In short if they do not have a team in place that could create a good crafting system allready it just wont happen prior to release or likely at all. The game is moving in a different direction and they are concentrating their attention on other things such as dynamic events and world pvp.
Every game has to make design decisions and set priorities. Every game budget has a limit. It looks likely they chose to make a simple crafting system that satifies the basics and concentrate their resources elsewhere. While I would love to see a game come out that does to the crafting system what GW2 appears that it will do to questing - I do not expect GW2 to be that game.
Well, the tester confirmed that the game is only in Alpha now. It takes about a years time to bring a MMO through Beta. In other words we should be lucky to see the game out in 2012. No way in hell you will see this before summer.
If it was up to me, all crafting would come out of all MMO...its so boring lol. I like how TOR did it as you can just have your companions do everything, but even that I found boring lol. I sure hope that the game isn't delayed due to a feature that is zzzzzzzzzzzzzz...though I know there are many who love it..which Ill never get :-)..other than they like to torture themselves to feel more immersed.
