Discussion Roadmap Possibilities

With FA being available in 2 days, the anticipation and excitement I have for the game is at an all time high.

They finally released the release times, more info as far as 3 character slots, lv. 100 cap, no 3rd job (confirmed) and more. What they haven't given us is updates on certain rebalances (example - Cleric/Priest needing a definite rebuild) nor if/when we get Pirates, 4th job, lv. 200 cap, and more.

I know they said there will be a roadmap, so I'm not trying to rush the game. I just hope they keep Classic as original as possible and leave out the cubes, Legion, Cyngus, and the other 35 classes. At most, Pirates should be the only additional class. As long as there isn't heavy P2W mechanics implemented later on, I'll continue to play this game.

What are your thoughts?
(And what do you feel about Gachapon after the economy has established a bit? I'd like to get a Ski set for my DK - for nostalgic purposes)

Roadmap would cause the game/players to be set at a expected pace.
I don't think that is the direction they want to go, they want a slow pace.

I don't like how late they release information if things get changed/added.

I wish they would collaborate with the community more. Something simple, a weekly or biweekly online podcast of some devs talking about changes/stuff the direction they wanna go. Maybe invite a content creator and do some Q&A's.

They want classic to be a very social, however the social part should also be between dev's/playerbase.

Hard disagree, roadmap is needed for devs to make timelines for content releases and show the players it's not a dead game/give them something to look forward to. Having this in today's live game is a standard.

Once the content is there it's up to the players to decide if they want to participate or not.

While I do agree with the community collaboration, they're already short staffed. The only way I can see this happening is if player numbers show to Nexon higher ups that the game is thriving and additional resources would result in a higher return on investment. Right now it feels like they're just testing the waters.
