    I don't know about you guys, but I think DE needs to take a lesson from this: don't make too much content for one update. Update 19 is EXTREMELY ambitious. What, with a whole starchart rework, Prime acquisition rework, a new companion type, a new tileset, a new acquired-via-quest Warframe, another lore-heavy cinematic quest and a whole bunch of other things we don't even know about. Oh, and also that sport I tried once and returned to my hiatus. I think it was called Lunarus...?

    Update 17, as an example, had only a new Warframe (admittedly a complicated one), a reworked Tyl Regor in a tileset that was made back in 16.5, an existing gamemode transferred to a new environment (sharkwing), an additional mod slot with new mods and changes to existing mods to fit in it (Exilus), Shotgun buffs, Frost changes, basic stat changes but most notably Parkour 2.0, which I believe was the most significant part of the update. There was the Natah quest, but that wasn't even released with the first update as it wasn't ready. How long a gap was it between Update 17 and Update 16? Four months.

    Update 16 was even smaller, with only a Warframe (also obtained via quest), the Sanctuary, the first raid, Cephalon capture and tons of quality changes... and that was it. But we were still happy with it, weren't we? Try not to go too big with your updates, or these 8-month delays will happen. It's taken way too long considering the original July ETA and I'm not even sure if I'm all that exited for The War Within anymore. I know there's things I don't know about how making a game works but bringing out hopes up for July and then pulling an "oh wait no it's August" only to AGAIN delay it is gut-wrenching.

    Honestly, They could have skipped lunaro, left it for another date, The war within is much more badass

    honestly. im actually pretty dissapointed right now. any chance we can at least get an idea on why its taking so long. because now i think TWW is taking longer then TSD.

    Originally intended for end of July, then beginning of August, It does kind of suck that TWW is being delayed as much as it is, and now that they're splitting it into two parts, I'm willing to guess that TWW is gonna come late august or early September at this pace.

    and what of those "surprises" Steve mentioned very briefly? That's probably gonna delay this a bit too.  I feel like if they Give us any dates at all it could just be delayed, again.

    But I suppose we can just keep drooling at our screens while they show off some of the features on dev streams.
