You would think with the lack of updates (in the form of news) from them that they were actually working on real top secret stuff from the pentagon... However if that were the case, the New York Times would have published all of the info by now.
Seriously the new planes/maps are the only thing that prevents this game from causing burnout en masse... Personally I nor my squad, nor some of our friendly squads could give 2 cents for the combat tour concept. The majority of us work 8-10 hours a day and dont have time to play the game according to the wishes of an AI mission planner, we play the game to shoot the breeze with squaddies, down a brew or 10, blow stuff up and kill people.
If we don't have some hint at what is going on with the game at least every month to 6 weeks, (not a daily bulletin... I am being realistic) then it is hard to stay excited about the future of the game.
PS: I know this is coming so I will go ahead and say it... We will get more stuff in "two weeks".
