Yea you get in line for a couple hours, and then when it’s your turn they dump hot garbage on you. “Thanks for coming out, kid”

@Brigby not even a bite here? How about a “yeah, that release is still planned but I don’t have a date” or “a more detailed blog post is imminent”?

@GrizzoMtGPQ Apologies for the delay, as I wanted to confirm with the team before commenting. Yes. The release is still planned for this month, however, I don’t have an exact date yet.

Having said that though, I anticipate getting some pre-release notes out hopefully sometime next week.

Should we expect any news ravnica allegiance related? Mechanics some preview cards etc, or it’s too early for that yet? (having both azorius and orzhov in the same set I am overly excited)

I’m going out on a limb and saying that its too early (and Gruul and Simic are better, although I do like Orzhov on occasion)

I just love 'em all… Can’t wait to mix and match 'em between Allegiance and Guilds.

As of this moment, I’m unaware of any teases or sneak peeks planned on being shared regarding the next card set. Having said that though, I do know that Oktagon has a brief blog post written up about a new quality-of-life setting that’s being added in 3.2. Keep an eye out for when that gets posted!

Brigby, thanks!

Ahhh, I cannot wait. This is much longed for.

“BUGS: On/Off”

Except it’s bugged and you can’t actually switch it to “Off”.

What about the q and a?

Unless that QoL setting is a “Resume Match” feature, no one cares.

Fix the games damn spaghetti code already.

@Brakkis Now now, no need to slur the good name of spaghetti. :o

I think that at this moment D3/Oktagon aspires to 3rd rate code. However it is difficult to go from tinykitty code to 3rd rate. :disappointed:

Only about two weeks left in the month, and we have yet to hear anything substantial about a release coming out… this month.

Shouldn’t you want to promote it and build up hype? That’s basic marketing.

Communication is a basic function of business. I know you get a largely toxic response to almost anything these days, but that isn’t a reason to give up on it completely.

I still say the original code was written in French, and the new code is in Portuguese.

Do you think so? To me it appears that the reactions usually start positive after they communicate (and they mostly communicate well when they do, apart from some Q&A they didn’t invest any love in). The tone gets worse the less we hear by them - and they usually never manage to keep on building a hype. Best example were the Dom Pws. It’s always a big piece and then silence.

The longer the silence stays, the less interested the players are in the last pieces of information. So we come back to our main topic - bugs.

@Brigby how about those 3.2 release notes? :grinning_face:

We actually just received some more info to add to/supplement the pre-release notes, so we’re working through the approval/compilation process for that as quickly as we can. Hopefully, we can get all of this info out this week, if not sometime tomorrow.
