Two New MMOG Expansions Released

Posted by Zonk on from the we've-been-thinking-of-putting-in-a-pool dept.

Yesterday saw the launch of two new expansions for a pair of well-established Massive games. The titles are Thrones of Oblivion, the newest expansion for Player vs. Player game Shadowbane, and Catacombs, the newest expansion for Dark Age of Camelot. Thrones of Oblivion adds some interesting high end content, graphical enhancements, and the ability to play a Vampire as a character. Catacombs is an impressive (and much anticipated) enhancement to the Dark Age of Camelot graphics engine, and adds massive underground areas beneath the three Realms.

  1. Final Fantasy XI also announces expansion... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 3, Informative

    And in other news, Final Fantasy XI announced an expansion in their service. Apparently, in the coming months, they intend to actually enforce their user agreement instead of just ignoring people selling items and in-game currency for money.

    This comes as a surprise, considering the game is over a year old in the United States and is coming up on the third anniversary of its original Japanese launch in a few months.

    Evidently, in Japan, only companies losing customers listen to complaints.

    Vendetta Online was updated once more just minutes ago.

    First update introduced Asteroid Mining on the 15th of November.
    Second update introduced a Galactic News system and NPC traders, on the 22nd of November
    Today's update adds a Bounty system for glorifying a bit those pesky pirates and letting players become bounty hunters, plus a number of tweaks on ships and weapons. And special goodies for the few players who managed to fufill all 120 prospecting missions.
