Well if todays is pushed back to Monday and they don't drop the Champion one I'd hope that everything doesn't end up getting pushed back. Personally I'd like the opportunity to digest all the road map as well as ask questions before deciding if I want to spend on July 4th.
The Champions Dev Diary is not complete yet, and there's a lot of the same team working on both. Unfortunately, this means that all of them will be pushed back.

Kinda wish you guys included that in the alliance dev Diary post as well
They are only hurting themself. One of their biggest money making days is just a week away. If the community is not comfortable with the state of the game by then I would imagine less money will be spent. The ball is in their court.

They will be out before July 4th, right? And if they aren’t, will you push back the deals? I doubt it but it’s a poor decision to wait until after the biggest sale day to release your roadmaps.

I assume once they work out a new timeline for announcements it will be posted?
Honestly? I'm just tired. I'm tired of waiting. We had to wait for all of this after putting pressure for changes in the game - we finally get the first roadmap and the biggest thing i took from it was that we are going to be waiting for probably half a year longer for act 6 to be changed. Nothing concrete or dates solid in that announcement at all. Then we hear the next roadmap is being delayed, and that means the rest of them are delayed as well? And they're still working on an announcement that's most likely going to be vague with no timelines like the last one?
I'm not blaming the messenger here at all, but come on guys. You gotta know how bad this looks. I was waiting to hear all of this before I decide if I want to drop money on July 4th. Just had the PS5 announcement with new marvel games coming for it in the fall, and if this rollout of an announcement of an announcement is any indicator of things there, I don't know why I would want to drop money for this game when i can save for something else that probably won't disappoint me later. It really just sucks. I feel the energy and motivation to stick with this game slipping away day by day, and I feel no sense of urgency or importance coming from those at Kabam right now. I kind of just don't understand it. Why wasn't all of this run by the CCP in a reasonable time frame to allow for changes that wouldn't alter the release of the roadmaps? It sounds like you guys gave it to them the day before it was going to come out, and were yet again surprised when it needed changes. Did no one think about giving a few days to allow for the possibility of changes?
I just gotta shake my head. I hate being so negative here but I have played this for so long and I've spent so much money, and it's getting harder and harder to justify sticking with it. This is not a good look and it's pretty telling that those in charge couldn't even get an announcement of a rollout correct without needing to delay more.
I'm appalled that a big gaming company announced the dates while still working on them? In my field if we set a date for production, we complete our work atleast 15days prior to it....
I hope the new updated Road map have time stamps and not another road map to a road map , even if its something that says in the next 2-3 months these will be implemented i can live with that.
Are you gonna answer us @Kabam Miike ? Will the roadmaps all be out before July 4th? Or do you still expect us to spend our money without knowing what improvements you guys are going to make to the game? Also, how is it possible that you guys don’t have the other roadmaps ready yet? It baffles me that you’re still working on them when you gave us deadlines on when to expect them. The roadmap maps should have been made and shared with the CCP for feedback before you even announced their deadlines. It’s amazing that you guys are managing to be this incompetent. On one hand, I’m glad that you listened to the CCP about the AW and AQ roadmap, but on the other that should have been done at least a week before you were scheduled to release it. How does it make sense to wait until the last minute?

I'd guess they didn't give the CCP the info in advance as they didn't want it leaked like last time.. which is fair.. that being said it is a little strange that they delay this info due to input from the CCP.. however they still went ahead with other things like the reduction of 6* shards in abyss even though the CCP people suggested that was a bad idea..
I suppose they pick and choose when they want to take advice and when they don't which is of course their prerogative..

It's fine for them to pick and choose when to follow ours or CCP's advice, not all the advice we give is good and I'm sure not all the advice from CCP is good either. What isn't fine is their inability to stick to deadlines and to not have their product ready until the last possible second. I'm not surprised to see that they went ahead and took away the 6 star shards and I'm sure that we'll still have to pick the class nexus before we get the chance to open our t5cc because the last thing Kabam wants is to give us too much choice in our accounts or have too many chances to get a good six star. 15k shards, 9/10, will result in a King Groot or Iron Patriot or someone similar, but I guess that they don't want to take the 1/10 chance that someone will walk away from Abyss feeling rewarded for their effort.
While the delay is annoying I’m glad they’re making them all the best they can be rather than releasing things that aren’t great
Dude they already released information that isn’t good. Are they scrapping everything and restarting? Probably not, meaning waiting doesn’t necessitate better results.

I agree. A little baffling. They told us the reason they were spreading them out was so we would be able to digest them better. We know now the real reason is because they were not ready yet.
