Nonsense. It does mean that they're not going to submit to every demand for information, especially from bits of the community that have a vastly elevated level of self-importance.
E3 - 2019

I’m not asking about them now, I want to know personally about you, if they don’t say anything either by 2021 or by 2022, will you continue to "tell you how they can" or not? Believe me, I do not ask you for a lengthy article as an answer, I am interested in the short word "yes" or "no"
Well ... yes, this is a matter of perspective. Someone considers himself important enough to know the truth, someone is the opposite, he considers himself too insignificant for receiving attention at all. perspective
The current release area is second half of 2020. Hence, any time up to December 31st 2020.
If they haven't said anything by end of March 2020 then I will suspect that something's up. Which doesn't mean I'd be right, just that I'd start to get a bad feeling.

If you bought the game from Steam or off the shelf at Tesco then, I hate to tell you this, they don't owe you anything. They certainly don't need to treat you like Charlie Bucket with a Golden Ticket.
It's interesting that you started off blaming FD, but now have progressed on to blaming the community.
I wonder when you'll turn your sharply analytical mind to focus on yourself?
Not sure what all the fuss is about FD have consistently refused to speak of the future. The only difference is the future has been leaked and we know they have 'planned' to release legs, house building and some automated SRV's which would suggest your crew will be able to take a SRV for a spin.
That said, it will not change the way FD communicate. I've been here a long time and not once has FD communicated with the community until the last cut of beta code is finished.

Well, see, it was not at all difficult, I will say the same. if the fd make an announcement before the end of this year, I will create a post in which I acknowledge that I was wrong and apologize.
why? because you need to be able to admit your mistakes
you know you will never doing that.
I was not here when that happened but if community reacted badly to some content or feedback probably it was because they were heading to the wrong direction? They should have listened to the community rather then shutting the door and proceeding anyway. I know many people in this community is disappointed because Horizons took too much time to deliver its contents and these contents were not so interesting to many. On the other side a lot of people was hyped for legs, atmospheric planets and deeper gameloops which have been not considered at all in the last 3 years (more than half of the game life). To me it's obvious the FDEV with Horizons did not listen to the community and proceeded on their train. That's not a positive attitude, considering that Horizons was only the first season... The first example was not so brilliant, that's why some people don't trust them or is just pessimistic towards whatever they say or do.

Very occasionally this is the right thing to do. Mostly it isn't - which part of the community do you listen to? Who's to say what is or isn't a 'wrong direction'?
Doooom.
In this specific case people were asking for things promised during the kick starter, so compatible to the original vision of the game and not something else.
FDEV changed direction working on something else that no one asked or expected. They tried something different and the feedback was not positive. That is an important sign that you can't ignore.
In this case, and only in this case, the solution would have been easy: I would have make one step back and return on the original plan.

Engineers I think they've got just about right (mats availability notwithstanding).
The others? Yeah...not great.
But true
That's one opinion.
Not the only one
