As for current and future updates, there is a viral campaign for White Mantle/Shining Blade conflict, a new warcamp was added to Talmark Wilderness, there is a new scavenger hunt with Lt. Thackeray, and there is probably something in store for the 5th anniversary coming soon. Patience.

Last year the one largest update was the 4th anniversary one. It is likely that this year it will be the same - largest update of the year. There's a War in Kryta coming and all the hype and marketing efforts are greater than before any update ever, including Sorrows Furnace, although I don't expect anything anywhere that great.

we're not getting any new location - at least not as big as a completely new arena, mission, pvp format, or so. it's confirmed.
Black Metal
yeah how are those quarterly updates coming........eh.....that we've gotten one in a year? Would love to see that addressed.
But let's not get our non-hopes not up: Regina has been quick to tamper down any enthusiasm with the 5th year coming up by repeatedly reminding us there won't be much at all, and that the Live team can't handle much beyond the viral campaign and some in-game dialog.

They gave up on the quarterly content updates and are apparently giving up on skill balances.

That's what I think they should be working on 48 (6 x 8 Players Teams) in a Non-HA Setting with no linked title and random teams. This would prevent Rank Discrimination, Provide extra PvP Content (which we need more of) and would provide PvE players a place to experience larger scale matches which they never really experience.
Could also involve some sort of ladder system which rank's players based on Account Names in terms of Kills, Deaths, Amount Healed, etc.

Secondly, if it really isn't such an amazing content update then all they'd need to do is release some redundant yet "new" GW2 info to generate hype for their neglected, jobless/homeless teenager that is GW1.
Ariovist Lynxkind
Oh I have come not to expect much from the content updates not because of failed promises but more so the size of the Live Team and the mechanics of the game. I was presently surprised with the menagerie and stuff from last year, but really if they could add the stuff we really want onto the game they wouldn't have to make a whole new one. I think the problem is not so much the quality of the content updates we do get but rather the too high expectations from people who know they are working with limited resources.
