To my knowing they hired a couple of people at least. It just takes time training them. We dunno what kind of people they hired tho. It doesnt really matter much. Fact is.. yes updates take a while. They don't want to rush things and make it good with as less bugs as possible and for an EA game this one really has just a few minor bugs at least for me.

The next update is rumored to arrive in the next couple of weeks. And when people complain about "to less" things.. it's mostly because they enjoyed the game so much that they want more. Thats not a bad thing just mostly projected as bad. I agree that every biome needs a lil bit... more of everything tho. But it's not as bad that I would give a negative review.

I mean depending on the kind of player you are you can even at this state.. put in 100-1000+ hours and still have fun. Even me as a dude that quickly loses interest in games when I'm done with the progression systems. I still enjoy playing this to build.. sail.. relax.. farming stuff and preparing for updates.

Edit: And mods.. damn.. mods can make things when stuff gets boring interesting again. For example all the graphic enhancements you can throw in.. so nice. I often just go into one of my favourite biomes and just woah me through it.
