Issue 22...
To be fair, all it said was that they're not launching "with" I22. I haven't seen any confirmation that Staff isn't coming this month. So unless I missed something, all we know for sure is:
- Staff Fighting isn't part of I22 and never has been. (Because it's a purchasable, you-can-only-use-it-if-you-buy-it-from-the-market powerset and not part of any specific issue any more than Titan Weapons or Street Justice were.)
- It wasn't mentioned one way or another in War Witch's letter in which she outlined, in somewhat vague and non-specific terms, the planned releases for March.
FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.
I don't blame you, they only said that constantly multiple times.

Unfortunately, Staff mastery or new iTrials/slots are the only things that might get me interested enough to actually bother to play the game instead of [Redacted]

It's really going to be a tough decision for me. I mean, legitimately so.
On the one hand, it's the Darkness Control powerset (and porting of Dark Miasma into Dark Affinity) for controllers that I've wanted since 2005 or so.
On the other hand, it's Mass Effect 3.
Tough choices.

GG, I would tell you that "I am killing you with my mind", but I couldn't find an emoticon to properly express my sentiment.

Game and Gamestation are both one and the same (GAME own Gamestation), I never mentioned gameplay..... (I *DID* mention Play.com however!)

Apparently it was a part of the parent group GAME too along with gamestation and gameplay. There goes my N7 pre-order!, I've had to resort to ebay prices.

I was led to believe that at least Staffs would be in i22, because it is available in i22 Beta. Why would I think something on i22 Beta wouldn't go to live with the rest?

The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.
Understood although as stated they always said it was not coming out with I22 launch. In your defense Staff seems like its been ready on Beta for about four weeks now and the holding back of it seems totally artificial.

The Leprechaun pet is ready, but it's going to be released around Saint Patrick's Day - and the lion pet is also ready to use, but it won't be available until its scheduled release date.

They have a release schedule for everything in the market - it doesn't matter when it's ready to use.

Bah...
I knew Staff Fighting wasn't included with Issue 22 but I was still hoping for it to be released the following week.
I was so hoping to roll my new Staff fighter in the wave of new toons being made during DxP... Drats.
With no interest in the other offerings, aside from a passing glance in DA...
Meh. Wake me when Staff finally comes to market.

Never saw that news until tonight. Never saw anything about it on the forums. They were coy on Ustream about when(aka they didn't say)
I was led to believe that at least Staffs would be in i22, because it is available in i22 Beta. Why would I think something on i22 Beta wouldn't go to live with the rest? Staffs look compete, and not thrilled it's not a part of i22. As this point it;ll be left out until after Double Xp weekend. |
It's also not something that would be that big a deal even once it hits live. You still get the awesome powerset same time everyone else does.
By the way staff fighting stalkers are freakin amazing. No seriously try one out (on beta if you can't wait!) you'll love it.
you could have it all

I figure as long as Beast Mastery and Staff Fighting drop before 2xp weekend (which I REALLY think they will), I'm a happy camper.

Bah for my taste one week too late. ME3 has priority. Drowngraded my account to premium again.
Not playing until the 2exp weekend and the better release staff fighting next week or
And a release on the 6th gives us JUST enough time to get settled in before the double XP weekend later in March.
I believe I will squee...
