I don’t really have any expectations. If there’s supposed to be something coming out of this event thingy and Fatshark is hoping to generate excitement and hype, I’m not seeing what there is to be holding my breath over as yet.
If they do have something, I’d lay money on one of these three:
More of the Same - like the last patch, we might get a new slightly reworked variant enemy and some existing unfinished feature might get a bit of polish (maybe Melk?), but otherwise nothing of huge interest.
Crafting Gotcha - “lol we removed one lock but kept the last one, enjoy your crafting rework” or some other minor rejigger to that effect.
Cosmetic Grab - “We know how much y’all love them Premium priced extra-'spensive Regimental cosmetics, who’s ready for Vostroyans?”
What wouldn’t surprise me however:
Literally nothing of value - “How much y’all like those new Pennances? Has anyone tried the boardgame?”
I hope I’m pleasantly surprised by Fatshark and proven wrong, but as has already been rightly noted, Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
