You're so cool... wow.

Lol if anyone is feeling bad about the patch being delayed, look at some of those "known issues" and you won't feel bad.
The update unless fixed is literally unplayable lol.

The title of this thread aged like milk within the span of under an hour and something about that is very funny to me
6 -
I wonder since this chapter got delayed til next week if we'll actually get the changes that everyone has been wanting for Trickster, cause I was ready to take lots of L's tomorrow.
1 -
How is it "delayed" if they never gave a release date?
0 -
We can only hope.
There is potential in the killer and I hope they finally realized that the community could see it, and are making changes to let that happen.

It’s been delayed

What does this mean?
3 -
Where has this been confirmed?
0 -
Update was never given an official release date but people assumed that it would drop 3 weeks after the PTB as usual. Now people are upset that it's confirmed to release next week because they're so caught up in their own presumptions that they're complaining it was "delayed".
2 -
Presumptions are okay when they are logical. Relax everyone that is all about the "they never confirmed a date".
2 -
Man I'm so gutted, it's the only thing I've had to look forward too. I'd honestly rather they released another buggy mess than delay it another week.
1 -
ITS NOT DELAYED! They never gave a release date. Your assumptions are on you, and you alone.

me too... had 1.8 m bps ready to go, was gonna try to get his adept asap.
now I just prestiged clown...
1 -
what? isn't it obvious?
0 -
Why are you trying to make me feel bad when I was hyped for the PROBABLE release date
Get over yourself
5 -
Again, your assumptions are YOUR assumptions, it's on you.
0 -
Ah yes how dare I think that the release schedule they almost always follow would be what they follow this time
DNI anymore please
3 -
Some of you need a reality check man. Yikes.

Those known bugs though holy #########..
0 -
Please try applying some maturity. Your assumptions are your own, BHVR never announced a release date, so please stop trying to argue with me about your own error. You have stated your self "Almost Always", so...NOT always, hence, wait till BHVR give a date and stop assuming.
0 -
Hey, read what I say

Too tired for ######### like this
I repeat, DNI

Yet, you keep continuing it? (Yes, I am aware this is a slightly immature reply)

Yup

tell me i didn't see it was delayed and it's out next week. please :(
0 -
Its not delayed, it was never announced to be out tomorrow.
Also, no one said it would be out next week either, all we know is its not this week, the 30th hasn't been confirmed either.
0 -
Yeah i know it's not "delayed" but "delayed" from expectations. As for the past 5 years DLC dropped 2-3 weeks after PTB so it was safe to expect it this tuesday.
Like you said maybe it's not even next tuesday. I wish we knew why it's taking longer to be released in comparaison to old DLC. Like what are the bugs that they need to fix or if it's an agreement issue with consoles, etc. At least that give us all time to participate in the Cosmetic Contest !
2 -
why would you ever want to play on that garbage map?both killer and survivor
0 -
There is generally a set time between the PTB and the update. Usually always is, so this is a delay.
0 -
Have you the tweet or something where it was confirmed for next week?
0 -
I think its dumb that they would nerf trickster but other than that chapter is looking dope
