Exactly. Even flying in a straight line can only get you so far so fast.

We could build trebuchet points everywhere..

I don't know @ReaperOfCookies I'm kinda partial to ballista... but if we outfit the trebuchet with arcane energy infused ammo I might reconsider...

Somewhere between "massive" and "miniscule".

Too vague, I need to know this answer in square millimeters

Great question, would like to know the intention of the starting scale of the total land mass.

As for expanding land for expansions, disagree that this angle needs to be taken to keep players engaged. 

Would prefer more in-depth features, greater sophistication and polish before release of additional lands.

Nothing worse that seeing starting villages empty because players have all moved on to the new trendy expansion lands!

Not the best sense to be gained from empty land for new players.. Better to have engaging vibrant land that large numbers of players frequent.

I hope the game will be massive but if we are talking for size bigger than wow i think things may get a bit ridiculous for trade routes and such but also in that sense it could make for a very interesting way of implementing an economy in a sense to me. Since they mentioned that some areas could be rich in some minerals and so people may actually have to go out of their way and explore things on the way which could also be beneficial for some nodes such that anything you do along the way helps develop the game world as well right.

I would love a massive world to explore but at the same time i'm not looking forward to searching for my friends if they're a different race.

I'd like to see it large, but I would want room for it to grow overtime rather than unloading it all at once.

Maybe an event could happen, erupting massive volcanoes and creating another land mass

The world can start out large and end up massive. Let's be greedy.

I like the way you think

I would like the world to be spherical and a journey around the circumference would take at minimum 24hrs legit.
 I am kinda done with flat land MMOs.

That'd actually be pretty cool. Probably a lil on the difficult side but cool to do.

The trebuchet point is a means of traveling, but if you want to use ammo along with..
Not saying you're blowing yourself up but, y'know.

I know, I know! It will be THIS BIG <stretches out arms>
