As for volume 3, so long as they focus on developing RWBY, JNPR and Cinder's gang I'll be more satisfied; the tournament sounds like a great opportunity to explore the principle cast outside of the regular "go to school and fight evil" routine they have. I'm okay with throwaway and tertiary characters being introduced so long as the episodes don't become just opportunities to show how badass they are (BTW, is there such a thing as too many badasses? I mean, I'm okay with meeting a team of subpar/underdog hunters for a change)
