Are Pirates being released in the next 3 weeks?

It's kind of annoying how they get almost everything first. ._.
Then in the rare occasions they don't get it first, they get a better version.
We get NLC, few patches later they get their map... with a boss. D:
*Course, CwK might even those two out. xP*

"A few months" after we got NLC, we got the Haunted House... with a boss.

The only potential argument available would be that it required paying money to access at first, but even so, that cost was almost nothing... I think the cheapest option to enter was about 1 dollar in value.

I think a better example would be the 4th job and Leafre situation. They got Leafre, we got crap. They got 4th job, we got crap. Then a few months later, we got all of it at once.

Don't forget they still have to patch in the boss for CWK. Whatever the "challenge for high levels are", probably a boss. What else would it be? >_>

They could easily pair a small expansion of Crimsonwood Keep with other things, like Pirates OR Magatia OR Krakia. Especially if the Keep expansion is just the release of a boss, like when Krexel came out in MSEA.

That said, if Pirates are coming "soon" it will be mid September to coincide with Talk like a Pirate Day. If not then, it'll be December or January. If not then, then Summer of '09.

ps blind people: tespia is NOT USED TO TEST CONTENT. It is used for PUBLIC RELATIONS. ANY BUGS THAT ARE DISCOVERED ARE NOT FIXED BY NEXON WHEN THE CONTENT GOES LIVE IN THE OFFICIAL SERVER. The only way they would is if it's something TOTALLY game destroying. Anything they want to release to the official client without "testing" they can, AND IN DOING SO, IT WOULD NOT BE ANY DIFFERENT THAN IF IT HAD A 2 WEEK "TESTING PERIOD".
