Please tell us what is going on, I canceled my supporter as I felt we weren't being told what was going on and I wasn't paying for cosmetic leaks. More transparency so we know what is going on is needed for supporters.

End the Excommunications

Many people think that the game is dead or abandoned. All we have received addition-wise to quest or PC is Resurrection. Now, I don't believe this is the ONLY thing that Alta is working on behind the curtain, as there is not enough publicity to prove such. this is exactly my point.
altavr.io/values "community" is slipping from your grasp.
You need to communicate with the community more. Like, a LOT more. You barely gave us an inkling of a concept that Resurrection was even coming, so a lot of players died one day and there was a skull they had never even conceptualized in-front of them.
Let's take a look-see, then...
Last youtube post? A year ago.
Last news about content/merge updates on Discord? A year ago. (Although I don't check it often... something might have changed, but it should still be more broadband than just the discord.)
Last news post? A year ago.
Housing update news? TWO years ago.
Merge news? A year ago.
There have been similar occurrences of this "i have no mouth but I must gamedev" phenomena seen in another instance; bonelab. Bonelab is owned by SLZ, and once they had burnt a whole year of their 2-year contract on NOTHING but CODING and NO COMMUNICATION, the community got... well... pissed. Same thing here. Everyone thinks the game is dead/abandoned.
I don't know who your media team is or if Alta even has one, but frankly? They need to step it up! Big time! start a Vlog! Do a video! An update, an announcement, a post, something! Please! For your sake, and ours!
Your community can't tell if you're working hard or if you're lying!
The best way to get started is a simple vlog. A 5-25 minute video of a dev or anybody-literally anybody-walking around the studio with a camera. You don't even need to do any editing! I suggest you start doing Vlogs or any other posts at LEAST monthly, just to show that some keyboards are being pressed.
EDIT: NO I am NOT saying that the game is abandoned, I am saying that Alta ate glue or something and can't open their mouth to make even a singular measly post telling us what's happening.

I believe that as of may 2023 this may take a turn for the better... With the new closed beta play-test for the next major update, there may be a cascade effect in that devs may reveal more details about what they are working on... But this is only speculation ;)

From our perspective it give us the feeling that you only work on cosmetics. I know it is not true, and little things can take lots of work, but we need to know that.
May be it is not connected, but the fact the houses are not well done with big gaps in the walls make the feeling you do not work seriously
