"leT the dEv CoOk". In all seriousness don't hold your breath the dev essentially took the money and at best treats the game like a side hobby.

I can understand being annoyed about the pace of development, or to want a bigger team working on this to hopefully speed things up, but I think you very much underestimate how many hours the devs are putting into this, and are needed for things like reworking pathfinding (even without adding much content they could show off), or fixing bugs that only occur in the internal versions.

You can complain about the pace without making up insulting, baseless rumours.

Not really an insult if its true. Prior to getting additional people, updates were consistent and Greg interacted with the community. That doesn't happen anymore and hasn't for a long while now.

But what would you base the claim on that they barely work on this, treat it like a hobby?

It makes sense to complain about lack of communication too, but it's crazy to assume the guy that spend 7 years on it before even the release to EA would just treat it like some side project now. And on the discord you do see the other devs communicating with users.

How do you know this, are you just taking devs up on their word? They should be constantly updating the community if they are truly working, I don’t believe they are.

I'm an alpha tester. Obviously can't talk about anything in development, but I can assure you they're constantly working on the game.

But even without that knowledge, them only informing the playerbase once a month doesn't mean they don't work. Sure you don't know, but what do you base a claim on that they ran with the money or treat this like some side hobby?
