A reputation and bartering system, which allows players to gain rep. for rewards with factions and the bartering system allows players to trade trophies for gear. 100 new quests UI is now more customizable Although Turbine won't talk about how many players they have, they're boosting US publisher Midway's bottom line so they can't be doing all bad.
