Release Date update 13

I kinda figured since the anniversary to ddo was on a wednesday it would be released this day. Then I saw this article stating it was that day. February 22.
Since I'm moderated on actual forums and don't care to wait a week or two to get my thread allowed anyone want to pester them there to get a confirmation? Or we'll know soon enough with a downtime announcement.

Last week I've been told ingame from several people that u13 will come Feb. 22nd. So far the update isn't on the live servers, yet. Only a few days left to farm the no-ML rings Wink

this date was not hard to guess given the anniversary is Feb 28th and the update must be in before that.

updates have always historically landed on the 3rd week of the month since the beginning of the game. The 22nd is spot on with what has always been.

Next week they should be announcing the pricing for the expansion or the pre-purchase info.  Also, changes to Llamaland soon.

I'm scared if update 13 is actually coming out this week, if it's anything like what's on Lammania there is still heaps of broken stuff, lol.

Is the gamplay video post-processed somehow? Or is Turbine going to update/change the graphics engine? Because on my computer, the game looks differently. Especially the character models.

I enjoy how the gameplay video they showed highlighted:
1) Breaking bookshelves and other breakables
2) The party zerging through traps.  Suck it rogues!

I cannot not break stuff, I must have Ransackery!
I've discovered something fun though on point 2: 
1. Get new players
2. be able to spot traps or know them well
3. run through them and make them think nothing is amiss
4. Mute mic
5. Laugh uncontrollably at the rage.

I doubt the people playing in this video have any clou about the game. Breaking bookshelves can be very amazing! (for a 4 year old)

I thought this at first, but then I realized they werent using a User Interface. My guess is it was simply god mode chars firing off spells and swing weapons for demo purposes

Do you not break breakables for Ransack? I'll take the extra 15% to base if I can thank you. If that makes me a 4 yr old then I'll be 4 forever. lol

I thought this way too.

And then noticed absolutely no spell casting whatsoever. Even the guy in bluescale robes was swinging a morningstar at mobs.

There is a huge difference if you run a quest for XP or for a gameplay video. I got the feeling they only broke stuff to show how interactive the game is Wink

You can notice the guy in bluescale turning on/off the metamagics feats.
I have two theories for the video:

1) Turbine probably gave some pre-made characters to the Gamespot previewers and they never played DDO before.

or

2) They're Turbine employers playing, and it can explain a lot of things about some development decisions.

I am going with #2.

P.S. And it wouldn't surprise me if it was Fernando.
