"4. We do not at this time have anyone doing community relations, which means we spend less time than we’d like to interacting with you, or rather, providing answers to your questions. We are up on these boards every day reading what you have to say, and it does often drive our design decisions and priorities."

They have no-one spending time on community relations at the moment. We know that's a bit of a slap in the face but that's what they are doing, spending all their time on dev work.

And yes, I think he's wrong not to say something about progress.

this answer my question... goodbye communication and news... bah...

come on Chivas, you really cant bring yourself to just agree?

I suppose you'd have to develop something this complex to understand there are always setbacks. We know the team is still working on the project and have plans to support it for many years. Patience is the key word here, but patience isn't the strong suit of the last few generations.

The answer to the One Question will only bring up more questions;

so the One explanation will bring more whines / requests for additional explanations


but I agree for the "I got a fever, and the only prescription is more communication" instead of beatie boys ill communication

It is not about patience, it's about respect in my opinion. Ok, you are not forced to answer to all questions, but when hundreds of people are here every day waiting for a patch, or a small word from a developer that says "no news today guys, we are working hard!!!", I don't think you spend too much time to write this? ah... can i suggest to copy this sentence and save somewhere so luthier can just copy and paste in a post every week? 30 seconds of his time in a week is too much?

He only said he would try.

Well at the age of 40 I'm slowing growing tired of forking over money for games / sims that are unfinished.

There's only so much the paying public should have to put up with. I think it's time the situation was turned around. How about we pay for a product that is actually finished for a change? As I've said before in the deleted thread that was started by Nearmis, I can live with bugs, as I too am a developer (business apps), but how about actually delivering what was promised?

Believe me, customers grow very tired very quickly when you say the application will do one thing, but doesn't deliver as expected after release day.

So now you have had the explanation will you all stop whining about communication & updates?

Somehow i doubt you will 'agree' to keeping your word.

I agree with you, and I do your same job

Why you doubt? don't worry... after the luthier's words I'll spend less time in this forum waiting for a patch or a news, like many others I think....
