Morning all. I need some salt for my breakfast, so thought I'd drop by
i would have thought it was more pepper and chives, something a bit different
Stop reading indications and estimations as promises and your life will be a lot sunnier.
We had all understood the sense of its sentence, of course

FDev Does an outstanding job out there to bring us the Beta. Let's give them some Love and Support
cautious love and support
Yes, feel free to redirect all questions regarding the beta to me.
I have prepared the default response in line with my name.
Soon(TM)
No one among us force FD to give us dates.
If FD has decided to give dates they were plenty confident about their capability to deliver.
OK there was a trouble so they postponed one first time. Fair, everyone could understand. But what is really " a bad move and a bad given date" is the second estimation (if fake is too strong). They took 2 days : Friday and Monday, FD failed again to deliver and this is not good for communication.
For my personal concern, I sincerely prefer no more dates, just a deliver when it's ready instead of frustrating people for nothing.
Really, it is a better way to deliver and avoid all this drama.

Fake dates? They were dates that we originally were aiming for a BETA release for.
The dev team simply found some issues with the beta client. Rather releasing a game client that would be 1) extremely prone to crashing, 2) generally unstable, it was held back so that the remaining bugs could be resolved and wouldn't make it to live. Because let's be honest here, if we shipped beta as it was, this forum would be filled with complaint after complaint about game crashing, networking issues, etc. Which well, wouldn't be helping anyone.
The drama is not coming from FD's side.
Isn't it already?

they are merely keeping us their second or third line of beta testers (internal and private QA first and second) informed, as we will in turn push their changes and content to the limit before 2.3 lands and report any game breaking and minor bugs, which will then be hopefully fixed or corrected before it goes live, they listen to us at this stage of development. And then the game goes live and the less bugs the better for them and us.

it sounds like most of the remaining gamebreakers were in fact networking, and i would except they are pretty close to having those squashed
