I'm extremely pleased to announce that @Kaz has joined the NG community team, and will be present here on the forums. Feel free to shoot him questions and tag him in conversations that you feel need him.
So yeah, I'm Kaz and I'm really excited to discuss with you about every possible subject!
I've been watching you in a non-creepy way for some time already, so don't worry, feel free to ask me anything. If I can't answer some of the questions, then at least I'll answer that I can't do it, haha.
I came from NG's support team, so I'm really aware of most of the feedback you have been sending to us. And before that, I've worked with other communities as well.
Everyone’s got two wolves inside them. One is anger, envy, pride. The other…truth, kindness. Every day they tear each other apart. But it’s not the better wolf that wins. It’s the one you feed.
I'm going to get you started with a tough Q that you may or may not be able to answer.
How soon should we expect another Council update? This doesn't have to be an exact date, but a general timeframe (e.g., a couple of weeks, over a month, etc.) would be very helpful.
I'm asking because the in-game shop has restocked the Winter weapons bundle, and the last time a very tempting weapons bundle came out was prior to the most recent Council update. It included Morgan's Staff with Concuss, the Pitchfork, and the special arc Katana. I purchased that bundle only for a Council update to be announced literally the next day.
Prior to that bundle sale, Morgan's Staff with Concuss hadn't been for sale for nearly a year (all of the Staffs previously sold had Deadly/Accurate/Destructive), so I imagine quite a few people purchased that bundle when they saw it was available.
Needless to say, the timing of the bundle sale right before the Council update could at best be classified as terrible planning/oversight. At worst, it was an incredibly shady business practice to sell an expensive bundle of desirable gear only for it to be rendered obsolete the next day.

My understanding is that @Kaz is a community guy, @Shteevie is a development guy so they have very different roles.

Let me welcome you properly with some easy questions to answer:
When will the Grind end?
When is the Hero week?
When is the next update?
When are we going to get guaranteed 5 star badges from 5 star components?
Hey Painy! Well, for the grind, update and guaranteed badge results it's basically the same answer, which is: I can't really tell what's going on because it can be changed and then I'll burn my tongue, BUT, we are definitely aware of the most complained issues and also, those topics are being discussed in a lot of meetings. So I would say, the future is bright, can't promise anything though, cool?

We won't have one in the upcoming update. So if you haven't bought the Winter Weapons yet, I would recommend doing so! I'm for sure waiting for the Flare Pistol again because I thought I wouldn't want it before, but apparently I do.
Nobody in their right mind would willingly take on this forum, except for you, you badass, @Kaz , welcome!
Haha, well, every time something is being discussed, things get a little bit hot, it's the human nature I guess. But we can always love each other in the end... (right?)

I think there is plenty of agreement on the forums that we all love @Jenng "in the end". Welcome to the club!

You better have traits combo like: iron skin, dedensive stance, vigilant, dodge, luck, strong and bullet dodge cause you'll need them here hahah.
Hazardous suit would be nice too, for them flames heheh
More like hazardous pay!

Welcome @Kaz so a long time back, they made survivors have no level cap, so we could upgrade our top ones to max level based on training grounds. Are there any imminent plans to do the same for gear ? It’s hard to stomach buying any cool new weapons or armor, when you know it will be outdated after the next council upgrade. Thoughts ?
Welcome aboard @Kaz you will certainly have your work cut out with this demanding bunch.
Sometime I think they are like a person who complains after winning the lottery because they bought two tickets and therefore wasted a quid!
One random thought, what power do our forum staff have?
For example if you find a nugget of inspiration here could you implement it yourself, influence the powers that be or just pass it on?
Haha, yeah. But of course, every feedback means something. At least the lottery person expressed their feelings, which is already better than a silent customer. And yeah, I CAN influence the development of the game, but of course, it depends on the case. If a player is asking for something like... "chainsaw" weapon, then my first reaction would be: "well, that's cool!" but of course this suggestion has to go through a huge process to decide if we are going to add it to the game or if we are, then when would be the right time. But I think your hidden question is: "does it worth complaint about something?" and yes, it does. A lot! If I've answered you something completely random, then sorry, haha.

For now, I know that we won't change this. Maybe in the future, who knows?:D

I'm expecting in 3 weeks... Sooner than that?
The off topic section of the forum is very formal, don't forget your hat!

ps: sorry, mate! HAHA, 10/10 would recommend to a friend. For now, I know that we won't change this. Maybe in the future, who knows?:D Nananananananananan ni, ni (That was Axl Rose).
Thanks, mate! That's some fancy hat, man. Thanks for the tip. I won't forget that!
