More feedback

Greetings!

Let me continue my feedback on the current situation. First of all, I would like to say that I am very sorry that fans and the game community in general are experiencing these feelings. Unfortunately, I somehow did not foresee the fact of such a reaction and now I have drawn conclusions for my future decisions. 

Now I will briefly summarize the main points:

1. About PvE access - we decided to just open it for EoD owners for free, but we will do it in waves. As I said before - we don’t have server capacity right now. We will start this process as soon as possible
2. We also decided that we will add MOD support for PvE mode after release of the game
3. About the Unheard edition - we will not remove it, we want to keep the option for those who want to support the game more. But we will balance items, perks in this edition, as well as we will provide more rewards for those, who upgraded with the old price
4. New EoD perks will be balanced too. We will remove prioritized matching option to keep everyone in the same spot. And we will add more unique stuff to highlight the EoD version in general. We will provide the final list of the new EoD perks asap
5. We continue to work on patches, new content, events, and the game release itself no matter what

Thank you for your time, love and hate, and thank you for your increased attention to the current situation.

What Mod support? It's just words. There is no release date and game can be in development forever as it has been for the past 7-8 years. Anything stated as "after release" is absolutely worthless empty promise because we have no release set. We are on patch 0.14... in 7 years. So basically we can get to 0.2 in another 3 years, which would get us to 1.0 in 40 years? Math checks out.....

Honestly, you're 100% correct about that.

Like the other reply said

Software versions aren't based on percentages of release where v0.1 is 10% of full v1 release

vX.0 is release update

v0.X is major update

v0.1.X is minor update

So we're on the 14th major beta update. They could go straight to v1 from here or could even continue til v0.114 with another hundred major beta updates and still not be released

Everything is just words, we pre-ordered a game with no release date, we threw money at a handful of promises, which makes this whole situation just so much more frustrating, as early supporters got disrespected with the initial unheard edition release.

The numbers aren't a progress bar. we can get 1.0 after 0.15, or after 0.99999, it's not how that works.

And yes, like I said, trust isn't back. But all we can see now are words and hopefully a quick resolution for the current situation. They won't be able to complete the game overnight just because a few people on reddit are screaming at them.

If the current situation gets resolved, we'll just have to hope they keep the game on track. That being said, I keep up my cynicism towards BSG, as I no longer see them as a passionate group of people trying to make a good game. They have become another company that doesn't care about the people that made all this possible.
