Anthem Delays Guilds, Leaderboards, Cataclysm, And Much More
BioWare recently dropped a new update for Anthem players, with many new things being added to the troubled game as well as a bounty of bug fixes. That said, the developers also revealed an updated roadmap for upcoming content, which has unfortunately unveiled delays for some pretty major features.
“While we have delivered many of the Act 1 features on time, we are not going to hit all the goals on our Act 1 Calendar,” the devs said in a recent Reddit post. “We have been prioritizing things like bug fixes, stability and game flow over the new features of Act 1. We set aside time for this work, but the reality is there are more things to fix and improve than we planned for. While this is the best thing to do for the game, it means some items from the calendar will be delayed.”
As for what exactly has been delayed, that list can be found below:
-
Mastery System
-
Guilds
-
Legendary Missions – Phase II
-
Weekly Stronghold Challenge
-
Leaderboards
-
Some Freeplay Events
-
Cataclysm
“A lesson we have learned is we have been talking about things too early,” they said in regards to communication. “There are so many factors that can cause us to pivot on our plans – whether it’s bugs & stability issues, player feedback, or complications with a feature that require us to take more time to deliver it. Our goal is to tell you about new content and features once the work is closer to being done.”
