Whats Bungies definition of "soon" or "short term future" ?

let's start by listing some announcements by the dates they were made: 25 SEP 2014: " Thorn and Bad Juju have disappointed many of us who have gone through the great effort to obtain them because, despite looking and sounding amazing, they feel underpowered. We're here to offer some advice: don't shard those guns. Their time will come." - Dev Notes - Exotic Weapon changes first hinted at OVER 2 MONTHS ago 17 OCT 2014: Vex Mythoclast PVE buff - "Timeline for these changes: They’ll be going in soon. " - Weekly Update - That was 1.5Months ago ( 24 OCT 2014 : New'n'Improved Iron Banner announced - We got that after 4 weeks wich is probably OK ) 28 OCT 2014: "Future enhancements being worked on include Exotic Weapon tuning, new features for voice communication between matchmade teammates, and the ability to hold more Bounties in your pocket at any time." - while we've seen some of those in effect the Exotic Weapon Tuning (listed first here) is announced and then forgotten once more... - 1 Month Ago 31 OCT 2014: "We promised to make all of your Exotics worth the price of ownership, and you should expect to hear more about how they’ll continue to be prized possessions in the short term future. Stay tuned!" - Weekly Update - 4 Weeks ago with no new details since then 8 NOV 2014: Loads of Updates announced - in Spoiler for saving Space [spoiler]Here are some things we’ve mentioned: Channels for talking to matchmade teammates, if you so wish Exotic weapons that are stronger and more interesting to upgrade New gear to let you slip into something a little more Legendary That which waits in The Dark Below Here are some things we’ve kept secret, until now: New shaders for your gear Ways to preview items before you spend your Glimmer Greater chances of “showers” in public spaces Adjustments to some arenas that needed better traffic flow New economies to equip you with upgrade materials Fixes, patches, and other invisible technical evolutions Some other tricks up our sleeve Maybe even a more generous Cryptarch (he’ll still be sort of a bastard)[/spoiler] We actually got to see some of those pretty fast!! (still waiting on everything that would have any importanceto me personally though ) Anything promised after that is actually stillclose enough to be called soon, so I will not list it here now. I seem to remember deej throwing around the word "soon" in the comments as well though.. I FULLY expect the Exotic weapon Update to drop next week, as it was practically announced to do, but this is not only about that any longer, it's about the way Bungie, Deej, or whoever is in charge announces stuff. If nothing is to change for UP TO MORE THAN 2 MONTHS later then announce nothing at all... reminds me of Tantalos always keeping what we want in plain sight but not being able to reach it... even though I know that is exaggareting it... Right now I fear that with the Exo-Update coming so close before the Dark Below that any changes made (especially with the Mythoclast) will be for naught as we'll be getting just as strong and stronger Weapons from the DLC anyways, which would mean they pushed the Update back so far that it got useless for the players that play Destiny the most and support it even with their DLC... Opinions on this and/or other examples of Bungie/Deej using the word "soon" are welcome :P
