“Originally I was thinking it would be okay and we could put all of the extra updates into a day-one patch,” Tabata continued: “But at that point I learned there are maybe a lot of people out there who play in an offline environment and don’t have internet. When I found that out, thinking about it again, I’m glad I didn’t make that decision.”

Looking out for everyone online and off.  It was confirmed that this break will be used to make more of a complete title.  The developers want to bring you a maxed-out effort, something that won’t rely on a massive Day One patch.  In an industry where it seems unpolished/unfinished games are deemed acceptable, this announcement was refreshing.
