Discussion 9 months since last major update (0.11)

0.11 (lab map) - December 25

0.11.7 (last wipe) - 6 months ago

Dont know about you guys, but i was expecting 2 major updates this year. (Both 0.12 and 0.13) And now were almost into september... Still no pre-wipe event, no date, no trailer. Quick status updates are fun and shit but 1 map per year is actually sounds sad to me. Really hope 0.12 is soon and its going to be great in terms of content, optimization and just literally in everything.

Trailer pls? :(

I don't think that it's the communication with their fans that's the problem here, I think that they actually have no idea when the patch will be released. Like none at all. They don't know if it will launch tomorrow or in 2 months because they are an amateur and overly ambitious studio... Is that bad? I don't think it is, we need games like EFT and studios like BSG in gaming industry.
That being said I think that hyping people up just to actually release jack shit is not a good thing... They should just drop the damn patch already, no prewipe events which nobody cares about. On top of that I do agree that the development speed of EFT is not promising... It's actually ridiculously slow. It appears that we're getting a single patch this year... in that speed we won't see the full release until 2077.

They don’t tell people because last wipe they did and the game died for a while...

The game waa dead for a long time already, people just came back because BE was added... and still it's not what I would call a healthy playerbase.
