So the patch 1.1 and patch 1.2 aren't considered big updates to you? I consider patches like 1.1 and 1.2 to be big patches and they are coming out like weekly. With that said we aren't really that far behind in knowing what they are working on if we consider patches like 1.1/1.2 to be big patches.
Yes, they addressed that they will be focused on fixing bugs/stability then be addressing the other stuff. Obviously they aren't strictly following this as they have been balancing eco and stuff. The workshop massive income at launch was a bug, but the nerf to the caravan was obviously a balance choice. Again they need to be more clear, but it is not a super big deal for me, just pointing out they don't have the best communication.
