Event announcement delay

This is unusual. Never seen it take so long for the next event to be announced. Makes me wonder what's up? A programming error that they want to correct before releasing the info is my guess.

    I assume it’s a licensing issue. However, we also know that they were preparing a new client for release, so things may have gotten complicated.

    The event next week will include the first legendary for the October Mega. It feels like something is going on with that Mega that is causing them to delay the event announcement until it's worked out. Maybe the bonus trait is not finalized, maybe art is still being worked on, maybe it's being held to coincide with a broader Star Trek announcement, or maybe something else entirely?

    If it is a licensing issue (as it is most of the time), then we are getting an all new character, that is at risk of being replaced with someone else if the issue is not resolved. If it was a variant of an existing character and the issue is art approval, I guess we would have the announcement minus the art.

    I guess. Maybe.
  • They have gotten some flack lately about having to correct things after releasing event info. Perhaps they have paid attention.

    Event up in game now...they fixed Gary's starfleet insignia - thank you TP
    Founding ADM - PoF family of fleets (POF, POF2 & POF3) - Dear TP: Non sequitur. Your facts are uncoordinated.
  • I see that,

    The new 5* actually has a decent Voyage score...maybe they decided to beef up his stats slightly after all of the commotion.
  • Looks like we got the worst of both worlds: the event was late, and now that it's up, it's still missing art for the ranked gold.

    The character description text isn't right. Straal was no more captain of the Glenn than Stamets was captain of the Discovery.

  • I suspect the delay was perfectly mundane. Straal is DIS crew, and may imply a DIS mega right before a DIS season, so it's entirely reasonable that there was some complication concerning what they could say when.

    Or maybe they needed to get an update before this would show up and it took a little longer than expected.

    I thought maybe the Legendary Reward was going to be a major spoiler for the Mega, and they had not announced it yet. But, he really doesn't {by himself} give anything away.
