Hopefully it's Star Wars related.

I am a big fan of SG-1...

I agree. Unfortunately not everyone else will. The amount of hate and abuse we got for moving things around in the past...I don't want the team subjected to that.

I don’t know why you write comments like this when it is not only unnecessary (no one is empathizing with DICE at the moment, lol; accept it), but not even “true”, considering that other developers also make announcements far in advance AND stick to their planned release-schedules. Obviously I can understand that unforeseen shit happens and sometimes content will be delayed by even the best developers, but DICE has clearly built themselves a reputation of f**king things up (in the eyes of the gaming community) constantly

Destiny 2 just bumped back a major expansion.

Dates shift ALL the time, 90% of the time you just don't know about it because the original date wasn't detailed publicly.

The Gamescom CT? So we’re not getting an earlier CT before Gamescom detailing the August update?

I hate to be that guy, but do you have a source for that?

We are combining all news into one CT.

Part of the parcel with announcing content so early. Things can and will shift around. This is the development way and there's no changing this.

We'll look at giving you a heads up ahead of time.

I'd really like to.

So to clear things up, the CT is for the August update, and Gamescon will be a separate thing, or is there two CT’s? I’m kinda confused lol

It's one CT

alright, hand over the CT and i'll judge it, don't worry, i won't leak it to anyone.

Would you say it's at least comparable to the other 2? Do you think it's close?

Yes.

If you had to compare:

  • EA play CT

  • Where are those crashed speeders CT

  • August CT

in what order would you place them? Or how would you compare each one?

Will let you be the judge of that.

really hoping that the offline playerbase won't be disappointed.

Gamescom you'll find out what's coming this month (and more). Update is targeted for a week later.

Gamescom happens this month so it's safe to assume that we will be making announcements there.

You play what you enjoy. If you don't enjoy the game, while regrettable I'd never try twisting your arm.

I'd be hopeful that over the coming months you'll have reason to login and play. Thanks for being a part of the community.

But seriously I’m guessing more content. It’ll probably be something cool but can they please fix the game first

Millennium Falcon 4

Can we call it Millennium Falcon IV? I like a good roman numeral.

The problem isn't so much the credit payout, but the length of the game.

We're working on some changes to CS which should stop 2 hour games from happening. Once the matches have an average time of completion more in line with what we'd like, that gives us a more stable foundation to make any changes to credit payouts.
