It would be nice to have a hint of a road map at least or at least a hint of what the next update might be about if they already know. Of course they would never say anything this early on seeing as how much things change and the focuse might change, so I dont expect it until a couple weeks after release.

But it still would be nice hehe. Just a hint. Like "the next patch will probably be about X" hehe

Yeah that last roadmap went out the window but I'm curious whether they plan to return to small, frequent, and focussed updates or if the semi-annual mega-update is the new normal. I'm fine with either, really. Frequency is good but longer cycles give them more opportunity to do interesting stuff.

Well its stopped being small regular updates since 1.3. So yeah they should give us an update as to what their model is. I personally prefer bigger updates that take longer, sinces thats what this game needs. Not small updates. But system overhauls like this war update or culture etc. So I'm happy with how they're doing things rn better than the previous smaller updates that didnt have a focus and didnt really introduce massive changes

I figure we'll still have DDs following launch for post release patches.
So perhaps something like a month of DD ahead of us still?
After that, maybe a roadmap could be feasible.

I have to immagine that they’ll be on the edge of their seats regarding the reception of 2.0 for some time, trying to be reactive with adjustments / fixes. There will most likely be some bugs and oversights that havnt been caught during inhouse beta testing.

(The recent discussion about manpower interaction with levies arguably being unintuitive commes to mind as a potential oversight in this way?)

... Still, the dev team is probably planning ahead as we speak, both in terms of content design and evolved game mechanics in the year ahead.

The proletariat are running amok in the forum, we should release the DD now to stem the tide.
We are not elephants. We don't run amok.

(Yes we need mechanics for elephants running amok.)

Next DD: Patch Notes
Last DD for a while after the next DD: Roadmap for the next updates and DLCs

Roadmap (hopefully^^):
1. Diplomacy (+subjects) and Trade (plus naval enhancement and tying the navy somehow to trade) update. Faction DLC: Eastern factions around Persia and Arabia (fitting partially to trade).

2. Economy and Tribes update. Add some new features to the economy tab including a better debt/deficit system, some economy tweaks, building enhancement, tribal government rework including migratory tribes, colonization tweaks. Faction DLC: Tribal factions in a "barbaric" area like Gaul.

3. Characters, Politics and government update. Add some cool mechanical and flavourful features to characters and internal politics, refine civil wars. Add Cursus Honorum and some refinements to republics; refinements, some feature and flavour additions to monarchies (like ruler family tree, Dynastie Legacy comparable to CK III - just an idea, what it could be!). Faction DLC: Indian factions including Maurya.


Edit: After the three updates maybe a second war update, including tactics rework, battle enhancement, more different units, etc., then more differences between government subtypes.
Also constantly adding flavour (like more Holy Site Artwork, events, etc.) would be nice.

I don't know if I can survive weeks without a dev diary after the patch notes DD. I only barely made it through Christmas. This isn't a drug you can cold turkey. Like opiates you need to slowly relax the dosage over time.

Please, Arheo, for my health, don't stop DD's altogether after the patch notes...I may not survive this time. This is a heartfelt plea. My medical insurance doesn't cover DD withdrawal therapy.

@Basileus2 has gained the trait: "Information Withdrawal"

-0.5% health per week
This effect cannot be treated by the court physician!
The modifier will remain until regular Developer Diaries are resumed.
