I am curious as to what we will see this week, if anything.

Are the topics normally done on a weekly or bi-weekly basis? I cannot remember what the schedule normally is.

Perhaps they are delaying telling us so they can finish up some things? Perhaps they are all too busy preparing beta?

Seems like the topics are weekly now. They used to be bi-weekly, but I think they have stepped it up post GDC. Maybe it's somewhere in between, like 3 weeks a month or so, depending on what else they have going on.

Really can't wait for MAX week. That tease has been just about as bad as the beta tease.

The topics have been weekly recently - originally they were bi-weekly.

The current (very important word) plan is to have something for you guys this week. We know you guys are enjoying the theme weeks and we will continue to do those as much as we can.

I think he meant the word plan was important, as in he can't guarantee anything.

APPROVE!

Seriously though - I want to see how each class armor looks on a female character.

I know my VS char will be female, but the question is my main char- NC. Used to play only male chars, but now I'm playing mostly female - it mostly looks better or at least it's more pleasant to look at (male char if I go immersion, like Skyrim, for example). So in PS2 case - infiltrator should look better on females, especially TR lol

If you ever run out of ideas, here are some:

Beta Week

Music Week
Base Week
Outpost Week
Gameplay Week
Mission (or Command) Week
Sunderer/Lightning Week
Resource Week
Aircraft Week
Female Week

"Current (very important word) Plan"

Definitely means one of three things.

Current is the operative word.
Plan is the ending of the 'very important word' aka (beta plan, ect.)

Or it just means at this moment it's only in the beginning stages of planning and he doesn't want to give false promises.

And there I thought that what he meant was straigthforward...

Gotta admit it's some quite impressive PR skills right there. I think Radar just bested any single Blizzard community managers at cryptic meanings and announcing something that could be anything.

PS2 is in good hands !

There are more than 4 Devs, shouldn't Dev "week" continue?

We could just take what he said at face value and assume that we might not have a theme week if nothing is approved by dev team.

That is just crazy talk.

We must analyze every single word for any possible hidden meaning.

I'm fairly certain those will continue but we want to save some devs for later.

Considering that is likely the first 50 replies every time they tweet or Facebook something, I'm surre they are aware we want beta.
