There was only two 'content' features trimmed from 1.5 and several other smaller minor ones that needed more work. So most of the other features for 1.5 are still in such as Squad Finder and the new tutorials.
Just stop IWS. This line is greatly insulting to people who have paid attention.
When the userbase was referring to 1.5 as "the vehicle patch" and then vehicle changes get removed, the patch was not "trimmed" it was gutted. The largest portion of the patch got pushed back, and in its place are some slightly useful features, but nothing terribly important(aside from the tutorials maybe making blues less re.tarded).
Oddly enough, you point about when patches get code locked is interesting. Because if I read it correctly, it was code locked BEFORE we had all those teasers dropped about new weapons coming in 1.5. Which makes it a very interesting decision to let someone makes teaser posts about something that CCP knew wasn't going to be in 1.5.
Oh well, same old same old up in this *****. |

Well they could have easily canceled the whole patch though...
Those are not the only two things that where supposed to be in 1.5, remember 1.5 features were already drafted and decided on nearly two months ago. Finalized around 1.4's release and for reasons stated publically vehicles and guns were cut from 1.5's total feature list.
Given the obvious problems with being able to push content out, maybe they do need to drastically reduce their ambitions.
Obviously they are still dreaming far beyond their abilities as a development house.
If they need to shelve a couple of patches to get things on track they should do it. Don't try and wedge crap into a patch just to get a monthly release out the door.

well development happens nonetheless, I am thankful they did pull it instead of just saying eff it publish it broken. In return you guys are getting some stats pretty soon about the changes that were supposed to go in for the guns and vehicles so that should give the spreadsheet fu guys something to theorycraft with.
I hate to be Captain pessimist, but I've heard that one before as well. Remember the spreadsheets we were suppossed to get before Uprising. Yeah, those didn't turn out so well did they?
I really hope that these things are accurate, however I am going to be pragmatic and assume it won't happen, or the info will be grossly incomplete.
I am really annoyed that I have to approach their work with such pessimism. |
