New Quest Hub on 1.18?

Well i know this may not be a very fond update, but i've re-read Producer Letter #IX that says...

1.18 is going to be relatively bigger than previous patches. This means that balancing is going to take more time than usual, and so we’re anticipating a somewhat longer period between patches. Even if we break off some of the content and release it ahead of time in a 1.17b patch (which me might!), 1.18 will still go live sometime in mid-June at the earliest. Sorry for that.

But good things come to those who wait! Dungeons designed for ranks 30 and 50 are on their way, and 1.18 will see the start of our reworking of the battle system, as we bring in some changes to that area.

Also, we’re planning to introduce various new encampments that will serve as quest hubs. We’re in the process of testing these now on our development servers, and I strong-armed one of the designers in charge into handing over some screenshots for me to post here.

So................... what happen to that plan? =\

I was under the impression those where still being implemented in 1.18

Nothing has changed, they're still coming in 1.18.

Yeah I don't see them NOT putting in quest hubs. If things had changed then I'm sure it would be mentioned before release. But being this close to that day I doubt it will be left out.

Yep, I believe you're right. Actually, I won't be surprised if we get a topics post about quest hubs before the patch goes live. Depends on how much the dev team has to say about them, I guess.

i see... :3 thanks you guys .

I'm a little concerned that these won't be part of 1.18 :\ There hasn't been mention of them in many weeks
