This will be a game changer! Get it! This is honestly some of the most exciting stuff on the roadmap.
I have a question. In this post New Terrain, and Parts, and Built-In Materials, Oh my! @RBLXImagineer said
Will this be released with the new terrain materials?
Are we still getting a May update? Been curious to see an update on the roadmap. 
Not another 2FA app 
Please, PLEASE use either the Google Authenticator app, the built in security services that iPhones/Androids offer, or SMS.
I have two or three Authenticator apps for School and for things like uPlay. They are all annoying, The Steam Auth app is second least annoying, and the LEAST annoying is plain ole’ SMS.
OFC, not everyone has an SMS which is why other options like email are nice, and kids can just use their parent’s phones if they need to (most kids have phones now, right?)
New roadmap update, can be found here .

SMS is exploitable and vulnerable to SIM swapping
Who says it’s “another” app? TOTP (what Google Authenticator implements) is a standard, also not one made by Google btw. Google Authenticator just happens to be the most popular TOTP app.
In regards to outlines I would suggest:
If this go through and becomes a private beta, I wonder if I could get in. This looks REALLY interesting
Rather disappointing to see that MaterialsService has been completely dropped, and that there are no plans to extend SurfaceAppearance to have tiling or be usable on BaseParts and UnionOperations.
Also interesting to note that the previous roadmaps have been completely removed and the only way of viewing them is via archived webpages, almost like Roblox doesn’t want you to see what features have been silently dropped… 
Don’t start conspiracy theories, please.
I think a minor degree of speculation is reasonable when they suddenly vanished from the site without a trace, warning, or announcement.
Probably because they have no reason to keep it in the first place.
Where did the section that said what quarter of what year these might get released go? Detroit?
I among many wish for more transparency between the company and us as developers, but planned features carry no guarantees. We can’t outright point fingers at Roblox just for changing their minds and not telling us, or why.
Speculate if you’d like, but they’re not trying to keep secrets. They just decided to cease pursuing it.
It may very well come back as another planned feature in the future - like MessagingService once was, I believe.
The main point I was getting at was that it seemed very much like they were trying to silently brush said features under the rug, by hiding previous roadmaps and failing to acknowledge that they existed.
If we’re being frank, Roblox has a history of issues keeping the statuses of its current and planned features up to date. The Roadmap itself is far from the original page for upcoming features. It’s not beyond the possibility that they just don’t want to maintain the older instances anymore, and not because they want to sweep scrapped features under the rug.
Just recently in Release Notes for 482, there was some discussion about how a lot of flags (even from previous Release Notes) still say “Pending.”
I don’t like that they’ve hidden the previous roadmaps either, but if anything it’s because Roblox likely doesn’t want to be responsible for actively updating them anymore, at least until they’ve upgraded their flag checking systems.
We actually identified what was causing a lot of the Release Notes items to go incorrectly updated. You might start seeing them be much more accurate in the near future.
Please note that the roadmap is not a comprehensive list of features we are looking into. To reference the page directly - ‘This is not a complete list of all features we’re currently working on; it is merely some large features which we are currently investigating, ordered by how far along we are in our investigation.’. A feature being removed is not particularly evidence that Roblox is no longer pursuing it (and equally this message shouldn’t be taken as evidence that Roblox is pursuing the feature!).
We continue to improve the roadmap updating process, as clear communication with the creator community is super important to us!
As an aside, new roadmap update, can be found here .

I am really glad they are working on 2FA with Authenticator App as many accounts are at risk of being hacked through the current system. I can’t wait to see this out of beta for us to use safely to keep our accounts safe and secure from hackers. As someone who has been hacked recently and lost quite a lot (my most visited game and 62,000 Robux), I really hope that the 2FA using an app comes out soon.
Also, I love that they are looking into adding the ability to rename groups in the future.
