Unfortunately the animosity has gone both ways, between the developer and community in the past few years. The biggest problem is some in the community not understanding the difference between what the developer is trying to achieve and a promise in past updates. Now the developers have to be very careful on how they word every statement, but that doesn't work either, when they state there is no promise with this particular features, its ALWAYS thrown back in their face as a PROMISE later.
A week goes by very slowly for the community, but its a nanosecond for the developer. A bi-weekly update might work, but I just as soon they wait until they had something worth reporting.
Hopefully in the next year the game engine will be optimized and it will be more just a matter of adding content, rather than a Keystone Cop's fire drill.
