I think 3.0 may be sooner, and larger than we can imagine. So much to speculate

I saw it. Love this stuff!
The upper left picture looks like the ridge in Exiled Lands, near Desertwatch and Stormwatch, don’t you agree?
That was my first thought, but no. It’s a spot in the mounds. I’ve already found all these locations, just trying to find out what they mean

Have you marked them all on the map to see if they are triangulation points?

Not yet, no. Moreso trying to find out what the meaning behind them all is. Something has to connect them all together

I just gave that a rough attempt, with a couple of possible results -
taking Jimbo’s suggested locations - the Mounds, Flotsam and Summoning Place or Hand of the Maker - they seem to centre roughly around Mek-Kamoses’ Spire. Alternatively, if my thought that the final spot is in the UC (by the Green Dragon), then the approximate centre shifts to Chaosmouth. Either option seems fairly suggestive. And, while I’ve only roughly laid out and then selected the most relevant landmark rather than proper triangulation, it does at least suggest there could be something to the idea that these points may define another location in some way

Well there ain’t no dungeon there, and there really oughtta be. If we wanted to learn sorcery these might be the people I’d call, but then again I’m a fan of the graphic novels.

I believe they are talking about things like the different foods as well. There are many elements of the game, and survival seems to be abandoned for RP and building.
Are we finally going to see the Mummy of the Ring then?

And my comment is perfectly aimed and accurate. Now if they want a much more in depth food/cooking option where higher tier food keeps you sated longer, that’s something else and should have it’s own thread (and how to balance it versus PvP, because food types got nerfed due to PvP healing).
Really, now that any damage stops sated healing, they could put in a 30s to 30m to 4h timer of various food.
Did you guys see this video?
If you pause it during the lightening you can clearly see that this “totem” (I assume it is) stands on a beach. So I’m assuming it’s on Siptah. One person on Twitter suggested that it might be an Obelisk tot travel to and from the Exiled Lands. Maybe the Mounds? That would be cool.

They have been active on Twitter. Surprised I haven’t seen more discussion of it on here.
One part that seems interesting to me is that there is a thunderstorm with rain in an area that seems like Siptah.
Siptah has no weather other than the Maelstrom.
In addition, a few people used certain tools to pull up new furniture and a Skelos armour set (medium, survival bonus if memory serves, much more developed than that current sack robes in game) in the Testlive version.
The discussion is happening over here.

Thank you, I’m a derp.
Ah, thanks Tephra!
Weird that there was no text or note on twitter with this new clip. It makes me feel unsatisfied.

My dogs are hungry… hungry for updates!
There are mods that expand the North East region of the exiled lands map beautifully, so I do not understand why the answer is no on a map expansion. I have used Darkwoods, and it is excellent. As a long-time PVE player, I would LOVE to explore that area and build there officially.
I watched the Funcom Developer Interview and Matt Flemming clearly stated that he wanted to hear our suggestions…map expansion has my vote

I would love to see the map open up after all these years

Part of the reason is there are dungeons in that area and you would see large black boxes in the sky which would look ridiculous.
Like Darth Mention, Dungeons are up there. You can explore abit from Pirates bay and few spots.
But I would also throw on table, More Content = More to load.
On ps4 with out an SSD, It takes several mins for game to start up. =/ And those after dungeons loads can be nasty. (since your still not immune to damage staring at load screen…)
With SSD, even then, Its a game that still takes abit to load some content.
