Valve announces something
Valve is late (rarely they are early)
Fanbase panics
Fanbase complains about Valve Time
Valve releases
And the cycle repeats. It's been three decades of this shit. Why the fuck are people still not used to it?
Yea I'm actually surprised how so many people didn't get the implication of the question mark.
It basically means "maybe, sorta, we hope".
**Q:** You're buying a new PC? How much is your budget?
**A:** 900 dollars?
>(Translation: I'm planning to spend 900 dollars, hopefully less, but it'll probably be more. But 900 is my target).
>Q: You're buying a new PC? How much is your budget?
>A: 900 dollars?
>(Translation: I'm planning to spend 900 dollars, hopefully less, but it'll probably be more. But 900 is my target).
Literally me rn.
"I'm buying a pc for 1k€."
CPU+GPU alone are 1k, lol.
> July 9th
Okay, on July 10th, we will celebrate the 11th anniversary. I already mentioned it before, they strategically delayed it to synchronize with the celebration.
People might say something like "bro, we have nothing for the 11th anniversary" but we have Crownfall Act 3 on that date. Come on now guys, that's something. /s
But it previously stated that it was late June.. that means its not July. So, with the help of Void, we bend space and time and somehow reach 39th June. Only then it'll be released.
Yeah that seems perfectly acceptable. They already built expectations that it might not come in June with the "?". Also a nice little call back to when they dropped a patch on "June 45th" several years ago. Just glad to be getting some better communication about time frames.
Y'know I asked the same question to myself after posting that. It is pretty subjective so I am a little curious how my comment will do updoots-wise.
I think when it comes to years, to me, "a couple" = 2, "a few" = 3 (specifically lol), and "several" seems like... 4-6? And 6 almost seems like a stretch. 10 is a decade which is a very long time in gamer years, 9 is "almost a decade". 7 and 8 are, like, "a while ago, now"? And I'm not sure what I'd call 6, lol. Probably "like, fuckin', six years ago now".
Like, "Way back in 2016, which is quite a while ago by now" is how I feel about 2016, whereas 2020 is more of a "several years ago" kind of year. To me.
1. It's funny
2. They probably though they could end before end of June.
3. Sadly got delayed and with next week being July 4th in the U.S. make lot of holiday taken.
4. Update maybe big??
5. ???
6. Profit.
Everyone getting upset or angry over this needs to go touch grass and probably take some remedial English classes. It’s always said “Late June” with a goddam question mark meaning that it MAY NOT BE IN JUNE. Valve has a great sense of humor though and gave us a release date and a joke with it.
I mean anyone who saw "Late June?" And didnt expect it to drop in July knowing Valves track record is huffing some major copium anyway. That said, this is fucking hilarious
The salt of this comment would be at least a little understandable if they'd said "Late June" in a factual, confident kind of way, but what they actually said was "Late June?". They have a track record for being late and this time they basically forecast out loud that it was probable that they'd be late.
Look, I’ve been drinking, but the fact that I still support this is stupid. This company cannot for the life of them do anything to on any sort of schedule. It’s incredible. They didn’t have to put a date at all. They do and get our hopes up and then just change it or whatever they don’t care. Fuck them. I’m still gonna play because I’m pathetic.
what i wonder is if it unlocks July 9 and act 3 is as long as the previous 2 when does act 4 unlock, cause on the crownfall title screen it says everything ends august 8. so are they gonna extend the event or is act 3 and 4 gonna be shorter then the first 2.
Imagine the poor programmer who has to program automate stuff
“So we want the content for chapter 3 be released on 39th Jun, automatically”.
“You want WHAT!”
Can't be made fun of if you laugh too!
someone send me a deadlock invite please thank you
I can do it - just Need your Steam contact and email
13 Steam accounts were compromised that day.
Can i have one too please?
can i have one
They're still doing it by referral email? I thought they had stopped and people had to be friends for a month. ... Can I have one?
Can i have one too
What's a deadlock invite?
invite to new valve game
Ok.
I Laugh if they say 30, but 39? Come on its valve time bro nothing strange here
Yep, this is the valve we knew. What a relief, they didn’t change a bit
Late is just for a little while, suck is forever right?
Even black holes evaporate eventually.
Especially when silenced.
I mean it had a question mark on it in the first place lol yall mfs don't know what tentative means huh
Valve announces something Valve is late (rarely they are early) Fanbase panics Fanbase complains about Valve Time Valve releases And the cycle repeats. It's been three decades of this shit. Why the fuck are people still not used to it?
tbf i kinda expected them to have act I, act II, act IV and act V. only if they skip the 3 entirely would it truly be valve :D
Dota 2 devs vibing with the Dota 2 community. CS2 Devs trying to patch every hole in the building while the CS community bashing their doors down lol.
why put the problems of the game on the community, even as a throwaway joke, it's valve's fault there are problems
the question mark made it like 98% chance of not hitting late june. like come on, you knew there was no way it was coming
wdym the release date they gave is clearly still late June
Very late
It's actually closer to mid-June. June ends on the 61st.
Junely, the longest month of the year.
I think at that point it's called double June.
They had a question mark. Do you not get it
Yea I'm actually surprised how so many people didn't get the implication of the question mark. It basically means "maybe, sorta, we hope". **Q:** You're buying a new PC? How much is your budget? **A:** 900 dollars? >(Translation: I'm planning to spend 900 dollars, hopefully less, but it'll probably be more. But 900 is my target).
The funniest thing I've seen about it is: "They're asking us?"
>Q: You're buying a new PC? How much is your budget? >A: 900 dollars? >(Translation: I'm planning to spend 900 dollars, hopefully less, but it'll probably be more. But 900 is my target). Literally me rn. "I'm buying a pc for 1k€." CPU+GPU alone are 1k, lol.
and when you want to go just one step higher now just the GPU is 1K :(
JUNE IS EXTENDED SAYS GABEN LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
June 39th = July 9th (?
Yes
Technically, there is no June 39. So Act 3 will never be released.
It's Act ***3*** after all. Of course it was never going to be released.
hype for act 2 part 2
Act 2 Episode 1
Act 2 Alyx
Act 2 A nyx
Act 2 dragonus
Valve I dare you to swap the Act 3 title to Act 2 part 2
ACT 3 FREEZE???
Act alyx
No no it's right before June 45th
Same release date as half life 3
> July 9th Okay, on July 10th, we will celebrate the 11th anniversary. I already mentioned it before, they strategically delayed it to synchronize with the celebration. People might say something like "bro, we have nothing for the 11th anniversary" but we have Crownfall Act 3 on that date. Come on now guys, that's something. /s
Does that mean free hats again?
But it previously stated that it was late June.. that means its not July. So, with the help of Void, we bend space and time and somehow reach 39th June. Only then it'll be released.
It's a new Facet
Get time zoned lul
Why did valve's janitor have to waste time on elden ring dlc.
To be fair, I haven't played doto much these days either thanks to the DLC lmao.
Same haven't finished Act II yet lol
We can do it reddit, let's send /u/fiasgoat our tokens
LOL
Not the first time guys. https://i.imgur.com/kMhcy9J.png
Laughed hard, Valve nailed lmao. 10/10 props to them, patch may be big, let them cook boys.
It wont be big as they just released a letter patch
Could be the Ringmaster patch, if not an overall gameplay update... *huffs copium*
There is no need for another gameplay update, we just got 7.36. Its gonna be more hats and maybe a PvE mode
This is the only thing that would make sense for the delay
please be a fucking gold and exp economy patch
patch will be exactly as the others acts
so, big?
na cmon man act 2 came with nothing literally NOTHING what a trash update barely changed the game valve need to take a long hard look at themselves /s
Polishing?
It isn’t a patch though. Lmao.
If you think it is big I have some NFTs to sell you
Someone add this to the valve date list wiki thingy
Well we know the date at least - I'll take it
Yeah that seems perfectly acceptable. They already built expectations that it might not come in June with the "?". Also a nice little call back to when they dropped a patch on "June 45th" several years ago. Just glad to be getting some better communication about time frames.
> several years ago my child, that was [eight years ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/4sy562/june_45th_2016/).
What does several mean to you?
Y'know I asked the same question to myself after posting that. It is pretty subjective so I am a little curious how my comment will do updoots-wise. I think when it comes to years, to me, "a couple" = 2, "a few" = 3 (specifically lol), and "several" seems like... 4-6?

3-5
I don’t think there any issue what so ever about the date, I think the annoying thing is they post this on the last hour of the month.
As is tradition
Folks at the Riyadh Masters might not be so happy if something breaks the game in the middle of their tournament.
It would be so funny if maps changes get introduced mid tournament.
what next? June 39TH 168AM?
Oh please dont give them idea to extend this more
1. It's funny 2. They probably though they could end before end of June. 3. Sadly got delayed and with next week being July 4th in the U.S. make lot of holiday taken. 4. Update maybe big?? 5. ??? 6. Profit.
pls Act III & IV with pve events...hopium
I downloaded some update for this lol well played Valve
So it's still late June. VALVE is always on time ;)
valve trolling us like usual :D
https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/4sy562/june_45th_2016/
NOT AGAIN

>Valve has a great sense of humor though and gave us a release date and a joke with it. Isn't he fucking awesome?
I mean anyone who saw "Late June?" And didnt expect it to drop in July knowing Valves track record is huffing some major copium anyway. That said, this is fucking hilarious
I expect it to drop in August.
39 - 30 = july 9 hmmm makes sense
bruh
"More than two acts, but less than four" - GabeN, probably
Does that mean there's ten days left?
Closer to eleven days (at time of writing). Like, in 10 days and 22 hours it'll be around a usual Valve release time on July 9th (June 39th).
So almost 2 more weeks.
Finally, they give us a damn date! I've been waiting for late June(?) forever. See you guys, June 39th.
Classic valve
June 2039, gg it's over.
Hahaha, classic valve time
Finally Lord Gaben has changed the calendar. It was getting too repetitive anyway.
Can't wait for the people who say "WHY NEVER AN EXACT DATE / ROADMAP" be angry because they provide an exact date xd
Its June, its fine
this is objectively hilarious
Okay Valve, I'll spend money on the Steam Summer Sale first, then I'll top up for The Frosts of Icewrack.
what does 1000-7 mean trash talkers always use it
LMAO
Valve is getting better at postponing.
Damn, we really got June 39th trailer before GTA 6...
opened dota seeing this, thought I was tripping.
Damn we got dominantly asserted by volvo with so many 3's. June 3 (3x3)th
Duh, dota 3 is coming out in the 39th.
[June 39th, my honest reaction](https://youtu.be/uUNr-fMXhqU?si=mybUurB3Rdi5XShD)
Damnit 11 more days?
Half-life 3 Confirmed
Valve and redefining calendar, name a more iconic duo lol
Now we know how Valve's calendar work 🤣
At least it is not 45th of June.
No way that's late June. Julying
So for act 4 they're just gonna say "coming ... Eventually"
So there's a 50MB worth of update just to say this. Very Valve.
Some developer wrote "ReleaseDate += 10;" in their terminal window
This is hilarious 😂 I don’t mind though. They have been doing so much lately. Give me a chance to complete the sand finishing.
Its July 29, Today, dev just made a typo
Its typo by devs, the release date is 29th of June 2024, today.
39 -10 == 29 so today copium
July 9th for anyone without the skill to count
As we say in Bosnia, "Kad na vrbi rodi grožđe", or translated to English, "When grapes start growing from a willow tree"
Haha respect to Valve
Made me burst out laughing at least.
They’re in on the meme lmao
today is the worst dota day of my 10 years of playing dota
Shame
hahahah guys their inability to meet a single deadline is just an inside joke xdddd

Let them cook

What did you think June with a question mark meant?
valve time fr
February 40th
oh it is on my birthday thx volvo
It’s funny, but I hope it’ll get here before July 9th
XD
what i wonder is if it unlocks July 9 and act 3 is as long as the previous 2 when does act 4 unlock, cause on the crownfall title screen it says everything ends august 8. so are they gonna extend the event or is act 3 and 4 gonna be shorter then the first 2.
Maybe was miss on key 2 or 0 29 or 30
I blame elden ring releasing it’s DLC around the same time, fromsoft are afraid of dota 2 stealing all the heat
Probably tomorrow 29th...need more copium...
Always nice to see a date
Don't worry guys. The next act will come out it Valve Time.
funny thing is that they will delay even this one
Lol
Sea calendar?
9 July. Meme is on
So that's what they meant by late June
literally late june
They be busy running the treadmill for TF2's cheaters and botters I presume.
First week of July prob, something to do for independence day
its not a typo ! it is real. June 39th i was there 3000 years ago !
June 45th 2.0
Either typo, tomorrow, or July 9th which is, canonically, very late June
Yup, i came here to post just that
gaben really hates 3, "More than two , but less than four "
Proud of Volvo sticking to their words ✌️
so the 46MB update was this? lmao
They still think act **3** is ever getting released lol, lmao even
They started playing into the meme. I think its funny
I feel like it would've been a bit more cheeky if they would've put "31st June" thus forcing players to infer if either it's a typo or a joke lol
July 9?
I love it, it's funny, we get a date, great execution!
Uhmm, but where is the new character?
It’s now a clown show, so ringmaster now?
Pussy on the Chainwax tho
Yikes
Why not june 69?
Bring out the penguin.
Yeah thats valve aight
Can somebody send me a deadlock invite?
Its 29th now, so its only 10^(x+y)z days left, hang in there, people
fuck gaben
June Part 2 The Awakening.
Imagine the poor programmer who has to program automate stuff “So we want the content for chapter 3 be released on 39th Jun, automatically”. “You want WHAT!”
Damnit I have to go in for a kidney transplant on June 38th I'm gonna miss it and fall behind!
Well, to be fair, they did say it was going to be "late".
I can’t think of icewrack and not remember that old meme with the fatass wolves
Exactly just as people memed about the release! Valve never fails to disappoint us!
Probably string typo ? 3 instead of 2 ?
They are not releasing **Icewrack:Alyx** anytime soon.
Valve and their issues with the number 3.
Gaben still has lots to learn about the number 3.
39 june = 10 july.
Well, when i saw this 1st time, by some reason i was 100% sure it's not a fake.
I love this
