I have to admit this is the latest I can remember notes getting released, I think it's more a matter of the breakneck patch pace than whether or not they care. It's proof enough that they care when they actually provide/read/respond/work off of these forums instead of just always going on what they feel like.
Doesn't make the late notes really ok.
I do forgive them sense I know how hard they're pushing for the sake of making us all happier with the game.
