Original Post — Direct link

Currently a struggle many clans have is regulating activity because for casual players donations isn't a consistent reason to kick people. Some people miss a week or two for life and that's okay! But we want to remove those who have stopped playing. The addition of a "last played" counter will help regulate activity in the clans. I have confirmation from support that they like the idea and we need this to become popularized here to get it implemented! So either upvote or upload the idea yourself! I don't care but this addition would solve a huge problem for mine and many other clans so please help out!

Is there a specific reason none of the Devs ever want to share any dates when it's coming down to ETA for Updates?

Not getting an ETA at all is more annoying than the case an announced update would get delayed

from all my years experience as a community manager i can safely say that in the vast majority of cases it is the complete opposite.

giving a date and then not delivering on that date is 10000x worse than not giving a date. setting a date builds up expectations, hype, and then lets people down and breaks trust when you don't hit that date.

when i'm 100% confident we can hit a date, i will provide it. but in game dev nothing is ever 100%. we've done it before with the clan wars update - it was all ready to go and then we find a critical bug and have to push it back a day. a day is generally fine and people will be let down but understanding, but what if we announce that we are launching in a week and then it takes 3 weeks?

i'd rather just wait and give a good experience to everyone involved.

And what about the TV Royale? I do agree with this response, but I'm just curious since the TV Royale is already finished (or at least should be according to the info)

tv royale isn't already finished. we have filmed it, yes, but we are now recording new gameplay & re-recording slightly out of date gameplay and locking the edit. then we localise into something like 20 languages? which takes a while, as it is a long video (we've gone for a different format this time).

but even if it was finished we wouldn't release it until a day or two before the update anyway!
