    Season pass and DLC, will they meet their goal?
    So as those of us that per ordered and even those that ordered after release. Trion promised those with the Season Pass that they would get 5 DLC "patches" by the end of the year.

    Simple question:
    Do you think they will meet that promise of the Season Pass content by the end of the year?

    If they do not should those that ordered receive a full refund for not meeting that promise?

    I don't think it was promised by the end of the year.

    I think theyll meet this or be very close to the april 2014 deadline they promised (it wasnt end of 2013). If they dont i dont think they should refund though as youll stoll get the content you paid for, just maybe a few weeks off the intended date.

    Btw the reason i understand they pushed back thiz first dlc is to fix the issues ingame. Now in time the game will run better and better so i imagine we wont see many more push backs.

    From what was said at E3 (at least the 2 videos I saw), looks like all 5 will hit by the start of season 2 of the show (or close to that). They keep saying they have an "aggressive schedule" for the DLC.

    Keep in mind that these DLC's can consist of whatever they want. They can give you a top hat & an arkfall with a different color bug & call it the DLC. That's what they'll do to keep their schedule if they have to. You'll get your DLC alright... Whether you want it or not.

    Actually, it's 'within 12 months'

    I have a source.

    So count your fingers, when the day hits that 365 days (is it a leap year?) has passed, if it hasn't been delivered, watch the biggest storm amass...

    Given the current rate........I'd have to agree with that.

    If they actually manage to get DLC 1 out the door in July they would have to pretty much release 1 dlc per every other month.

    1. July
    2. September
    3. November
    4. Janurary
    5. March

    Then they would be within the deadline of Between Season 1 and 2 assuming that Season 2 itself would/will start in April of 2014.

    So totally wish I could get a refund on the pass. I dont think the game will live long enough for all of the DLCs.
    I dont remember any other MMO having a launch as prolonged a crappy launch as this. Yes most have had rocky starts and bugs, but at least in game there is community and content this game has neither at this point. I really wish it did. I like the game I just need a better content in game.

    The DLC will release before Season 2. Unfortunately . . .

    No one will be playing it anymore, at least on consoles, and it will be rushed and include EVEN MORE bugs.

    Hahahahahahaha, 5 DLCS by the end of the year. So.............. its already month 6, with 6 more to go. We will be getting the first DLC 4 months after game launched. So what? They intend to release 5 DLCS in 5 month period? LMAO. I doubt they've even started on the 2nd DLC. So no, I doubt the will meet any goal for anything.

    It's only been.......what........3 months I think so far?
    That still still gives them almost 9 months if my timing is correct.
    It's close.....but if they keep their act up they may be able to make that 1 year period.
    However the new consoles will be in the market.......and the lack of backwards compatibility will be a major negative factor for the console gamers.
