But you still keep bringing up the missed dates. Anyhow, that date sounds more than reasonable to me. I'm personally thinking Q2-Q3 2026, but it is just my guess. Until we're closer, there's no way to have any idea. Once we see them finish with the 2.x stuff, then we can get a better idea of when 3.0 might come out. Right now, there just isn't any way to really have a decent guess since they are making a LOT of changes and additions and those can create all kinds of problems. It could turn out that all these changes and additions could turn out to be equivalent to a major version update and take a year to do. If that happens, then I'd be looking at around Q2-Q3 2027 for 3.0. But we'll have to see how things go. I doubt that would be how long it takes, but I also wouldn't really be too surprised either if the 2.x changes take a lot of work to complete.I have already said that I am giving them until Q4 2026 for bandits...what else do you want? Isn't THAT reasonable enough? You also want communication but you won't ask for it? why?
I said that I would like more communication. I didn't say I needed it. We aren't entitled to more communication. I've seen many cases where devs don't communicate at all beyond just release information. No details about what they are working on or the difficult things they've had to deal with with some specific feature or anything like what faatal often provides. No previews of what's to come like faatal and Laz Man sometimes provide. So I'm used to a lack of any significant communication from developers. It isn't just TFP. Obviously some do a lot better, and when that's the case, I appreciate it. But even those who do even worse don't bother me. I'll see it when I see it. If I have to wait until the release to know the details, then so be it.
Now, whether or not that's acceptable to people or if it would be good to have more communication, I still don't believe we are entitled to anything in regards to communication about what they are working on. What is nice and what is needed are two separate things. I'll accept any communication they want to provide, but I'm not going to be upset that they aren't giving me constant updates.
