This is my question too, I want to know when A7 come out. I have A5 Pro but the A6 upgrade seems not worth to me.
I can use Newton for physics, I don't need bone for model ATM, I like the shader but not really a must. But I hate the long long map compile time same as A5. It seems not worth to pay $449 for just shader and bone system upgrade.
I am worry if I upgrade to A6 if A7 release soon, I need to pay again. I purchase the A5 Pro from another person for $600 but soon the A7 release and it is just $899! A6 is more then 2 years now so I afraid the history repeat again.
But if I purchase the A6 today and get A7 for free, I will upgrade NOW.
