delayed release of information

Ok so they just announced that the information on update 7 is delayed.

Can we get some information why? Is this because of Quakecon?

I am getting so extremely sick of the endless "soon" and "after" and "just wait a little bit more" it's the fourth time I have heard this, so I would like to hear some more information this time around.

    I'm surely hoping they don't wait until Quakecon. As far as I know this was the first time they gave us an actual date about info on this (content portion of the) release.. and now have postponed it.

    Just to confirm, we are not waiting until QuakeCon to begin talking about Imperial City. We will begin giving you details next week, and we will be discussing some features of Imperial City on ESO Live next week as well. And, of course, we'll still be hosting our panel at QuakeCon.

    We do apologize for this delay, but appreciate everyone hanging in there.

    But what is the exact reason that information is not avaiable on monday? That's pretty much the question of this thread and what I want to know most.

    It's the fourth time we've been told it's "later", now I want to know -why- it's later as I am sick of hearing later even though I am still paying for "later".

    There is no reason to push stuff back anymore. Im tired of making excuses to my guild and getting flamed as a fan boy.

    Its to the point there better be more content than just the imp city or this patch may well be a huge disappointment.

    In the announcement/article about ZOS going to QuakeCon made recently there was mention of them having an IC panel or discussion or something, as well as talk about other 1.7 content (unspecified), so, yeah, it looks very much like we aren't getting the new update for at least a month. I recall early in the spring the consensus in many threads here was that 1.7 wouldn't hit until August at the earliest with September as the more likely date. Those predictions are sounding more likely every week.

    That's one of the laters I also mentioned.

    But come on seriously, I feel like subscribers should be compensated at this point I have been paying for months expecting content and getting zero. I am really dissapointed over this. A guild I have been working very hard on for 1.5 years now is close to death simply because it's impossible to find people to do anything now adays. Something should happen FFS.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno Why the delay though? You've delayed this content for a year... another delay, even for a few days, is frankly ridiculous and you fob us off with a non-explanation? Not cool.

    Well, this is why speculation and suspicious recrimination are among the top forum games. Maybe there is an issue with how the paid Imperial City DLC will be released/paid for on console. Maybe there is a last minute change being made. But so far players being angry, anxious, quitting the game, etc, hasn't changed the basic MO for releasing info on new content. I kind of feel bad for the community managers because I am sure they would love to share more info, just as I am sure the people who work to design and code the content would love the players to get their hands on it.

    Game companies get worse and worse with revealing information daily. Zenimax is no different, obviously. It's the simple fact that most people won't quit the game due to lack of information, so they get away with it.

    TBH, it pisses me right off. The only excuse to not give us information is if they don't know and/or haven't decided what they're actually going to have done or be able to include in the update. Which is a terrible excuse, as those things should have been thought and planned out long ago.

    Poor communication is the bane to any relationship, Zenimax.

    You keep on teasing me. I hope this info is substantial because you keep on delaying it. Tamriel Unlimited comes out expect update of info after console launch. 4 months passed. Console launch expect new info soon. Three weeks later. Eso live expect July 13. a week later find out we probably have to wait five more days. I will be sorely disappointed that the information is insignificant and not worth the wait.

    This is really getting old. The game is STALE. Why does everything have to go in one patch????? There must be some changes/fixes/PvP stuff that can go in sooner. I have never in my life seen so many announcements about announcements in any industry. Nice PR move though announcing the delay of the announcement late on a Friday afternoon/evening.

    Also, the "begin giving you details" really worries me. Sounds so far off before this hits live. PC will be completely dead by then. I am starting to think that PC will be killed off and transfers offered. Console will be the only platform. Would not surprise me one bit.

    For some reason, I never expected it actually on Monday 13th, just in the week of Monday 13th. I guess I must have misread/misheard the initial statement...
    [...]how the paid Imperial City DLC will be released/paid for on console[...]
    As far as I am aware, they still haven't said whether it will be paid or not. Maybe that's what the delay is - finalising that decision.
