Anything to announce? Anything at all?

The next two Tuesdays are holidays. It very well could be that Microsoft has no plans to update the marketplace these two weeks. Not wanting to put the PS Store and XBL out of sync, Harmonix could easily be taking the next two weeks off from DLC. And I wouldn't expect to see a schedule of DLC; the original one, in my opinion, was to further hype and market the game prior to release. From here on out I expect weekly announcements on Monday/Tuesday letting us know what's available that week. Regardless, I know from trusted sources that there is plenty more DLC in the pipeline, and this is by no means a sign of the release schedule slowing down.

There aren't any huge bugs that are making this game unplayable. There are some people that are unhappy with some design choices made, but that does not mean that Harmonix has to respond to them nor fix them.

Look, HMX used to communicate with us a lot before RB came out, that's why this maddening nothingness now is so annoying! Anyway, if anyone feels the same, chime in.

Before they were leaking a screenshot to the community, talking about finalized details of a mode, or a song that's been included. Now we're talking about announcing research into potential patches/changes? That's a huge difference. Sure, we all miss the interaction with Sean and John, but at the same time, it's understandable that we can't get that right now. The community's changed drastically, and it'll take some time for everything to go back to normal. Deal with it and enjoy the game.

A) Better to keep people in suspense instead of revealing all the answers...

B) Do you honestly think that a member of HMX posting "We have nothing planned for the next couple of weeks" would make people happy? Re-evaluate based on the posts we see around here...

There will be DLC next week. An announcement will go out today or Monday.

Sony's offices are closed next week and the DLC will be postponed for a week until they come back (but they'll be back on schedule the following week when they get a double-dose of DLC awesomeness). It will go up in the Xbox Marketplace as regularly scheduled.

As for what we are planning on fixing and all of that? I am saying nothing until it is all final. You see what happens when things get announced and then due to extenuating circumstances don't pan out? I get drawn and quartered. No thank you.

Cool, thanks for the info. Communication is key.

Wahoo! I assume the DLC will be on Live on Wednesday then?

Monday announcement, eh? Considering my copy of Blue Dragon has been collecting dust since purchases of Bladestorm and Rock Band... I think I can hold out until then. Still, this is great news, thanks, Sean!

Thank you! Now all these threads will stop popping up. Can't wait to see what you guys have in store for us.

Thanks Sean. Keep up the good work.

I use the PS store so I can't wait for the double-dose of awesomeness. It's twice as good as a single dose with half the calories.

Also, the game has been out for a damn month! How many changes do you want? The only reason I'd want a clear vision of the future was if there were some horrible problem with the game like BWT only worked if you had a singer; as it's your favorite game, why don't you just play it and enjoy it for a while? I think Harmonix is crazy for releasing so much DLC right away but more power to 'em.

I'm almost hoping they don't release DLC for a while because I've got so much to play... between most of the upper tier/bonus songs and the three packs I've downloaded (Metallica, Polica and Punk) I need to get sick of everything before I buy anything else, and releasing Who's Next at this point would just be mean. I am but a man, Harmonix.
