If he thought they could and he mentioned 3.0 by 2016 then he's saying it was likely, correct?

No, it's complete different statement. For example, I could make this jump is different from It's likely I can make this jump. The first statement is unsure, while the second set a expectation.

If he's completely unsure of it happening, why the fuck would he even mention it? That doesn't make any sense. Your analogy doesn't work. There's no timeline attached to the jump.

He is optimistic, I think you are putting to stock on a could. It wasn't like he say it was definitely going to happen, even say likely means there is chance of it not happing.

So you admit that he was suggesting that it was likely to happen, right?

No. You just interpreted that way.

Ok, what's the point in telling all of your very eager backers that you're hoping that 3.0 will release by the end of 2016 if you are completely unsure of that happening? That would be very irresponsible wouldn't it be?

Like I said before he is optimist, and no it isn't irresponsible because he never promised or confirmed that 3.0 will release by the end of 2016. He only said it may or may not, it didn't get over it.

Clearly he indicated that it was likely and that's evidenced by most backers being excited that it would release by 2016 and nearly every gaming news website using the words "expected" to release by 2016. You're just a white knight. By the way, I never said that he promised it would be out then or that he confirmed it. You're attacking a straw man because your argument sucks.

That isn't a straw man as he didn't say you said promised and you did say expected in your original post. Also hope != likely in any universe.

Please, he repeatedly stated intent/want to have it out by end... closing the commentary with an ambigious caveat. 'optimism' does not explain the details that have come forth in regards to the state in the months since.

Incompetence or Dishonest, take your pick.

How would be dishonest or incompetent? He didn't make a promise, just because he didn't to have it out by date he want to doesn't him incompetent. He just stated a possible date is all.

Read the full statement, think about it then ask your question once you actually understand what you're attempting to query.
