Anyone noticed that thing at the top of the GW:EN map? If you look at it closely you clearly see it's an explorable area..

There are lots of places they have added or new areas on the map
"IF" they wanted to have another expansion between now and GW2.
To me I think GWEN was made bigger to start with but they rushed it
to put it out and they still have left over areas they could add in later.
Thats my theory anyway.

Hes talking about a small area way up in the north shiverpeaks and all along the top of the charr lands.

These areas are more highly detailed, like an explorable area before its explored.


I for one think Anet has something up their sleaves, but I dont think this is it.

Theres a few other mysteries.

-The Hair styles in the e3 video and armor shot

-Shing Jea Sherman is a mystery to me

-I'm probably wrong about this, but what they did to the armor isn't Anet style.

Something is going on here

Probably a small expansion for GW:EN later on to keep us interested.

What I want to know its whether the bonus mission pack's missions take place in their own maps or in areas currently dulled out and unused on the maps?

i'd say they are adding more content later, new qeusts and maybe new explorable area's, so i think you'd have to wait

ANet is very likely do a few Sorrow's Furnace/DoA-style updates during the long wait for GW2 to fill in those unused areas, and give players a little something extra to do. Free, of course. Or maybe not (online store)?

I'm looking at the map they gave us with the box, that area is greyed out, like Ascalon, Crystal Desert, Kryta, Maguuma Jungle, and Ring of Fire.

If my theory is correct they aren't just gonna leave us hanging for the next year or more. we're gonna get something, maybe another expansion or a sorrow's furnace size update adding more land and/or cool features.

It's gonna be the Mursaat homeland, where you may kill them to your hearts content, unless they're like the Margos in DoA

Here are the reasons:

1) the land looks like the Fire Isles, and Mursaat used them as a base for sacrificing lives.

2) You meet the Asurans in this game, so they might have a way of teleporting you guys there.

3) Hints from the game and Anet.

4) No way they would leave a giant island like that alone if they weren't planning something.
