Squidport release: Thursday 6th June?

I do enjoy that everything from hard logic to odd psychic powers has been used in this thread to predict when the update will be :). Decided to join in by blindly sticking a pin in the calendar as I figure it's as good a method as any!

Pin says it will be June 28th... :D

At the end of Herman's quest Ea hinted that June 30th will be the release of squid port. I hate to be a buzz kill to every one who wanted the update sooner then later but I'm just trying to be honest.

It definitely won't be June 30th. That's a Sunday. It might be that week, but it won't be on the 30th. I'm still going with June 11th-13th. One of those 3 days.

What does they say exaclty in the message about squiport?

It says absolutely nothing about a date or June 30th. Not sure where that came from. It says "sorry about level 30, we didnt think anyone would be playing the game this long, we'll go back to the drawing board and come up with something even better for level 31" or something similar. No dates are mentioned and neither is Squidport.

Sorry, it was the 31st. "31 will be much better". It could be talking about level but my money is the squid port is coming june 31. This is nothing more then an educated gust. Time will tell.

It was clearly talking about the next level. :roll: Plus, there are only 30 days in June, chief.

And there are only 30 days in June, too. :)

Seems Jason beat me to it. :)

Lousy Smarch weather.

Personally I hope its not as soon as the 6th or even the week after. Here's why...

If they keep ramming the updates through at a pace wanted by people who can't wait then they will hit the limit on what they can do far too soon. If you want the game to have an extended life then you need to wait a bit between updates, if they all come at once the game will die sooner.

Excellent choice of words OP. EA will give us a "buttload". :)

Ooh David, I bet your mind entered the gutter

Whatever the date is, I hope it will be soon. Bring on the 6th of June if it is.
Squidport looks good and it is a change of scenery from the normal updates we get.

Nice logic, but missing one piece of vital information.

For the average player (those that do not use donuts to speed up tasks) it will probably be next Saturday/Sunday before most people finish level 30 task sequence. Given some of the chatter on what is stated in one of the final dialogues then it would be reasonable to expect that something big is coming next - which is Squidport! But the catch is EA will want most people to complete level 30 tasks so sorry to say, my guess is Squidport will come the week after. Also given it needs to be a release on App Store (figuring that due to land reconfiguration) then I will say based on prior experience Thursday morning at about 9am my time (Australia - Sydney). That is 13 June for me, 12 June in the afternoon for those in the US.

If not using donuts for speeding up tasks is the qualification point to become an "average player" then I too am an average player :) I personally don't think people having finished level 30 prior to release is relevant to be honest, as new players can start this game up every day, no matter what events or updates are on at the time or due to happen... Just my thought on that :-)

Not to mention that I'm pretty sure Squidport is an expansion that is pre level 30.

I don't really care if it's sooner or later. I still have a ways to go in terms of quests
