Tideborn Area-Ground shots

After seeing all the pics out there of the new areas, I noticed that all of them were from the air (for obvious reasons really). So, while I was checking it out from afar, I turned my wings off, and went in to take pics from the view that people are going to see first when the Tideborn are actually released. I'll post some of the more interesting shots here in the next few posts. Enjoy!

To start off, this is the cliffs outside the area.

Here's a shot of the mushroom forest. Bit different from underneath, them.

Another shot of the mushrooms, with one of the carts laying around the area.

Who knew there was a shipwreck on the beach?

    The crystal tower thing, from a bit of a distance...

    And from close up.

    Now that is one mean looking rock arch.

    The game wouldn't let me get too close to this without glitching, but the camera controls let me get a good shot anyway.

    Floating tree. What more do I have to say?

    20090927125748.png
    Ominous! Can someone say "Tideborn FB19"?

    20090927125813.png
    The first room.

    Underwater FB? Never thought I'd see that. (Yes, this is underwater)

    Boss room maybe? No matter what it is, it looks awesome.

    20090927130119.png
    Another important looking room. Can't wait to see this in action.

    20090927130407.png
    No idea WHAT this thing is, but does it matter right now? Plus, there's a nice little stair like thing on the other side that let's you climb it.

    20090927130550.png
    One of the views from the top. Plus, just in case you doubted my wingless state, here's the proof that I'm hoofing this one.

    Top of the coral rocks. Took awhile to jump up there, but I got it.

    20090927130848.png
    Ok, quick question: Why has nobody posted a pic of this before? Really now, did you see it, or just want to keep it too yourself? Taken from the top of the coral (same place I was in the last one).

    20090927131455.png
    A shot of the tree from the ground.

    In front of the waterfall. Couldn't get all of it from here though. Guess there's some things you need to be airborn for.

    Just a random building in the river. God I'm such a tourist.

    20090927132148.png
    Yet another thing I couldn't get close to without my comp going on the fritz. Oh well. I'll probably check it out with my wings later.

    20090927132455.png
    Are they pieces of a broken bridge? Are they figureheads? Or are they just decorative? Found on top of the bay leading to the island where the city is.

    20090927132608.png
    Found this baby outside the city. Just another mystery of the Tideborn I guess.

    A shot of one of those energy tower things, with the city walls in the background. Love the sky color getting darker around here. It tells you that this thing is probably not a good thing.

    20090927132924.png
    The city gate. Quite a thing to see, isn't it?

    20090927133008.png
    A few buildings in the city. They even have street signs.

    20090927133050.png
    The aquarium! You can kinda tell from this that the floors aren't 100% finished yet (I got stuck in a rock after falling off the cliff by walking through the walls). But hey, it's still really cool (Yes, there are fish in there, you just can't see them because of the angle).


    After seeing this, all I can say is that this area owns everything else I've seen in game. GO DEV'S! You guys are doing a great job with this, and I can't wait till it goes live this winter.

    There's a way to get past the invisible wall in front of the area, located south of Dreamweaver Port. I can't really say what it is here, since the GM's probably wouldn't like that too much, but if you look at other threads for pics of the new area, you should be able to find it.

    I just used this method without my flying, and swam up to the island. To be fair, I was already close, since I was looking at it from a distance when the proper conditions came about.

    When you find the method, I wholeheartedly recommend checking it out (or even if you don't find it. Still nice from a distance), it's great, and there's lots of stuff not seen in any of the pics (mine and others, mine mostly because I didn't want to flood this thread, and others for whatever reason they have).

    I want to see the new mobs lol. There have been some new pet eggs selections on the auction, so I wonder if those are the mobs?

    ex. Winged Wolfkin, Aurum Mechrab, etc. (I could be mistaken and these be non-existant creatures and the options always been there, But then again, they might be new too. idk)

    I should add, the underwater cave thing is definitely not an FB, for the obvious reason that FBs are instances which you have to load separately from the world map.

    Though, there's very good odds that it's the entrance to the FB, or maybe a SP-esque place.
