    Big want over the past year was the ability to start at other locations on each map, considering the miles needed to be walked to get from one point to another. Today a tent was released along with the TenPoint Carbon Fusion Crossbow (with optional scope). The tent (maximum purchase of five) allows players to set up different spawn points through out the world, also allowing him/her access to all inventory items while standing at the tent.

    The game is still free to play for new users who wish just to try it on for size :)
