As you might recall, Mythic took its scenario re-structuring plans for Warhammer Online's update 1.3.4 back to the whiteboard after feedback from the community indicated it needed a little more planning. This week, Mythic's Community Coordinator Andy Belford posted a revised plan that seems to be a step up from the previously planned streamlining of scenarios, offering a bit more variety to the active scenarios for each tier. One of the biggest concern for the devs is ensuring critical mass for the set of scenarios available to avoid making players have to wait long periods of time to find one.

We understand the desire for as much variety as possible, however we had to temper that with ensuring the most active Scenario environment possible for everyone. We went back and took a long hard look at the previous list and took to heart the feedback on what Scenarios you did and did not want. We saw the large outcry against the inclusion of Phoenix Gate, Mourkain Temple and Gates of Ekrund at the higher level tiers and the exclusion of some favorites such as Reikland Factory, Caledor Woods and Serpent’s Passage. While we still feel that some of these Scenarios are perfect for the lower Tiers, i.e.; Mourkain and Tor Anroc, we agreed that the mechanic and map layout doesn't necessarily lend themselves to the higher Tiers where it’s a completely different environment. As such, you will see a greater variety between the lower tiers and Tier 4.
