Next expansion?

does anyone have any idea of when the next expansion pack is coming out

July 4th. Complimentary fireworks for all Americans who pre-order. Uk pre-orders get a cup of tea in a crate labelled Boston.

Nothing concrete has been stated as far as I am aware. Only a general ambition to publish a new chapter every 6-9 months.

Lol. Be better if the box was slightly soggy and the return address was Boston Harbor.

official Anet word is first half of 06 for the first followed twice a year thereafter

Jeesus christ!

think I'd rather pay and have 3monthly expansions!

I played City of Heroes for over 3 months and I got so completly bored stiff with waiting for an expansion that I lost all interest in the game completly!

damn, I'd better start looking for another game to play now..

dont get me wrong I love guildwars.. but I cant play the same game for over 6 months

Any suggestions?.. Starwars? Everquest?..

The Snowman.

Civilization Series. Civ 4 is coming too. I can play Civilization until I die.
Best over all game ever made.

I am posertive the update tonight will give us the new area of Sorrows Furnace :-) I will be gutted if not

There is going to be a update tonight?

Yep, the long awaited free content update!


A free web-based wargame you can play from anywhere!

My bro said that it may be coming out in Sept...guess that isn't true..

06?!?! That's too far away...*sniffs*

there is only so long we can be drip fed new content like this... I mean, one or two new areas, how long exactly will it take to explore every inch of those?

As I've posted on 'The state of Guildwars' thread.. its not the content or the amount of things to do which is making people bored or the general losing of interest.. its the addictive elements of showing off, prowess, individuality and uniqness.. there just isnt anything to fight for not even the glory of your own guild..

If they released new playable content every month.. this would be enough to keep me going, but..SIXTH WHOLE MONTHS?... lol.. just think about it.. summer will have come and gone, August bank holiday..Autum will arrive,... then winter..christmas.. new year.. january sales..... can anyone seriously beleive they will still be playing then???

answer honestly now

Thanks for the heads up on civilisation, I'll try that.

Im just going on titbits ive been fed by admins and putting two and two together to make five. The free content should be tonight. The purchase upgrade will be later in the year. It is suppose to be more difficult and will take longer to complete. A bit like Fissure and Underworld. Ive set my self up by saying its tonight and will be gutted if not because im getting bored as well. Im a PVE player and need new areas to explore.

I have nto yet completed the game but I know if they say around 06 ish then I will have completed it by then with all of my characters...I hope that it comes out later this year...



If not..I will be sad...

I don't play 23 hours and 55 minutes a day.....so I can wait the six months for the update.

I couldn't disagree with you more snowman.

I want more content, more dungeons especially. This download isn't all that much that's true but heck, the games brand new and they jumped all over the problems. Some will say too much but it's nice to see Dev's working.

If they keep feeding me content every other month I'll easily make it to next year for the full up expansion. I don't think any where near the majority of people have finished the game even though it doesn't take long.

Giving us shiny blades or titles don't mean a thing to me. I want challenging content. Content so hard that most players whine and complain that it's impossible. New zones are great if they're hard enough, progressive dungeons would be my preference but I can see the problems there for developers.

Quoted because, well, he spoke for me too

I'm not so much for amazingly hard content - sure put some in - but rather fun and interesting gameplay. Diverse quests. fantastical monsters. Amazing locales.

I loved making the root bridges in the jungle.
I like using the siege engines on the Chavs - take that for gwen and althea you @!#$s!
The first time i saw a drake, griffon of dwarf on . on.. whatever it is they ride!

keep playing HL 2 until you figure out what happened with the plot!

according to Anet it will be first half 06 and closer to 2nd quarter 06 rather than early 06

as for content that is exactly what the next chapter will give

maybe some people are just leveling too quickly for the sole purpose of saying they are done....i've had hours and hours of endless fun soloing Hydras for the last couple of days. and simply seeing how far north or south or east or west the game will let me go. Stop worrying about what happens next and just play the game
