Hi Shannon,
Is it impossible to reverse that and do V3.3 BEFORE these focus fires, whatever they are? I'm concerned with what happened last time in this situation, they won't be "2-3 days per", and will take awhile. I don't begrudge you making them to make money at some point, even though we've also paid for this program. Most of us long ago now, and it's still obviously not there yet, of course. And also that, I mean, we've had one release for this program in well over a year.
After that, you have a few months to delve into B17, focus fires, whatever. As we'll need to have time to give feedback on V3.3 anyway.
V3.3 is going to take AT LEAST a month, possibly two. Focusfires take 2-3 days. I can't afford not to build the focusfires before 3.3, since I'm not making new stuff for the store as a result of the custom, and most of you aren't paying for DMSI, since it's an upgrade for you. So I need to make these to release something new to make more money for the business while I work on 3.3.
I hate to repost this, but I did say this would happen, just like before.
Now, a month has gone by, no "2-3 day focus fire", no V3.3. Nothing. I'm not sure there was a lot of interest for that particular program, also. I don't recall a lot of people waiting with bated breath for it to buy it asap compared to the interest DMSI gets. So I wasn't sure how many sales it would have generated, comparatively. Just being honest.
I mean, if you did V3.3 FIRST like I suggested (seeing as we've had one update in an entire year+)...it'd possibly be done by now as you said it'd be at least a month. Even if not, you still would be further along as you'd be working on a consistent tangible goal with a clear result. Instead of wherever things are right now. And after it came out, you'd have months to dabble in whatever while we went off to provide data from the real world on it. Same exact thing I posted in previous post. I feel an entire month has been wasted. Seeing as it's summer time and prime time to meet new people on DMSI, this is a real shame as I posted about before.
Like I said before, I get your theory of making "focusfires to make money", (despite us already paying long long long ago for a program that has yet to work and the constant lingering feeling this program is always being back-burnered...mind you). The problem is, this "2-3 days" thing is obviously a complete dream in reality. It's just frustrating watching the same thing happen over and over, and even pointing it out way in advance isn't enough to stop it.
I truly hope V3.3 is made before any other new random diversions. The summer will be gone by the time it comes out which is very disappointing...another summer gone for me with no progression with "attraction subs", but better than nothing by end of August. Building the new whatevers on V3.3's platform would ensure a much better chance of them actually working too. Something I can say OP 4G suffered from, K-Train mentioned that too, it needs to be buffed up a lot.
Anyway, I hope all is well. I will for sure post about the V3.2 experience so far, when we are told to wrap it up and stop listening. Hopefully, it can aid development.
