The slow release of certain information can be explained away, but I'm pretty convinced that right now they've only got 2 zones even remotely presentable and that these "40" classes exist only in a thought bubble hovering loosely above Oly Ponytail's head. I can certainly understand why they'd slow their roll when it comes to disseminating mechanics, but I think they'd do a little more showing and a little less telling if they were at all able.

It's clearly important to keep as much under wraps as possible, so that the element of discovery isn't completely ruined when the game releases. Really makes you wonder how much work is left tho. So much hype leading up to the Vegas event...now nearly a month later and we've still only seen two character models beating up on a handful of painfully non-intelligent mobs. Maybe the emergency AI is just shy.
I'm rather curious about water too. Not a drop of virtual water to be seen in any of these demos so far.
Also, by the way; DC Universe Online opened with a rad-as-fuck cinematic. These guys went with sand art? They're lucky that the name of their product invokes so much interest on it's own.

I put up the first draft - please comment (and yes I know it's ugly - whatever, I'm working) on any major omissions or errors. I've tried to remove any speculation and only FAQ SOE statements.

I want to know what the real and actual difference to EQN will be, if there really are going to be mobs, npcs and (lol) emergency AI plus a class system; why do I need EQN aswell?
Maybe you will, in mad adcash once the game goes live and junkiesnation hits off. And yeah, the faq looks terrible right now, you better get on top of that.
Wha? EQ Landmark has no combat, no monsters, no AI.. nothing. Resources & building, thaz it.
Why do you want it? You don't unless you want a beefed up Minecraft. I do.

I just want a new MMO, don't really care about the money with respect to the game - I just think I could do a better job of parceling out informatoin than Omeed has done so far.
/rant
I'm still pissed off over the beta situation at SOE Live. Omeed & SOE should have said flat out "you will get beta keys when beta happens" not the bullshit "you are our favorite customers and we'll take care of you" or wtf he said.
As for the FAQ, hopefully Big W will clean it up - I've got to get back to my work that actually pays me ;-)

This is what i've taken away from the bits of information SOE has revealed and the reason why I am confused right now.
I do, but please educate me, maybe I'm confused about that aswell.

EQN/L winter will have building, crafting and the adventuer class.
EQN/L 2015 will have situational combat (you can make an Arena that allows combat) and tricks, traps & triggers for dungeons/castles.
EQN/L ??? may have StoryBricks, classes and other things. Emphasis on may.

Hasn't the poor man suffered enough?!
Ok, enough shitposting for now, back to wild and bizarre speculation about a game we still know almost nothing about.
Since you seem earnest enough about it, a shill tries not to give any hint that he/she is affiliated with what he/she is shilling for.
"I put up the first draft" sure sounds like tad has an affiliation with junkiesnation.
