Display MoreRegarding Millim, the new zone.
Quite the step up from Talaghan in any regard. The visuals are some of the best I've seen in this game so far, the music and the voicelines are nice and the quests are for the most part well designed. Definitely not the usual kill x mobs and gather y plants stuff. Some of my favorites were the reflectors you had to adjust and the bird that had to be poisoned first, before it could be caught. That being said, I don't like goats, never have and never will. In general, the escort quests - like the other with the old man - took a tad to long for my taste.
Furthermore, the jumping puzzles are a nice addition to the game. I can't yet decide wether I love or hate them, which is a good sign that they are aptly difficult.
Lastly, some critique. First off, I was stuck under trees and various other texture items constantly. I'd wager we used the unstuck button yesterday more times than in our previous CoA career combined. Moreover, locking major parts of questlines behind a boss, that has a respawn between 2-5 hours with only one channel wasn't a good idea. Some of us had to wait for a long time before we could further progress.Overall I had an enjoyable experience in Millim though and I too look forward to the additions/expansions you already mentioned.
Regarding the bridge.
In theory, I like the idea of having some kind of community event where the whole server has to work together. However, as others have already mentioned, the bridge was almost exclusively built by a few people, whereas the majority of the server did absolutely nothing - except for rushing into the zone, as soon as the bridge was ready. Very disappointing, although due to no fault of the devs.
Best thing they could have done in this regard is even if bridge is completed there is a min contribution or some sort of guards would not let you through ( one time only ). I guess that would have leaded into more people contributing altho i only readed forum and therefore this idea is just based on what i readed here.
Greetings
