OF v2 is barely 4 months old and it's being upgraded.
Why are you pissed? OF v2 hasn't been out long enough for you to even be eligible to request a refund. I'm upgrading it because enough of my CUSTOMERS asked me to, and because there's enough advancement in the tech to do so. And as RTB points out, V2 is a great program, and well worth the price.
I was going to build something completely different, but I was asked by enough customers to build this instead, and they asked me to do so with the understanding that the only free upgrades would be to those who purchased v2 within 30 days of the release of v3.
This build is being done, OF v3 or whatever else it might have been, to allow me to release at least one thing this month that will bring in fresh income. UMS v2 is taking too long, and otherwise there would be nothing at all. The whole point would be negated if I gave free upgrades!
So why are you pissed again?
Disgruntled would be the more appropriate word.
I agree the customers asked you to do it and that it isn't eligible for a refund.
So if it hasn't been given at least 8 months for it's effectiveness to be ascertained...why are Catman and others asking for it to be upgraded already? With newer tech available (fortunately a regular occurrence) is the plan (if you're willing to divulge) to put all the bells and whistles into perfecting OF before replicating into other programs?
I fully understand the need for cashflow though by regularly updating OF you are feeding into peoples FOMO as they will naturally want the latest tech. This will mean they will own multiple copies of the same program with incremental improvements..great for IML but the customer is out of pocket 3 times for a slightly better product (I'm more interested in the results than the claim that this new version is 10 times better than the last but in actuality isn't. I'm not criticising, just highlighting that sometimes it's better to temper expectations). Consequently, no one will want to buy new subs as the possibility of a new version in a short while may be available.
As progress is a continuing journey...you will never be finished. My assumption of you is that you will always want to improve on things to better yourself and your products. Thus, improving other programs (in my opinion) would have been the better choice as it would have allowed for better test results across a variety of subs.
This is all a moot point as I won't be purchasing OF v3. But it is food for thought regarding future purchases (specifically UMS v2). Rather than jumping on the initial offering, it may be more prudent to wait a few months (though this can be a spiralling situation if regular updates are implemented at full cost).
