So its 9am Swedish time now, I guess they are all back in the office by now? Is it possible for us to get an announcement today? ---

They need to do something… The release of Redfall get closer by the day, and it could hurt this game even further if people jump ship. ---

Emperor’s throne… if redfall releases the first half of this year, it would be leathal to fatshark. ---

I don’t think this alpha build needs any other game release to be burried. It’s doing just fine on its own. ---

redfall literally has nothing to do with darktide. ---

Not releasing any sort of announcement today would be a terrible mistake. People know they’ve been on vacation, and they have been rather calm because you can just get answered with “they deserve a vacation too” which I agree (even though I wouldn’t have left the game on autopilot for this long). BUT, they are working now, and some are likely doing it since last week, if they can’t produce anything to at least calm the waters today, the communication with the playerbase is absolutely doomed, more than it already is. ---

I’m sorry, but Redfall looks like some cringe Fortnite edgelord garbage. I don’t think it’s going to hurt Darktide. Its reveal had rap laid over some kids saying cringe narration with emo vampires. Omegalul ---

Redfall isn’t going to hurt darktide lack of content and transparency with the community is what will hurt darktide. ---

Aqshy responded to a different thread “Fatshark’s Silence is deafening”. Said a community update will be at the at the ‘Earliest’ time this week. IDK what that means, but that’s what was said. ---

I get the frustration, but when I’m on vacation i don’t want to worry about work related things, especially something like Christmas where there is an emphasis on family. Again these conversations should have taken place months ago, but don’t expect people to work over major Holidays such as Christmas. ---

That’s an interesting perspective. Considering @Aqshy did state she was in talks with the developer over the holidays: ![](https://i.imgur.com/iAGBFXe.png) But only now we’re going to actually have talks, again? Intradasting. ---

It definitely sounds like these were far from official, just getting groundwork ideas set etc. Before finalizing anything, especially to the community, I would want to make sure everyone is on board with it and they are feasible changes. Again, this should have happened months ago but it is what it is. ---

That was my bad, I wasn’t aware of that post I was just stating something from my personal experience. Also as I said before, I’m not sure how truly substantial those conversations were. Sorry for any misunderstanding. ---
