    I thought they needed all of that funding to develop their next-gen engine? Don’t tell me they’ve been spending it on hookers and blow?

      It’s the servers mainly. They’re still implementing some core tech so I guess they don’t find it worth spending so much time getting the servers running perfectly when the next major change just ruins everything again. They’re going to be completely changing planet and POI generation soon so that’s probably going to mess a lot of things up.
