Don't hold your breath. There's also this video from 2017 where character class revisions for The West were hinted at, but InnoGames never offered any follow up or tangible deliverables. I'm not sure "tangible deliverables" is a goal for any The West development outside of more premium pay-to-win sets, occasional tweaks to preexisting items, and new quests with bizarre requirements.

My point, as mentioned in Miss Florida's post, is that Innogames needs to stop using one of the only means of communications with fans of the game (YouTube videos) as a carrot on a stick with no foreseeable pay off. If you aren't sure about a new feature or it's only being "discussed" then that should be an internal "need to know" basis item or items that don't get shared with the users.

All that does is leave your player base disappointed and jaded about any future "improvements".

It´s been exactly 1 year since "Big Update" was teased: Big Update
Any progress 12 months later?
Progress has been made on our end. Many of these features are still being created, tested and fixed, thus unfortunately we cannot release any information yet. Of course, as soon as anything is confirmed, there will be an announcement made :).

many are still being created ... yes and maybe 1 feature is getting tested and 2 years after its release it will be fixed am i right ?
it would be nice to hear which things are getting tested and which will be created ..... u dont have to say exactly what it is but something like : ''we are testing new jobs '' or ''we are testing a new ff-formular'' or ''we are creating new items''.... '' for this year we are planning to add new jobs'' ''in the secound step were going to rebalance fort fights'' ect pp.....
so we would know if progress is being made or not - but saying nothing for one whole year lets u players think u did nothing...

and maybe u should rethink the idea of this beta world.. on tw open beta nothing is being tested ... would make sense to test a lot of things on a beta world instead of internal test worlds (i assume that u have internal test worlds as u said u are testing things.. not that i know that u have some .. im just assueming it ;) )...

its easier to test with player feedback
think about that
u dont have to test it on ala or ene - just make amchitka open to all players and make it an open test world with real tests of things and ideas and get feedback
after u got feedback u can decide if u want to have a new feature on live servers or not

New jobs, new jobs locations, new questgivers and , of course, the new levels are some example of what is being worked on :)

If you ask me I have a strong feeling there is nothing in the works... This is just a hook so we keep waiting and that means they not loosing those players who are still believe in this "big update" :D

Without evidence, I believe and I no longer trust anyone. In the end it is just hot air and not more. As long as Miss Florida ( from Innogame Department The-West ) doesn't provide evidence! I don't trust her anymore

You have confused me with Etriel, I don´t have anything to do with that announcement.

Ups sry red values on other worlds someone showed a video and posted Miss Florida. I didn't think of you, thought she comes from Florida and works at InnoGames

No she is not. The person in that video is "etriel" a.k.a. Magda. She was the last Lead Community Manager for The West. She played on the Polish servers. I know this because I was once a Social Media moderator and a game moderator for NET and she was my "boss".
