Lemondish Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Has anyone done the math on how many rumors they get right? What does it matter? We'll know soon enough. Modulate your expectations accordingly.

War Angel Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Has anyone done the math on how many rumors they get right? What does it matter? We'll know soon enough. Modulate your expectations accordingly. Because people say they are unreliable. So how often have they been wrong? If they are wrong then they likely made the rumors up. But something stats the rumor.

But something stats the rumor.I don't think anybody actually makes up rumours to post. I think they simply post what they hear. And I don't think it's really relevant if they're right given how vague they are. Ultimately, we know a codex is coming, and realistically the only thing we can do with this information is predict that we'll get new information shortly.

War Angel Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Saying late August isn’t vague. It’s fairly specific. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357173-codex-space-marines-20-speculation-discussion/page/6/#findComment-5350365 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because people say they are unreliable. So how often have they been wrong? If they are wrong then they likely made the rumors up. But something stats the rumor. It's not that they are necessarily wrong but way too often they just post the "topic of the week/month" in the community as rumours. Or just take something everybody who follows the news knows is likely to happen at some point and post it as newsbreaking rumour.

Marshal Vespasian Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 On the other hand they posted about apocalypse and two New tanks when no one else was even thinking about that.

Subtleknife Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Well hopefully we will know a bit more on the 23 july if that person was right about the primaris vid. The twitter account is still posting every day.

Jorin Helm-splitter Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I would be surprised if they didn't show something on the 23rd, if for no other reason then to get 40k players looking at War Cry.

Maritn Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Or maybe on the 24th, as that was said to be the next episode. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357173-codex-space-marines-20-speculation-discussion/page/6/#findComment-5350584 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_Shift Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 There used to be a rumour tracker on dakka but I think the chap that kept it updated has retired from the task. It must have been arduous. It's a rumour I believe in either case as it fits. We are likely to see some reveals next weekend and then late August fits as we have warcry, necromunda enforcers and potentially aeronautica in between.

Marshal Vespasian Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 If I am not mistake gencon will be on the first weekend of August and Nova open on the last. So timing releases/Annoncements to coincide with those two would be fitting. There is also still the BSF Box with a bunch of cultists to be released.

I don't think it's as necessary because GW basically shows us the major stuff about three months out or earlier if it's a big release.

TheTrans Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 What they'll do is release the new codex next to a campaign book like vigilus.But just like the Chaos dex, they'll update a few unit profiles, then leave all the new relics, chapter tactics and :cuss to only the campaign book so you have to buy both.

Sete Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 These days I aint buying stuff before I see the full contents of a release. Gathering Storm burned me badly. No pre orders. Are we having a reveal tomorrow?

Jorin Helm-splitter Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 I would think either Tuesday or Wednesday the primaris lieutenant podcast skit they did for the fuzzy picture release was called episode 723, so its possible the next one is on 724.

Of course gw will hype a new release but their stuff is not that limited that preorders are necessary Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357173-codex-space-marines-20-speculation-discussion/page/6/#findComment-5350927 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally wouldn't put much stock in this because the date format doesn't fit. In America, 7/24 is July 24th, but in most of the rest of the world 7/24 is just some weird 7th day of a strange 24th month. But then again, the video did put a ton of stock in the lieutenant vs leftenant pronunciation, and the conflict produced there was hilarious. Since that is also a chiefly American (albeit from the French) thing, I guess anything can happen.

Marshal Rohr Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Maybe they use the American dates because it’s the largest and most important market for the company.

Marshal Rohr Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 75% of GW Revenue is overseas. I think it goes US, All of Europe combined, Aus/NZ within that 75%. US and Europe are pretty close, but iirc the US edges out Europe by a few percentage points every year.

But since Europe and US use the same dating format it would make more sense to not go with the US format?

Brother Casman Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Alternatively, GW is using the ISO standard of yyyy/mm/DD, just dropping the year off the front. Anyway, the discussion of date formats is probably a little off topic, eh? ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357173-codex-space-marines-20-speculation-discussion/page/6/#findComment-5351528 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 It doesn't really matter either. They could have gone out of their way and used a date format without following any specific logic. As long as it applies to any known date format it's a possible hint that something might come then. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357173-codex-space-marines-20-speculation-discussion/page/6/#findComment-5351530 Share on other sites More sharing options...
