There hasn't been a "in a nutshell" post in a while, so I thought I'd do one, because I'm mad at A Wizard's Lizard for that stupid fire thing that killed me. (Or I guess killed me again?)

But anyway...
"Oh my goodness no updates in like 2 months it's abandoned!1!"
"No update in over a year!!"
*massive update comes out*
"Wow, this update is big and I can see why they took a year to make it!"
*4 weeks later*
"No updates!!!"
This is all the same person by the way.

In all seriousness though, a community would be happier with "daily" updates of one bug fix then new features every couple of weeks.

It's quite sad that people judge by the amount of updates, instead of the update/development speed. The types who complain about no updates in 3 months should not even buy into EA.

EA is like a stock, you invest into it, and a game may or may not come out of the cash you threw at it. Don't buy into EA unless you want to support the devs. EA is a gamble.

Thats why you don't do early access

Look at something like rimworld

Big update every 3 months or so and everybody is happy because they know what they bought into

if an EA game doesn't get updated in a year then it probably is dead

@Zangoose, Well, probably, but then you get things like Starbound which you can check the website for and see what the upcoming updates do.

Some people don't check those and see Steam being silent for a year, and then assume the worst.

While I don't agree that it's fair to not tell Steam people anything, it's not fair to assume the game is dead without checking the official websites/forums either.
