SWTOR Updates seem a little stale?

[Harlequin]

Ok, in case people have been thinking that SWTOR.com have been a bit mean with the updates the past few weeks, then you may be frustrated to know that this is going to continue for a couple more weeksto come. On the upside as quoted below this is because of some big updates coming that SWTIOR.com want to get right before the team release what they have to the community.  Below is what Sean Dahlberg of SWTOR.com had to say in the developers thread:

'While we have annouced our target launch window, we also realize there is a lot of information to release between now and then. We met with the development team soon after returning from the holiday break and discussed some of the information we want to release. In going over that, we decided to wait on a few things to ensure we are giving the community the most accurate information possible. We understand that pretty much everyone would love to have all the information about The Old Republic now but we wouldn't be serving the community properly if we told you all about a particular feature or mechanic only for it to be completely different than the way we explained it when The Old Republic releases.

We definitely have some new reveals and announcements coming up but I wanted to inform everyone that our next couple of updates won't be those. And while I'd like nothing better than to tell you what is on the horizon, I can't for the very same reason as I talked about above. We have a plan on what information we want to release and when we want to release it but we always make sure the rest of the team is confident with the information we are releasing before we put it out there.

We know that some of you come here weekly and some even daily no matter what information we release because you enjoy interacting with the community. But we also know that some come here for new information and we want to make sure you get that when it is made available. Here are our suggestions on making sure you know what's going on with The Old Republic if you don't wish to check the forums.

* Sign up for The Old Republic newsletter. Starting this month, we plan on sending them out at the end of each month highlighting any updates that have occurred. We will also send out "Community Alerts" for any major announcements that are released usually within a few hours of that announcement being made.
   
 * Follow us on some of the more popular social networks where we bring that information to you. We have pages on Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and YouTube.
   
* Get our updates in your RSS Reader. We have RSS Feeds for our News Section, Media Section, and our HoloNet updates.

Like I said, we understand that some may be upset with this news and we definitely encourage getting feedback from the community, to include constructive criticism. We just ask that you read over your posts before hitting "submit" to ensure they are not violating any of the rules and guidelines of this community.

We appreciate your patience and understanding.'

Honestly I don't see why people complain, I mean the game is over a year away so what do they expect?

If BioWare want to keep a steady interest in the game the best approach (which is what they do) is to release the more "major" updates every month or so, those that get picked up by all game sites and thus inevitably will lead curios people over to the official sw:tor page.

And they are probably saving the real chunky bits for events like comicon and E3 (things like races, instances etc)

You can't expect them to release all the news at once, there trying to keep us interested and it's definatly working for me.
