Post-Velious: more faces for old models?

I know the graphics are, but are you certain the code itself enforces client only? It would've been more scalable if they'd done something like:

* client passes input (i.e. race) to server
* server responds with either total count of faces or a full list of images corresponding to files in client folder
* client cycles through results accordingly

Then again, I'm sure quite a bit of EQ code is neither scalable nor sensical.

I'm also fairly sure they do not plan to do anything post-Velious

Where was this officially stated? I've seen posts where it was stated that they would "evaluate" what direction, if anywhere, to take things after Velious. I certainly didn't get the impression that everything was on lockdown after Velious and no ideas could be entertained.
