3 days passed since Erepublik V1 became public. My conclusions:

1. Short term it was a very bad decision, because:
- still there are bugs to be resolved;
- still we have to work more on scalability;
- the citizens were not yet prepared for all the huge changes we have done in the game mechanics;
- a complete change in the design hard to be digested in a short period.

2. Long term it was a very good decision, because:
- there were much problems in Beta that in long term would not allow the project to develop, as later as we’ve made the change, as harder the change would have been;
- instead of having 2 projects to work on (beta and V1 development) we now have one version where is much easier to fix problems and add new features on it.
- we had 35.000 people putting pressure on us to launch “NOW”;
- we now have 35.000 people putting pressure on us to improve the project “NOW”;

I address a big THANK YOU to all the citizens that trust in our power to resolve those problems and to improve the project furthermore. I also address a big THANK YOU to all the citizens that are telling us what they don’t like in V1. I know that they tell us because they care about Erepublik.

At least for me 3 days of V1 were like 3 months of Beta.
