i'm just wondering if its supposed to launch end of July as stated on E3 why isnt that been officially confirmed here or on the website ... i'm starting to think it will be released later
what do you think, is there still a chance it will come soon and would you appreciate more communication? i mean even negative (delay) announcements would be still better for me than knowing nothing at this point
EDIT:
here's a theory by dude26212 from another thread:

they still have 2 weeks untill the deadline.. 14 days is a long time and should give them ample time to get it ready.
I heard its coming out after the PS5 & XBOX TWO are being released in 2025.
They still feel the need to do yet another re-run of the old content , i think they are calling it welcome home for the summer catch up thing FFS !!!!
Get the DLC out already !!! , me and a lot of players have spent our hard earned cash on the DLC , collectors game ect .
And yet we are still getting old content OMG Xmas is only 5 month's away :)
I don't think that we'll see the dlc this month. Why? Lack of advertisement.
Fixed.Quote:

Sadly, this.Quote:

The total lack of any communication with the DLC means it most likely got pushed back yet again.

Hope all 5 players still left playing, enjoy that 5th DLC.
Agreed, the last news about dlc was Myll_Erik stated that they only had to set a date with Sony and MS, it seems that the setting date procedure is very very long, or Myll_Eryk said shtako.Quote:

It's a fact, they said 5 dlc will be released between season one and season two.Quote:

We shall see...
On the day it's released and just after the crashes, emergency patches, rollbacks, second emergency patch because the lockboxes give all oranges for an hour or two, that roll back, then the crash because the emergency patch introduced new bugs, then the emergency patch for that.... and a week of lag filled play will I believe that the DLC is here.
Amen to that. Shame really. This game had a lot of potential. But in reality, it's just a failure.Quote:

sucks the pc users will be able to play a beta version of the dlc here in a week or two. but the console guys dont. so when the forums blow up from all pc guys saying the dlc is here. its not. trion is using them to spot/notice an bugs, crinkles, etc. then theyll launch it. so just pay attention for that. then youll have an idea of when.
You guys are neglecting the though that PERHAPS. They are working to complete all the DLC before they start releasing it. Would make sense in the long run no? They'd be prepared to Release their DLCs at certain times during the next 12 months till the second season comes out. Probably what they're doing I think.
the hell is this theory of "Lack of advertisement"? ...Only DLC's i ever see advertised have been COD and Halo.
Can we at least wait until the END of July to complain please? Dragon's Keep wasnt announced as the 25th of June until E3. Granted, that was a finite date, but we didnt get ads, we didnt get much footage other then E3 play... Defiance was @ E3, they showed Sieges + Castithans, they said End of July... Until then theres no need to get mad, or cut them down...
If August 1st hits and no DLC, Im right behind the haters on the ***** & moan trains. But until then, chill. simple.
If the DLC was coming in two weeks we'd know it. It'd be plastered all over the website, all over Massively and MMORPG.com and IGN and GameSpot; they're not just going to release a DLC out of nowhere with no warning at all besides a few off-the-cuff statements from E3.
Its looking more and more that my bet for it -not- releasing in July is safe money. Im so looking forward to pay out :)
When the game was release that was already the case.Quote:

Apple box. ..
Lulz.
Though a random thought, what if they're combining dlcs to offer more content?
If they did that they could be held in breach of contract or false advertising for those who already bought the season pass. So no I doubt that.Quote:

He said they would give more info in next few weeks on whether they would/could do this. He also stated they would be able to give a firm date on dlc in next week or so. So with 2 weeks left in month, a ptr test coming in 1-2 weeks, Official release date announcement coming in week or so.....
I can no longer hold out hope of getting the DLC before August. I just hope after 5 months it turns out to be something really special.
I think its commin out this month.
Trion has their issues...but to push back their first (and badly needed) DLC would be incredibly stupid....
I hope it's coming out soon. I'm about a week away from finishing all the content.
I posted this and they shut my thread down. I m thinking the same thing.Quote:

I've been made to sit through far worse then this.
I'm about a week from sitting this game on the shelf for a few months until they unjack themselvesQuote:

I'd be interested to see how in depth they go with the Character creation for Castis, I want to know what my character will look like once I race change. I've wanted to be Casti since the show came out, but I am a patient man.Quote:

Trion: "When it's ready. In the meantime, watch us hold a Casti blade with our Castithan."
lol, nice.
Yes I think that's why were are glitching now..... Let's get it out of the way now and not with DLC (a new character and weapon for $10) arrives.
