UE5 Map - What should the Expanded Area Look Like?

Congratulations for moving to UE5. A bold and great move by Intrepid. First - what is the new expanded size - roughly? So what are your thoughts?

My opinion is to perhaps reserve some of the new size for expansions - Tulnar and reserve some land for expansion islands and sea faring as it were. One would anticipate underground takes some of the expansion size? However, I think it wise to keep the same map and add the component of distance to add to the feel of travel. Opening this up to the community. Best Regards, Skaff. :)

    Good topic, @skafftaruss. The consummate explorer in me is always fascinated by areas that are just out of reach. So, I like the idea that we need to build up (by skill, material, gear, etc) to actually get into a new area.

    I’m a huge Jordan fan, so if you look at what it would take to explore the Aiel Waste or The Blight. Let alone Se’anchan. It take resources and time and planning to get a chance to see those areas.

    It would be awesome to see concerted efforts on the part of a node community working toward exploring those areas - which may not even be DLC gated, but gated by those nodes that can muster enough teamwork and chutzpah to get over the mountain peaks, survive, and plant the flag first.

    Potential abounds!

    Can you elaborate on that further? Less Boomhauer, though.

    Really good and constructive discussing happening here. I value the wide range of opinions and thoughts.

    Seriously though, the move to UE5 is so awesome and exciting. I'm just as hyped as you are! It should make the development process much smoother, allowing them to more easily accomplish what Steven and everyone at Intrepid have set out to!

    Man I'm getting old.

    Yeah I'm really excited about UE5. The game would have been great on UE4 just as well, but I was worried it'd be a step behind other games.
