Is there a schedule like path for add ons, content patches, balance patches and so on?
I just like to know, Dust514 is not even half finished and (if you ask me) should not left the beta. But well, now it is here, but without content. So I was wondering, who frequently will CCP patch this GÇ£released beta clientGÇ¥ with all this promising sweets like PVE, all drop suits (IGÇÖm not even talking here about the advanced. just basics, you know, all heavyGÇÖs, all lights), vehicles and so on. Things that a complete game should includeGÇª

But well, letGÇÖs stop the trolling for a short moment: Dear CCP, you have a rough plan for patching this game, like GÇ£once in a month, several content crumbsGÇ¥? Or will you wait and collect till you have a significant amount of chances before delivering? Do you plan on releasing a bigger content patch around the same time where eve gets their half year add ons? How would you like to handle the balancing patches? More frequent or orientating on with the content patches? Is there a roadmap somewhere where we can see, what you are doing, and what is in the short, mid and long-term plan? If not, do you plan to make one?

Now that I have asked this, would you like to know what I like to see asap? Group PVE content. What would you, dear reader, like to see asap?

Greetings

We have yet to see anything like a fixed schedule. Even a rough idea of release schedule would be nice, even if dates slipped and they had to revise. Just so we could... ballpark things I guess.

Just so we could... ballpark things I guess. Altho that sounds nice, it'd probably be worse. Look at how people reacted to the respecs announcement, CCP said it might've be on Monday, but plans could change. (so it was just an estimate from the beginning.) They also mention later on it wasn't going ot be specifically on Monday. What happens on Monday? "OMG CCP TROLL" "CCP lied to us again!" "CCP FAIL" Tons of people were freaking out within the first hour the servers were back up on Monday. People complaining CCP was lying and they were cheated, all over the place, saying stuff like "why did they even tell us Monday if they can't do it" or "Don't promise what you can't deliver." I mean, if they get that kind of backlash for a slight delay on the optional respecs, imagine how people will react for multiple delays to big content announcements? From CCP, I prefer not know when they plan stuff to go live, or I know I'll be left waiting for it, while if they keep it from us until they KNOW its ready, we just have to wait the short amount of time it takes to release from then.
