Let me explain to you how these things work:



The conversion rate is probably some type of database lookup or variable entry that they can modify. They code it once and they are done. To adjust it, they just change a variable on the fly. They aren't still "working on it". There are probably 100 different things they are still working on regarding code/models/server tech but this isn't it.



They aren't telling you the conversion rate because:



1. They are really frakkin busy. This is a major release and they will have people working tons of overtime to get it done. They most likely already have the conversion system in and now they just have to drop in the variables. Let me put this lightly: THERE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO.



2. They are still working out what they think the "fair" rate is for each conversion. I am sure they have some ideas but they aren't going to tell you until they are 100% done with it. What a ridiculous comment. Game developers work around the clock during crunch time. Every development studio works hours upon hours to finish a major release on time. That is nothing new. The reason this isn't out yet is because they have the conversion system DONE but they don't have the ratios in yet.Let me explain to you how these things work:The conversion rate is probably some type of database lookup or variable entry that they can modify.
