 Posted: Fri Nov 07, 2003 3:04 pm Post subject: New expansion?!? |
|
|
Quoted from PlanetEQ:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to an Anonymous source within SoE, I have an Unconfirmed report that the Name of Expansion 7 is Dawn of Xonyouahuo.
This may be the name of the Mystery 6th Continent of Norrath to the west of the Abysmal sea, seen on the globe in Skyfire and the Atlas in the Plane of time. This continent is roughly three times the size of Antonica, with an archipelago of islands leading to a huge land mass.
Other Details of the Expansion are yet to be confirmed.
The distinctly oriental Name could possibly allude to an Asian Humanoid playable character race, (as the humans portrayed the European populace, the Elves portrayed the British, the Barbarians portryed the Nordics, or the Erudites Portrayed the Africans?) Or perhaps other Oriental Links in the new expansion? Only time, and a proper Press release will tell. You heard it here first, guys!

I can only hope that is a cruel joke by someone.
PS: Want to buy a pronunciation.

The name is an anagram for "Hoax on Youu."
Take from that what you will.

It would be cool to have another expansion. I can't wait to spend more money preordering just so I can't get another bag. (SCREWED)
A new class would be cool too. Maybe something that has a good non-spell based taunt would be nice.
And of course, new gear like: Epic v2.0 with a useful clicky, and a 100AC shaman wearable tunic with 30 Sta/Wis with unlimited charges of insta-cast Elnerick's Amazing Scarcasm.

Ha ha ha, I hear you Jorlana and felt the same way when they came out with the last increase in levels.
British eh? I always thought us naked high elf males looked a little greek/roman to me. Well, when I rp, I tend to rp an elf with a little too much starch in his robe. I guess I could segway into british without too much trouble.
Forsooth! |

i dont look like an elf.
if you speak to one of the NPCs in Nedaria's Landing, he talks about the need to build a big boat (because Caillav expects it of them) to sail across the sea. I wondered when I heard this if it was laying the way for a new expansion....

It's really obvious that Nedaria's Landing leads the way to a new expansion but I'm not buying this Hoax on you crap. I'll be patient and wait for real news from sony.
I don't think the different races were designed to represent specific real life groups. |

Yeah, I was wondering about that ship. Pretty nice one, though. They changed the Erud's Crossing shipwreck to the same model, as well. |
