Not a chance Kiss gets left out in the dust.

This EXACT same thing happened with Metallica.
People bitched, whined, and kinda rightfully so if they shelled out the cash to buy Metallica the way it was in it's early stages.
Premature re-sales, game bashing, everything!
Then ..code gets finished..final updates are excellent..game is now one of the more sought after Sterns.

Kiss will be really good when done.
It's plenty good now; you just have to really work the scoop to get to many of the extra features.
But I am disappointed too that we did not get the rumored update today. Hope soon-
