Originally posted by arieste I believe it was said the races they are planning to add next are products of genetic engineering and/or crossbreeding between existing species - which i assume means humans, foreans and brann.
Which I think is silly. Why create new races when you've got the Foreans and Brann sitting right there? Not to mention I bet these 'half-breeds' (couldn't resist) aren't going to have anything particularly special to them. Maybe some strange benefits/weaknesses.
Actually I wasn't thinking of true spy per se, but more of opening up different factions.
For example what happens to those humans for one reason or another abandon AFS? It's possible that they would form a mecenary company, and if Bane is losing the battle at certain fronts, I don't see why they wouldn't utilize them.
As for the Bane, since some of their forces are engineered from humans/foreans, etc., they can say through certain quests, some of their past memories start flooding back, allowing them a choice to break away from the Bane.
As for the feasibility from coding perspective, I have no idea how hard or easy it is as long as they have concepts of factions+reps in place, which I know they don't. I'm just throwing out ideas.

I think in terms of new races, we could also have a race we have never seen before. I mean there are portals that could open and close at any time.
Would be a nice unlockable to go through a quest series and unlock a new race at the end, which had come through some sort of portal.
Remember Frogloks how they had to be unlocked through the whole server woking together in EQ2?
Yea Race diversification is my number one hope for right now. Along with new planets, but thats a given.
