Here's an interesting quote:

While Mark was showing me out he also pointed out a wicked new trailer that is coming out shortly that is going to knock your socks off guys, he then went on to say that even though Empire is technically finished it isn't finished yet as CA are currently working on new downloadable content for the future that will bring even more depth to the game woo hoo!!

Downloadable content? I wonder if it will be free or not.

EDIT: Ships can take ports. Fisherking will be pleased.

First a day one patch, now DLC? I'm starting to think CA is crazy! They are setting up some crazy expectations. Its becoming harder as the hours tick away to remain objective. And lest us not forget the promised MP campaign! Release day will be a crucible for my expectations... I do hope they survive.

Hang on guys. I gotta get some popcorn.

Maybe they're gonna make Portugal playable (yeah right...) ...or the sharks lol.

Ok seriously...hmm maybe battles and stuff...dunno.

The addition of South America would be nice.

I don't want to get ahead of ourselves, but possible DLC - Expanding on the Trade theatres and filling them with provinces?

Maybe this deserves its own thread: Theories on DLC possibilities?

I don't quite understand the need for South America. The vast majority of it was dominated by Spain and Portugal, and covered in jungle. There are no more native groups in South America to speak of, and Spain and Portugal were both not fighting.

Africa would be a much better choice.
