Does anyone have any news about possible new classes or races?

I tend to disagree on the classes, I believe (I could be wrong, feel free to go back and read it like I have 25x) the "State of the Game" said that Gaunt was going to come out "within a few weeks' and during OBT. They also spoke about a "ranged" class. Then all of a sudden OMG it's launch time! And we get a broken Gaunt with no class.

They mostly just tease, vaguely, or stall, for long periods of time, while the playerbase reach 30+ page forum threads and leveling their 6th alt while waiting (unless they leave), and once the Devs finally did announce new races, they actually charge IRL money for one of them (two, incl Menzo Drow)... and hold back Drow for several months... in a Dungeons & Dragons game. And they tease, oh so vagely, about classes, without even close to a release date. Rarely an official word. Rarely a response to anything important, or just stalling answers not saying much, if anything.
They have done this since the betas. I have yet to see them showing a change of their ways.
Classes rumored to be coming are Archer Ranger and Scourge Warlock, from people datamining (IIR) the game, but naturally they won't say diddly squat about them, or when, not even a rough estimate like "this year".

So to OP;
Ambis happy post and mine for a reality check.

Would have been better if he had kept his mouth shut instead of teasing a "ranged" class which obviously only exists in his imagination and won't be done for months if ever.

Would have been better if they had established and nurtured an open and honest communication with their customers and playerbase, outlining current states and future projects with details added as often they could, and not going back on their word or lie about merchandise people payed for under false advertising.
Or they could start now, before it really is too late in alot of peoples minds. Somehow I doubt it.
