im actually a little excited about this :). Please let us use our starting cities again its not our fault ur new cities suck :p
I am totally underwhelmed by the Freeport update and the future Qeynos update.
There have been a lot of posts lately about ‘fluff’ and wasted effort. This would have to top my list of misuse of resources.
Well we know one thing is for sure, no starting isles are back and level 20 to quest in the city.
I give up.
After watching the video, I got to wonder who in the **** came up with this idea.
We asked for the starting isles back. Instead were getting quest hubs for level 20-40,80, and there redoing the quests in the hoods as they call it.
I think they totally misunderstood what the player base wanted. Over a thousand man hours they said to bring us what.
I still cant create a toon and raise in freeport.
One has to wonder why there is such a communication divide between the player and the devs. It is obvious they will do whatever they want to do regardless of what the player base has been asking for.
Did anybody ask for this, I think we asked for the mess to be cleaned up now that Lucan is back but a total revamp that does nothing for starting a toon in freeport.
