I was thinking how EoTn is an expansion for Prophecies (just as Deldrimore War Camp was a free mini-epansion), what if Factions and Nightfall were to get some type of mini-expansion, or even their own stand alone Expansion like EoTn.
I know GW2 is set kinda far off, but new content to Factions and NF with more Elite areas would be really cool.
Looking at the maps, there is lots of land that could be used to upgrade these areas, and im sure AneT would love some more cash to throw at GW2.

Wouldnt you just love to see more content added to your burned out campaigns?

Anet have announced that they will not be releasing any further expansions/stand alone games for GW1, they are working on GW2.
we won't be seeing any kind of expansion or mini expansion for GW.

Last time i checked Eotn can be accessed by cantha and elona too, theyre just not on their maps

totally different than a proph exclusive expansion

Wrath of m0o · Apr 21, 2008, 09:39 AM // 09:39

yeah, but some dungeons on Factions and NF would rock my socks, plus add reasons to go back and revisit these continents.

this announcement alone proves enough, that Anet still cares a shit about, what happens with gw1, once gw2 is out ...

However, hopefully they don't fail with those thigns better not then with GW2!!!

it sucks that I like this game so much, because anet is shitting on us with it. I doubt I buy GW2 due to the way they have done GW1. All we will get is a few weak updates here and there and we will not see any new content. It seems anet doesnt want us to play anymore.

Rat i think that is just a very badly thought out comment. Anet are making huge changes to GW2 from the current game structure and they do give us those weekend events, and some arent bad. I agree with mOo a mini expansion would be great in Factions and Nightfall, heck even one in presearing e.g a dungeon for lvl15+ would be great

legion_rat · Apr 21, 2008, 01:05 PM // 13:05

But they arent going to give us anything. once GW2 hits GW1 will be the ugly stepchild. it will shrivel and die do to anets lack of care. then in 3 years when gw3 comes out gw2 can join gw1 in the closet fighting for crumbs.

Anet seems to run like nintendo. every few years a new system come out instead of crossing them like sega has or xbox. When GW2 was first hyped we had the idea we would be able to take gw1 chars over to the next game and go even further with our favorites.

and yes we get weekend. yay more points from grinding!!!! I wish they lived to their hype.

lets see what gw2 brings. I will wait and see before i buy it.

you cant blame anet. currently the only MMO that can do that is WoW cus all new games are added to original(much like EoTN). Diablo quite possibly one of the best computer games ever made was dumped then came diablo II even better and that was dumped for 11 years. so Anet is actually doing a good job with those weekly updates. You cant compare nintendo with pc completly different consoles, and nintendo does it cus no1 buys their stuff anymore(i still play my N64 btw) so they can continue to make a profit

beregond · Apr 21, 2008, 02:30 PM // 14:30

I like the idea, but it won't happen.

Perhaps a larger scale bonus mission pack would be cooler. Perhaps showing how Cantha started to change under Kisu's successor, or something like that. you can like be in the Canthan army and go pwn the Kurzicks and Luxons!

Esoteric Mesmer · Apr 21, 2008, 02:55 PM // 14:55

It all sounds like a good idea, and I think it would be awesome to see some new content but at the same time I don't want any.

The reason I don't want any is i don't want to see some half-hearted attempt on the part of A-Net to get new content out. The sad fact of the matter is any new content now would be rushed and not refined because they would rather dedicate their resources to GW2.

Essentially I am not willing (same for A-Net) to sacrifice quality in GW2 for some Factions/NF dungeons.

Kain666 · Apr 21, 2008, 02:58 PM // 14:58

Nah no more $$$ for ANet. Wait for GW2...after it is released and if bug-free they can release as many expansions for GW1 as they want.

Chrono Re delle Ere · Apr 21, 2008, 05:37 PM // 17:37

not going to happen, waste of time talking about it....

Winterclaw · Apr 21, 2008, 05:50 PM // 17:50

I'd love for factions to get an expansion and NF one too. However, ANet is too greedy to do something like that. They want everyone to start all over again.

I think it's because someone ran out of mini ideas.

MithranArkanere · Apr 21, 2008, 06:49 PM // 18:49

There are some doors with no use.

For example, in the Easter wall inside Tahnnakai.
Or in the Northern side of Barbarous Shore

They lead nowhere. I would love to give an use to those two doors.
So any mini-expansion could use those doors.

I am not buying GW2, invested to much time into GW1 to just toss it. So unless my toons can travel between GW1 and GW2 I have no use for GW2 and ANET has done said that is not going to happen.

ANET wants anymore of my money they will have create something for GW1.

and that was my whole point in my other posts. I have played almost since day one. add a month I think...anyway, I have spent well over a thousand hours (*close to two) playing and this is pve. I dont pvp unless something is realy wrong with me. My main char has almost a thousand hours. But I am supposed to throw this away and be happy cause we get to play 200 years in the future!!!!oooooooo!!! I would love to see more for GW1. But it wont happen. Anet is a money hungry evil just like WoW, the consoles and anyone else touching games. I love how they brag about being free to play. yeah we spend $120 buck on the campaigns and expansion only to be shut down and have to start all over buying the new campaign and all the new expansions using new chars and leaving our favorites behind.

yes I am bitter.

How is that different to any other free to play games?
You think Anet is money hungry? Guess what? They are a company whose goal is to..... make money. Of course they are going to do what they think will generate revenue.
You don't have to throw anything away, even if you buy GW2 you can come back and play your GW1 characters aswell. I wouldn't think the 200 years in the future is what is appealing to most people who will buy GW2.
You have got almost 2000 hours worth of gaming from a $120 investment, that is better than any other game I have played.
You sound like a spoilt child stomping their feet on the ground because mommy won't buy them a lollipop.

Anet has done a good deal for GW1 already. Just appreciate what you have right now. I'm ecstatic for GW2. I'm sure if they want to make it a great game they're going to have to give up GW1 and move on. I'm sure GW2 will be greater than GW1 and their games are just going to keep getting better xD.

Um try close to $500 AUS. Anet will be more or less owing me money unless my chars can cross over to Gw2. You guys want a bigger populated server? Dont go screwing over the most of loyalest players. We're the ones who've stuck by you over the last last 3 years (close to) Fought off the slurs of the WoW players and continuously fed money to your franchise only to have yall go,

"hmm maybe it's time to start another game?" If i was Anet staff, I'd look at what we'd already made and think.. "hmm maybe we can add something on and listen to what our fans think to make it, y'know just so much better"

Yea I've been lookin forward to a expansion for Factions and NF. Factions mostly. The whole mainland of cantha is got one big east side of land that's got nothing on it... I want to see whats on the other side of those moutains..

/signed.

I'm requesting another Expansion for Cantha. A Factions expansion (long overdue)
