Breaking news about new NGD game server, Arctus realm, etc

I've got breaking news from one my good Spanish friend of his friend, a developer of NGD's Nuevo Grupo de Desarrollo team, and under some bottles of beer he shared some leak about NGD future plans.

So, the most exciting news is: NGD is serious about installing of brand new game server on ... hold your breath now, on Antarctica! Seems, like NGD moves very close behind Google (see For Data Center, Google Goes for the Cold) and Facebook (see Facebook Announces Sweden Based Data Center, Says It’s Really Cold There too) on such initiative! Sounds as a bullshit, but real reasons are trivial: virgin clear air will dramatically decrease ping through satellite broadband, plus absolutely low cost of hardware cooling (total ice around!), hardware protection (no any chance for stealing) and administrative maintenance (system admins can work remotely through SSH connection to maintain the server).

Second, rumor about new mobs: gigantic penguins and eagles.

Third: new war master's power to fly on eagle back and swim on penguin back, for example, thru central lake between realms, and on other side to throw sort of explosive big eggs to freeze enemies.

And, last (but quite sad, as for me) rumor: Alsius realm will be renamed to Arctus (as it was visible on the place of Alsius realm on the screen of NGD developer).

So, let's wait for those exciting changes and do not forget I was the one who reported about this leak first! :-)

UPDATED (2012/04/02): Well, all, of course, that news was an April 1st joke! :-P

P. S. Discussion/publishing of these news were done on different forums, on Fighters of Syrtis forum, Facebook's Regnum Online Fan Group, Twitter, Google+, SWS personal page on Facebook, and on Regnum Online forum. But I was really surprised about deletion of similar "Breaking news about new NGD game server, Arctus realm, etc" thread on Regnum Online forum by "Reason: Spreading false rumours" (BTW new "Breaking news about ... the epilog" is still exist... yet ;-) )... Strange to see so stupid NGD action because someone from there has no any sense of humor (except surak from ngd · Studios, his "Actually we are thinking about turning all Utghars into premium mounts" and "Buy your enemy and ride it" [for xims] comments were fresh and sweet)!

Also, do not forget to check Google April Fools' Day 2012 too. :-P

So, I congratulate all, who truly likes and understand jokes, with funny April Fools' Day! :-)
