As we're a week from the end of May, I'm expecting new content to drop next week that will pave the way to the Cataclysm that BioWare has been working on. What do you expect will drop next week and how extensive a thing do you expect Cataclysm to be?

Wasnt it pushed back until further notice? Like whole roadmap? The in-game 'News' screen continues to refer people to the roadmap page. Linking to the roadmap that still exists on the EA site. www.ea.com/games/anthem/actsI don't expect a full-blown Cataclysm just next week, but I do expect BioWare to pop their head up next week and start a content rollout process that gets us there. Chad Robertson was clear that we would learn more about Cataclysm next week. Cataclysm
"The Cataclysm is an important addition to the game and it’s currently a big focus for the team. The Cataclysm will bring new challenges and rewards and pushes the story of Anthem forward. As our work continues, we will share more with you in May."www.reddit.com/r/AnthemTheGame/comments/bgkgl3/update_on_anthem_from_the_development_team/

"Sharing" about it, won't mean "dropping" it. I think old info on page is just oversight or there's just noone busy doing the PR stuff.

But I don't expect June 1st to arrive with only silence. BioWare can't be unaware of what's on their own News and site pages, this is a 'Game As A Service' after all.

Next week? I expect no new content.
What I do expect is some "news"... we are working on cataclysm. It will be amazing. ... etc. More info coming soon. Anyone expecting more, as per the (implied suggestion of the) OPed title is smoking weed.
It is clear (to me), that there is a reason(s) for pulling the Road Map. Bio finally realized that adding more content to a game foundation made of straw won't work. Plus, if EA really meant it, when they said the company is committed to quality games, then Bio needs to start with Anthem. Cataclysm, as new content, must work well once available.The studio must nail Cataclysm right from the start.
So, again I say, nothing but hot air will be spouted from Bio next week. I see no informatorial event as a start.

Myself, I'll believe it when I see it, cataclysm..... umm whoopie I'm not going to get myself hyped about it because Bioware has let me down more times than not lately Bioware has a long way to go to garner my trust.

In my opinion they shouldn't even be working on new content but actually fix the old and broken one first and rework the whole loot, inscription and crafting system.

I think it was James Cook, who said "Never underestimate the incompetence of BioWare." ... or something like that.

In my opinion they shouldn't even be working on new content but actually fix the old and broken one first and rework the whole loot, inscription and crafting system. So essentially create a whole new game. Which would be easier and probably cheaper. Soooo....not happening.

- They already said they were looking at the loot.

I wouldn't expect anything. Even when the new stronghold was coming out, there was news/hints about it, some lead up to the livestream. I doubt they just throw out some new content without any word, or some type of build up to it.

Players can Count themselves lucky if Cataclysm ever Comes true halfway decent and isn't just alternative skybox with reskinned enemies. This game is in shambles. The "live Service" Team now tasked to fix the game that was never Ready to ship. And make the new Content Ready. The "live Service" was Nothing than a Makeup to buy time. This is just like "Black Peter" a Card game where you lose if you end up with the losing Card. And that is now in Austin. They now know all the remaining users that Play the game by their nicks - isn't so many anymore.

To go 100 percent silent like they have been is frustrating and concerning. It's as if they're embarrassed as to how this all turned out, but knowing full well they were releasing a hot steaming pile of butt. The time for embarrassment is over and they need to either give us some feedback on their plans for fixing the game or scrapping the game altogether. I guess it's not too much of an issue for me as I've moved on to other games. I tried like hell to get to level 30 but with nobody in matchmaking it made the grind just way too much.

Maybe the remaining people working on Anthem don't know how to update it I'm half serious at this point I suppose that's why they were in the hiring phase. Obviously whoever worked on this prior to release doesn't know how to craft a video game and they should have all been told to move on. I'm hoping once they get someone in who knows how to address the progression system, weapons, and skills, we'll see an update at some point. If they nailed that together with the game play we already have I'll be back in a heartbeat.
