patience, some games dont have updates for 3-6 months, and your wanting more already lol...***. Btw end of month or begginning of next month I was told of new islands update by a wittle birdy who whispered in ma ear

We'll do a blog early next week about the new patch, just still waiting for stuff to boil down regarding what will get in and what won't make it yet.

Early next week ended yesterday (is you ask me), so where is the blog update?

PS: No, patience is not one of my strengths

For today?

That's exactly what I saw and to be honest, I do not expect the patch to reach the server within this week...

They know us too well. The day after the the blog talking about the patch comes out, we are going to ask for a "What's Next" blog. Ok, so maybe it will be the same day

You know, what I would rather see them do for the Island release is make it an "Event". Have it all ready to go first, then start a publicity campaign 'New Islands releasing on X/X' come see!

I mentioned it before too, but having each Island open on a different day, with non-respawning NPC's, generous drops, and some bounties would make it a 1 time event to draw players in.

I'd ask what people are planning to do with the new Islands, but it would be rather silly for Corps to broadcast those intentions

For me, there are a couple of ideas;

Depending on how the beta Islands settle out, I could hang up my solo hat and join some new beta corp/alliance to help tame those new wilds!

Or, settle into a new remote alpha outpost.

Player contracts for transporting materials around would be great here, since I suspect there will be a lot of moving around, if for nothing more than a change of scenery, a lithus could be busy for days I know I have 1000's of U of materials, I can only imagine the scale of moving a large corp!!! So exciting

Depends for me as well. I am also a solo-player at the moment. I might join a corporation with access to beta or i might, just like you end up on a new remote outpost. Not sure which island yet though.

This would prove supernatural evil forces are active in our universe. 

I'm all for the DEVs taking their time and doing thing properly. We don't need the patch removing vital OS files just cause they rushed to pacify a few impatients. Taking time to do things right the first time means less work fixing it in the future which hopefully means more time to work on additional content.

I'm all for blogs though, explaining what is being done/planned, maybe putting some details into why things are done or not done may help some understand that something that seems simple to them to change is alot more complicated when it comes to programming and implementation.
