I hope this is not true

Didn't they say to deliver content every 6 months? So the nxt chapter should be in by december, no?

I think they said every 6-9 months.

Alex Weekes said this a while ago here at the Guru.

Each expansion will provide more content than typical for an expansion, as well ... that's why we call them Chapters, because each chapter we release will include approximately the same amount of new content as the original release.

A Chapter is an actual expansion set that you go out and buy at the store. It's not the only way they add content. This summer I believe they're planning to add two new explorable areas through Live Update -- not a Chapter, but definitely new content.

when it come out, im going to buy it

I am going to buy the expansions if I am going to be able to buy them online without any shipping costs. The game costed me more than 50 british pounds in shipping (which is more than the actual game).

DrSLUGFly · Jun 28, 2005, 06:23 AM // 06:23

when it comes out, I will buy it... and I'll end up paying about 3 times as much for it because of limitations on payment methods

New content is coming this summer, too, so it won't be that long. Plus, we're getting all kinds of new features every week.

Look on the bright side, at least you'll save up some money for an extra couple of months

Yep it is true, so you can expect empty servers in December / January.

Will have to see what the new areas are that are due for release in a few weeks, but even with them I can't see it keeping the majority for more than an extra month or 2. It will become a casual PvP game only.

Dunno Avenger. I'm so much for PvP, that's why I joined the game - sure I'm going to be playing PvE until I found EVERYTHING.

But still, PvP is the objective. Mobs are stupid - people are smart (some at least), that's the REAL challenge!!
IMNERHO.
