    I WAS misled....into believing that there would be less people whining over and over about details that were never confirmed but speculated by one person and believe by others.

    Tell me again what i mentioned that came from the devs was speculation?

    Fact sledge did say it was finished and they was already working towards the second instalment.

    Fact they have said dlc was slotted for very close to launch release.

    Fact devs did say it was only delayed for bug fixes and issues.

    Fact richardson did say if was being finished up and polished? So other than my asking if this was intentional missleading or rather a incoherent work place what did i speculate?

    If you want to defend them thats fine, but atleast offer a intelligent defence

    Actually I don't see anything wrong with releasing DLC after the TV season one.

    In fact I think it is a good idea we get episode tie ins during the season and DLC outside the season so there is constant fresh content instead of everything at once and then a long period of nothing.

    At 1:36 Nathan Richardsson, Senior VP of Development even says "5 DLCs between season 1 and season 2" ... pretty much sums it up really. I do actually believe it may well have been their intention from the start. Which is fine with me, well played Trion. Its a smart idea and doesn't make me regret my Season Pass one bit.

    To be honest i dont see anything wrong with that myself. my problem is why they couldnt just say that from the start? Instead of the smoke and mirror act. Or the info they have given being so vague and contradictory

    And see thats my point its not that the dlc wont be out untill after season one so be it. And that is a smart move. but the mix matched info and missleading statements that have been giving to keep people here is just wrong and bad buisness.

    If in fact that was thier intention from the start was for it to be after season 1 ended it would have saved alot of outcries to have just been forth coming with that.

    Well if you want to give them the benefit of the doubt, its possible the plan changed at some point... but you are right, we should of been informed of the change. Would of put some minds at rest.

    By them choosing to either use the missleading info. Or by simply just not informing people of the changes. to me it did more harm than good espeacily when so many are already loosing steam with the game.

    Add the wrong handling of info to that and the utter lack of info it will turn alot of people away from the game . Wich sadly could have been avoided with simply telling the truth.

    Why after so many damaging launches from so many different games developers cant seem to grasp this is beyond me. But dosnt realy matter how many times it happens it dosnt make it any less a wrong choice.

    Does anyone stop to think that they may have found some major bugs with it? It is not like you actually often see companies actually admitting to stuff like this either. And we have been given Sieges which are listed as part of the dlc, so that means we have been given something from it early.

    But I agree with the whole thing about the show. We did miss a week which would delay it further, and the plague only, ONLY, just turned up at the end of last weeks episode. They would be hampered with things like that because it is transmedia. We are entitled to what they give us when they feel like giving it to us. And they may very well be releasing everything at 1.7 month intervals. I have no problem with that at all

    Posts like this is exactly why they never give us dates.. because as soon as they miss the date, it's some conspiracy to mislead people into playing the game.

    If you don't like the game, don't play. The updates will come when they're ready.. nobody wants more buggy content that doesn't work.

    Get some perspective.
