That’s not true. Wube is working of a big Factorio 2.0 style update. They push updated on what they’re doing every other Friday, and they all go in detail and are very interesting.
Factorio 2.0 will shine brighter than ever before. Also, there is murmurs of possibly open sourcing faction later in the lifecycle.
