clarification regarding Version Update schedule?

[blowfin]

Roadmap was posted April 8th. Now, while it's possible the image was in development prior to the tsunami, releasing it without consideration of that seems kind of... I dunno, unprofessional. After all, we wouldn't know what would've been pushed back as a direct result and we kind of assumed April's update being pushed back was a direct result and thus more or less the end of it.

Who is this "we" you're referring to?

I honestly wouldn't expect them to get back anywhere close to the original schedule until later this year to be perfectly blunt. If they EVER get back onto the schedule outlined in that roadmap. What was it 2 or 3 weeks taken out of development time by rolling blackouts and power shortages? That's a MASSIVE amount of time to make up in 2 months.

And no, crystal balling near nuclear meltdown and rolling blackouts isn't really in most game companies repertoire of risk modelling.

P.S. We got a free month for a very good reason. Stop whining.

And my wallet thanks them for that ^^

It's not whining. It's a valid question.

If the earthquake was a factor into this, then it really wouldnt be that hard for them to post a revised roadmap to account for the delay.

Who is this "we" you're referring to?

Anyone who's ever voiced a concern, question, or opinion on the game here, on fan sites, or within the game itself? Rather bluntly, we want to digest any and all info we can get. It helps keep us interested. It helps excite us about the future. It also lets us be critical when we receive something we don't like, or in some cases, don't receive.

It's not whining. It's a valid question.

If the earthquake was a factor into this, then it really wouldnt be that hard for them to post a revised roadmap to account for the delay.

Or have withheld the roadmap until they'd edited to account for the tsunami and its related events, which is largely my assumption on its release as April 8th had been a few weeks after. Otherwise, my stab at the unprofessional would've been them releasing something they knew was wrong only to hope we wouldn't notice, or in some cases, have people defend them and be apologetic about it as we could've easily waited if they just said, "Hey guys, we had this road map outlined, but because of, you know, we need a few more days to revise it." Casual paraphrasing, sure, but you get the point.

and the roadmap has already been revised
The"may" update was planed for april
If they updated that i think they can have update every update (or they just get extra delay because all little fixe they did since)
