What the title line says. Has it not happened yet, or did I just completely miss it?

This led some commentators to claim that perhaps September is finally over.

Just thought I might have overlooked it, apparently not though.

I am confused as to what I want. I want the same, just improved here and there.

Which sounds more like DW2 than an expansion.

Yes but we will still be expected to pay present day prices though

I think a loyalty price should be put in for those of us who have brought all DW+ the xp packs to be honest, but there is more chance of my hair growing back ...

The price and graphics mean nothing to me; it's whether or not the AI is improved sufficiently. That's all I care about

One thing I would like to see is the Silvermist turn into a giant space troll when it gets big enough.

Something wrong, that you have such unhealthy interest to trolls...

I would prefer a giant space Ogre...big and green with antennae-like ears...

Yes we know Elliot and consorts failed their own deadline for a sneakpeak. Lets punish them by burning our DW copies forever...

Or just hope that working on the game 24/7 was more important than posting here. Though this event seems rather unlikely... at least the 24/7 part.

Sorry everyone, I meant to post yesterday but things have been very busy. There will be news in October, but we are a bit behind the schedule I originally planned on, so the announcement is not yet ready. Some of the new features have taken quite a bit of work and I think you will be happy with the release, but we will only announce more information when we're ready to share something that is close enough to complete to be more meaningful. That means sometime in October, but unfortunately not yet.

Regards,

- Erik

I'm relatively new to these forums. How have these announcements worked in the past? Do they announce an update at the same time they release it? Or do they merely give a future date on which an update will be released?

EDIT: Also, where in these forums did they say an announcement would be coming in September?
