I personally hope A7 is a long way off, I don't want to have to shell out $500 to upgrade from A6 pro.

I'd rather they keep doing what they're doing, adding, upgrading, and supporting A6 - all the way to version A6.99. And so many of the features that aren't included in A6 have been developed as plugins by the community... I've never thought of 3DGS as the easiest thing to use, but I'd say the available catalog of features cover just about any reasonable game design.

Rather than finding limited features, I've been continually surprised at just how much can be done with A6.

Let's wait to spend the money on A7 until it can be based on the Unreal2 Engine.
