We know why it takes 6 months to get a patch now*
We know there is only one new faction coming, which means people can STFU about Italy, Dak and Japan
We know what they are working on
Except we only know because we found out through game file digging and leaks, not an actual statement from Relic. This would be mostly fine if today say they came out and announced some specifics, except they didn't.
The player driven content thing also makes me very very suspicious, because the last thing we need is Relic deciding that the players can take over developing the game for them.
