Starfield launches fully on September 6, including on Xbox and PC Game Pass. As with the early access release, it’ll be available to everyone at the same time globally, which also works out as September 5 for the Americas:
US Pacific: 5PM on September 5
US Eastern: 8PM on September 5
UK: 1AM on September 6
Europe: 2AM on September 6
Maybe one day Blizzard will stop using this tactic. This is the only reason the patch is coming out. If it feels rushed this is why. Blizzard is notorious for this.
It is great that they keep adding catch up gear options. I know it could help me. I will say though it would be way more helpful with catch up mechanics for renown. I know there is one in place for Alta but by now or 10.2 I would.hope there is a way to.auto catchup or speed the process up as I see it,.renown has little value? Dunno. Still nice to have the catch up.anyways
Mhm. These micro-patches are fine and probably a decent launching point if you were looking for a decent time to jump back into the game anyway, but they’re big nothing burgers for anyone who’s been playing.
And that’s fine. I’ll continue to just view them as filler and only check in on x.0 and x.5 patches.
I really enjoyed the season but for me it was over like a month ago. Even most of my casual guild that is still progging on Heroic Sark for AotC have started playing their alts last couple weeks.
I have only played for vaults for the last month. Crafting orders have dried up because either no one needs them or everyone has toons that are maxed now so they just craft/recraft themselves.
Running the eight +16-18 for vault is becoming mind numbing, so many bad players that have no idea, treating it like heroic random queue. Pugging heroic for 7 bosses… equally frustrating, usually its the tanks as of late.
When the highlight of my log in is seeing if the pet nursey dailies offer xp tokens instead of polished pet charms, its time to take a breal lol.
And no I don’t care about m+20 portals that I’ll never use, or pushing for a high score that I’ll never get high enough to get that end of season reward, or mythic raid with its lockouts that forces you to be stuck with the same 20 that started it.
Yeah, I’m not entirely sure what you’re smoking, but you should probably stop.
If you think the release of a small patch, 10.1.7, being released on September 5, 2023 has ANYTHING to do with Starfield launch times, you’re nuts. For the record, Starfield launch times were announced within the last week. Patch 10.1.7’s release date of September 5th was announced WEEKS ago.
Keep trying to hate on Blizzard, though. 10/10 post.
rushed as much as Shadowlands stuff or like they’re giving out details before we even hear of them normally? Who knows maybe they’ll have Fyrakk BBQ Tyrande before 10.2
Aug 7 was when WoWs patch release date was announced. SO YES - weeks ago
How Starfield choose to release the game as a global launch may be new but no the Sept 6 date
Dec 9th Path of Exile starts a new season. Blizzard also announces that day, Diablo 4 release date with a cinematic trailer. Seasons are announced before the day they start.
For the record - 2 examples. You can fact check if you want
I am sure other companies do this too. Blizzard has become so noticeable that I use their announcements or reveals to look at game release Calander. Why does that date sound familiar??.. oh yea… that game is coming out. At this point, Blizzard has become a helpful reminder
Not at all. We’ve been in 10.1 for almost four months. Will be just over four when this new patch comes out. Two minor patches of extra goodness in that time is awesome. Hell, I haven’t even started the whelp daycare. Or Eon’s Fringe. I forgot it was even a thing!
I get the feeling I’ll do Dreamsurges for the experience more than the gear. Even my undergeared characters still had better gear on than ZC offered, so I’m not certain how much better DS gear will be…
Hopefully there are other rewards to earn besides gear, or I’m not likely to do them much. I abandoned ZC after finishing the story, and only remember to go down there for digs every now and then.
No. I’m waiting for something that feels worthwhile. No mid- or high-end power progression whatsoever in the open world was a mistake. In making a game where people didn’t feel “forced” they also made the content pointless. Let the content come, and let them throw darts until something hits.
Blizzard I appreciate the new customization options for Forsaken, but we want posture options. We’ve been asking for these options for four+ years, and we’ve been more than patient, thank you.
Signed, literally everyone that has ever existed ~ ever.
To be fair, the new skin colors look really good… but posture for posterity sake!
