We already had a few of those
Zombi_Wizzard said: I feel that Ubi is just buying more time and draging the announced update. They could atleast give us specific date.
It's possible that you missed the news, but they had some kind of set-back...so no date for now.
To this I have to apologize, as I didn't kept updated the news thread updated over the last days (nor AoH news front, for the matter).

By allowing people to vote on the CE, they might make it appealing to more people. It gets them involved in the contents, allowing them to shape the CE the way they think they want it. Heck, you could even set semi-obvious choices off against somewhat less-obvious choices, more or less making the voters think they actually got involved in configuring the final package. It binds people to it and if you're bound to it, you're more likely to invest in it. From an economical point of view, they're taking the smart approach here.

Some inspiration from SWTOR:
Imagine Dungeon town screen with similar atmosphere, maybe just a little bit less green, but more pale blue and violet.

Thanks but if I would have zombie and plague in town, I would play Necropolis, not Dungeon.

I don't know. The whole setting with those Rakghouls ... I mean, Rakghouls are pretty much undead anyway . The funny thing is that the caves in the pictures didn't exist in the very first Rakghoul incursion (on Tatooine) and on their originating planet - Taris - the green color was of a different hue (more sickly yellow-green).
How did green end up getting associated with death and decay anyway?

Well necrosis and rot like gangrene often create green puss or green coloration of the skin, and since these would often lead to death in the times before modern medicine it might have caused the relation.

Deadly chemicals are usually depicted bright green in movies and popculture, so there you have it.

But these are not original zombies but "evolved" ones, created but mad scientist and sent throughout galaxy to infect other worlds (read: five planets).
Of course Republic was eager to blame Imperium for this plague too.

You forgt that we have already city in the dark - Sylvan. So Dungeon should be city in the light. Lens flares!

I wanted to show you the idea - an example of good aesthetic. No backstory. No Empire. No Force. Just forget about Star Wars and look at the pictures once again.
Quote: You forgt that we have already city in the dark - Sylvan. So Dungeon should be city in the light. Lens flares!
Nay, so far H7 seems to keep a perfect balance in townscreens' atmosphere. 3x Night, 3x Day.
I assume that we'll get:
Day: Haven (confirmed), Academy (confirmed) and Stronghold.
Night: Sylvan (confirmed), Dungeon and Necropolis.
BTW:
Quote: Of course Republic was eager to blame Imperium for this plague too.
That's why my Bounty Hunter serves no one .
