They have stated on several occasions that the big update may or may not be on the 23rd/24th, or indeed later in the week. So stop moaning and be patient.

Although I do think that now they stated 7pm GMT they should start the festivities (Decorations, cakes whatever) and put people out of their misery.

Regina just came into Shing Jea 1 and said they didn't have a specific time yet but it'd be today. Boardwalk, cupcakes etc. I asked her about the storage and she didn't really specify if that'd be released today too.

I have a feeling when the update appears (in about 3+hrs) it will only enable the drops and the fireworks and nothing else.

I know they said the big update was due April, but did they also specify a year? ;p

Just be patient... Same thing happened with the last big update.

iTzF3aR · Apr 23, 2009, 10:15 PM // 22:15

I agree, I was looking very forward for the update to come out today.

OH NOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL, this thread so funny. First of all, on Tue it said Fri 24th - now Thu 23rd (cupcakes). Personally the sooner I can farm cupcakes, the better...

This has got to be the latest update patch evah!!!

Uh no. Every big update usually never came out till 6 pm PST. If not later, sometimes a bit earlier but rarely. Why do you guys think the Storage/ zaishen update is not happening today??

Ah, that's a shame. I too thought that everything would be out for one day.

So it pretty much looks like:

- Thurs: Town Decoration and Cupcake update
- Some time next week (probably next Thursday) the big, epic, uber content update we thought was today

Based on the fact that Linsey "doesn't know" whether the big update is coming with this one, you can safely say it won't happen today, otherwise others at ANET would be talking about it. I mean - this is a BIG update we're talking about, one which will only happen 3 times a year. It would be pretty obvious to her that the big update is about to go live.

LOL wtf ever. It is a reasonable expectiation based on 4 years of history to have the drops start at 12 PST like a majority of all the events preceding this one. Go in game there is a huge amount of people wondering what is gong on.

Also if you check my original post I simply asked if it was a typo and if ANET is having attention to detail problems, gave some examples and got jumped on. Simply answer was nope tull not a typo they are just running late.

"Another typo on ANET's part? Not instilling alot of confidence with so many attention to detail issuses. Wrong dates posted in game and on the website, no announcement of the easter weekend at all in game.......someone play the Benny Hill music."

I am not a ANET hater by any stretch of the imagination but when there are issues such as the lack of any announcement for the easter weekend, the first typo on the GW game and what is posted on the GW website I will bring attention to it.

Oh wait not 4 years: 3 years 11 months 22 days 3 hours 32 minutes and 10 seconds, dont want to get jumped being ahead a few days.

Black Metal · Apr 24, 2009, 12:29 AM // 00:29

plus they never mentioned at all the Easter weekend.........who's running the ship here? Things seem to be getting worse and worse

Tender Wolf · Apr 24, 2009, 12:40 AM // 00:40

I noticed the lack of Easter information too. I personally don't care about the cupcakes and boardwalk as they're there every year. I want the extra storage space and the menagerie...I really need the storage as anyone who has a full HOM can attest.

They introduce GWEN and you can put elite armors in the HOM, but of course you can add multiples, causing several people to buy a bunch of armor sets with no place to store them. Personally I think they should've created this storage update with GWEN because of that reason. That and the mini pets and weapons that can also be added in HOM.

Zaishen update is gonna be something new for everyone to try and when I first started playing this game I only chose ranger because of the pet option. True I don't use a pet that much now and love my class regardless but I love animals and...yeah.

ATTENTION!
A guildie has just in formed me that the update is now live! Must go see!
