the rumor of the worlds largest city

[calimedic911]

Hello,

Is there any word of the rumor regarding AEG's worlds largest city? Was that just a cruel joke by aeg to those of us who love things like that?

Well Jim Pinto (AEG's Art Director - I think?) confirmed that the WLC is a real project when he posted the following in the WLD spoiler thread in response to this very question a short time ago:

i love rumors that start with my mom's gardner's neighbor knows a guy who...

fyi... i wrote the advertisement

i commissioned the art

i placed the text on the page

i may have been involved at some level, but i'm not sure...

The above was followed up with this:

it'll be a generic city, usable by all levels of gamers.

and that's all i can say about it

When I asked about this at Gencon SoCal the answer I got was underwhelming.

And that answer was... ?

And that answer was... ?

...underwhelming.

Don't think I'm afraid to track you down and brain you with a trout, wise-acre.

I apoligize for that. Just too tempting and I'm tired so rational thinking is out the window.

Oh, and if you hunt me down, mind bringing that Hamunaptra box set in addition to the trout? I mean, it is the Christmas season and all...

Sure, no problem.

(Just wait until he finds out I'm braining him with Hamunaptra, and leaving the trout on his bookcase... )

Back on Topic

Will the WLC be based on the Bos-Wash corridor, or the metropolitan LA area? The Shanghai area of China mayhaps?
