Is Alexander (Normal mode) launching on Tuesday?

[Curia_Regis]

We've been told that Alexander (Normal mode) would launch "approximately 2 weeks" after official launch, which would be this Tuesday, July 7th.

We've received no word on whether or not this schedule is still being met. Can we get an answer from the community team on the date for this? Thanks.

Doubt it , we've probably would have heard about it by now. SE doesn't really ''spring'' things up on us

It's not springing anything on anyone.

We've known for quite a long time now that Alex will be released 2 weeks after the official 3.0 launch.


I don't see any reason for them to delay it, and just because they haven't mentioned it doesn't mean things have changed.

Naturally, no one can know for sure without an official statement but I'm leaning on the side of it releasing Tuesday like its been planned to for awhile now.

I call it ''springing'' up because no ''maintenance'' warnings have been put up yet and we've heard very little about pre-2.5 FcOB we knew way in advanced , official dates and everything weeks prior. I'm not saying it won't happen Tuesday I'd just be surprised. I'm looking forward to it but not banking on it. I'll come to this post and congratulate you if you're right

They never gave a substantial notice for the times of minor patches, 24-48 hours in advance is the norm.

[ZhycranaDranix]

Yeah but Minor patches normally include QoL things and bug fixes not Raids and extra dungeon content

[Dualblade]

We already know they will be doing a maint next week acutally.

So most likely Alexander is being added in, and thus also a good time to add in the hotfixes since players wouldn't be on anyways.

well then I have been served

They were very clear about the timeline for this during the live letter at E3 prior to early access. Yes it's coming Tuesday, and then 2 weeks after that savage mode is coming.

Tuesday will be Alexander (normal), then two weeks after that (Alexander Savage) and the new Scribs are coming. Today is Friday and there as been no post as of yet to say other wise.
