As it happens, we do, and you'll see the first of them in the December update.

Social Centers

As also mentioned in previous Letters, over the next few months we will focus on the towns of Holtburg, Shoushi and Yaraq. Our goal is to increase player traffic through these towns, to make them more desirable places to spend time in-game. In December we'll be making a number of improvements to these three towns. These include:

  • Making the portals into the towns more consistent and increasing the number of portals out of the towns.
  • Moving the casinos closer to the towns.
  • Adjusting the starter quests based in these towns.

In addition to the three bullet points above, there are some improvements that we can't mention here – things that players will discover over the course of the December event.
