Yes, thank you. That is why I wrote:

No pressure then Luthier.

Psychologically the only reason for people's disappointment (and whining) is a gap between too high expectations and reality. I would not expect that much from the upcoming patch till I witness a beta.
I do not remember Luthier saying or promising the above. I think he said they hope or trying to get these results or working on these features. This is very different from saying we will get something or promising something especially in Russia. |
These statements have absolutely different meaning. Luthier talks about "testing" which means that the engine does not work yet and it is not clear if it would, otherwise testing would not be needed already. Then he talks about "final version" which is different from the "next official version". And "it shouldn’t be less than 50%" does not mean "it will be not less than 50%" but means that doubts still exist and no one knows for sure.
There are always 2 sides in communication process and receiving side is also responsible for correct interpretation of communication. People usually tend to see only what they want to see.
Same was with Oleg's updates. He described features that they worked on, planned (and eagerly wanted) to include in the release version. Because we did not have a demo or videos 6 months prior to release, it was an easy logical conclusion that various features that work separately may not fit together when assembled into one piece in a hurry. This happens
every time. All people want to do their best but real life circumstances change their plans.
Thus, it is not reasonable to have high (or low) expectations before actually experiencing anything. This eliminates the only reason for frustration (and whining) - a gap between expectations and reality. Only my own opinion of cause.
