Given the arrival of Easter, I would say next week earliest. Hopefully they mention more about it during the live stream:

Having said that, I would be pleasantly surprised if it got released in the next day or two (with mouth watering fixes and changes), as a sort of Easter gift.

Is this what I think it is and the special delivery objective will return?

Seems like it. Hopefully it will also include weapon/power/combo damage buffs too.

Surprise patch on Friday sounds cool. Buffs and balancing are awesome as usual. Would like some additional bug and stability fixing as well. Especially in reguard to crashes.

Hated the escort objective in ME3MP. Basically it was reduced to Cobra Missile spamming all the way to the endpoint in Gold/Platinum cuz the entire enemy force would concentrate on that spot non-stop.

So they would release a patch that breaks the game and then go on holiday? Like they would ever do such a thing...

Which patch was that in ME3 again? If I remember correctly it had something to do with the Geth Infiltrator and the Piranha.

Sal might be referring to key bug from DAMP,when they bailed on holidays for few weeks...

It was a bug which locked you in the room youd just cleared and wouldnt allow you to progress unless the host left to restart the wave (a key is supposed to drop but it didnt). There was no guarentee it wouldnt happen again after the restart. Also it could happen at any time, even right at the end of a 20 minute run.

Bioware went on holiday after the update that introduced it and it wasnt fixed for about a month? (A good few weeks at least). Instead we had BWEAmelia posting memes on bsn and calling people rabble rousers who complained, i lost my shit and got permabanned from the forums, then it got fixed but a large portion of the playerbase had already left by then.

Priceless. I'm laughing right now, but it wasn't really funny at the time.

Edit: Should read the post first. So it WAS another month until that happened. Amelia wasn't really professional about it - I don't remember the memes, though.

Amelia deserved to get fired for that. I'm 100% serious.

But on a positive (?) note I don't expect major patches for MEAMP this week. But I do expect the Packages objective and maybe the new character.

Yes, I still play ME3MP. No, I don’t know why.

There's always the possibility but it would be like the odds of a miracle. I always like to hope for the best (today/tomorrow) and prepare for the worst (never).

I expect they may announce the release date of the next patch during the stream or at least provide more details about upcoming changes and additions besides the new retrieval objective.

Thank you for the small recap. Really sounds like that issue was handled in a very poor manner. Hopefully we are lucky and things like that wont happen again. After all they are already trying to fix issues. Like the crashes for example.

About a month just to acknowledge and another month to partially fix it IIRC. It returned back from time to time but not on the original scale.
