So, I check the inferno page and I still only see Escalation information. When are you going to start letting us know what you are putting into the Inferno expansion that hasn't already been put out in the last patch?

The lack of information looks suspiciously like there are issues at CCP and perhaps that the Inferno release is about to get delayed.

Or maybe they're crunching and trying to see just how many features they can lock in before they announce things.

Inferno will be the ultimate update making digital history heard round the world. No expansion, update, or patch ever reached the glorious heights that will be Inferno. It's got so many features it's futile to list them at all. Stay tuned for more.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

Totally. I know when I'm busy getting work done to meet a deadline, I spend my time telling customers what I'm planning on doing.

There are things that are not on sisi but will be inferno. These things are likely majorly ripe for speculators to make money off of. They will probably not announce these things until downtime on patch-day, to avoid a market crash.

That seems to be the template for some of the new designs. Others look like stuff they have shown on Jamyl.

Alot of it is on Test server.
Stealth Bombers, Missile Turets. CCP are doing you a favor if they kept some of it under the hood.

Bombers are already over 30 mill.

This, hopefully.

It sounds like they are adding almost zero real "content" to the game, but will have enough mechanics changes, fixes and additions to make our fuzzy little heads explode.

All in all I am quite excited to see what ends up in the patch. A little nervous about some of the proposed new modules, and the mere mention of a concord deathray at fanfest sent shudders of revulsion down my spine, but all in all I think CCP are back being awesome.

So you suck as a project manager then, so whats your point? If you are not in contact with your customers and not letting them know if the deadline is going to be made or not and that all the features of the project are going to be done then you are not a very good project manager.

The only problem being that this project is developer defined and driven, not defined or required by the customer by a certain date.

We are basically asking "Will you have everything you have planned ready for release on the set date?"

Without announcing the full "plan" the answer to this question can almost always be yes.

We are still paying customers which means this project in development should have had a feature list posted for the customers to review and notes on if each feature is going to be ready for the deadline that they set.

My Point is a good project manager reguardless of project or industry should always have good communication with the customers of said project.

On Topic - Inferno's feature list would be nice.

Inferno is right on track, no worries. The devs have been busy at work making sure you'll have fun shooting each other all summer.

There are dev blogs on the way. On topics like Factional Warfare (I'll be surprised if that's not the longest one), the new modules, the War Dec system, the Ally System, new character customization options and more.

We're also working on an In Development video.

We'll do our best to keep you guys up to date :)
