Is Tomorrow the day?
" We’ll be sure to follow up on this early next week. "
Is the event going to be released tomorrow? What do you think?

Nah they would've announced it by now if it were tomorrow. They still need to send out the certificate which takes a few days, and we don't even know if they've fixed all the bugs yet.

They usually announce things around 11 AM- 2 PM
And you cannot fix every bug

Enough to the point that it's at least playable. You and I both know the patch will be riddled with bugs anyway following BHVRs track record.
12 -
Yeah, but they seemingly are dedicated to this
It will be riddled with bugs, but not likely as many

It's either early week or the next week. They don't release stuff on say, a Friday incase it needs an urgent hotfix. They don't work weekends I'm pretty sure

Could be... The event Banner is already in the Xbox store

I hope so. Maybe i can play nurse without the need to disconnect because my ability gets bugged because of a grab bug.

Not on my Xbox...

I'm going to be super disappointed if the event isn't tomorrow. It seems to me like the new patch wasn't even close to being done and they set the date way too early.

The update isn't coming before November 5th, and it could even be coming out November 12th.
1 -
I'm sorry, but it's not coming tomorrow.
2 -
Any source? That’s some precise date you dropped 😉

######### I forgot they have to get it recertified for consoles. It's not going to be tomorrow then. FFS. Wish they just released stuff when it was ready for pc like they used to.
7 -
no sources, just pure speculation :)

Maybe its not in any country. This was posted a few hours ago.

I changed my console from Germany to US. Nothing, but I think the guy who took this picture have the game pass. I don’t have it.

to be perfectly honest i think they will release it on thursday which is perfect since it's halloween night then.

They surely won't release a Halloween event after Halloween. Has to be Tuesday/Wednesday imagine if it isn't they'd be the only devs i've ever heard of to do Halloween after the holiday lol.
Plus they have a Q&A this week which usually happens after the updates.
I can't imagine the meltdown if that happens. People were mad about a delay but going past the holiday?

We could call it a thanksgiving event... XD
9 -
Sure but what should the devs do? Giving us a update that chrashes all the time and you can’t play. Let’s be patiently

Maybe a 5-10% chance it'll be tomorrow. I'd guess Thursday at best and next Tuesday is more probable.

Its really surprising to me that everyone is expecting Halloween event after Halloween???
2 -
My guess is based on a hunch I have that the devs will want to announce as soon as the patch is ready on their end to let people know any delays from then on are on Sony/Microsoft's certification processes. My guess is best-case they'll announce this afternoon that their work is all but done and they'll be sending it off for certification tomorrow morning, i.e. at best Thursday, and at worst, we get an update today or tomorrow saying they need a few more days and that would mean next Tuesday. I don't work there, so this is all based on assumptions, but I don't think it's likely we'll get it any earlier than Halloween.

i t hink it's very very likely we will get it on halloween's night, this thursday. it makes sense and i'm sure they are aiming for this.

They were working on it all week last week, had no improvements since friday, dont work weekends and were working on it today (monday).
It's probably NOT releasing this week. Sorry. Enjoy celebrating halloween after halloween :D
7 -
Still gotta get it certified. They can pay for the super quick certification but I doubt they would.
1 -
I can't list any off the top of my head, but from what I know there are actually quite a few that do their event after Halloween. Same with Christmas.

I'm holding out hope that friday status update was written on wednesday/thursday and cert was sent in on Friday.
0 -
Something like that doesnt take alotta time to write it. Lets be honest. It was probably written on the spot on Friday, they all went home, resumed work today and still not made much ground work towards fixing the "gamebreaking issues". Maybe they're 80% of the way.. they still wont wanna release it tomorrow. Which means it'd have to be certified wednesday, they'll do their stream thursday.. probably with alotta censorship to avoid the understandable outrage. Certification will pass friday, they'll go home for the weekend.. we're looking at a monday-tuesday release next week i'm speculating

I hope no one was drinking water at the precise time they read this title.
4 -
i'd say thursday is the day
0 -
When we get the patch I expect game to be near unplayable due the amount of game breaking bugs, as every engine update so far.
1 -
you must be playing dbd
1 -
i think the most logical thing to do is release the ######### event on thursday, the hype already died ages ago so why not just release it on hallow's eve at this point
2 -
I checked the DbD discord recently and @Peanits had said they're aiming for before Halloween.
He also said no promises though but its something thats their current goal but it could be missed.
0 -
yes this thursday would be ideal as its right before halloween's evening
0 -
New patches always get released on tuesdays as far as I remember. Unless they make an exception this time, it will probably be released on the tuesday next week.
1 -
I'll never understand why people are so bent out of shape over this delay.
0 -
I would like to see at least the classic outfit from ma bb Ghostface :(
0 -
Because its a Halloween event that may not be out for Halloween.
We'd be grinding for ghost flashlights after the season for that stuff and jack-o-lanterns is over.
4 -
If it is then prepare for half of the perks to not work for weeks. I wonder what will they manage to break this time

Personally, I am very disappointed because the game is getting very stale and kind of boring for me and the new event/archives would definitely be a refreshing change. It also feels like the patch wasn't even close to being ready for the release after reading their latest post and they set the date for event way too early.
7 -
I understand why people are disappointed. What I don't get is absolute ######### fits some people had over it. That's mostly settled down. But the intial announcement was followed by a tidal wave of anger. For something as inconsequential as an event I just don't get it.
0 -
Like I said above. The disappointment I get. I was looking forward to the archives myself. I'm more confused by the rage storm that followed.
1 -
yep the game is extremely stale, especially when you compare it to Identity V (try it out it's free and has a pc client). the amount of fun modes they have and every surivivor is unique and has special abilities. I mean it's not hard to make the switch to that game.
Are you really that excited about the archives? It's more of the same, doing dailies to unlock cosmetics. you will be "entertained" for a little while until you get bored again. This game is so stale and the devs will do nothing to change that after more than 3 years of development... let's not begin about the bugs and extreme slow adding of stuff to the game (unless it's cosmetics). I'm so glad I'm released from this game, even though it was so fun for a long time because the core mechanics are addicting to say the least.

@BBQnDemogorgon I guess, but Borderlands 3 "Halloween" event is going all the way to December 5th.... So it would be unusual but not out of the question if it so happen to not be this month. They only got a few days left and haven't heard any word about it since it was put out about it being postponed.
0 -
the fact that you just don't understand that yes, the event will come after Halloween makes me kinda sad.
1 -
Peanits has said they're still aiming for before Halloween though.
0 -
That's what they're aiming for, but realistically it's extremely unlikely. Peanits also said that they needed to send the update for certification when it's ready, which could take a few days. They were clearly still in the middle of working on it according to the update they released last Friday, so my guess is they didn't finish it Monday either. If we're being optimistic, it might not get done until Wednesday, and then unless certification goes through unusually quickly, we're looking at an event release post-Halloween.
The fact that this week has been dedicated to damage control - Q&A, further updates, etc. - seems to suggest that they're not expecting to have the update out this week either. In short, saying that they're aiming for a pre-Halloween release tells us that they're pushing themselves to get it out ASAP and haven't completely ruled out the possibility of it being this week. That doesn't mean it's at all likely that it will be.
