PDX is a Swedish based company so they have summer breaks that last a few weeks. Based off last dev diary I wouldn't expect dev diaries till late August or Early September.

For reference:

Last year (2019) they resumed dev diaries (after ending them June 12th) on August 21st

The year before that (2018) they resumed dev diaries August 8th after ending dev diaries July 11th (this was mid production cycle)

In 2017 they resumed August 16th after pausing June 28th.

Yep before August we don´t wanna hear from them. And then Week for Week with Dev Dirays and later with Gameplayvids from the Version 1.10 and DLC ???? first.

:D Can´t wait to see them and what have changed for the new Version in the Airforce-Part with R & D as well as Upgrades from older Equipment, the Colonys the Devs have not yet done there (British-Malaya, Frensh-Indochina, etc.) as well as the same for not yet done Japanise Islands.

And a little bit later the Patch 1.11 "Barbarossa" and DLC ????? with the overworkd UdSSR, forgotten East-European States (Slovenia after the seperation from Tshech, Bulgaria, Letivia, etc.) as well as in the Army-Part with R & D as well as Upgrades from older Equipment.

For reference:

Last year (2019) they resumed dev diaries (after ending them June 12th) on August 21st

The year before that (2018) they resumed dev diaries August 8th after ending dev diaries July 11th (this was mid production cycle)

In 2017 they resumed August 16th after pausing June 28th.

This year they ended June 4th (4th Anniversary patch) respectively April 15th (the last "real" one) - so yes, it's about time.

P.S. I'm a bit afraid what happens in the Forum when they announce that they will do Italy in small patch before the Soviet Union. The artillery barrage at the start of Bagration will be remembered as a gentle breeze compared with that upcoming shitstom. :cool:

Podcat has said that the lack of Dev Diaries will continue until morale in the community improves. He also said that every time someone asks about Dev Diaries, he takes an NF out of the new Soviet focus tree they are planning and instead gives it to Italy, text and all.
