There will be new main content to rank up?

Agreed... let's hope quest hubs are up to snuff

Also keeping in mind, for us that kept playing since launch, we are always gonna be ahead of the curve, ahead of the content and inevitably get bored faster

If that was the case, that would be exciting. The hamlet defense system was apart of the old teams plan for early 2011. While it, or a similar system might be in the works there has been little word about anything large scale PvE that has been talked about... I think that question was brought up in one of the recent interviews, and the answer is that they can't talk about it just yet, but hopefully we'll hear something soon.

The waiting game continues...

This is one of the reasons I've mostly halted my play, and what little time I spend is spent on evening out the spread of my levels.

Same, hell I might reroll/make an alt for PS3 release if the game changes drastically between then and now (which I somewhat expect).

Thats what im saying. Thats why i said i would like to get "regular" SP-Camps, where you are able to pull the mobs, instead of Roaming. Well, since the Mainfocus wont be Leves anymore, SE have to replace it with something.

I'm sure they will at some point or there will be nobody left in the game. lol You can't just take away the main focus of the game and not replace it. The real questions are 'how quickly will they replace it?' and 'how good of a replacement is it?'

If it takes 'til 1.19 to get a decent replacement, I have a bad feeling about the future of the game given the time between the last decent patch and 1.18. Sad but true.
