It will probably arrive shortly after the 390 dil packs are gone so people cannot aquire loads of new schematics for a reduced price.

Then that would be in September after the mega ends, which would, in my opinion, necessitate an official word at the very least, since August was the previously stated month the update is supposed to happen.

They can still announce the shift to September on August 31st.^^

I really don't want them to do a straight dump of loads more randomness into portal packs. I want them to do a proper update, maybe retiring some old crew from those packs or putting them into streams of some sort. If that takes them some more time, then I am ok with that.
At this point I am kind of assuming that that is what they are doing as it can't take that long to just update a loot table (unless they have reached some sort of limit imposed by their internal software).
I'm looking forward to the update for the 4* loot table, 'cause the only ones I'm missing are from the newer events (plus the 3-part voyage reward ones). I'm not looking forward to the 5* loot table update. I collected all the newer 5* cards that I wanted by competing in events. I can cite them up at my discretion. But I'm not wasting 50K honor on older cards like Ent-E Picard, Judge Q, Disguised Kira, etc. I would rather the odds for those cards not be diluted by the update.
Which of course brings us back to the need for a loot-table-by-year or some other solution. Because obviously the loot table will be updated - as it should be. (And I'm honestly looking forward to the screenshot postings from the players with hundreds of portals stored up.) But for my own game... I need the older cards so I can finally think about vaulting a legendary. Perhaps I should add that to my STT bucket list...
I have a nagging feeling that DB would want to extract as much cash & dilithium out of us through Elusive Treasures packs before the update....
But really hope I'm wrong.
Hmm... Maybe elusive treasures in an hour, followed by update next week?
I agree. In the past they have put out elusive treasures just before announcing a portal update. This time they said the portal would be coming “sometime in august”. So announcing it first kinda blows the opportunity for depleting di reserves or $ spending on the treasures pks when we know an update is coming. Ppl have been stockpiling portal packs instead. Maybe they are re-evaluating that???

The stockpiling of premium packs causes a problem because it means that people have a set of expectations that have to be met.
Maybe we'll see a small update of premium packs and some news on what a new system, coming in September, will look like? That way people who stocked up on packs get a chance to get out with some extra value, and a new system can then be put in with different costs and rewards with a totally different regular pack than the existing terrible premium pack system.

With a cherry on top.

But at least Sonic's wait was not for nothing, he created a burger franchise.
Still plenty of time, only 2/3 of the month has passed. 1/3 left.

Just released...tables updated
Oh you!
Music to my ears. Thanks to you and DB!
On behalf of my employer, given the 100+ packs I have to open, just picture a long string of expletives... lol
