It's hilarious, all the improvements folks are slavering for that will never happen. Not as long as this game is held back by the PC market anyway.

Wha? Held back by PC? Totally backwards, you say? Not at all. Remember that SE wants to cast as wide a net as possible to keep as wide a playerbase as possible. That means keeping the game playable on older PCs - even ones less powerful than PS3. If they improve the game in the way folks in this thread are suggesting, they'll lose a lot of players. Not everyone can afford to upgrade their PC every year, or even every ten years. Making this game bleeding edge was one of the critical mistakes they made with the 1.0 release. They're certainly going to play it a lot more conservatively from this point on.

There will not be seamless zones. There will not be hosts of new UI features added. There will not be notable improvements of any kind - at least, not any that were "held back" by PS3. Just more of the same. That is my prediction.

Removing support for PS3 happened for one reason, and one reason only: It was determined that the costs for developing for the platform were less than the income flowing in from the PS3 players. That is all. Sorry to burst your bubble, folks, but what we have is the framework that the game will continue to be developed under until the day they close down the servers for good - and not because of PS4, but because of older PCs.

But, hey - dream on, you starry-eyed dreamers!
