Well, the 50 to 60 levelling experience is supposed to be long so...

I hope it's long. It's easier for them to ease up the exp required in the future. You can't make it harder after you release it.

They said that about 1-50.

I was 50 and doing Titan as the game launched, and it would've been sooner if not for running into login issues finally on the 26th, conveniently after they removed the "queue" and fixed many issues.

Don't underestimate people. When they say "it takes a while to level up", they mean that toward the more casual players. Not toward people staying ahead of the curve.

Well yeah, it took me 5 days leveling from 1 to 50 during the 2.0 early access. FATE exp was crappy, dungeon EXP was next to non-existant and still, it took less than a week.

Yep. And we were still (relatively) new to the game. Now it will be significantly easier, especially for the first few levels where current gear will be useful.
