They're trying to hype this up like Capcom did with SFxT's huge omega insane game-changing update. Which isn't working well for them. This is just another typical patch update but with a larger amount of characters, SFxT's update was changes all across the board + HUGE changes to the gameplay. And even then, I'm almost certain we were given a date for that pretty close to the time they announced the update. Meanwhile, we only know 4 characters are getting touched out of the 30-so roster (we don't even know how superman or BA are being hit). We have no idea if all characters are going to have these tiny "tastes of upgrades" or just the ones that need them. Or a date for when this hits.
AND, we have TFC which is REALLY SOON. If they release this patch before TFC, people will flip their shit for obvious reasons. They seriously need to just hit Superman/Black Adam already and tell us when we can expect this patch so we can all rest easy.
