Weapon Skills Update for February 2012 - Link
We have spent time going through all the feedback from our original proposal, and the follow up proposals presenting option 1, option 2, and option 3. Based on player feedback we feel that a system closer to option 1 would be best for the game. We realize there is not a general consensus on this, and that some players still have concerns and we will be trying to gather feedback on option 1 and addressing issues as much as design and tech allow.

May Patch Info: Contracts - Link
Severlin provides information on one of the all new game features being introduced in the May Patch. This is a system that bears similarities to both the rumor system and the facility hub. Contracts (purchasable from Contract Brokers) will allow you to keep track of new quests based on timer, progression in kill tasks, acquisition of items, location of NPC and objective and other possible mechanics. It is mainly focused on the 50-100 area currently but it is intended to cover all quests in the game eventually.
