First of all, welcome to the Anno community! To avoid any confusion: No, the current Year 3 Complete Edition will not give you access to Season 4.
So you can either get Year 3 Complete and then the Season 4 Pass later, or you could wait for the probable Year 4 Complete Edition coming soon :)
As for the recommendations which DLCs to play first, I will leve that to your fellow players!
I have one phrase: "MONKEY WITH A LIGHTBULB"
#NewWorldElectricity !!!
Or a harmless decoration in our break/ gaming room in the studio :)
I mean you could also sell me the season pass 4 now, then it has not to be next tuesday 👉👈
But I was really excited for us all to discover it in Twitch chat together! 😊
Already exited :) More content to feed my crippling ANNO addiction. Also more money to spent on the the franchise, lol :D
Probably the best 24,99€ (or local equivalent) you will spend next Tuesday!*
*Maybe?
so the teaser trailers get teaser trailers now?
No, the proper Season 4 trailer gets a teaser!
Pinky promise?
No.
Blink once if there is but u cant say
*blinks...twice*?
Admit it, all the numbers when added will make a 9.
Hmm...
They have almost undoubtedly been working on the next one for some time already. All the previous Anno games came out between 29 and 54 months after the previous game. That means almost certainly the next game will be out next year, probably as early as the spring, since April 2023 is exactly 48 months after Anno 1800 was released, and the average time between releases since Anno 1503 (the second of the series) in 2002 has been 42 months.
The longest Time Between Releases was 54 months, between the first (Anno 1602) and second games, and even matching that time frame would bring the next game out by the fall of 2023.
That also means that this Season 4 coming out this year is the last of Anno 1800, at least from the 'regular' Design Team.
Keep in mind that for every other Anno game, the post-launch support ended roughly 1 year after launch. With the announcement of Season 4, you know that Anno 1800 will be supported for at least 3 1/2 years after launch, which obviously takes team ressources that were not needed for the previous games.
None.
Is it just me, or does anyone hate when there are announcements for announcements? Not only Ubisoft, but other companies as well.
It would probably be a bad idea not to announce a live stream in advance and to just hope that people are randomly on Twitch at the right time to see it :)
How much does a newly released season pass cost usually, does anyone know?
I would probably set aside your currency's equivalent of around 24,99€, to be on the safe side.
Given that they are a huge studio and dont rely on delivering to make a profit, they can prolongue the development of a project without costing more by moving talent and resources to bigger projects, while a longer development circle might mean higher costs for small/medium companies, ubisoft has become a factory and these economic rules work different when you are that big, i might be wrong but that how i see it
What did I just read?
you forgot the trademark...
Soon™
Well, we said it will be in late March, so it is actually real “soon”, not Valve Time Soon ™️
Today is March 15. It's mid March. What comes after mid March? Why, late March of course! And tomorrow is after today. Therefore, by virtue of my totally impeccable logic, tomorrow is late March! So we get info tomorrow, yes? :D
Hope springs eternal.
Is it time?
Soon.
is it a teaser?
Only you can say! Did you feel teased? If so, it was a teaser :)
