Sneaking in the Relic Delta announcement right in the 10th Anniversary post

Brilliant move — sneaking in the Relic Delta announcement right in the 10th Anniversary post.

Is CG seriously trying to distract us from this steaming pile of garbage that's probably going to screw over multiple game modes? Because clearly, gameplay mechanics, skill, mods… none of that matters anymore. What really counts now is how fat your wallet is to buy those shiny new relics

  • It was pre-communicated before the anniversary update so not sure how this classifies as sneaking. Unless you missed all previous conversations about it?

    Ah, you're right, my bad. 

    Clearly, if something was mentioned in the fine print of a forum post weeks ago, then it’s totally fair game to bury it in the middle of a ‘celebration’ post. That’s not sneaky at all — it’s just ... strategic opacity. Thanks for the clarification !!

    They announced it months ago. Would hardly call that sneaking.

    Please explain how the thread linked below is "fine print".

    It's ok to admit you haven't been paying attention

  • Bore off.

    This timing was told to us weeks ago.

    Maybe if you tried reading before posting you would have known this.

    Do yourself a favour and stop embarassing yourself.

    They corrected you and you wouldn’t even consider the fact you’re wrong.

  • I took it as the other way around.   'We're getting a poo sandwich (Relic Delta) everything else has been garnishing to make the poo taste better'.  How willing are you to eat the poopy sandwich, with more and more good stuff added?  I'm sure of it.  They're adding so much extra stuff, in the hope that the players let it slide.  This for me is my last day, I'll take a month off in boycott (shame I miss all the good free stuff) then see how I feel about Relic Deltas in a month's time.

  • While I disagree with the sneaky thing since they mentioned it awhile ago. I do believe the relic delta could be the death of this game. It's going to be nothing but a blatant cash grab. Just like omicrons, khryos, gear 12+ , relics , GLs , conquest , the 10 new characters every single month and everything else. I understand needing to finance your game but when you put 98% of the game behind a paywall and/or 5 year grind for 1 toon you're going to chase off a lot of people.

    Weeks, months, depends on how cagey you want to get about semantics.

    On mobile, it's hard for me to see if there's an exact date for this post : Community Check-In | EA Forums - 12648920

    but Ahnald's video talking about it is date September 24th. That's nigh on two months ago. Getting only as specific as the calendar month IS two months ago. It's not wrong to say 'months.'

    There has been discussion all over the internet for this whole time. They were very up fromt that they were going to add this. Is anyone happy about it? Probably not. Sneaky? Also no.
