All good things take a little bit of time to get done right. This seems like a lot healthier of an estimation for a road map as well. The first one seemed a little overly ambitious

No worries, you guys are doing great and made a fantastic game. :)

It will be worth the wait. Love the game so far. Keep it up team!

Completely agree, better to wait for a working product then push something broken. Not many devs in my 30+ years of gaming have been as transparent and attentive to their gamer's as you guys have.

There are some complaints in this thread about fixing core issues and then other comments about adding more features, you can't have both at the same time. This is a good balance. If the features are not coming fast enough there's always the option to come back early next year.

If you wanna see angry gamer's responding to updates you only need to head over to the Dual Universe forums and read the comments from gamer's on their updates - it's not pretty.

Oww, good example! Those guys really turned it around after all the hype and fallout would of destroyed most people and companies, it was that Dunkirk mentality that saw them win their war.

Take your time guys. You got this.

Not that I didn't expect this cause the team pretty much always gets stuff out behind schedule, but Jesus you're pushing everything back a month? Was it just an issue of not expecting so many fixes to be needed on release?

Id rather have bug fixes and systems working before new stuff for sure.

Calm down bro. It's not like you have a month left to live (I hope). These things take time. If you're so impatient, make your own Starbase :^)

please, listen to your community. You need to work on fixing your core gameplay items, just look at your discord. big flashy updates can wait, it doesn't matter as long as your core such as EZbuild is a mess and bugs on during tutorial driving your new players away immidiately, or your ships randomly exploding when leaving a base (sure you get a coupon if you ask nicely, but only for the BP you specify. any update outside ssc is gone), or the annoying utility tool blueprint. or pipes showing as wires in ssc sometimes making your 50 hour design failing. Please, look at your discord and use all the things we give to you hoping to keep the game alive.

better late than buggy :p

I feel like there are a couple simple features that are much less work to do which would vastly improve the game. Like being able to spawn in on a moved ship or update an existing ship's blueprint after you edit it.

get to an easy build mode area, activate easy build mode, deactivate it, your ship's blueprint is updated :)

Great, I am super happy with bug fixes, therefore new features are also nice to come up a little bit later later. From my perspective more stability is a very important long term feature, so you/Frozenbyte are doing very smart priorization.

rip population was fun while it lasted...

hate the be the bearer of bad news.... but 2 major updates a month seemed like too much. but now u delayed something ur working on for another 2 months ???? because of a week or two at launch? which btw still major issues which mostly seem to revolve around easy build!!! why not just add modules to ship designer? any casual could pop modules together. instead u made a WHOLE new TRASH program to make ships with, that most ppl are currently forced to not use. then u took away ALOT of the station stuff for some easy build station system that, has ANYONE liked?

i dont mind u guys taking forever on stuff.... BUT why dont u give the players still putting up with these serious issues something to do? why dont we have massive stations we can build like i KNOW u could in closed testing/alpha? i mean "working" aside, i cant even seem to find any info on how much what "level" of capital ship is going to ROUGHLY cost me and in what things!

currently i see no reason to play this game?! why dont u give us a reason to play ur game. something we can work ON or towards!!!!
