This is very much in line in what I have read.
-Higher level cap before 3.0.
-New classes before 3.0
-Gun and dagger classes that Yoshi has talked about a few times.

But my speculation is if there is a Gun class it will be Red Mage. Yoshi basically said one of the first jobs to be added would be Red Mage.

From what i remember from translation he just said Red mage is one of the classess he would love to see added in the game cause he is a big Red Mage fan. Didnt say it was one of the first jobs to be added.

Well, with your giant run on sentence of a post, that wasn't very clear.

That video is literally useless to those who cannot get into the site. Please re-upload it some place else or take some screenshots of some parts showing graphs and stuff like that for us please.

Well considering it's SE's video, I don't think he's really allowed to re-upload it somewhere else. You could just sign up for niconico as well, unless you have it blocked for some strange reason.

The gun class isn't what people are expecting it to be.

Given that Red Mage and Blue Mage were actually talked about a lot coming off Musketeer in beta, and Corsair is just ridiculously obvious, I'm going to say Dancer. A ballet of shooting people in the face would be pretty damn awesome.

Frontlines are aiming to be in 2.3! (They made it seem like it was an 8v8v8, not confirmed though)

---

Really hope that's a mistake, because as far as I remember, they've always made Frontlines out to be an open world PvP area. I've certainly not been expecting anything half as good as ESOs Cyrodiil, but this would just be terribly disappointing.

True. It's not just one statement. He's made a few of them. We know Musketeer is something since 1.0 that should be added. So there is a gun class. And we know that he wants a dagger/stealth class as well. After that, it is really conjecture. But the only class I know he's mentioned by name is Red Mage. And I think he said something along the lines of, it can't be a FF game without a Red Mage. Again, I could be wrong. But that was what I remember.

But a guy can freaking hope! I would love to shoot people in the face with status changing affection!

I don't think this game has enough of a dedicated/interested PvP playerbase to support an open world PvP area, unless it was cross-server (which it doesn't sound like it is). Perhaps they realized this and changed it to a 24-man battleground type thing?

I honestly don't know how I'd feel about that. On one hand the large-scale open world Frontlines system did sound kinda cool and it would be unfortunate if it was scrapped but on the other hand I just don't see how this game could support it. The place would be deserted 90% of the time, certainly it'll be nowhere near the population of GW2's WvW. And some objective-based battlegrounds would be a very nice change of pace from the stupid 4v4 arenas we have now.
