I believe “soon” may be on or about the time if EA Play. So a few weeks prior to the event perhaps. I still believe nothing is coming this quarter (paid content) and an expansion could be announced just before EA Play, playable at the event, then released first week of July or August. I am happy to be wrong, but I won’t get my hopes up for any news before the end of May.

I don't see that happen. If they announce the EP just before EA Play and have it playable there, they have almost no time themselves to show us the game via livestreams, blogs and all that stuff. EP's have like 8+ weeks marketing attached to them and if they make it playable at EA Play, they cannot have a solid embargo/NDA.

With thousands of people coming to such events, it's impossible for them to control what info gets out and what stays in. So IF we are getting an EP this quarter, I guess they will announce it within 2 weeks, just to have enough marketing time before the event to promote the EP and tell us more about it. Then they can release it after EA Play in late june.

But we will see.

If they let people play “Seasons” at EA play then a lot of things in it will likely be disabled because it isn’t ready or stable enough yet. Also only few of the developers will likely be there and they know what they can tell and what they can’t tell people.

I think it will almost be finished then. I'm predicting Late June for release.

Unless it is a GP it will surprise me if it is released already that early. My guess for the next EP is October or November.

One thing that still makes me think though; a GP or SP wouldn't make to much sense to me. We had no quarterly teaser and if they are planning on releasing a GP or SP, why didn't we get a Quarterly Teaser? We got it before. The only packs that have never been in a quarterly teaser -Before they got announced officially- were EP's.

So either we are not getting anything in this quarter, or we get the EP.

And another thing that doesn't really make sense to me is; if they announce the next EP at EA Play in June, they aren't going to wait until november to release it. That's just way too long of a wait.

Also a lot of people saying we didn't get a teaser because Drake left; well, she wasn't the only one responsible for the teasers. They knew how the formula of a teaser worked by now, so I guess they could have done it without her too.

Well, EA Play or whatever the announcement is can't come soon enough. Now we're back at the sitting in the dark waiting 2.0 era. meh.

Maybe She is a CM until they find the new one.
