This Friday: a special teaser and a break for Mike

Hey Travelers,

After this Friday, Mike’s will be taking a break for the next two weeks. The Dev Q&A Stream will return on July 24th.

In the meantime, we’ve got a juicy teaser for you this Friday so tune in at 3 PM CDT to check it out.

And when Mike’s back, we will have more to share with you then!

See you Friday.

Let’s hope this is the catalyst to S5 content hype ramp up and ideally Finally seeing the 1st paradox class.

The topic about Season 4 teasers was posted in January, and the actual release was in March.

The topic for Season 5 teasers has just been posted. When do you think we will get the actual season? My guess is late August, if not later.

And paradox classes are so, so far away that IMO it would be a waste of time to talk about them now. I wish EHG would not spend so much time talking about content that won’t be released in 2026.

Lol damn I was looking forward to most questions being answered with “I don’t really have any information on that right now” or “I can’t answer that at the moment” - but here’s another mtx no one asked for in the mean time!

Dinnae forget to rest, guys. “Work is not a wolf; it won’t run away into the forest.”(a Russian saying) :laughing:

P.S. But the best advertising is worth thinking about and strengthening. Check out Aaron’s latest video.

Hi @EHG_DerrickG there’s a few 100 people wondering if Friday was code for not Friday?

No teaser? No S5?

What do you mean? I didn’t see the dev stream itself, but I saw Aaron’s digest post and there was a teaser of an actual unique, complete with roll ranges and everything.

That is what the players have been asking for, rather than just some art for the unique.

I saw the shield on Aarons wrap up too - I love Aarons vids he’s the only member of EHG who actually explains things.. oh wait he’s not a member of EHG.

If that was their juicy teaser then my bad I guess I was confused along with a lot of others and expected something substanstial and not some half baked shield for a crap skill. I guess it’s better than a random picture but to me this still doesn’t count as a juicy teaser here. They spam pics of weapons and armors for new leagues on poe as well, don’t much care for that either.

Imagine a huge movie is coming out and they say “we have a juicy teaser” and instead of a short video of the film they put up a screen shot of a guy being punched and some text?

Not a juicy teaser. I guess the 4% of people who used it on the of people playing might be hyped. Catering to the masses this is EXACTLY how you bring in the big numbers for season 5. Laaamao.

So, the stream concluded, didn’t it?

Now… where do I see the link here in the Forum to the VOD for it to allow access from the official website to their teasers? As has been repeatedly thrown at their faces for… always basically?

Ah yes, it’s not existing.

Hence I’ll treat it as ‘there exists no teaser’

And hence I’ll accordingly say ‘EHG lied’ since they - once again - failed to be professional when they actually need to be.

The teaser was shared on Friday and I’ve added it to our S5 teaser thread here too!

Nobody looks at old posts which are edited.
Add is as a new post on the bottom instead of editing the initial post.

Alternatively to allow editing: Pin the respective thread as ‘Season 5 teaser Megathread’ (which is terminology people know about nowadays).

It has to be either pinned to stay on top or be bumped. This is not a transparent method what has been done, it’s still as if it doesn’t exist.

But then everything would be spread all throughout the post (if lots of people reply to it). It’d be a lot simpler (if they weren’t going to pin the thread) to add the new thing to the first post & then post at the bottom to say the new thing has been added (ie, bumping it).

The thread is locked, so supposedly only they can add posts to it. If they can’t, then that’s bad forum design, since admins/mods should be able to do so.

But I’m pretty sure they can, since that’s standard practice on forums and making a new post would both bump it and have a clearly defined “this is what’s new” post.

As @DJSamhein explained already, locked thread.

And even if all the things explained don’t uphold… you can change the initial post and bump it up both worst-case.

There’s always workaround. The bump proclaims ‘Added xyz’ and the initial post is the complete summary.

This is no rocket science stuff, baseline communication management, and we know EHG is very very bad with that in several regards. There’s a ton of positions always open which are entirely useless, what EHG needs is a communication manager, a content manager and a financial manager for the gaming space specifically, those 3 positions are their weakspots.
Communication so stuff like this doesn’t over… and over… and over again happen.
Content manager to actually optimize the pipeline and enforce proper designs before they end up in ‘nothingness’ as their development speed is atrocious plainly spoken.
And a financial manager to enforce how much effort goes into improving the game and how much has to be made in expanding the monetary options within their self-proclaimed limits.

First to not piss people off, second to actually do stuff which isn’t ‘background crap nobody needs’ but has distinct gameplay impact itself and the third to not go bancrupt again because Krafton won’t let them just dimple around like this forever. If the expansion shows no promise LE is with nigh guarantee dead and the studio disbanded.

lol and you and the regulars who comment on every thread with really long replies isn’t ending up spreading everything out anyway? Bro the amount of posts I have seen y’all absolutely explode with walls of texts is right up there with the number of bugs they will never fix in this game :stuck_out_tongue:

And it’s wall of texts about how to “properly” bump a forum post. :rofl:

Ya know the situation’s dire when ya got to speak about that stuff and got absolutely zero to talk about the game itself since quite a lot of months.
