yesterday. (they are late). the release candidate is in the founder server they are fixing the last things.
They should releaes early this day or next week. They need a lot of time in reserve if something goes terribly wrong. And as it is the biggest patch they ever did, they need even more time to fix unforseen consequences.
As Veldoran already said, this trailer was made during the development process. And yeap,you know how much money founders bumped in the EC and we have to look at this freaky movie?Behaviour promises the release in summer 2016 with grapihcs which couldn`t compete with ingame trailer of MMO of 2011. Really,do u think this is normal?
It is not that bad = Planetside 2 under Sony went full suicide, game got like 2 weapons per faction and two "useless" vehicles in 3 years, only to get sold to Daybreak... Daybreak totally changed the road and game is worth time again. So, not always. And never forget, Graphics arent that bad, and games are not only about graphics - Look at Failbisoft or FailEA or Failctivision. Graphics nice but gameplay without care in the world. And when you count all the people logged here on the forums and than do some "average" number of founder packs sold... its not that high, if you imagine how big EC project is for not such a big studio. Even what we have now is sometimes more than major companies can bring. Chill, just play Overwatch or BFG Armada and wait... There is GW always watching as well =( EDIT: I wanted to add to the Planetside 2 = Nice graphics, textures etc... of course - but if you look closer = Game is missing some basic animations from release, practically models in that game are only Buildings and trees and few vehicles, netcode is still dead to this day, 64bit servers came in until recently after Daybreak takeover, hitoboxes are totally mixed up as well.. there you have it...
Actually they don't care about graphics either. Yeah their pre-release "ingame" trailers are amazing but when their games come out they are downgraded to the max. The only people who can make nice graphics (and gameplay to accommodate with them) are CDProjekt.
CDProjekt, Blizzard and Bethesda (Even though they had few fails during their existence but they always found a way to "excuse" themselves, otherwise EA, Ubi, Acti arent even trying and the nightmare that Activision-Blizzard are part of one company... I still dont understand..)
I remember that Witcher 3 had some downgrades, but not so drastic, because Consoles wouldnt allow more, but than they released some packs or mods for PC version and that fixed it. Okay, thats it, back to the topic. ADDED: Thats my biggest fear... we have problems with current development of few things in EC... I am scared more of what do they plan to do with consoles... those toasters...
What irks me with current Blizzard is that they just keep doing that cartoon style they keep going at. I mean compare Diablo 2 and Diablo 3, they are graphically different. I miss their gritty, grimdark style... You mean witchERcraft? Anyways back to topic: QA STRIKES AGAIN!
