It’s the last day of the month and of course speculation is high about what the SWToR fan’s excitement caught the eye of Bioware and solicited a response from Senior Producer, Bruce McLean: n426g
Stay back, I’m holding a thermal detonator! To answer your question about the expansion announcement:
Soon™! We are holding the announcement back a bit to add delay of announcement has no effect on the expansion schedule, and we are still sticking to our commitment of launching it this year.
Shortly afterwards, Bioware’s community manager, Eric Musco, was also at the forums providing additional details behind the delay
This is a great question (or questions?), that I think are on a lot of folks minds. As you can imagine I can’t go too deep into the rabbit hole in talking about our internal processes but I can give it a go.
In short, the process we go through internally to announce types of announcements, the game!
By the time we announce we have to have a concrete idea of what will be delay of announcement.
I would caution not to read too deep into what I said above. It is somewhere in the cog of those moving parts that this delay happened, but ultimately our goal remains the same: to get you as many details about this expansion as soon as we can!
It appears that we have to wait for a little bit more time until the official announcement is made and until the final touches are complete.
Patience you must have young padawans!
