Come On... When Will XY/BW Be Available?? Expanded with Friends??

I was hoping something would be mentioned in the letter to the community, but as always, this is ignored.

When are the Expanded sets coming out already? At least add them one at a time. It's really irritating to be promised that we are going to eventually get access to them for you to never give us that access. This is very low.

And can we already play Expanded with our friends yet? When can we do that?

    When PTCGL was in beta the cards were accidentally added in a update. You literally could play some but it was fixed.

    Agreed. It's hypocritical.

    The most baffling thing about TCGL is how it restricts the battle environment between friends – you can only play Standard format when gaming with friends?

    Please add support for Expanded friend battles. This feature is what I want most from this game.
