Topics discussed included transferring cosmetics, changes to the AEGIS system, tweaks to the story, inventory changes, combat animations, the removal of crafting, gear progression, cross-faction cabals, gold spammers, and upcoming events, such as a 2017 edition of the Whispering Tide.
The NDA for the beta should be dropping soon, and Funcom specified that while mission maps will hold no more than 10 players at a time, the social hubs are being tuned to handle up to 500 at a go.
Funcom said that a 2017 roadmap should be forthcoming: “We will be announcing some of the post launch release dates soon(tm), but it will be fairly soon. We do have some plans to be as inclusive as possible to allow as many players as possible to participate. We aren’t planning to have this event repeatable currently, but there will be different events happening regularly throughout the year.”
Another interesting tidbit concerns current owners of the game: “We do have some special bonuses planned out for everyone that owned TSW, and a few extra things for those that had the complete edition. We’ll be announcing what those bonuses are soon”
