With so much being shuffled around due to a title update, I feel like I’ve missed somewhere what this is supposed to include? Do we know what the title update content and changes are and why so much is being shuffled around because of it? Sorry if I’m just blind on this.

The speculation is it'll contain the Data Datacrons that were leaked.But nothing definitive has been said.We won't know until it is released.

Considering the complete lack of communication (sorry, one post a week) that we've had since Doja left and Crumb went on paternity leave, were you really expecting any communication whatsoever?

Considering the complete lack of communication (sorry, one post a week) that we've had since Doja left and Crumb went on paternity leave, were you really expecting any communication whatsoever? I'm sure meathead has done what he could. He's been active and trying to engage with the community - at least as much as he's able to. They don't really let the CMs give out any meaningful information except in small doses and usually when an update or change is imminent, with a few exceptions. This isn't really new - not that I love their MO, but Doja being gone and Crumb being on leave hasn't really affected how much information that we're getting.

I don't know, with all that has been going on, it sure feels as if not one of the issues gets actually commented on by CG. It sure feels as if the communication has reached an all time low.

Moving GAC and TW schedules all but confirms datacrons.

So I’m kinda confused. I was expecting datacrons today because of the delays. However, it now looks like it’s next week which is two days after a tb starts and the same day conquest starts. Thought the whole purpose was to avoid introducing the title update while other events were running.

The purpose was to move the PVP events out of the way, because datacrons are PVP oriented. And Conquest was moved because it will (potentially) reward datacrons.

well the leak did mention people were suppose to obtain datacrons from existing game modes, and i think the first location to get datacron will be conquest

With today's update being so minor, I don't understand why we are not doing a tb right now.

Sometimes I wonder if @CG_Tusken_Meathead is actually a community manager. Because he barely talks to the community. Nothing like Doja.

he's off today but he's very active in discord

Why discord and not here? Is this not the official forum?

He talks about food or other non-game related stuff on discord, if you want to talk about bagels in Off-Topic sub forum, go ahead, he’ll show up i’m sure

So the lack of communication is intended. They have plenty of time to communicate, but they intentionally keep us in the dark. Good to know.

Plenty of communicate like what?

They must have created the idea of datacrons quite a while ago. They have been working on it for weeks or months. They had a testing group to fine tune the concept. There was even a leak about it.

So why do they wait with a Road ahead until the update is (almost) live and the fact, that they implement it into the game has already been datamined? Isn't the idea of a road ahead to tell us what to expect to come in the near future?

Wasn't the last Road Ahead predominantly a recap of the few weeks preceding it?

Yeah, felt like they turned around and looked at the road from the wrong way. If they had called that post a "state of the galaxy" it would have been more accurate.

Yeah, this one probably will be too.

I think we just need to come to terms with the fact that they have no interest in telling us what’s coming, it obviously hasn’t shown any impact on revenue, so it serves no purpose.

Well we asked them to stop lying to us. So they stopped it.

So a game company pays a guy to chat about food? Amazing.
