yeah but the issue is that Nova has (to our knowledge) not been greenlit yet, you need some hype to get things off the ground
If I say "you've got to check out this amazing game we're making, where your actions will have real consequences and wars can be fought on many fronts across the New Eden universe"
or
"You've got to check out this amazing game we're making, the shooter mechanics are as good as COD"
I know which project I would approve

The last thing this needs is any hype. Once it's in place and established, we can start to look at what we'd all like to happen. But I promise you the current thinking is to make sure the horse that's going to pull the cart is up to the task before even building the cart. They tried the other way and what happened on the 30th was the result.
Hype is not a bad word, you want people to get excited about your projects, to generate interest and get people to playing (which is especially important in F2P) its only an issue if you're lying out of your arse about what you can achieve.
I'm not saying those features have to be in the game at launch or anywhere near completed, the point is as long as there is roadmap in place and people know the expected timeline then you can sell the grand vision.
edit
People we 'happy' to endure the bad gameplay because they believed in SoonTM, that was until the Legion announcement turned it into Never

Some might be happy to do so, CCP is unwillingly to make you have to endure anything, other than a wait for more news I'm afraid.
Because it's not going to get made
