i. Next patch will only have server&client stability and issues fixing.
ii. Next BIG patch (or 1st expansion) will bring terraforming and P.O.S (and just that is fine)
iii. During December and January we'll see more advertising and, I do hope that we don't loose people in the beginning of the 2nd month.
iv. final, we need to have more rewards (of some kind) in the beta/gamma/delta... islands.
