"All of the answers to these questions have been provided in previous threads. Admittingly, the big project was announced too early but work on this is being done."
Ok, the big project announced too early, so we have to ask this question again and again. Just say that it won't happen in this year and we can go to vacation calmly and won't disturb you with this question. I think we will continue to ask this in every meaningless "old-item-improvements" update's discussion topic, sorry.
"The project itself has many different parts, each requiring high amounts of time and resources to be invested. Levels will be increased when the big project will be implemented."
Just a prediction, but it's looks like a kind of new game-mode connected in many ways to the current in-game possibilities (like duel or jobs).
"Class character changes is a current ''maybe'', unfortunately I do not have much information on this."
It's a bit sad, because the bonuses are broken in many ways, and there were a lot of good suggestions in different topics. That means it's differ from the big project, right?
"The Fort Formula is also a maybe, quite likely to be changed to an extent but, unfortunately, I do not have an exact date for when this will happen."
Sounds like big project doesn't include that either.
"What exactly do you mean by duel formula?"
Well, I don't really know, just wanted to increase the list length
Just kidding. It's not really a formula related issue, rather be "duel-related issues": like duel-level problem and the soldier tactic bonus is op with the current sets.
I think these small informations help us to put in place this big update. For example, I thought that the big update contains lvl cap increase and character bonus rebalancing. But now I know that it's a whole new feature, and these contents will only be rethought in a later update, after the "big update".
I try to not be too unfriendly and mean. I just a bit frustrated that we know nothing about this game's future. Because everyone knows that there is not too much mentionable new features in the past years. We are a really small community, so I think it doesn't hurt if you say more about the projects. We understand if something which mentioned before won't be a real feature, but we want to see that the team is trying to do something even if it's not finished and we have to wait a bit more for new contents.
