Pretty straight forward question here, I'd like to know when the other four capital cities are going to be introduced. They said it would be shortly after retail release, so you news aggregators need to spill the beans and tell me what the ETA is. Thanks in advance :)

Search. You couldn't find an ETA. Let me help you finding a solution for your hard problem here:

ETA: UNKNOWN.

You're wecome.

I am more concerned about the missing classes that should have been in at launch.

I agree. Though, I would prefer to play a Slayer (lore aside) than a Hammerer.

I am more concerned about the four capital cities that their respective races are missing, and were promised shortly after retail release. That is a lot of major content that they cut, and have remained silent about. It is crystal clear that Inevitable City and Altdorf are both human cities, and if you explore them you run into a lot of stuff that just highlights that fact.

Right now, besides the sheer content missing, four races and all the players thereof have no 'home' which is constantly referred to throughout the game and its awkward on all counts. The longer this thing goes on, without any kind of word from EAMythic, the more obvious it will become to the players.

Gazenthia, I can see you are very passionate about this, so please don't take this the wrong way.

I don't see the cities as content par se. Unless the unavailable cities have some amazing purpose that I'm unaware of, then I can live without them. So far I've only used Altdorf for the auction house, guild vault, and to purchase a vehicle.

As it stands now, people are already getting bored with the inability to play the way they want to play. After all, the player is the toon, and not the city, correct? In the case of Order, there is a gaping hole in melee dps. I'm well aware of the Witch Hunter (a rogue/indirect combat type) and the White Lion (majority of utility skills are on their pet and not many like pet classes).

Games need to introduce reasons for players to create a toon and give them a desire to develop said toon. Without that continuing factor, then endgame sieges simply aren't going to be an issue.

So much else to prior than that actually.

darwa I have a suspicion about who you and a few other people are. With that aside...
 

Capital cities are massive pieces of content.

There is absolutely no (zero) ''ifs', 'ands', or 'buts' about it, and to say otherwise is insane and/or stupid. I'm sorry to be that blunt, but it is. As I expected after reading that line, the rest of your post makes no sense whatsoever.

Like what?

These are major chunks of game content that were promised to be reintroduced shortly after retail release. We haven't heard one solitary word about the cities and we are nearly 3 weeks into the game. If they don't say anything, I will not resub.

I'd love to know about your suspicions. I mean that honestly. I'll even give you a prize if you guess who I am :)

Oh, and using a large red font really doesn't help. Neither does calling my opinion insane or stupid.

However, as my first line acknowledged your emotional state, I won't take it to heart :)

You think more cities should be the top priority, and I see them as nonconsequential. I can live with that :)

Can you link to where they promised to add the cities? All I heard was that the cities were cut into one instead.

An opinion? No.

Your argument was that capital cities are not, in fact, content. That is like saying that in your opinion, the ocean consists of Pepsi.

I think you're letting your frustration cloud your ability to understand what I said.

Regardless of how nice you appear, or how much I want to try and help you, I'm afraid that I can't deal with you in this state.

I hope you find comfort in your next game :)

This is what I am afraid of. This is something else they promised would never happen- paying for the previously cut content. But they also said we would see the cut stuff after retail release, so there you go.

"I hope you find comfort in your next game"

They have until my 30 days are up to say something about it, and what they say had better be good. If not, I may very well go back to WoW purely to spite EA.

That's just a guess obviously, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until it happens.

But it would not surprise me in the least.

Ok but you failed to answer my question. I asked for OFFICAL words on the cities returning shortly after launch.

I agree with the OP that the cities are content but atleast they announced well before hand that they would not be in. Not that it is a good excuse atleast they are honest. I personally would not expect to see them anytime soon and feel that the missing classes would be much more important.

is either game breaking IMO no although it can be upsetting to be short some melee DPS as Order and would like to see more content from the cities. I personally would rather they not add the extra cities unless they raise the server pop caps as I feel there is already to much content for the playerbase.

There are alot of PQ's and RVR zones that really need some attention and there are alot of people playing on my server but to much conent for a few thousand people to keep going. I hate to say this as it makes the game so easy to level but scenario XP needs a big time nerf while PQ and world RVR needs a major buff.

Mythic did a great job of making sure the content was there but missed the boat on population issues. Altdorf is seeing better pops now but not what a capitol city should be at iMO. Imagine the people there spread between 2 other citys.

You can look it up yourself why should others do the work for you? Do you get your mom to cash your welfare checks? Just google it and see but noone is denying that they were cut they were just postponed.
