[Developers' Notes] Saint's Forcecalibur

[KAMIKADzE]

We thought you might enjoy some official notes, nice and early for a change ;-)

We are still some time away from the next update, since Legacy of Darkness went live not too long ago, but as usual ESTsoft are progressively updating their own test servers. The following information is NOT definitive, as it is all still in progress, but it should give you some idea of what to expect. Features might be added, removed, tweaked, changed, edited, names might be changed, and so forth - please keep that in mind. These are ONLY the notes we receive from ESTsoft, also keep in mind that we do not have this update on our test server yet, so I cannot be more specific about any of the information below. I will keep this post updated and edited as we receive more official information from ESTsoft, including pictures.
