Please Dev's tell us one thing and one thing only !!!

When the timer ends is there a patch or do you Dev's just reveal what will happen in may ?
It's a small gesture off asking so people finally stop bragging about it !!!

    When the timer ends, a new lock box will be introduced that has the chance of granting the special prize-a romulan lock box that could reward a d'deridex. Yes, tell your friends you heard it from me first. The announcement is about a lockbox within a lockbox.

    I'm hoping for just an announcement, not a patch. Any content that's coming should get shoved onto Tribble first so we can test it, allow us to give feedback, and then have the content be released on Holodeck without the suggested fixes from those of us doing testing there.

    They said it won't be a patch or season 8. So probably a big announcement and maybe season 8 on tribble.

    Likely, but I guess they may not tell us....

    It'll probably be the announcement of the Tribble test weekend for the next "too big to be called a season" season. Either that or a count down to another count down.:D

    My personal guess is that the announcement will be an actual full on Romulan Expansion with a price tag and shiny bits in the c-store.

    A lot of F2P games do this and I think STO needs to as well. Get back into adding on races/story/entire sectors and really expanding on the game.

    If it turns out to just be a season with a few Romulan Story missions and a c-store ship I think everyone will rage. :eek:

    think if they will bring out a new faction before a KDF fix they will rage, but to be serious if they start selling maps and sectors I think I will quit already buying enough junk around the C-Store last year also this year. I'm not going to buy mission packs or sectors or maps for that Mather ....

    They already make enough as it is....

    Of course there will be a patch. It's Thursday. There's a patch almost every Thursday.

    As for the countdown it's obviously just an announcement, where they begin leaking details.

    I can tell the difference between March and May.

    No, if that were true then the announcement would be about the upcoming announcement about the lockbox within a lockbox.

    You'll just have to tune in to find out. Although, I have responded to multiple threads stating that the day and time the countdown ends is purely coincidence when it relates to it being a Thursday, a patch day, PAX being that weekend, anything else you can think of related to that day, etc. :)

    But what astrological sign with it be? Are their any elections? Any Catholic holidays? What's the status of the Middle-East? Pagan celebrations? Ancient Indian burial grounds? The spring equinox? The alignment of the planets?!?! Someone get me NASA!!! :eek::eek:

    This is how I imagine things.... First, too bad Brian's office is not in Los Gatos with the rest of them... so he can join in on the fun....but you know they are all standing around the water cooler or someone's desk getting a huge kick out of this.

    When the countdown ends, a new countdown starts. But to see it you have to pay 100 zen each time you want to look at it.

    No such things as "coincidence". :P


    But we surely know the countdown is for an announcement or reveal, because there is nothing big on Tribble. And there is the second Neverwinter Beta (which STO lifetimers are invited) this weekend, which means if there was new content in STO, it would be distracting from the NW Beta Testing.

    Wait until Thursday and then wait another month for it to 'actually/physically' happen. BTW, save every useless component in the game because it will then be sort after. It is probably some new crafting they makes common tribbles give you 5000k dilthium through a doff mission...

    well, in good ole cryptic fashion, we will probably end up with just the "official" name of the season that is not a season.. and from that point on, they will start playing "ring around the rosie" with us.. releasing little annoying tidbits in dev blogs that take ten minutes to read and all you find out is that someone was able to count to ten.. lol..

    seriously, i would have to say that most of the players on this game are adults, and adults like being suprised, but not jerked around.. if you have info, stop releasing it in puzzle pieces, id rathre wait an extra week and not know that you have somehting, than hear everyone in the forums speculate and fight over eachothers speculations lol..
