Obviously, you're not getting the marketing significance (or the development significance). By avoiding making too early statements about the game, they are allowing themselves to not be beholden to excess fan hype that can negatively affect the development cycle as a whole. And that's very important; it allows them to line all their developmental ducks in a row and make decisions that are for the long-term benefit of the game. Also by not announcing way too early and by holding their cards close to their chest, they are creating a sea of heated anticipation and frustrated desire. As evidenced by your very own post and the post of everyone who posts once a week or so desperately asking for definitive info.

And when they finally flip that switch on, when they finally release a targeted wave of information, even those who claimed to be disgusted with their marketing tactics will become so enthralled with euphoria and even more anticipation/desire (this time, with substantive guarantees), that sales will surge.

also creating anger that make people wait sum1 said to once if game makers got in [censored] cause thay were late or lead people on thay would be like every other company out der, il tell u if the metrolink said it ends at 8 oclock n ends at 1 am il be peaed lol but gaming companies get away wit it n how much time thay need thave bought out 3 games nearlly since oblivion n a book

I think we can let this poor thread rest in peace.
