I'm sure that Urk being a writer now, making DeeJ the only full time community manager, has some impact on how they communicate with us. I'm not blaming DeeJ however, he said himself that he wishes he could tell us everything that they were planning. My guess is, they are afraid of letting us down again. They told us so much that was in concept during pre-alpha stage, much of which didn't make it in the game, but we didn't know that part.
