I'm going to say right now that SCVI will not be announced in the future at TGS and it will be announced next year only to be released in 2017.
New SOULCALIBUR Title at E3? *EDIT: Hah! Nope

That would be awfully bad marketing. When they said "be patient", I assume they won't wait more than a year before releasing info (because that is reaaaaally bad marketing). When I asked Koinuma about SW4 whereabouts, he said "Please wait a little more" (Aug. 23, 2013), the game was confirmed a month later.
With all the noise around a possible SCVI, they would not be toying around with us with "please be patient" and other polls.
Maybe it won't be announced at E3, but it will be by the end of the year, I'm sure of it. However, I don't mind the announce date, as long as
1. The development is far enough to allow a close release
2. Or they take their time to release the game

Well, you know, Hype is important when it comes to games like this. They want to wait till people almost get bored of waiting then reward their patience with bits of information. Truth.

Well, we've had years of silence: Daishi simplied vanished after his failure, Hoshino barely replies to questions and just keeps posting ecchi costumes that costs 60 bucks. There was no hype built around a sequel, many people have lost faith a long time ago. Then they released that "please be patient" bomb, without anything else, then a poll. The hype was really low, yet it existed. Now people have hope for an announcement at E3, it is the right time to drop a huge bomb and then build the hype around it. Because trying to build hype around something that doesn't even exist isn't really rewarding.
I'm aboard the hype train for GW2: the expansion was announced in January, we had hype weeks, then the hype went down, then it was renewed, etc. They built their hype around something concrete, and I don't mind waiting till december until we get something (since we know the expansion was being worked on for more than 2 years).
So if SCVI was to be announced (at an early or late stage of development), it would help create a hype tht would barely ever go down if they know how to keep it up, even for more than a year.
