though this is steam only and doesnt count Playstation players still neat to see steady players some take a break for a month or two and you see that aswell

Nothing to add really to this conversation. It’s the good old thing we have here on the forum every now and so often. Like many said already, the game is still in transition mode. After a team needs to be build and they most likely still need to get even familiar with all game mechanics, codes etc. That will take still 1-2 years until we see new things coming. Many people go on a break because they want new stuff. It’s not that many people being disappointed about the communication. What do they want to tell us repeatedly? That they do ant steps? That unmotivates probably more than the silence about their transfer progress.
We are lucky, that we got them more active again. Does it feel like it? Probably not for everyone. But I know that before monumental took over some people waited long for assistance.
Though, their hands are tied still to do the full work.
The issue is again the transition isn’t yet completed, so if players for example from Playstation experience problems, it can be that they need to wait it out until Playstation datas got also transferred.
If the game is running smooth for you and you enjoy yourself, then just play. If you dont enjoy yourself or the issues in game you experience unmotivate you to play, then take a break. Better times are coming. Sometimes there’s no more than waiting things out and staying positive.

this is the same thing a lot of us have been asking but some players in the community keep trying to shut it down telling us to wait longer like we have not been waiting for a long time already for anything
Just waiting for the wipe. Sure it’ll be soon don’t worry.

Well what are the options? Play the game and wait or take a break/quit. If someone has other suggestions, let me know. In the end, complaining and writing them isn’t making things faster.

I ve been quiet all the time but there are some things i want to say now…
I dont understand why the transition takes so long …
I know from someone who is more than 20 years in game industry that it normaly not takes as long as it does in this case.
Normal Case 3-6 Month.
Is it perhaps that WS got all the Money till Shop moved to Monumental and that it was the payments to them ???
Why Don t you hire people early to start Brainstorming which way to Go and what to Work on Updates and timelines etc.???
Hirering will take time too and no jobs on homepage written for Boundless or even that Game is mentioned …
This costs Money sure but If you want to earn money with this game you have to Invest …
Important always is communication , even you can t fix as example the lags during the hunts then make an announcement sry we ren t able at the moment. Then people know about it.
Doesen t matter what you re doing small monthly updates telling people what happend or happens is a small thing for you you can do but a big thing for the playership instead of saying nothing .
This is a kind of marketing to your existing playership…
People want to have new stuff and me too nearly playing 5 years this Game now with 9300 hours of Game time …
The Community is awesome and i think thats the only reason why i am still there … But i Don t know how long because i think you re not telling us the truth …
My opinion is that the said 1 year after transition to start development is that you want to earn money from sovs and fuels to Invest this Money then for the development.
If this would be my Game i would try to get First done some fixes and try to add a small part of the existing add on 249 from Testserver or If that would be a Problem than add some …Blocks so people have more or new stuff to build and thats not much to programm …and the people will be satisfied for a while and you can work on further bigger updates.
After 3 years without no Updates many people get bored.
And waiting another 1,5 to 2 years thats normaly the death…
Every game gets and needs regular updates 1 Minimum a year , when its a MMO or it will die…
There are some games which seem to be very intresting in the coming Future in this Genre and If you Don t get busy with Boundless you ll lose the players and your Money…
I wanted make new sov but i won t for the moment and will let expire the Planet i have , will only renew my gleam club because of all the beacons i have on several other player planets for the hunts.
Its because i won t put more money into a Game i Don t know the way even i Love it.
Nobody waits years without anything new…
I am a Person which is very diplomatic and Don t likes negativ speaking but i think its time to let this Out once for me and Look into reality whats going on with this Game at the moment.
You can hate me for my thoughts and opinions i won t be angry to you .
Not to misunderstand i Love this Game, but If you Don t care your Love it will vanish …

Because I’m curious, this is the sort of thing I was interested to know, and I really appreciated the explanation you (and others) gave in the last thread on this subject - I have often wondered just how many moving parts go into making a game like this.
For all we know it’s a lot of permissions kind of things. I can imagine that shifting Playstation content could be a huge problem. In history, Sony gave a lot of games already barricades that seemed not developed enough to be brought out etc. I can’t remember which games at the moment but I remember having that conversation with my brother back then. So maybe Sony is hindering them as well in some ways. Like mentioned above, as long as the Playstation stuff isn’t transfered, there’s also nothing they can do about lags or glitches that people experienced now over the weeks.

hard to explain few things, english is not my native language and even best translators cant translate directly what i want to say
bet most of you know the process of making/developing a game? programing, coding, assembling, testing, bug fixing etc?
imagine you made a game youre not longer interesting in developing, you sold them to other, you gave him all your sources but
he have to learn from beginning how you coded it, be familiar with all templates, learn how to animate single new added item
and dont forget - you had world generator, it still working as it was intended but you need to learn how it was made if they want to add new elements?
they have to learn how to expand actual boundlessverse to add new tier of planets?
game developing is 1 thing but
rights and trademarks are different things, transferring rights, trademarks demand a very detailed agreement/contract, they taking rights to every template, every single code line, every item model and animation, bet every single grass seed demand own contract line
now all the platforms game was released on - all they demand own transfers/agreement/contract between WS - Monumental - steam/sony etc
copyright transfer are the most complicated hard to finish agreements/contracts
and most important - PUBLISHER
it wasnt easy i think, they had to prove to SE that they would be able to actively develop game further to remain under their wings, if SE are sure the game still got a future they will be publishing it under their name to lure more players:
look, SE gave it its mark, it should be worth a try
anyone can add something to it?
@Tiggs
really sorry for ping, but
please, any comment? do it looks like? it really be nice to see Monumental post from time to time with actual transition phase?
i really love this game, i want to see it blooming and shining :D, i want to see expanded universe, with higher tier planets, perma T7-T12
we need to awaken titans in their cores to help them start oort stones growing under surfaces of all boundlessverse planets, all perma, sovs and exo 
I don’t need to tell you anything you should read what others are saying we are voicing our opinions there is no need to explain our self’s to anyone we are un happy with the state of the game and we have a right to speak up about it, others should respect that and not try to over shadow the things we say with go play other games or just wait those are not the only opinions this is a product we are all invested in not just the select few who back the game from the start there are so many players who pay 100’s-10000s of dollars for planets and gleam club every month for long time us talking about what is going on is the information the devs need to understand where the game stands with ALL players not just the few who speak on forums all the time there is more players than that so we will continue to voice our opinions on the state of the game just like every one else speaks up about things in game.

I just don’t think it’s a great thing, considering how few people are actually playing right now, to tell other people, “Well if you don’t like it, buzz off and go somewhere else.” instead of listening to their concerns. Like. . . we need all the players we can get, so shouldn’t we be supportive and helpful instead?

And those of us who get tired of this incessant whining will continue to tell you to be patient or go play something else until such time as the game is in active development. Complaining about it isn’t going to make it go faster. 
Edit: Thanks to the people who flagged this post. Seems my point was made.

Noone said that giving your voice about the game is a bad thing, ofcourse it’s a good thing! And I love reading everyone his or her opinion and feelings about the game. But the same question over and over is also not needed. I have asked @tiggs to make an official sticky on the forums about the rough time it takes before anything is going to be done. This way we could point out the thread without people stepping on eachothers toes. And @glr not direct towards you but gleamclub and sovereign are not a must and is a choice and cannot be hold responsible for any type of information where the game stands.

investment is there responsibility its there job to ether tell us the game is going to die or show us things that will keep us paying for things its in there best interest that we give them money for a services witch this is since there is paid options logical business
All the other games I pay monthly give updates periodically not always things we like but there updates witch shows there is thing’s happening.
IT is looking like there is nothing happening only logo change overs and shop change overs .
This is all feed back we are giving there is no we hate the game or you have to do this now because we want new game we are worried that the game will die because not all players will continue to pay for things with no updates that means less money being invested into game by players witch means harder to do things and pay for devs for them.
