I've been in that mess before where infrastructure revamps were postponed because of new features and only when the clients settled down we could do the important work. So this is us, telling them, as much as the people in this thread can, "it's ok. Go for it. It's important to us too."

I have to echo this statement.

I keep seeing places where some limitation or another is hampering what the devs want to do with the game that I feel there needs to be some time spent to improve the underlying issues.



I can see that this would probably impact content releases, and that that wouldn't sit well with some.

But, you can only get so far treating the symptoms, the core issue will need to be resolved.
