    Here are today's Neverwinter Nights forum highlights, collected by NWVault. Please take into account that these are only single parts of various threads and should not be taken out of context. Bear in mind also that the posts presented here are copied as-is, and that any bad spelling and grammar does not get corrected on our end.

    Premium Modules on CD to buy?
    Contractually, Atari is the one who has the rights to physical distribution of these premium modules (i.e. putting them on CD). The decision of whether or not to do so is in their hands. Personally, I don't think it makes a lot of economic sense for them to do so (physical distribution is very expensive and they'd be competing for shelf space with the latest and greatest new titles). That said, we are hoping to increase the number of payment methods available through our online store in the near future as we understand the desire for some sort of PayPal-like payment method. In the meantime, we do accept certain types of debit cards, provided they're Visa- or MasterCard-sponsored. Hopefully one of those solutions will meet your needs.

    Witch's Wake... boring
    Basically, the Witch's Wake series is a known element within the community and one that we're able to talk about without undermining the efforts of our marketing team. For the record, Witch's Wake 2 is in the schedule but it won't be the next one we announce. We made this decision because we felt we could complete the upcoming premium module in a shorter time than we could for WW2 and WW2 was also still waiting for some impressive art content that we've contracted from the community. It'll be worth the wait, I assure you. Wishing I could say more

    Future premium modules schedule?
    Given the short playtime of these modules (as compared to the official campaigns), we generally only turn on the hype machine as we're nearing release. As Keith and I are the only designers on the Live Team right now, we're limited to one project at a time. While Witch's Wake 2 is in the schedule, it's not what we're working on currently. We need more design manpower than just Keith and I if we intend to keep the hype machine active on a more permanent basis. We're exploring external options (some of you may have heard Stefan Gagne's announcement that he's making a premium module, for instance) and are also hoping to be able to expand the internal team once Jade Empire is released. That's a macro-level staffing issue, however, and ultimately the purvey of Ray & Greg, our joint CEOs. In short, work on future premium modules is ongoing and Keith and I are having a lot of fun with this next one. As our projected release draws nearer, we'll turn on the hype machine and start letting you in on the details of what's upcoming. Hang in there,

    Craig Welburn, Live Team Programmer
