Love seeing the roadmap with possible new features, and loving the new items/critters. My favorites are definitely the nightquills and the zapscours. Funky lil dudes! Also very happy to see new members joining the team!
With that said... I am compelled to put in my own two cents, especially about the concerns being raised.
I understand things take time to iron out, and an in-game economy will certainly not balance itself overnight, but players would really appreciate even a fairly simple post such as: "We're looking at some possible solutions/methods to help with the issue, here's some of our ideas but bear in mind that nothing is final".
If you need more time to work that out, that's definitely something players would understand. But, if you don't communicate that, then everyone will only grow further frustrated — especially when it seemed to be implied that the economy would be, at the very least, addressed with this update.
Please do bear in mind— I am glad for the recent levels of communication, it does feel like it's starting to go in the right direction. But, with the utmost respect, I do think there is room to grow.
