We all thought it would coincide with the CNY but it looks like it's going to sync with the Dragon Festival which will happen on the weekend after this next one.
They'll have a "mystery update" which will read "decorations for DF" and stuff like that.
That'll be the groundwork. I expect WoC to drop in the middle of the day Saturday with a tengu assassination attempt upon the emperor, hopefully thru a special mission that sounds innocuous so we can all see it.
Then the PR campaign starts with snippets from the new ministry of purity, then the missions and bounties start.

I hope it will be so much more than that, but I don't honestly see how they are going to improve upon that. ANet has pleasantly surprised me before and I hope they do so again.

I do wish they would put more thought into the NPC locations. Running from Tolkano to the Imperial Faction trader when trying to dump my faction into Z Keys is incredibly annoying (when dealing with a smaller Balthazar Faction cap). It seems worse on the Kurzick side of FA but the Luxon side of JQ makes me not even bother. I just wait until it gets crazy full then go to a better outpost to do it.

Haven't been able to test this but, what if your pve character doesn't have the other side unlocked? Will the spy still transport you there?

I highly dout it, probably have the same coding that stops you doing it from GToB

I'm going to put this out there and say the spies are related to WoC. The spies are traveling to territories where Kurzicks and Luxons fight over. Perhaps these spies are from the Dragon Empire. Starting to find away to end the war and unite? idk just random guess..

I am mildly amused that "Shady Luxon" appears standing in the shade in both outposts.

Agreed, I am thinking something like the Shining Blade Camp someplace. The update does say the new spies have been spotted NEAR JQ/FA and not IN JQ/FA.

Am I the only one that came to the conclusion that the spies being in the outpost is considered near the combat zone and not in it?
They are near the quarry and near the fort.

Not the only one, this is pretty obvious. Can't believe you were the first to say it and it took until the second page for someone sensible to chip in.

Might it be worth looking around to see if these spies have appeared in any "undocumented" locations? Of course, I don't need much of a reason to go exploring in GW anyway...

Very happy about the flash enchant fix

Yes. No one is required to feel irrational entitlement and complain when it isn't satisfied. I do blame those who do and appreciate those who don't.

When we pretty much know for sure that the big Cantha-focused PvE update will be coming out on the same day as the big Cantha-focused holiday, and yet we still get a thread of people crying about a small update, yes, yes, I can. It's downright childish. I'm still having fun with the PvP updates, and yet the forums have, if anything, gotten worse since that update; the disconnect between what I see in game (ie, lots of happy people playing) and what I see on these boards is so vast that I'm sure half of these posters simply don't play anymore, and are just here to bitch about updates that wouldn't get them back into the game if ANet offered free blowjobs and pie.
