This is good. Coffee breaks over authors, get to work! LOL.

while I like this idea - it is a very simple thing to do (change one variable), what about all the other things mention over and over and over again in these threads/posts not including the many many bugs outstanding....sounds like a bribe to me here you go boys another carrot.....
It's nice they are willing to up the count, but it doesn't help much if the quests we have aren't played. I'd rather have a fixed "New" tab and Featured system than an additional 5 quest slots.
There are several hundred borked dialogs for some reason on my third mission. I can't even figure out where to start with it due to the limitations of the dialog UI, and I'm not sure if it is fixable due to the new dialog limits which you can't view directly.
Combine that with the core design flaws in search, and it's just not worth it.
If search ever works well (and by that I mean something like intelligent matching, like 'you liked x,y,z, you will probably like this other mission', or even 'your friends liked these missions, why not try them' or SOMETHING), maybe I'll find it worth starting my missions over again (since at this point that's all I can think of)
Campaign: The Fenwick Cycle NWS-DKR9GB7KH
Wicks and Things: NW-DI4FMZRR4 : The Fenwick merchant family has lost a caravan! Can you help?
Beggar's Hollow: NW-DR6YG4J2L : Someone, or something, has stolen away many of the Fenwicks' children! Can you find out what happened to them?
Into the Fen Wood: NW-DL89DRG7B : Enter the heart of the forest. Can you discover the secret of the Fen Wood?
We talk about "The Devs" like they have a hive mind but I think we know better. Any given person has control over a small portion of an organization. So if an individual who has the ability to up the foundry slots says "Well at least I can do this while the other stuff is being worked on" it isn't their fault that they can't also record sounds AND make art assets AND fix the database issues with the search.
For an example you may be very familiar with: I -KNOW- textbooks are overpriced. I look for the ones that give the most value to assign to my students. But as much as I want to me yelling at the publishing houses isn't going to do much. So when students complain about textbook prices I can only tell them I feel their pain and I try to mitigate that as much as I can.
I know all of you are in similar situations at work and home, so we can probably imagine what Cryptic is like too.

My Kngdom for more foundry quest slots

Actually it was that thread that prompted me to bug some people to increase the limit. I expect the keys to the kingdom the instant the new patch hits
Even if I'm not close to 10 yet, 15 gives us more room. I hope we'll keep getting more with time.
thanks!
Theoretically Neverwinter should end up with as many as STO (40 apparently? Dayum)
