It will be around 8-12 months is my guess before the next biome drops so I'd go ahead and do whatever you want.

Atleast 3 that i'm aware, that been the sea, firelands and deep north.
And after that the game was going to release, but this does not mean they can't make more realms or DLC or just content in general.

Assuming the road-map doesn't change. Again.

8-12 months between new areas? Guess I might as well try a new server now and just not explore the areas that have not been added yet (so no need to restart again)

Only reason we are restarting the server is cause someone explored the whole map, so no chance of any of the new stuff spawning.

There's little reason to go out to Ashlands or Deep North, but there are some things like drakes in the north (AFAIK, never checked) and surtlings as well as meteorites in the south. I'd think they are going to make ocean updates compatible with existing worlds, since most players have explored them long ago already, but anything is possible with early access games.

Starting a new world is a decision only you can make. I've grown too attached to mine, both the "natural" world and environment as well as my own constructions, so even if I could do several things much better on a new world, I don't think I'll ever move over unless it becomes entirely incompatible with new content.

Wish there was a way to 'reset' a world without destroying player made buildings. So you can have the empty zones populate without having to fully restart

You can do that with some mods, at least partially, but I don't know which mods those are.

Just build your base on a local save and don't really explore, then you can always just hop in an out.

I'm curious, what would they update with the ocean? just more creatures? It's not like we can dive and explore underwater.
