That's in the next patch, 1.19.
Was in-game for a while before I crashed and can't get back in but damn it's amazing. New music, shadows and lighting seem better, company buildings are amazing... will make a big blog post this weekend.
Yeah I got to play around for a bit before my crash too. For those that can't get on, they now have new music for select sub areas and they also out right removed music in others (so its quiet). Right now the settlements mainly seem to hubs where you get to sent to for quests rather then starting them. Got a quest in the mining guild to head out to the coffers settlement but I crashed upon teleporting.
All the cities are now decked in the colors of the companies, banners are raised all over the city. Also it looks like they must have done some optimization as my FPS took a jump, shadows are now more fluid and the camera is super fast if you want it to be, it just 'feels' like a different game. Auto-attack only occurs when you have the action bar up and out of passive mode. Basically you stop attacking or dont attack till you bring that bar up. Also they heavily changed the mob redistribution, there are now more mobs all around, and lots of new aggro mobs everywhere. Got attacked by a group of mitelings to the north of Camp Horizon on my lvl 16 Lancer, the place had absolutely zero aggro mobs before, just aldagoats, swarms and doblyns.
Edit: Also the the items you can get from your companies currency are actually very useful, both from a one time stand point (gear) and from consumable standpoint. They have flasks that cut down on weakness, manuals that temporary increase skill gain for crafting and gathering disiciplines, 999 arrow stacks for archer etc.
