Ok, DaPest and ADragonWithin, let us talk about your choice of analogies, the "mechanic" one is incorrect, now see it wouldn't work as a mechanic because the car works fine, now let us change that mechanic to a company that is making your body kit and turbo, you expected it to happen by a certain date, even paid for it (the price of your car ((original game)) has nothing to do with the cost) the company calls you on a date that they said they would have a sample ready and says "hey look we have had something come up we will get back to you on this" you can ask them for more details but does it matter? What can you do anyway? So let's work with the other example, recalls are a legal thing, they have to tell you why, it is not about trust, it is about not getting their ass sued till the only thing on that is left of their company is their name in legal journals. Now let us take the rampant stupidity of the " areas are built" the areas are placeholders, basically something to work with, a lot of games have them if you bother to look. Don't go asking for information you wouldn't understand, even if you were a comp sci doctorate or whatever, because there is nothing you can do. Hey do you remember when Google accidentally blocked the net because they used "/" instead of an url. It is so easy to break something or not catch a major problem in development until release, that is why there is no such thing as a hard release. I understand you probably want know if HoW is still coming out on time, well if they were concerned about that they would have said.
