Broken lands was promised in 2013, I think based on this not occurring there should be some kind of announcement regarding how far its been set back and or what complications have been encountered to push it back. Is it expected to be a few months a few years? I dont think Soon is a relevant answer based on previously being promised the update in 2013.

You can think what you like.
What makes you think this would be any different from Pathfinding, or water-craft?  Or how about any other promise left undelivered?

The Team won't give an update.  They barely respond to petitions.

What ever it is . If someone say's they going to do something and doesn't do it . With out an explanation why it's not done. The golden rule is fist time shame on you second time shame on me . There's is no third time let it go and move on. Don't even give them a 3 rd pitch to look at [3 strikes your out .] They had two swings and never swung they don't deserve a 3 rd look .

Does anyone think beating a dead horse like this does anyone any good?

A wise person once said "Play Illy as it is, not as you (wish) it would be."

There have been times this year when I've doubted that Illy as it is was worth playing.  I still am not sure.  Nevertheless, it is what we have, and the bitterness of our complaints will not speed the coding of any changes.

You forget yourself again Rill.  Many of us have been paying to speed the coding of the changes.

I never spoke as long as 2013 was still running, but now I have to let my voice speak. As non-paying player I probably don't have much reason to speak, but (and here is a big but) , in my understanding, if someone promises to do something, they should do whatever's in their possibility to do it, (but hey, I think people shouldn't divorce because they promised to stay together, so I'm not normal in this standards). If one is not able to keep certain promises they should talk to the one(s) they promised to and tell them why they can't keep their pomise.

This didn't happen. Devs promised us BL in 2013 and it didn't get there. They never apologized or told us why things got delayed. I hate to criticize the devs, but in this case they are completely on the wrong imo. They should have let people know they wouldn't make it in time to finish BL. Maybe there's been some message in GC, but I missed it, and I believe many others did as well. 

To summarize: I don't have a problem with BL not being releashed in time (the time devs told us it would take [somewhere 2013], I do have a problem with devs lying to us about the time BL will be released. Please be honest anout these things. If you won't be able to follow your own rules how could you be able to make sure others abide your?
