They certainly will reveal some parts of the map. They might use the existing areas to indroduce us to the new content and hopefully more enemies.

So imagine, you already paid for the smallest MMO ever created, and you get nothing new.
Do you seriously think you'll get anything in the future for free?...
Trion needs money, and a lot of it if they want to keep this game alive.
And so far they are getting nothing out of their micro store where you can find most of the outfits in game already as rewards doing missions, co-op maps and pursuits, what is left for them to make money out of it?
Lock boxes? no, if you want to see companies making millions in cash with lockboxes, go take a look at games like STO, or SWTOR, or Neverwinter, the content of those boxes is worth the price : Huge ships, exclusive purple rare mounts and zillions of other goodies you cannot find in game.
So what is left for the Defiance store...? Boosters.
Anyone here is buying tons of boosters?... anyone?
Not at all, because there is no reason in this game to buy any boosters.
Then basically, as we speak, with no monthly fees, Trion is running a 100% free game with almost no income from it.
What i say is, bring the big fireworks!
Release tons of content that we have to pay for, and if it's big enough, and truly worthy and amazing?
Don't worry, we'll pay for it, me the 1st.
Then the game will become huge and fun again.
And for those who are always crying to get everything for free?
Play single console games and stop playing MMOs.

If you want new content then what's the problem with paying for it??
Personally, I like this DLC method, it's very similar to the LotRO style - access the new areas, look around, kill stuff, but restrict missions and rewards. It does cost to keep the servers up, and to produce the new content, so, if you're just a casual player, you can enjoy a fair amount of the features. If you're a dedicated player, you're free to purchase more should you choose to.Quote:

Simple basic features and that's it. The real game was only open to subscribers and... The whole Monster Play was closed 100% to non-subscribers as about 3/4 of all what the game was.
Same now in all MMOs, if you want everything for free, you get almost nothing.
Don't be afraid of the words Iron, it's like that, everything cost something.
You pay for what you love? Then you get what you love.
You don't? Then you won't.
There are still things in life that are 100% free...
Fresh air outside, little birdies singing, swimming in a lake, and enjoying a walk in the park.
But none of those things are related to the gaming industry.
It's a choice to make. And the same choice will also apply to Defiance.
