Revelation, aka 3.0, to Launch December 10th
ArcheAge News - ArcheAge Senior Producer Merv "Khrolan" Lee Kwai has published the latest letter on the official site. Starting off with a bang, Kwai announces that ArcheAge 3.0 or "Revelation" will be launching on December 10, 2016. Revelation brings Dwarf and Warborn races on board, their homelands, the Community Center system, Abyssal Skills, and Fresh Start servers.

One question stands: Will this update bring back some of the player base? I really believe this game will see some increase in population on the new server, but will it remain Pay 2 Win? I'd love to return to this game. Some of my friends are still playing without even spending a dime on it, yet they still remain competitive.
@BillMurphy ;
Are you leaning more towards dwarves? It will be fun to see some flashy hobbit skills! :awesome:
This bait and switch crap is getting old, if you support this company then you support screwing over your own player-base minus the whales who just don't care.
They will lure you back with fresh servers and a few months down the road claim that they need to put back in the terrible cash shop because of "player demand" and then merge the AH's because of "population issues". It's all just deception to slyly pull dollars out of your wallet so beware.
Seriously the "Can't claim new plot without fully building existing one" got my attention. That's what the original game should have been like. I hated the fact I had to rush in order to be able to claim land just as much as those that claimed whole swathes of it pretty much straight away.
This means I can play at a relaxed pace knowing land will be available when I get that far..
Oh and yes Bill, Dwarves > all 100% - I love me a stunty !!
The reason they revert the shop once the server reached advanced stages is because the shop benefits are miniscule once the economy is set. No one can credit card warrior only and compete with organized player nations that run content. The sheer amount of gold you get from controlling DGS is insane. Swipers are only relevant during the first 2 months of a server. If Trion is limiting the swipers ability to swipe during the first 2 months, then the game has pretty much lost all aspects of P2W.
Also, there is no pve to pvp in this game. The game is just a game. PVP finds you when you are trying to play the game. For example, when you are trying to run packs for charcoal Stabs.. or when you are trying to get your CR quests done and the gank bus makes its stop in Ynny during the CR. Outside the gild quests at the start, i never do a single quest in AA for exp. All my leveling comes form burning labor and just.. PLAYING the game. Its a sandbox that allows themeparkers to level that way if they so choose. No one is forcing you to quest or do non-end game pve. The only problem is that you have been trained since WOW for a decade that that is the only thing you can do. You see an exclamation over an NPC and your tiny ant brain makes you click on it. Why, I have no clue.. but thats just the truth sadly enough.
