Add to that ideas you get along the way and your team, over coffee, saying things like "what if..." and that 3 month project suddenly turns into 6 months.
To the Dev team, I'll say "most" of us are appreciative of your effort. Even when I disagree with design, I understand that "I'm" not the one showing up every morning living with all the frustrations. Good Luck.

Also, when Missions were added to the game it seems things went well and in fact I'm not aware of any real bug regarding the missions. If it takes longer to get the Tournament mode but we hit the same quality marks as we're used to, then really it was okay to wait.

agreed on both.... I just look at the delay of tourneys as an opportunity to train up more players for a more flexible squad.... and while I would have liked to have seen the mobile app ready and released by now, as I'll be travelling the next 2 weeks and would have liked the option to pop in and check on things; I'd still rather they get things right before it's pushed out... so if it means waiting longer than anticipated, so be it...
there's a reason some of us long-timers here have been around since version 1 or 2
