The most most impressive thing about this update

[boomervoncannon 1,541]

...is that it was only a single day late from its announced release window of May.  As someone who has criticized Grapecard repeatedly in the past for their failure to release almost anything on time, this is a pleasant surprise. Hopefully it is a sign they are becoming better organized and more effective in their work. If so it could signal that a corner has been turned and real improvement of the development process is underway. Nothing is guaranteed of course, but this is a welcome positive sign.

@Jatheish et al, thanks for beating expectations.

The bar has been raised this time instead of lowered.

No pressure.

Although anyone playing in Hawaii got the update in May.

The pressure is on now. With being only one day later the bar has been set to begin on time. I think they are afraid of hitting that bar though. If they do that it will he expected every time and the new bar will be releasing an update early.

Yeah almost didn’t write it to be honest

but yeah it is good to see they are making moves in the right direction.

i am hearing that the fishing net, ice box, and tames are not really looking good right now. Even some complaints about the cargo box and other nerfs.

i like things being on time but not at the cost of efficiency.

Ehhhh, in an EA product I am more okay with putting stuff out there initially and then tweaking it based on playtesting, like the whole icebox thing.

Don’t get me wrong I am fine with that too, but if it done that way I get more strict with tardiness however..

It’s like I am cool with both and they can choose either way they want to go but which ever way they choose, I expect that choice to happen
