speculation time then: since the main problem of newcomers is not having friends around (and surprisingly, this game isnt one id start with other friends, contrarily to other mmos) , i think the update will be some kind of matchmaking.
I have no doubt many will complain that something like that is useless to them, but game organisation is important even if they dont realize it. Id also say to them that, while its great to fantasize about what the perfect game would be for you, you dont realize the work load for some changes, and u should remember that u only have a very small view of the issues that plague the game.
As an analogy, its great to have an orgy, but someone will have to clean up the place and that wont be sexy, but still its necessary .
Last point, i do think better communication can help. Jcf hopefully will agree with me that starting the poll on which buildings we want first, then having jail open 2 days after, was a very unfortunate incident so what i d like to have is a table like this :
Update we re working on/ETA:
new pose (1 month)
small avatar customization (a week)
new building/minigame (2 weeks)
Improving Pm/friend system (still brainstorming)
Game organisation system (3 weeks)
Even if it hits an obstacle and u dont deliver quite in time, i think seeing what s being worked on, or even considered, would soothe some tempers. Also the feedback could be done BEFORE its fully implemented, which would feel much better to us (with the usual caveat that forum pple are only a fraction of the players, but its still the best way to consult us imo)
