In addition to new content and items we are also working on some exciting new features for DDO. Which will be most popular, the cute fluffy bunny hat or the evil dire rabbit helm? I have a bet placed on this one – I won’t say on which. You may have already seen the hat we released for President’s Day, and we have two fun, themed cosmetic helms coming in April.
#SEARING HEIGHTS DDO FULL#
We have only had time to play with this tech on a few items, but eventually you’ll see us evolve this into a full offering of cosmetic outfits and hats. We have also recently created technology to support a new kind of cosmetic item that will alter your appearance when you equip it, but will let you keep the stat benefits from the last item you had equipped. One that’s coming soon is an alignment change item which will let players re-spec their alignment on their characters. We are also working on some cool new types of game items which will offer new features and functionality to our players.

We can’t wait to share them with you later this year! These are currently in the thick of development and they are looking really great with beautiful environments and some exciting new monsters. Other content packs later in the year will involve a fiendish carnival that will visit house Phiarlan and a new Wilderness adventure area that will contain our first quest with underwater combat. The adventures start at CR7, and Sentinels will be our first adventure pack to support Epic mode for level 20 characters starting right from the day of its launch! This new adventure pack, “Sentinels” (which a few industrious players already found in our Compendium, and is now available for preview on Lamannia), is slated for April and follows a story line that involves House Deneith, Searing Heights, a new kind of undead and a nefarious band of pirates led by the infamous Captain Tew (usually seen with his beloved pet, Ratty). This year we have committed to releasing 6 content updates to the game. So without further ado, let me dive in to some of the details you’re looking for:Ĭreating new stories, places and adventures is one of the things we love to do! So it won’t be any surprise to you that releasing a steady stream of new content is one of the foundations of our plans for DDO in 2010. Some things may have to slip, but you will surely see other additions over the course of the year as well! Please bear in mind that development is not always predictable, so what we discuss today will represent our best understanding of what we will be able to accomplish this year within our current plans. I will do my best to address as many as I can here. Thanks to those of you who submitted questions as requested. I hope you all had a fun February and that you enjoyed the events and celebrations we had in DDO! A few weeks back, I had promised that after we got done and fully recovered from all our partying (as in festivities, not just grouping for quests), I would return to talk a little about what is coming up for our favorite MMO. – Bug fixes and continued efforts to launch international versions of the game. – New item types such as alignment re-adjusters and cosmetic gear that keeps the stat of previous equipped items. – 6 content releases scheduled for 2010, 1 down 5 to go. The folks over at Turbine have released a lengthy ‘State of the Game’ which goes into detail on what lies ahead for the year.įor current players, the address is well worth reading but for the rest of us here is a short list of what’s inside:
