    Default Week out teasers?

    Any teasers SSG? A week out ? Has anything been decided?

    Surely one thing must have been decided. Make a decision every day, let us know, get us excited?

    Unless the decision is cancellation, of course, then we won't get excited.

    Don't let the doomsayers get to you.

    There have been a number of teasers SSG appears to be playing season 4 close to the chest.

    been a few so far.

    Discussion in the previous video with Cordo.

    Touched on in the producers letter.

    An official announcement of the date.

    The lack of rewards listed in this years hardcore rules.

    All teasers because they are only giving out bits of information not all of it.

    Even the hardcore 4 logo is a teaser.

    Really the only thing that has not been put out yet is the rewards.

    Lol, so almost nothing has been finalized.

    We already knew it was a known event, your "teaser" is the date it is starting on?
    Rules were discussed, but not finalized afaik. The "teaser" is the rules are up for discussion? The rest of the rules are copy/paste rules from previous seasons. Is that a teaser?
    Lack of rewards is a teaser?

    The ... logo ? Well, I sure hope it's a teaser of some sort.

    Aren't we "closer to the start of the season" ?

    I'm still excited, I just want some further excitement this week!

    You want Cordo showing off the new items in a video? they did that last season.

    Not my teasers

    & you've missed some of them.

    You want more great doesn't mean that they canceled hardcore.

    What have I missed?

    I was just saying the cancel thing as a dark humour hedge on me asking for updates, that those updates wouldn't be it is cancelled. You seem very defensively hung up on it.

    Outside of your issue with that - it's pretty silly to have an event that the community is excited for and be dark on it. I've even convinced some people to play, but they would also like to know what we might be playing for, so they/I can set some sites / plans on some builds / goals.

    Screenshot would be fine, or even tease what *type* of rewards there might be. What I *personally* would do is screenshot the worst to best items, and personally I would set that up as level 20, 1750 favor / 10 reaper, 5k/20reaper, and release that info say, 2 weeks out, 1 week out, day before. Of course you have to make sure the rewards are actually increasingly intriguing for each release.

    Now, if the rewards aren't interesting enough to generate any hype - well. I guess that is that.

    If other are fine with the info given already - good for you.

    For me and others I play with that consider doing HCL again there is no real hype without knowing the rewards - as those are key to our decision.

    If SSG is hoping that some players will decide and commit to playing HCL regardless of the rewards they are almost certainly correct. But if they think that noone will fail to commit for lack of knowledge about the rewards they are very certainly wrong.

    If they rewards are actually good - it should not be a problem to post them.

    Do try to think for yaself instead of making assumptions.

    You'd know maybe ifn you referred to the sources.

    I think that while transparency is better this is the path that was chosen.

    More info would be good better than doom that it's not been released.
