chadz, i'm glad you're working on it. I wonder what "soon" means in chadz' world. We know what it means for the likes of Valve or Blizzard, and i hope we're not anywhere near those timeframes.
If by taking time equals quality, as is presented by the two companies mentioned, I think we'd like the cRPG team to take some time to ensure a good quality patch. And they certainly have taken their time. Sure, they could heave released a quick balance patch a while ago just changing some weapon stats around, but they are doing more to ensure that nobody is royally screwed over.
Off topic: I want Diablo 3 to take 2 more years for example, to make sure that it is
almost as good as Diablo 2 was. Similar thing for valve and the next half life, I want quality not a rushed piece of shit.
Example of rushed piece of shit: Command & Conquer 3 and past from EA, Every CoD game that could be hundreds of time better if they weren't forced into stupid deadlines, And every bad rushed game which becomes increasingly often today.
Note: taking your time does not mean Duke Nukem: Forever.
