We been promised over and over again the headstart ^^. First was two weeks then it was two weeks again now it was supposed to be week... 3 times promise broke so xsyon whats happening? The third stage should have started yesterday but all we still can do is forage run fish or jump even packman is more entertaining at this stage lol...
This feels too much like beta and by amount of rage on forums it seems xsyon is crumbling ^^...

Looks like the ship is sinking. You had better gather all your rats and escape while you can.

If you want to see a sinking ship, or one that already is at the bottom of the ocean - try Earthrise!

Personally I pre-ordered for the two months free play after we go live. The pre-release play time was just nice to get an idea about the game. I mean, we have been playing free for near a month. I would gladly give up any headstart so they can get as many bugs as possible ironed out. The thing people need to remember is we only bought the game...they don't even have to allow access to the server until they charge our credit card the monthly fee.

I know there are lots of people that feel like they got screwed with the decrease in the amount of head start we are getting or lack of.
Regardless of those that don't want to give the devs any slack, jordi works 18-20 hour days to keep you guys happy and he's already stated that he has having health issues for putting so many waking hours into this game and needs to launch not only for his health but for financial reasons as well.
When he set the new launch date the community begged him to set it back and he made announcement that he would do just that but he couldn't drag it out much longer due to what i just said abou this health and financial reasons.
We're not going to see more programmers join this team until the game launches and that's what this team really needs.
I know we can counter argue that people won't stick around if the game is unplayable, however I'm here and if you are reading this then you are too.
They have my support 100% and if they need to shorten our early release time I'm fine with it!

I remember once we were late on designing a chip, 9 months late! We got in trouble! I asked if we got in more trouble because we were late, or because we didn't alert senior management that we were 9 months late until the day we were due. Well, it was the latter. We would have been better off just saying up front that we're not gonna make it, and need more time, a LOT more time. Instead, we kept it a secret until the actual delivery day, and THEN we said oops, we're gonna be 9 months late.
I have a bad feeling that this is happening here too. The delivery day has come and gone, twice. The game is still not playable, and the final due date is less than 48 hours away. I think we'd be better off if Jordi just came out and said this is how it is, instead of saying nothing.
Notorius has had my money for a month now, and I still don't have a playable game. I still want to play, and don't believe in refunds if you don't like the game. But the lack of communication is beginning to wear. I just wish he would pick one of the answers below:
1) the game is ready, and I'm turning on the features today or tomorrow, launch as planned on the 15th
2) the game is not ready, and realistically, it will take several more months to get there
3) I don't know whether the game will work or not, we are just winging it.

Let it go. This ship has sailed; this horse is dead, I'm sure there are more. This has been debated, complained about, defended, analyzed, and otherwise discussed. They already explained that there would be little to no headstart depending on the situation. If u bought the game for the headstart, then u are rather silly to begin with. BTW, this does suck. But to tell u the hold this bloody game has on me, I have rift, and I still log into this forum and this game without gathering, building, etc.
