It's pointless to duplicate work because pretty much anything made for one server will have to be remade for the other. We'll release things as they are completed on the dev server to the main server
if possible, however, most of it cannot be moved without downtime or a reset. For a long time, there's always been that promise of "New Era" by staff teams, and it has been cried about by players for even longer. However, I think we're the first staff team who has finally taken "New Era" seriously. Instead of just talking about it and goofing around on RC, we're actually
doing it. I spoke with Chris about compiling a list of everything that is completed, and being worked on, so that we can maybe share that with you.
I don't like that you're making it sound as if the main server has been completely neglected -- I'm almost positive that even though we're focusing on Era Dev, there's been more updates on it now than with previous administrations (the hotel, support center, public bounty system, ingame uploading, spar leaderboards/ranking, pawn shop, and we even managed a little something for halloween).
I remember when I played, we didn't see any updates for months at a time...and when we did, it was something that only benefited a few people (eg releasing a new gang, a few "rare" guns, or auctioning off some new business). Everything I've done has been looking out for the server as a whole.
