New content is meant for "end-game" players. It won't affect the flux of new players in any ways. The lack of such a flux is a serious health problem when the game forces collaborative behaviour. Higher level players can help by giving items, cats, powerlevel, etc, but more than helping they will be stealing the gameplay experience.
