Thread: Next expansion

    Next expansion

    Posted on community news just now:
    Next expansion

    There is much talk about the next expansion for Anarchy Online these days, and we figured we should let you in on a few secrets while waiting for the more official announcement.

    First, the name of the expansion will not be "Towns of Rubi-Ka". That was a working title, and we now have a release title. You'll have to wait for the press release before we tell you what it is though.

    Second, the expansion will include organisation headquarters and player-built towns, as well as other features focusing on social aspects and character development.

    Third, there will be aliens, of the nasty, aggressive and technologically advanced kind.

    And yes, among all the other stuff there will be new Yalmahas!

    That's the teaser you get for now, to work up your appetite. The full menu will be around soon.
    Feel free to comment, discuss, speculate and hopefully drool a bit.

    Any word on if this will be a pay expansion like Shadowlands or something for everyone to download like Notum Wars?

    I take it this means there will be more sci-fi based content rather than the spiritual stuff in SL. I look forward to it.

    I think Funcom has ADD.

    *dreams of it being called "Outlands" (cuz then maybe that would mean all those closed PFs we have maps of around Rubi-Ka might be opened up finally--or maybe that's for a future expansion pack? hehe), and hopes the Yalmaha Obscura is finally introduced...*

    Ahh whatever it may be, I am SO EXCITED about this expansion pack! I have absolute confidence that this is going to be hella awesome social expansion pack! Really looking forward to hearing more about this SOON™!

    New yalmahas?

    Wow, so excit .. er wait its gone now.

    Unless this new alien race is a fourth faction and breed, and playable, who cares?

    Lets hope you do introduce Outlands, and fill out the the blank spaces on the RK map. I want Plains of Salt damnit.
    <sadisto> Cz: when do you guys plan on fixing faction?

    Org HQs... woot

    Player towns... semi-woot, need to wait and see how this is implemented

    Aliens... hoping this is another player race... otherwise I'm not entirely sure it belongs in this expansion (seems to be a little off-topic from the rest of what's advertised for it and doesn't tie in well with the story as laid out by PWOH and the game itself).

    First thing I can say is please, for the love of all that's holy, don't build up expectations like you did with NW and SL, then fail to deliver on them.

    Like the infamous, "no camping/fun camping" statements made in HOC chats by Gaute and others regarding shadowlands, and the gaming site interviews saying that pocketbosses were there to reduce and eliminate camping (since getting a specific pocketboss entails MORE not LESS camping than any other bosses in the game).
