orrrr.....fixing the bug that was causing Paragon Market crashes if the language was set to German or French.

It can't be that. Zwill must have been pulling a huge prank on us when he stated explicitly that it wasn't coming this week.

Just wait. Any minute now.

They said from Freedom F2P conversion Issues major updates would be more often. Well at least we have some .5 updates between Issues.
2011 saw only 2 Issues, but I understand we are getting a lot of powersets and costumes and stuff...
So I guess it's true? VIPS are getting hosed for content while most of it makes it way to the cash shop maybe I should unsub for a while.

You know this game actually has a history of responding to what other games are doing. For example many people thought that Issue 12 (the one that gave us Cimerora) was rushed out the door a couple of weeks too early but it all made sense when you realized that it went live the exact same day Age of Conan lauched. Clearly our Devs were motivated to get our "swords and shields" update out the same day a Conan-based game went live.

So the idea that they might release Issue 22 next week to counter the possible "massive effect" of the launch of that other new game is not too far-fetched.

Well that would rule out the whole of the forum so who would know to tell you?

Zwizzlestick already told us further back in this thread that it isn't this week. That post was made yesterday.

If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

I really oughtta start paying closer attention to the release schedules of other games. I've always thought that since I wouldn't be buying them, it wouldn't matter, but now that I think about it, I'd always have a better idea of when new issues were hitting, too!

Hmmmm any big games hitting the shelves this summer so we can get an idea for i23?

Edit: Im keeping an eye on the beta patches this week though, curious to see what patches this week happen Best be some patches!

You don't count the mini-Issues in between as content?

Well I was certain I would be a lifetime subscriber to CoH. I also thought Freedom would be great as a VIP. Instead, I cancelled my subscription a couple of months ago and have logged about 10 minutes total as a Premium.

It just feels like there is nothing for me to do in the game any longer. There were some cool new power sets, which I loved, but it was playing the same old stuff plus a new sewer trial. I hate everything about the trials, so those are out.

I have almost 6 years in the game and the longer it goes without something new the less I miss it and the less likely I'll subscribe when a new issue comes out. I have been checking in often to see about i22 and the solo incarnate path, but as weeks go by, I find myself not caring.

All of this makes me sad. I love(d) this game. I really hope they get this out soon and it delivers. I think it is crucial for the company to really deliver on this issue and the next 1 or two.

While the game may have stopped delivering things which kept you interested I don't really think you can say that it stopped delivering things which are keeping other people interested. I don't really mean to sound harsh but this game churns old and new people all the time - the fact that you're not playing it anymore doesn't mean it's on the verge of collapse.

Take care regardless...

It's funny to me to see that after a quarterly report where profits are on the rise again.

But I do like to imagine the rise would have been sharper if new DA had been part of the Freedom launch.

Shame on you guys for raising false hopes with that Facebook post last week. Saying "very soon" but not this week is even worse. Now i'm suspicious it won't be live before Double XP weekend...

Next time, just say "Soon" and reserve the "Very Soon" for if it's going live in the same week you post.

Ugh.

The worst part is, the issue feels like it's just being sat on. AFAIK, the patch on the beta server has no show-stopping bugs that players can see. They haven't adjusted any of the Incarnate progression for weeks. It's just sitting there. They could have gone live with it already, but it feels like someone, oh let's say marketing, is holding i22 back for some arbitrary date instead of giving it to people ASAP.
