They may be testing the waters before committing to the XP speed increase.

I'm confident those waters are quite warm and comfortable.

Like the rest of the game, what they didn't tell you was at the last minute they switched water for urine. Hence the warmth.

[Bismallah]

Well, let's say they do increase the XP for good. Then what? Level umpteen alts till they fix the end game?

lol, i was referring to game system impact, not necessarily players reactions.

I don't remember rest xp being that useful at all.  And how can the say that characters would level 10-20% faster if it depended how much rest you have.  People are bound to play at different rates and earn various amounts of rest.

Well, at the rate I'm playing I an assure you that I would be able to take full advantage of the rest experience addition.

If I was still paying.

What could they possibly expect to learn from a couple of weeks about supposed long term retention risks of a negligable increase in xp rates.

Recruit a friend
Here’s how it works:

When you become a paying subscriber to Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning, you’ll receive 3 recruitment notices to share with friends or family. For each month you continue to subscribe, you’ll receive another recruitment notice (for a maximum of 6 at any time).

2. Send a recruitment email to a friend or family member from the Account Center. This will allow your recruit to create a trial account for seven days of free play. Unused referrals expire after 30 days and will revert back to your pool of available referrals.

3. When your recruit becomes a paying subscriber to WAR, you will receive a credit for 30 days of free game time. Stay tuned for more exciting recruitment rewards in the future!

A good thing, but would you really recruit a friend at this stage? I feel bad that my friends bought copies

Pales in comparison to Blizzard's triple xp and free levels.

Where's my zebra mount???

If I tried to sell my friends on a half-assed, unpolished game with egotistical devs with their heads up their asses telling players that they aren't playing a game right, how long would they remain my friends?

I just re-looked at the rested XP boost - why boost T2? It's the best part of the whole game. In fact, they could have capped levelling at 20 so that we could understand game mechanics and get our skills, then possibly have reknown tactics kick in for another 10 levels based on SC/RvR. AKA have a learning curve, not a cockblock.

But I guess that would just be common sense and radical thinking and wouldn't hide the fact that the endgame... well, it's not shit, because shit exists, endgame doesn't.
