I'd be stunned if we got a release announcement when Beta testing hadn't even begun last week. At best I think we might get confirmation beta testing has started, but even that seems optimistic.

Personally, I'd settle for DPC giving us some meaningful numbers this time. That should give us an idea on just how much the animation rendering is accelerating in the home stretch (if at all), and that's going to be the key to when beta testing can start.

As for thingsI feel are likely to happen in the update, in no coherent order:
  • Cutscene with Quinn's dealer
  • Date with Jill
  • D&G session
  • Tommy and the MC dealing with the fallout of the Cathy-cluck judgement (whatever it winds up being)
  • Fun with side-girls (definitely Envy and Cathy, probably some of the HOTs, I doubt Jade yet)
  • Helping Maya & Josy with the Scavenger Hunt (very curious to see how that goes down)
  • Birthday party for MC (at least at school, possibly at home, too)
  • Some sort of revelation about what happened to Bella (surely DPC wouldn't let a title like 'Damage Control' skip that entirely?!)
  • The return of Chad (probably to break up with Sage, but I doubt that will be resolved in Ep 6)
  • HOT evaluation
  • Heather's Putsch (during said evaluation?)
  • Tybalt's meeting with Jill (it was mentioned twice; not sure why but I bet it matters)
  • Jill's concert
  • A background KRJ cameo in class
  • Rusty unmasked as the Tybalt troll account
Admittedly, those last two might be pushing it, but it's late and I'm going slightly stir crazy here.

I hope you are right (apart from KRJ that one day the vaccine will finally arrive and you will recover :oops: :p) but there are already so many events practically certain that it will be really difficult to put something meaningful that carries on the stories of Bella and Sage, by the way the first practically absent in the previews ....

I kindda enjoy the minigames like test, It makes you feel exactly like college, it's so much fun but also, there's a job to do.

PS. As you could easly see, english isn't my mother tonge, so I have a really hard time with the english test hahah I trie to guess as many as possible, but when I give up I use any website used to cheat on Scrabble haha
english is not my first language, but these tests could easily done for 12 years old english boys.

I don't remember, has it been mentioned in the game what major MC is studying in B&R? These English and Math classes are mostly high school material, and I was wondering will we get more specific courses like Programming, Engineering, Economics etc with mini games.

Unless it's somehow dependant on your path, MC explicitly states he's (planning to) study engineering, most obviously when in the scene where MC eats pancakes with Bella and Jill and we find out that Bella may be teaching one of MC's classes in the far future.

  • Fun with side-girls (definitely Envy and Cathy, probably some of the HOTs, I doubt Jade yet)
I'm curious to see what happens for those on the M&J route as to whether or not anything is salvageable with Jade. I've always felt like it could be as there's some easy and believable excuses the MC could make to try and get another shot at Jade, but if he can't no matter what then I guess DPC really will be setting up her and Cathy for the DIK route.

Still think that would be a strange decision though as there really isn't any logical reason in the context of this story why a Neutral or even CHICK MC wouldn't want to do anything with Cathy and Jade.

  • Jill's concert
Kinda curious why this keeps coming up. Did she mention such a thing happening in this upcoming week? If so, then I guess I didn't pay much attention.

Jill mentions having a concert at some point in the near future. Not sure on the time frame.

I’m just finishing up a neutral play through to have Jade set up.

My playthough priority at the moment is;

Neutral - Maya x Josy
DIK - Anybody MC can get his hands on (Including Jade)
Chick - Anyone but focus going towards Bella/ Jill
Neutral - Jade

The problem with the neutral /Jade path is it doesn’t feel right to leave Maya and Josy. It’s one thing on the DIK path when you fuck anything that moves, and don’t get the intimate moments with Maya, but on any play through you turn down Quinn’s Restaurant not winding up with Maya and Josy feels like wasted energy. I might not even bother with that run going forward

I reckon the mini games will never get that specific. After all, he probably wants the average player to pass them, and is probably not interested in recreating the college experience that accurately, lol.

If Jade is permanently closed off (as I suspect, given how Cathy is auto-cutoff as well), it's probably for some sort of play balance reasons; keep equivalent content on different 'paths.'

That said, Jade is a rather vindictive woman. I can see her being pretty pissed when the MC leaves her hanging, especially since the whole point of the tryst was to prove she was still sexy and desirable. The fact he has a 'legitimate' excuse just isn't relevant from her end. (And heaven help the MC if she learns the real reason!)

The preview pic. Jill playing the piano in full formal dress is hard to explain otherwise.

We never learned exactly when the concert was supposed to occur:
jill_concert_1.jpg jill_concert_2.jpg jill_concert_3.jpg jill_concert_4.jpg

It's obviously in the near future, but beyond that it's hard to say. The MC's response implies it's still a ways out, but then again he though his birthday was too and that seems to have been a week away. Given this was back in Episode 3, it does feel like enough time has passed out of game to pay off that plot plot thread so I'm adding it to the list.
