Hopefully one of the mods will be posting a mini Q&A soon about this and other common questions.

can a dev let us know if this is going ahead?

thanks

I'm no dev but probably later today or tomorrow when the DLC is out/ after people buy it and then get disappointed

they should be trying to generate more sales by addressing community concerns IMHO.
no doubt people are going to buy but the more that do the better chance of it lasting more than 4 weeks.

They probably need to follow EAs instructions. Sadly I think that once the population drops below a certain point support in turned off and I don't think these devs we see here on gamesas have any power

We need one before tomorrow

if EA had any brains, they know the game sold less than expected, the DLC is overpriced for a small community make it cheaper to generate sales :/
