Ayakaru.6583 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I have several thoughts on what could be the next expansion, but it won't be Cantha, nor will it be an UW themed one. I think the balance patch of UW combat is mostly qualitative of nature, to enhance the game itself, rather than prepare for a future expansion. That said, future maps no longer have to dread UW content because it's more balanced now. As a result, we may see more lakes, rivers, and some seasides, perhaps.

Edelweiss.4261 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Maybe we are going subterranean to say hello to Primordeus. I kind of want a coastal, above-water expansion. Give me Innsmouth! Give me paranoia! Give me a boat! Why go under when you can learn how to tie a sailor's knot and walk the plank? =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might aswell say the exosuit mount set indicates an asura centric expansion. Centric is already introduced and player already playing years for those visuals: farm land, Snowy Mountains, Charr badland, techno labs, etc... An expansion are and should always give us whole new things to look at, Jungle for HoT and Desert or PoF, with Cantha it's great opportunity to introduce great new visuals, Eastern/Oriental inspired athetics.

Jimbru.6014 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Both. The Jade Sea thawing out has raised sea levels and Cantha is now underwater. Deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybarf Tics.2048 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 If we were top go to Cantha, it'wouldn't be all water. That would be like playing Russian roulette. It would have water yes, besides we have to cross the ocean to get there. It would also be because we are going there to face the sea dragon also to face whatever other situation is facing Cantha at that time, example a bad Emperor. As for water content, they are going in the wright direction, by the time the expansion comes out it might all have been fixed by then. Consider this we got swim infusion ahead of time, which is the right thing to do, if you consider fixing the whole issue in time for an expansion. Also consider this they didn't make swim infusions to shut up the few. You can expect the whole underwater combat to be fully realized at some point.B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kas.3509 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Honestly ? If it is indeed underwater I'll wait month or two before buying and read people opinions if it's fun at all. I am super sceptic about underwater combat, as my profession specializations are not really viable there and placing aoes in water is not fun.

All profession could have an underwater Elite Specialization if we getting an underwater heavy extension. and it wont be all underwater for sure, maybe 3 land maps and 2 water maps?

Then it will feel like forcing people into specialization, as everything else is not really playable underwater. Not too good choice imo. They'd need to rework all skills to work fun and different underwater overall. Specially aoes like wells etc. I wouldnt like to be forced to play 1 elite spec through whole expansion or most of it. I don't like the idea because I really despise water combat right now. But I'll give it a try if they do it , because I enjoyed most of the work devs did up to this time so maybe they'll make it good this time too.

Palador.2170 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I voted "Both", but... Ever play Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker? Yeah, that but for Cantha instead of Hyrule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teratus.2859 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 The underwater overhaul has been long overdue and still needs improving. The biggest problems we have with underwater now is build diversity and mobility. This can easily be fixed by adding an underwater mount and more usable underwater weapons such as Sword, Dagger etc, making more utility skills usable underwater will also help this problem. As for story points the Jade Sea is imo one of the best locations known about for a final showdown with the sea dragon. I for one would absolutely love to have a massive open world dragon battle at this location with the dragon swapping between land and underwater combat phases..

An expansion are and should always give us whole new things to look at, Jungle for HoT and Desert or PoF, with Cantha it's great opportunity to introduce great new visuals, Eastern/Oriental inspired athetics. You clearly misunderstood what I meant with "centric". HoT was very centric/focused on sylvari lore, compared to the other races. PoF was that, but for humans. Its about what race gets to play a bigger role, not the enviroment. Cantha can only really have humans at the center, the same that PoF had, which is why I think we need to go somewhere else first. Charr homelands would be just as new as HoT and PoF has been, same for Far Shiverpeaks. Yes we already have some snowy areas, but we also already had jungle areas, before HoT. Didn't expect to have to clarify it after almost a year xD I loved Factions btw, I would loooooove to go back to Cantha. I just think something else need to happen first.

Gehenna.3625 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Although I'd like for it to be Cantha on the one hand, I feel the map is already too big and it's becoming unwieldly. Underwater areas are an idea but for a new expansion I think it's not something that makes sense. So I'm voting for something else that fills up the current map a bit more. I wouldn't mind if the HoM was back on the actual map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apolo.5942 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 For god's sake, not an entire under water expansion, i wish they would remove under water combat all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
