rayhovite Wrote:200 levels is enough scope for a game. 2.1b exp is maximum for the 32-bit development. They aren't going to bother going any further or try to incorporate number tricks to expand the 32-bit barrier. Content that keeps you playing is the way to go. There's only a very small fraction of the userbase that hits 150+ anyway. Yes they provide tons of money but you would be catering to a very niche part of the community. Business-wise it wouldn't make sense. Of course there should be more stuff to do for a lvl 200, since WoW offers tons of endgame content, but this is a different MMO.
Getting 4b exp to level kinda puts a bad taste in your mouth!
You guys are missing the point. This is like telling a company to build more stories on a skyrise while majority of the available floors are barely decorated and rarely occuppied.
