Introduction: I suppose we've all heard about whats coming in the future of Gaia. However wheres the proof? How much of the features have been done already? Whats the new stuff going to look like? How is it going to affect me? There are so many questions some of us ask, and i hope this report may clear up a few of them, i hope it will open your mind so that you can form your own opinion. I am in no way trying to press my opinion upon you.

23/03/05: I decided to create this thread. I am still seraching for stuff to add.
Please: If any of this information, or any of these pictures are not meant to be here, please tell me and i'll take them down.
Excerpts from Sykosilver and Mikles update F&Q:
GAIA Online Beta Version - Expected in the fall, beta version will be the next stage of GAIA Online. This is the point where very few more features will be added. NOTE: There will be no inventory sweep with beta, you will keep all your items.
GAIA RPG - The GAIA RPG will come with beta. It will include the battle system, maps, NPC's, and quests. There has also been a storyline created for it, that explains the origin of the world of GAIA. Also, background has been made for the NPC's. Plus, special items are being made for use in the RPG, including Special items (nuts, bolts, wierd stuff) and Usable items (potions)!
Back Wings - I'm sure many of you can't wait to get your hands on a nice pair of wings! Well, they're coming! Many users have heard that they'll be a prize from the casino, but they'll actually be the end result of a very, VERY hard special quest to get certain items (you won't be able to wear these items) and combine them to make the wings. ^^ This is so they'll be really special items, but available to a maximum of users.
Special Items - There's going to be items that increase your gold growth and raise your chances of getting random events! :O
All the above confirmed features could be a use for random items described below.

Pictures and notes:
This picture is the most prominent picture i have found, displaying future items.
It displays:

A heart
A bolt
A hamster (slipper?)
A bag of gold
The spine and skull of a penguin?
A feather
An ashtray? A float ring for saving drowning people?
A can?
A purple locked box
There have been comments in Sykosilver and Mikles update F&Q that says about uses for these items (see above). Personally - i think some of these items (like the nut and the bolt) for for back wings, and the wishbone is for increasing chances of getting random events!
This picture was taken at an anime x fesival in California. It was the first screenshot of housing, and there
are many items in this picture that do not yet exist in Gaia. It is fair to say they may exist in a future
version of the housing system.
Housing items contained in the picture:
Window with curtain
Very cushy bed
HUGE flower rug
Love stool
Poster
New kind of lamp
Blue sofa
TV!!!!!
Table for TV
