@WaterThornz Thank you for sharing this with us.

As @DonPanTriste said, he replied that the "presentation upgrades" are just UI changes, which is pretty disappointing, in my opinion. I mean there isn't much the team could have done in one month, but still.

I am actually quite surprised they are making changes to the Upgrades.

I hope they somehow will release all of the finished customizations that are in the files. Most of them were apparently planned for the next 2 prize maps. There are also a lot of Cactus recolors which I would like to see.

As for the surprises that bring a mix-up:

I think they could be reintroducing mixed modes with Gnome Tag included.

They have finished the gnome tag character months ago and I think they could be including a Team Vanquish mode with just those characters.

Maybe they will also include the Minion Swarm Character-only modes.

I honestly don't think these surprises will be big.

Even a currency conversion system seems unlikely to me, although everybody has been asking for it since the beginning.

All I wanted was Iceburg Lettuce. The character would even fit his description of the update being "about the Upgrades". Iceburg Lettuce would have had so many cool upgrades.

I think it is also quite sad that we haven't gotten the promised further statements yet. It seem like the next and last official communication we'll receive will be the patch notes. I also wonder why they said the announcement could change, when EA clearly had no intentions of approving further development. And then they even sent out surveys to a few select players without a reason. Sigh.
