We’re of course working on an expansion, though we’re not really ready to talk about that now. We do think it will launch early next year, though. We’ll start leaking more information about that soon, though

 

 

fix bug with expansion?

It''s one thing to have a opinion, but enforcing one is unconstitutional.

Probably an expansion to add a huge number of new bugs about the time they fix most of the ones in the released game.  :P

I'll wonder if this will tie in with the xbox release?

From the sounds of their recent interviews about the XBox version, I doubt it will be released anytime this year, if at all.  As for the "expansion" they're developing, I think an MMO should always be working on new content along-side fixes.  HOWEVER, for them to have plans for an expansion so soon after initial release (and a release that was lacking in sufficient content) is a slap int he face to purchasers who bought in around launch.  It's a good game, offers some new features and style, but it doesn't have enough content for late-game characters and the current siege system is nothing short of a mess.

Yeah you can diss WoW all you like but WoW introduces the MOST mid-expansion content. They just added a new free raid. Then you got games like DAoC where they rinse people for 7 expansions and it still lacks content.

I pay respect where respect is due - but how about LOTRO - they add tons of stuff in free content updates or "chapters" how they like to call them.

or how about EVE ... which releases full blown expansions for free every six-ish months. While wow does add significant free content, it is definitely not "the most" as you describe it.
