[QUOTE=SLowFLow;52457386]I dont think so, because they aren't gaining anything from it, and they are losing their trust from Valve.[/QUOTE]
I talked about it in Reddit, people seemed to agree with me.
There's a paradox. If Valve even spouts something related to the upcoming update, the community hypes the everlasting shit of it because of so little communication, the community grabs anything they can find, and Valve is afraid to communicate so that community doesn't get overhyped, and later pissed off as the result.
[QUOTE=Blackavar;52457407]I think something will happen today. Just a hunch.[/QUOTE]
just... got the feeling?

Then they should communicate much, much more so the community stops getting overhyped about everything. Like at least once a week.

You can't gift wrap untradable items since tough break
[QUOTE=agrastiOs;52457341]3) I meant the players getting busy in August (schools going back and etc.)
4)Well, Valve accepted to answer these questions. I don't think they would want to say something like "Update will release in August"
[/QUOTE]
3) is still irrelevant then. Players being busy or not will have absolutely no bearing on the update release date. As for 4).. You are aware people can be like "We'll answer these questions" but then not answer all of them? Or go "no comment" or any sort of wishy-washy "we can't be sure but hopefully before the end of the year" answer?
[QUOTE=Fluury;52457419]6) is not completely irrevelant. The mere existence of World 11 Servers, even though for like 1-2 months now, implies the Update is close, since they are related to the Update.
7) can be found in various thread, specifically the general chat, a user submited a bug to be fixed, got a response from eric saying theyll fix the bug in "one of the updates" - and so far nothing happened.
If they were planning to release another teeny tiny update before the update, it wouldve been out long ago.[/QUOTE]
How do you know that the World 11 servers are related to the update?
There is NO evidence, whatsoever, linking them to the update. They just showed up, and then went away.
As for 7), fair enough.
[QUOTE=Jetamo;52457502]3) is still irrelevant then. Players being busy or not will have absolutely no bearing on the update release date[/QUOTE]
well, it is in valves best interests to target the update release for a time where the most players possible will be able to play and take part in it.

Fluury pls, forget about the World 11 servers, we don't know if they are related to the update at all.
with all this wait, u guys think the best move for valve is doing a blog post preparing us for the update or just pust the Day1 updage page? what will be the smartest move?
Blog post. Valve's biggest goal this update is to be communicative. Simply releasing the update without any feedback besides balance changes would be risky (i.e. rocky release of Casual)
[QUOTE=RetroMike;52457439]Also, don't count on a mapper spilling the beans if they do get the final arrangements done with Valve. Doing that would spoil what maps are getting added and I'm sure they would rather the community be surprised.[/QUOTE]
None of us map makers are going to spoil the surprise. But you can take a wild guesses based on the activity of certain individuals here if they suddenly go quiet and have spoken actively before about maps getting in. ;)

Im hoping for the Day 1 update page. or a simple blogpost
[QUOTE=agrastiOs;52456264]
4)VNN emails containing a question "Late June or Early July?"
[/QUOTE]
The TF team asked for questions not related to the pyro update, they could release the update and then answer the email.
They also said that they would only answer the questions they want to answer.

[QUOTE=runnerbeany;52457154]We managed to get a Meat your Match announcement [URL="http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=22674"]the day before the update[/URL], so if it was to come out this week, we'd have the announcement tonight/tomorrow.
Also, remember that [B]APPARENTLY[/B] mapper/model creators are told about the release of an update weeks before (if their creations get through). As far as I know, nothing's been said to them so far, so I'm gonna go ahead and expect mid July/early August for the release.[/QUOTE]
[DEL]
It's been already said that item creators don't know anything about it until it's too late and mappers have only a vague idea that it's coming.[/DEL] oh my god I'm so late I'm sorry

ehh, you can see i'm only just opening My eyes to valve's secret signs
we have around 3 weeks until august, if the update is going to be in early august we NEED at least an small annoucement, is good to build hype but not in this way, i mean if the update is going to be this month is ok dont tell us anything but duuude if is not going to be this month tell us so we can talk about other stuff rather than "today is the day"
[QUOTE=runnerbeany;52457660]ehh, you can see i'm only just opening My eyes to valve's secret signs[/QUOTE]
I meant that I responded not noticing your post was already answered by someone else, not complaining about you or you being out of the loop - don't worry :)

What else are the servers supposed to relate to, especially with such a weird tag?
Also if we are rolling with a 3-day update today is a good day for a blog post 🤔

I love that you are so optimistic, I also hope that the update or some news about it will drop today. I just finished all my school exams.

I don't think it'll be a 3 day update. 2 days, maximum.

Have you recieved said email yet?
[QUOTE=valvenews;52457830]Dave told me it would be answered before the update hits.[/QUOTE]
"before the update hits" is so vague. I can't help but imagine you getting your reply moments before the update ships.
[QUOTE=RetroMike;52457956]"before the update hits" is so vague. I can't help but imagine you getting your reply moments before the update ships.[/QUOTE]
Yup, they could just post it with day 1 because the update wont "hit" there
With this Valve silence that we experience for what feels like a millennia, I can't help but feel unsure as to what the devs could be doing as of now that even they are not sure when a release date can be made. I don't expect the update to be coming out in July if the devs themselves still have yet to reach the near-end of their goal for this update.

dude you were so happy about the balance blogpost that made a ton of problematic weapons that inherently counter heavy no longer counter heavy
