At this point, just release/launch the game in Late January please, for all of our sakes - it’ll allow us to reschedule time off and not lose that time.Just announce a Jan 25th launch. Don’t launch this year.If not, we need a new date asap before the majority of us can't reschedule PTO.
it will release november 10th, the game is amolst finish the main problems are balance and 1 month test in beta is enough, this "delay" things its a bait to those spergs who repeat everything what asmongold says
Reforged didn't have a set delivery time frame in its preorder TOS tho.
December 1 or December 8 appear to be the most likely dates to me, with the raid not opening until first week of January.
It would have to be late November to very very early December, they couldn't run the prepatch for that long surely they'd get backlash.
I don't care about the 2020 promise. Just wait till January and launch it.
Late nov early dec imo,no way that they will release it in january
I wish their tuning/changes would lean more towards the actual classes rather than borrowed power but this is just the Blizzard way at this point. So whatever it is they need to do, I just hope this extra time is enough for them to really polish the upcoming systems/gameplay.
I'm going to think anyways you slice it much past the middle of November then it would be better to delay the first raid tier until after January first. It takes pressure off those pushing for realm first, and gives people more of a chance to get leveled and established. With the way things are going I'd almost say regardless of when the expansion drops pushing the first tier to after January 1st would be a win win.
At this point, just make it February and work on it. Only a month or two isn't enough for a delay to have impact.
Launch on December 7. and do the raid opening etc. 4 weeks later on January 5.
Just another example of the Company jumping the gun with the thought of releasing a buggy crappy product but realizing they can't. At this point I've no faith in them and will move onto other games after playing since BC.Later everyone. I hope you still get some kind of enjoyment from the game.
Worst predictions ever XDRemember that USA is only 1 country, noone cares about the elections there, thanksgiving is a long weekend, covid will be in the usa until january/feb.the original release date should have been the 16th of november (or 17th) i wold say that will be the date,raid will open first week of december, the stupid world first race will be over before xmass
So everyone is agreed on December. Now which year?
Usually, in game development, you go through sprints of about 4 weeks. I would imagine if it was so critical to push it from Oct 27 without a release date, they will utilize a full sprint to balance issues, putting the release at 24 Nov. which means if we don't have a release date announcement by the 18th it will most likely use another sprint taking us to Dec 22 and since that is Christmas week, they may try to rush it out a week before or wait a week after putting it at either 15 Dec or 29 Dec...personally, I hope for the 29th no need to rush it, if you are going to delay to deliver a great expac, use all the time needed.
DEAR EVERYONE, this delay will not stop the inevitable bugged unbalanced crap launch that we know blizzard is all too capable of releasing. This delay in fact might have been their worst idea yet. Now they have no leg to lean on when they release shadowlnads and everyone hates the first month of it and quits
