part 2 (with the second third of the new map) * June 2020: Dragon Bash * July 2020: Champion event * August 2020: Festival of the Four Winds * September 2020: new release part 3 (with the last third of the new map) * October 2020: Halloween * November 2020: Meta Events event * December 2020: Winsterday We would thus end the year with new content making a total of one new map, split in three releases. Plus a ton of _oh so exciting_ returning events and festivals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acheron.4731 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I honestly just want to know if NEW ELITE SPECS are MEANT TO BE APART of living world content or not. If an expansion is a minimum of 18-24 months out (which 'not off the table' implies) is there any plans of adding THIS PARTICULAR 'EXPANSION LIKE' CONTENT or not? Please feel free to reply in any language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still not sure if festivals are included in their "monthly excitement" plan. What I am sure of though, is that the majority of the playerbase doesn't find years old copy-pasted festivals exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I was disappointed in the announcement on the 30th, this view is much more pessimistic than reasonable. The boss rush and similar events have been consistently happening during the same months as holiday events and LW releases. It is obvious that they are not intended to take up entire months by themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t understand why they didn’t mention all of this during the big presentation at the Moore theater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
