Don't make a core thing yet please
Not yet anyway
Wait a few years
Make a big epic lead-up to it and then don't open it
And then do it again
Don't let the story end like ever
Or add something even MORE important than the core

@Commonforumtroll
I doubt that considering OOO is a small development team and SEGA is almost equal in quality with Nintendo and SK was made back in 2011.

Quick Tip.
Make a 1v1 LD type game. So people can challenge 1v1 not in actual LD but in a seperate minigame.

So, I believe, Spiral Knights is a wonderful game with good potential, and I have over 8000 Hours + on the game on all the knights I've played on so far, but even though I've found the game fun, it's grown pretty repetitive to me since a few months ago. Now even adding just a sprite but no variety to playing kinda drew me away from it, had I played it normally my sprite wouldn't still be lvl 75 but it's no fun using different battle tactics on the same levels and runs. Though I know the development will be promising as they get more ideas and resources and the time to make new things, but until then, I'm more drawn to games that offer variety, and such a thing is normal, trendy things draw me more often and even better if they're free, but of course I'll still play this game when I have the time to spare, but I have a lot of work hours. Overall nick, love the direction you're intending to point this game toward, I presume you already sought out the downsides to your previous update and decided what was best to add and change. I wish you good luck in development and I'll keep up with your Facebook page to monitor any announcements you may release.
Sincerely, ♕ ǨǂŊĢ ♕

@ Sirius-Voltbreaker: In about 6-11 mo. the update will be completed. There's a likely chance it WILL BE RELEASED BEFORE SUMMER BREAK. So, I personally think it's a splendid idea. `_`

Tantarian is pleased by these news. You have done good Popovich.

great work Nick, but where are the yellow snipes for the GH? <69
in all Seerusness, this sounds really nifty I'm glad to say I've been a loyal fan since the beta days. it's been one heck of an amazing ride with innovative features, an eventual overhaul of the entire engine, DLC, pets, and as always the ever vibrant community that fostered both a friendly rivaly and sense of camaraderie whenever we went exploring the clockworks, bellowed various things in haven, Harassed GMs ( you can have Eury, I really like Cronus :D), or just plain had a laugh.
I'm probably overthinking it again but I'd be a tad worried this means SK's about to come to a close? I know all stories should have a denouement story arc but I'd still be sad to see it go.

So, if you plan to introduce a new arcade that's more farmable, as well as a new T3 boss, which one would be more profitable for us players in terms of crowns?

With adding a new legit boss,
With adding a new legit boss, there's 2 catches:
1) The arcade will need a 5th gate slot
2) The boss level will need a Rank 3 Shadow Lair counterpart at the T3 terminal.

Now, if you guys would OPEN THE DOGGONE CORE, and Implement DUAL-WIELD, You will have my deepest of gratitude. :)

Yay, Nick, I love you now. If you make this thread a series of threads released every few months or so, I'll be sure to never leave this community. Could you give us some hints on who the villain and the boss may be? :>
@Shoffizle No.

@Xtweeterx
I'd love that.
I also still think SL's should be in the missions as a one-time-forever mission (in addition to their place in the arcade) because I feel that they do work into the story line. Given how OOO has stopped mission farming in the past, I'm pretty sure OOO has the tools to accomplish doing such a thing.

I have to agree with you excluding that dual-wield part. Just... Just no.

This all sounds great, and while I'm happy to wait a while for these things, please can we have something to end the Ice Age in the Arcade fairly quickly?

WUT?!?!?!?!?!?!?1/1/1/1/
OOO telling us what do they plan? I'm not sure if I dream, !BUT YOU ARE THE BEST! OOO. All these changes will bring many players back to SK, I still can't believe that no one will grind FSC after these updates... new boss, more lore, amazing levels in the arcade...
/applaud and /bow Thank you!
Although some major bugs like this one-> http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/77805 still exist, I can't and I won't forget about them.

@Kamishinlnoyari
Don't get your hopes up. Vanaduke isn't quite safe yet. We still need to compare FSC to the new boss levels with:
Monster encounters
Difficulty
Time length for a standard run
and most importantly; Crown payout after said run.
It will please me to be the first to confirm the results (GET THE REFERENCE).

ermmm.
Some of you guys are freaking out about "sandbox".... which is open world... but Nick didn't say that.
He clearly stated that it would be a NOTE: "sandbox-type experience".
That does not necessarily mean that it'll be an open world of monsters and jellies for all. He's just saying that it would give you the feel of a sandbox game :D
Comprende?!
*yall better say comprendo or I will hunt you down*

I think what he means by Sandbox is that it will be kinda like WoW or GTA, where you can just walk around places and fight, instead of going thru gates in the Arcade.
He means either after the FSC recon module, or the core recon module. Probably the ladder.
