Will Whisper in the Dark trailer be released BEFORE the Nov 19 Launch?

[Neo Mortem.3627]

I dont want the trailer to be released the day of the release. So... will it be released sooner? Considering it's two weeks away and we got a release date now instead of like a month before.... idk what to think... What is there to be excited for? A boneskinner? What else?

[Danikat.8537]

I think the trailers are usually included in the official annoucement of the episode, which is usually a week before it's released. That's when we'll get more info about what's included, but for now I'd expect a normal Living World release.

It is usually 2 weeks before release so i expect an announcement anytime today/tomorrow. Yeah, would not get too excited for anything more than a normal living world episode release since we just got a balance patch and a QoL patch.

[Ashantara.8731]

ANet wrote they'd release it sooner if the charity donations exceed 100k USD, which they have.

[LucianDK.8615]

I expect the new ls5 masteries will be unveiled. Maybe or maybe not gen3 legendaries.

I doubt there will be any new mounts, we got enough already.

[FrigginPaco.4178]

My bet is tomorrow

There is still room for 2 more mounts in the mounts panel and then we have 10 different ones.

So i guess an underwater mount at some point but not during this saga and maybe another one for wvw. But thats just my guess.

[Ayrilana.1396]

I’d prefer that we don’t get anymore mounts. They can just add functionality through new skills for the existing ones. My guess is that we may get some cold resistance based on LSE3 and the final instance of the recent episode.

[Ben K.6238]

I don't really see them doing underwater mounts when they didn't even add new underwater legendaries. Seems like underwater content has been quietly sidelined.

[Balthzar.3807]

mark my words it will be put off and not released on the 19th the cause will be the instability of the servers after the templates patch but I believe they are rushing the date so people forget about how utterly badly the templates are and how over priced. I expect the new date to be around christmas

[Ayrilana.1396]

I don’t see why it wouldn’t be released on the 19th. The servers have been fairly stable for the past several days when they got those patches uploaded.

 

“Rushing the date” won’t matter as far as complaints go as players will eventually stop complaining about templates anyway and then move onto the next thing to complain about. After that’s run it’s course, they’ll move onto the next things to complain about.

I'd be fine with just a water one.

 

We don't really need anymore land ones tbh, as you said can just expand on what we already have.

Wasn't this the little reveal video they had showing the date and name of the episode which we had gotten?

 

Anyways I hope they would release the proper episode trailer 1 week in advance like they used to (unlike the prologue one) so I am also guessing on Tuesday. I guess this date also ends the Halloween festival?

[Ayrilana.1396]

Halloween should end tomorrow but I don’t think they’ll release the preview tomorrow as well if the episode releases on the 19th. We’d Likely have to wait until next week for that.

No, throughout LS4 the trailer were published one week or less before launch, except ep 5 (trailer 19 dec, launch 8 jan, so holidays). Those less than a week was ep 4 (6 days) and ep 6 (5 days).

All of the above based on youtube publication dates of the trailers.

Exactly this. They promised Name and Release date early. That they provided these *is the entire reason we're discussing this now*!

Are there going to be gen3 legendaries?

Mere speculation since gen2 is done.

[Astrolicus.3716]

I would be surprised if we get the trailer tomorrow. It could also be November 12, but why wait until November 12? Give us the trailer to hype people ~~so people stop crying about build templates.~~

[Zaklex.6308]

We'll also probably find out something about Drakkar, who won't become a permanent fixture until the following release.

[Eloc Freidon.5692]

Showing the trailer a month ahead doesn't work because people forget. Showing on the day of release doesn't even get watched. How about the weekend before release?

Trailer won’t stop that as they need for there to be something new to complain about. The 19th can’t get here soon enough!
