Vaprac told me Iggy was gonna populate the extended area at the end of teh week, that was bout 6 weeks back.

The update has the following problems, but 1st, bear in mind a 50% linear increase is 125% increase in area (i.e. addressable squares)
1/ Still TOTALLY unpopulated with warp gates, hospitals and other safe havens. I would think that as most players are now more than mere noobs - and as a noob can grow faster than the early days, about 30-50% the density would suffice. THUS, the original 10K squares had 13 Banks and 6 Warp gates. Id say 5 or 6 banks and 3 warp gates would suffice (though in the case of warp gates theres a valid argument for a full upgrade fro walkers).
2/ The critter spawn levels have not been changed, e.g. Plane walkers have a spawn of (I THINK) 6, this means 1667 squares per critter, that's is now nearly 4K squares per critter. Important(ish) critters (such as Vile Ghouls, Vamp, Vamp Lord, etc) should have the spawn level increased. OK, maybe not totally, say 50-75%. This should include ANY critter used either in a non-sub quest - or useful for drops and/or levelling.
3/ The SPECIAL ONE OFF's (many of which are important to Noobs, such as Harren) have also suddenly become WAY harder to find, and without warp gates - even if reported they may be totally out of range.
These should either be duplicated (2 of each, or even 3 of each as they will be hard to reach in the extended area) or limited to the original 100 * 100 by use of a virtual realm. The code for this is already in frequently use. Try killing the Kobold King and see where he respawns, always in the same little area. In fact, I've helped you - he was at 4,92, he should respawn within about 5 squares of that.

Bravo, sea. I needed that laugh.

well guys 'n gals - its now over 3 months since the extended Gothador was found - it has STILL not been announced and there is STILL no furniture (safe havens, warps etc)
Furthermore - Because it was done without consideration for one-off's in Goth - its now 125% harder to find things such as teh Haran chests - they should have been limited to a logical realm of 100*100- or made 2 of each.

i heard the area from 99.99 and below was going to secede from the whole of gothador
and call itself 'thisisbullshitadoria' lmao

This bigger one is so empty feeling

There's so much I could say to that, but it's all bad, so I'll say instead, "why is the rum gone?" :shock:

[FrankNStien]

Did they ever even admit to expanding Goth? Why would they worry about fixing some expanded area when they are so busy putting the final touches on 5th tier skills?

what FINAL touches - and no - they didnt ever admit so far as I know, certainly it was never announced.

yknow what? i bet this whole damn thing was an elaborate hoax
